Tareekh²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: R A Fahey| OR: 73| D

7/4

Off the mark in a 6f Thirsk maiden last month and followed up in competitive Rous seller at York (6f, good) 25 days ago. An opening mark of 73 looks lenient with further progress likely.

Form: 8411

Pink Storm⁴⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 70

14/1

Third over 5f on first 2 starts. Failed to stay 7f on testing ground at Haydock since and drop to 6f promises to suit on nursery debut.

Form: 334

(2)

Eternal Glory²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: B A Curtis| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 66

8/1

Better with each start, proving suited by the step up to 6f when second of 10 in novice at Carlisle 22 days ago. Respected for leading stable.

Form: 652

(3)

Zwift^p1²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 65

17/2

Hasn't gone from her debut but perhaps that'll change now handicapping in cheekpieces.

Form: 359

(5)

Bonita B²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Tom Marquand| T: M R Channon| OR: 64

9/2

Ran best race to date when third of 8 in maiden at Brighton (6f, good) 21 days ago, but an opening handicap mark of 64 demands more.

Form: 8553

(7)

Edinson Kevani²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 64

10/1

Modest form. Good 2½ lengths fourth of 20 to Tareekh in Rous seller at York (6f, good) 25 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts but may struggle to turn tables on Richard Fahey's charge.

Form: 23664

(8)

Bearcardi^p1²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: J L Eyre| OR: 61

12/1

Modest form to date. Didn't stay 7.5f at Beverley last time and this drop back in trip should suit now switching his attention to handicaps.

Form: 8396

(1)

Clodovea¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 58

6/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Showed a bit when sixth to Tareekh in Rous seller at York and perhaps found run coming too soon when well held over C&D 9 days later.

Form: 469

Forecasts

Tareekh (7/4), Bonita B (9/2), Clodovea (6/1), Eternal Glory (8/1), Zwift (17/2), Edinson Kevani (10/1), Bearcardi (12/1), Pink Storm (14/1)

There should be more to come from TAREEKH who can make light of an opening handicap mark of 73 and complete a hat-trick. Mark Johnston's Carlisle runner-up Eternal Glory may provide the main threat ahead of Edinson Kevani who was behind the selection at York last time.
