2/1
Thrice-raced maiden. 6/1, fifth of 9 in nursery at Lingfield (7f, good), unable to sustain effort. Off 7 months. Bred to do better, so worth considering if market speaks in her favour.

Sixth of 8 in handicap (9/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 29 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes turf debut. Hasn't been to best effect the last twice, so hard to completely dismiss.

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 6 in handicap (11/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 15 days ago. Back down in trip. Makes turf debut. Strong claims if back to the form she showed on penultimate start.

Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 13 in handicap (5/2) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 21 days ago. Looks limited on all known evidence, though latest SP suggests he's thought capable of better.

Forecasts

Bahia Star (2/1), Little Sunflower (11/4), React (7/2), Spirituoso (15/2), Hooves Like Jagger (17/2), Nozieres (11/1), Paige's Raptor (66/1), Lady Susie (125/1)

Verdict

LITTLE SUNFLOWER stayed on strongly after conceding first run to the winner at Lingfield last time and, provided she's fully effective on turf, she's capable of going one better in a moderate contest. Spirituoso, though seemingly amiss on her latest outing, remains of interest based on her penultimate run, so she's the main danger.

  1. LITTLE SUNFLOWER
  2. SPIRITUOSO
  3. NOZIERES
