French Red^p⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 49

17/2

Runner-up twice last month. Not quite in the same form when fourth 3¾ lengths fourth to reopposing Oriental Lilly over 6f here last week but still much respected now stepping up to 7f for first time.

Forecasts

Oriental Lilly (5/2), Bawaader (10/3), Oh So Hot (4/1), Amelia R (5/1), French Red (17/2), Zenzero (14/1), Jems Bond (16/1), Lucky Violet (18/1), The Mackem Torpedo (20/1), New Look (33/1), Heer Me (100/1), Garnock Valley (125/1), Lady Artela (125/1), Griffin Street (150/1)

The drop back in trip looks a good move for the front-running OH SO HOT who might be able to dominate this field from the inside stall. Fellow 3-y-o French Red is feared most ahead of last week's penalised course scorer Oriental Lilly.
