Once More For Luck¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: I Mohammed

66/1

Kodiac colt who built on debut promise to open his account at Ffos Las 11 days ago. Didn't have a great deal to spare, though, and lacks the scope of some of these rivals.

Form: 71

(16)

Miami Girl²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 93| D

13/2

Impressive debut win at Newmarket and, having had excuses in listed company next time, was firmly back on track at Windsor 3 weeks ago. Remains with potential and loos ideal sort for this race.

Form: 1851

(1)

Swift Asset¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| D

9/1

Confirmed debut promise when readily off the mark at Windsor last time and stable has a good record in this race, so deserves respect even with a bit to find.

Form: 51

(21)

Eddie's Boy^p¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 96| D

15/2

Debut Southwell scorer who took his form up a notch in first-time cheekpieces when third of 24 to Little Big Bear in Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot. Solid third in listed event at Sandown since, so likely to be on the premises.

Form: 1233

(2)

Agostino³⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Jim Crowley| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 70

100/1

Just modest form to date so, while he's bred to do better at some point, he's not a player in this.

Form: 343

(20)

Safari Dream¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: R Coakley| T: B R Millman

28/1

Good looker who has been better than the result on both starts to date, meeting trouble behind Swift Asset at Windsor last time. Not completely discounted for all he has something to find.

Form: 23

(13)

Michaela's Boy^b¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: George Rooke| T: R Hughes| OR: 80| BF| D

100/1

Winning debut at Windsor in April. Limitations exposed since, though, and others are more persuasive in this competitive event.

Form: 14433

(7)

Armour Propre²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| BF

25/1

Promising sort who stepped forward from her debut when a narrow second in a maiden at Carlisle last time. Needs to be much improved to compete in this.

Form: 42

(3)

Not For Profit³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: P J McDonald| T: D O'Meara| D

50/1

Stepped forward from his debut when landing a novice at Hamilton from the front a month ago. Potential for better still, but this might be a step too far.

Form: 61

(19)

Dare To Hope³⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 86| BF| D

11/1

Promising debut winner of 8-runner novice at Nottingham in April and only just touched off bidding to defy a penalty at Ripon a month ago. Could feature with another improved showing.

Form: 12

(11)

Maria Branwell³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: K Shoemark| T: D O'Meara| OR: 100| D

9/4

Won her first two outings, then upped her form to finish an excellent third in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot a month ago. Strongly-run nature of this race should play to her strengths, and she looks the one to beat.

Form: 113

(9)

Looking For Lynda⁵⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 80| D

33/1

Confirmed debut promise when readily landing 5-runner novice at Nottingham (5f, good) in May but disappointed at York subsequently. Has been given a break since.

Form: 216

(18)

Rogue Spirit²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: J Mitchell| T: Tom Clover| OR: 91| D

4/1

Dark Angel col who justified support to make a winning debut at Beverley in May and built on that when caught dying strides in conditions' event there next time. Easily doubled his tally last time and looks a major player.

Form: 121

(14)

Galore⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: David Egan| T: R Hannon

125/1

Mild signs of encouragement so far but lacks the quality to feature in this.

Form: 55

(17)

Run Cmc¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Theodore Ladd| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 74| D

150/1

Left previous form behind when scoring at Musselburgh 17 days ago but he's unlikely to be good enough for this level of race.

Form: 981

(8)

Woolhampton²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: T E Whelan| T: B R Millman| OR: 74

80/1

Left debut form well behind when runner-up in a course maiden in June but failed to back it up in a novice here last time. Others make more appeal.

Form: 925

(10)

Desert Illusion²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: Collen Storey| T: I Mohammed

200/1

Just modest form to date, so looks well out of her depth.

Form: 84

(5)

Union Court³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-6| J: David Probert| T: E Walker| OR: 80| D

7/1

Impressive winner of her first 2 starts, then far from disgraced when ninth behind Little Big Bear in Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot a month ago. May do better still.

Form: 119

(15)

Claretina¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-4| J: J Quinn| T: R A Fahey| OR: 68| BF

100/1

Well related and already has a win under her belt at Carlisle. Bit better than the result at Ripon last time but this requires a marked step forward.

Form: 315

(12)

Land Of Summer²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-4| J: Hayley Turner| T: R Hannon| OR: 83| D

22/1

Cheap purchase who got the hang of things sufficiently enough late on to make a winning start at Brighton (5.2f) in late April. Ran to a similar level in defeat under a penalty at Kempton but out of depth in the Albany last time.

Form: 120

Forecasts

Maria Branwell (9/4), Rogue Spirit (4/1), Miami Girl (13/2), Union Court (7/1), Eddie's Boy (15/2), Swift Asset (9/1), Dare To Hope (11/1), Land Of Summer (22/1), Armour Propre (25/1), Safari Dream (28/1), Looking For Lynda (33/1), Not For Profit (50/1), Asian Queen (50/1), Once More For Luck (66/1), Woolhampton (80/1), Michaela's Boy (100/1), Claretina (100/1), Agostino (100/1), Galore (125/1), Run Cmc (150/1), Desert Illusion (200/1)

MARIA BRANWELL's third in the Queen Mary is the best piece of form on show and further improvement can't be ruled out from this likeable filly, so she gets the marginal vote ahead of Rogue Spirit, whose penultimate outing (when second at Beverley) is proving to be very strong form. Miami Girl deserves plenty of respect as the pick of the Richard Hannon-trained contingent.
