Cotai Hero¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: James Doyle| T: E Walker| OR: 71

5/6

Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1, respectable fifth of 9 in nursery at Ffos Las (6f, good to soft) 12 days ago, not ideally placed. Step up to 7f should suit and he's the one to beat eased in grade here.

Form: 44465

(2)

Lark Lane¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: George Bass⁽⁵⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 57

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 6 in nursery (6/1) at Brighton (8f, good) 15 days ago. No easy task on these terms.

Form: 87884

(1)

Speedtail³²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: David Egan| T: J S Moore

7/1

Once-raced maiden. 25/1, fourth of 11 in seller at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) on debut 32 days ago. That effort wasn't completely devoid of promise, but significant step forward needed here.

Form: 4

(5)

Act Of Passion³³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: K Stott| T: M Dods

7/2

Twice-raced winner. 20/1, won 12-runner seller at Redcar (6f, good) 33 days ago, slowly away. Moving up in trip shouldn't be an issue and she's one of the likelier winners.

Form: 81

(7)

Alaskan Wind³²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Saffie Osborne⁽⁵⁾| T: J A Osborne| OR: 65| BF

7/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 4/1, seventh of 11 in seller at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Would be a danger to all at this level if reproducing the form of her Chepstow near miss 3 starts back.

Form: 7267

(3)

Mimi's Odyssey^b1⁴⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Marco Ghiani| T: W Muir & C Grassick

50/1

Twice-raced maiden. 66/1, last of 10 in maiden at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 47 days ago. Hopes pinned on drop in grade/fitting of blinkers helping to spark sudden progress.

Form: 90

Falmouth Ballerina²⁰

Weight: 8-7| Age: 2

T: J Tickle J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Cotai Hero (5/6), Act Of Passion (7/2), Speedtail (7/1), Alaskan Wind (7/1), Lark Lane (20/1), Falmouth Ballerina (33/1), Mimi's Odyssey (50/1)

Though COTAI HERO hasn't managed to build on his initial promise switched to nurseries of late, he wasn't disgraced at Ffos Las recently and the combination of this increase in trip and drop in grade should pave the way for a first career success. Act of Passion left her debut well behind when landing a Redcar seller and she is likely to emerge as the main danger. Alaskan Wind is best of the rest.
