15/8

Promising type. 6/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, second of 7 in minor event at Lingfield (1m) 16 days ago, needing stiffer test. Type to do better again and rates the chief threat to At A Pinch.

Form: 822

66/1

Forecasts

At A Pinch (5/6), Barshaa (15/8), Asamosa (13/2), Purple Ribbon (10/1), My Jeanie Rai (33/1), Balqaa (50/1), Hot Romance (66/1), Salonniere (200/1)

AT A PINCH was unable to confirm the form she showed at listed level previously but was far from discredited when runner-up in a Newbury novice (1m) in June and she's fancied to come out on top returning from a short break. Barshaa has shown plenty herself and comfortably rates the chief threat, ahead of newcomer Purple Ribbon.
