10/11

Promising runner-up effort at Ffos Las in April and made the most of a good opportunity at Uttoxeter since. Should be more to come from this mare.

Merry Berry²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Liam Harrison⁽⁵⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 111

10/11

Has really found her feet this spring, narrowly denied on Exeter handicap debut in April before scoring in convincing fashion at Huntingdon. Should give Barely Famous plenty to think about.

Forecasts

Merry Berry (10/11), Barely Famous (10/11)

There's little between BARELY FAMOUS and Merry Berry on the figures, the fact the former has the greater scope for further progress after only 3 starts just tipping things in her favour.
