Promising sort. 7/2, better effort when second of 9 in maiden at Catterick (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago, no match for winner. Likely to improve further and looks the one to beat..

Forecasts

Close Quarters (11/10), Mas Poder (10/3), Theoretical (5/1), Frisky (11/1), Grantley Hall (14/1), Hotter In Time (14/1), Iconicdaay (20/1), Spear Fir (40/1)

Verdict

CLOSE QUARTERS improved from her debut when second at Catterick 11 days ago, and is very much the one to beat with still more to come. Mas Poder would be a danger if reproducing her debut form but she's been well below that level in 3 starts since. Iconicdaay was a cheap purchase, but she's out of a 2-y-o 5f winner, and any market support should be noted.

  1. Close Quarters11/10
  2. Mas Poder10/3
  3. Iconicdaay20/1
