Little Girl Blue²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: W G M Turner

10/1

Twice-raced winner. Won 4-runner maiden at Bath (5f, good to firm, 10/1) 23 days ago, always holding on after leading 1f out. Should stay this far but this will be tougher under a penalty.

Form: 61

Infinite Appeal²⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman

50/1

Twice-raced maiden. Little show in maiden/minor event last year and looks hard to fancy after 8 months off.

Form: 90-

Ischia^h1³³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe

11/1

No promise in pair of starts last year, last of 8 in maiden at Leicester (6f, good). Off 11 months. Hooded for 1st time.

Form: 08-

Leaf Motif

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: H & R Charlton

13/8

Bated Breath filly. Sister to useful 2-y-o 6f winner Partitia and half-sister to 11f/1½m winner Palmetto Bay and useful winner up to 7f Angel Palm. From a leading Juddmonte family on dam-side and looks an interesting newcomer.

Love Trophy Power¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 73

10/11

Placed on all 4 starts and has reached a fair level without progressing from debut. Disappointing over 7f at Thirsk last time but she should go close if running to form.

Form: 32-23

Forecasts

Love Trophy Power (10/11), Leaf Motif (13/8), Ikkari (3/1), Little Girl Blue (10/1), Ischia (11/1), Infinite Appeal (50/1)

IKKARI shaped promisingly at Wolverhampton on debut and is given another chance to show the anticipated improvement here. Love Trophy Power perhaps possesses less scope for progression than the selection but is a serious threat on her best form, whilst Leaf Motif is an interesting debutante.
