Real Terms⁷³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: B A Curtis| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 69

6/1

Thrice-raced filly. 14/1, third of 11 in minor event at Newcastle (8f) 73 days ago, staying on strongly, perhaps unlucky not to win. Good chance if she takes to the surface.

Form: 733-

Eleven Eleven²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Joey Haynes| T: I Furtado

17/2

Third of 6 in maiden at this C&D (10/1) on debut 27 days ago, going with zest on the surface. Should improve.

Form: 3

Olympic Theatre¹⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Cieren Fallon| T: M L W Bell| OR: 71

10/11

Fair maiden, placed 4 of 6 starts at up to 10f on turf last season. Not out of this if taking to new surface on first run for 5 months.

Form: 323424-

Secret Glow^t¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: J Mitchell| T: S & E Crisford

7/1

Useful pedigree but just a modest start in Lingfield event over this trip on debut 19 days ago when tongue tied. Should improve.

Form: 6

(4)

Dabirstar⁸¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Harrison Shaw| T: K R Burke

4/1

Much improved from debut when second of 8 in maiden (9/1) at this course (6.1f) 81 days ago, just failing to deny long odds-on rival. This longer trip will suit and she's got leading claims.

Form: 22-

Forecasts

Olympic Theatre (10/11), Dabirstar (4/1), Real Terms (6/1), Secret Glow (7/1), Eleven Eleven (17/2)

DABIRSTAR made a long odds-on winner pull out all the stops here just before Christmas, taking well to the surface in the process, and she could be hard to beat if improving again with this longer trip likely to suit. Real Terms is feared most ahead of Olympic Theatre.
