Unibet Thanks The Frontline Workers Fillies' Handicap

Off time: 17:20 | Winning time: 1m 39.37s

(12)

Delicate Kiss²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Aled Beech⁽⁵⁾| T: J J Bridger| OR: 79| CD

18/1

C&D winner. Good second of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Sandown (8f, good to firm) 28 days ago. That represented a step back in the right direction but this 7 lb higher AW mark is probably beyond her.

Form: 175962

(6)

Lethal Talent¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Tyler Saunders⁽⁵⁾| T: J G Portman| OR: 80| C

18/1

Course winner. 22/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f) 17 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 236270

(7)

Taawfan³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Dane O'Neill| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 80| BF| D

9/2

Winner at Windsor in July. 10/11, fifth of 7 in handicap there (8.1f, good to firm) 32 days ago, slowly away. Reportedly 'moved poorly' on that occasion and she's worth another chance.

Form: 215

(8)

Secret Return¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: A Kirby| T: R Brisland| OR: 74| D

22/1

Latest win at Bath in July. 10/1, last of 7 in handicap at Salisbury (8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. One of the more exposed contenders and she looks vulnerable.

Form: 88-7107

(3)

Nehaall²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 79

3/1

Lightly-raced winner. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Sandown (7f, good to firm, 9/1) 28 days ago, nearest finish. This trip should be within range but she needs to find some improvement.

Form: 2-1725

(9)

Maurimo⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽³⁾| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 78| CD

6/1

C&D winner. 10/1, sixth of 9 in minor event at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 41 days ago, not knocked about. That form looks pretty decent and she's of strong interest back here on handicap debut.

Form: 8-16

(5)

Ice Eagle²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: E Walker| OR: 75

6/1

Winner at Redcar in July. Third of 13 in minor event (11/2) at this course (7f) 23 days ago. More needed but she's hardly exposed and may do better now pitched into a handicap.

Form: 913

(2)

Perfect Rose⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Bentley| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 75

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to soft, 8/1) 54 days ago. Others have achieved more.

Form: 32-57

(11)

Reemannie²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 75

9/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 11 in maiden (9/4) at Hamilton (9.2f, good to soft) 22 days ago. In good hands and it will be disappointing if there's not better to come now moving into a handicap.

Form: 646

(13)

Lehwaiyla⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Louis Steward| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 73| D

9/1

Won 5-runner maiden at Bath (8f, good to firm, evens) 44 days ago. Probably didn't beat much there but, as a well-bred filly from the Sir Michael Stoute yard, she merits respect on handicap debut.

Form: 351

(1)

Reponse Exacte^h¹⁸²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J Mackie| OR: 65

50/1

6/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 6 months and others possess more appealing profiles.

Form: 387-775

(10)

Willingly²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M D I Usher| OR: 61

22/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, third of 11 in minor event at Leicester (8.2f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Makes handicap debut and big step forward needed.

Form: 043

Non-Runners

Strict Tempo²⁸

Weight: 9-12| Age: 4

T: A M Balding J: Oisin Murphy

Forecasts

Nehaall (3/1), Taawfan (9/2), Ice Eagle (6/1), Maurimo (6/1), Lehwaiyla (9/1), Reemannie (9/1), Strict Tempo (10/1), Perfect Rose (16/1), Lethal Talent (18/1), Delicate Kiss (18/1), Willingly (22/1), Secret Return (22/1), Reponse Exacte (50/1)

MAURIMO wasn't disgraced under a penalty in a decent Newmarket novice last time and, back at the scene of her maiden success in June, she may well resume her progress off what looks a fair opening mark. Ice Eagle, Lehwaiyla and Reemannie are other interesting handicap debutantes, particularly the last-named, while Strict Tempo didn't get the rub of the green last time and also enters calculations.
