13/2

Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 13 in minor event (100/1) at Kempton (7f) on debut 17 days ago. Should have benefited from that initial experience.

Form: 7

22/1

Epaulette gelding. Dam, maiden (raced at 6.7f-1½m), half-sister to useful/temperamental winner up to 1m George Cinq. Doesn't make much appeal on paper.

Taylored (6/5), Waltzing Queen (3/1), Diffident Spirit (4/1), Power Em (13/2), Bluebird Day (8/1), Scrappy Jack (22/1)

TAYLORED made a positive start for his new stable when runner-up at Beverley recently and, with a fitness edge over his main rival Waltzing Queen, he should take the beating. Diffident Spirit could also make an impression if he's improved for a gelding operation.
