Fuente Ovejuna³⁴

5/2

Thrice-raced winner. 33/1, 14 lengths fifth of 7 to Albahr in listed race at Salisbury (8f, good) 34 days ago. No great surprise were she to get back on track now that her sights are lowered.

Signorina Merisi¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Beasley| T: M R Channon| OR: 77

3/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Excellent second of 9 in nursery (15/2) at Thirsk (8f, good) 19 days ago, running on. 4 lb rise for that improved effort is fair enough and she's high on the shortlist.

Form: 8682

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 8 in maiden at Newcastle (7.1f, 9/1) 17 days ago. Improvement is possible now that she's pitched into a nursery, but it's certainly needed.

12/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 5/1, fifth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 12 days ago. Needs to raise her game now that she goes down the nursery route.

9/4

Lightly-raced winner. 15/8, didn't need to improve to win 9-runner maiden at Lingfield (7f, AW) 29 days ago by ½ length from Trans Montana. Merits respect on nursery debut.

Form: 3221

8/1

Winner at Musselburgh in August. 80/1, creditable fourth of 11 in nursery at Haydock (7.2f, firm) 11 days ago, having run of race. Definite chance off the same mark here.

Forecasts

Turn Back Time (9/4), Fuente Ovejuna (5/2), Signorina Merisi (3/1), Bungley (8/1), Trans Montana (12/1), My Silent Song (14/1)

SIGNORINA MERISI improved when going close on this month's nursery debut at Thirsk and, if able to build on that, she could be the answer. Bungley put in a good shift at Haydock recently and a repeat of that would put her firmly in the picture, while Turn Back Time got her head in front last time and also has claims. However. Fuente Ovejuna has her sights lowered here and is feared most.
