7/1
First run since leaving George Scott when third of 12 at Lingfield (1½m, AW) 23 days ago. Needs to show she's as effective on turf now, while she's also more exposed than most of this opposition.

Improved to make second handicap start a winning one at Chepstow (1m, good to soft) 13 days ago. Up in trip. Likely she has more to offer and even a 7 lb rise may not stop her.

Shaped a bit better than result suggests when 4½ lengths fifth of 9 to reopposing Morrooj in handicap at Chepstow (1m, good to soft) 13 days ago, not knocked about. Step back up in trip may suit.

Best run when third of 10 at Chepstow (1m, good to firm) 27 days ago. Return to 1¼m a help now handicapping and should have more to offer for leading yard.

Fair maiden at best on the Flat. Well held at Lingfield (1¼m, AW) when last seen in March (final start for Seamus Mullins). Likely up against it.

Hasn't improved since switched to handicap company over this trip but it's still relatively early days.

No impact in maidens at up to 1m in recent months but she has quite a good pedigree and is worth keeping an eye on in the market now handicapping over a longer trip.

Forecasts

Morrooj (5/4), Affable (7/2), Bollin Margaret (4/1), Kew Palace (6/1), Filles De Fleur (7/1), Zephyrina (11/1), Ruby Shield (12/1), Mrs Meader (14/1), Lily Beach (50/1)

Verdict

MORROOJ did it pretty readily at Chepstow last time and is selected to make light of a 7 lb rise with further improvement on the cards. Kew Palace appeals as one who is likely to go on to better things in handicaps and looks next best ahead of the Tim Easterby northern-raider Bollin Margaret.
