5/6

Thrice-raced maiden. Evens and hooded for 1st time, third of 9 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good) 24 days ago. Doesn't look especially progressive, but obvious chance here all the same.

Form: 333

17/2

Foaled April 5. €77,000 2-y-o, More Than Ready filly. Half-sister to useful US 6f winner Tulane Tryst, runner-up in US Grade 3 6f event. Yard can ready a newcomer and it'll be interesting to see what the market has to say.

My Roxanne

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison

40/1

Foaled March 4. €36,000 yearling, James Garfield filly. Half-sister to 7f/1m winner First Link. Dam, useful French 8.5f winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m-1½m winner (stayed 1¾m) Barsanti. Yard's newcomers typically come on for a run.

Our Delia

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe

40/1

Foaled March 2. Acclamation filly. Yard is hardly synonymous with winning newcomers and, chances are, she'll be better for the run.

Rockin Rosa¹¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr

150/1

Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 10 in maiden at Redcar (6f, good to soft, 28/1) on debut, very slowly away. Off 113 days and hard to warm to here on the back of that display.

Form: 7

The Angelus Belle

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara

25/1

Foaled April 11. £35,000 yearling, Dandy Man filly. Half-sister to useful winner up to 1m Annie Fior and winner up to 9f Mitch. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 1m-1¼m winner Kookaburra. Worth a second look in the betting.

Form:

(9)

Unrequited Love

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan

9/2

Foaled January 23. No Nay Never filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Bebhinn and US 5f-7f winner Stella Performance, both useful. Represents top northern yard and confidence behind her in the betting would look significant.

Form:

(4)

Vixey

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Paula Muir⁽³⁾| T: C W Fairhurst

150/1

Foaled May 5. 4,000 gns yearling, Cable Bay filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 1¼m-1½m winner Vanishing and 1m winner Velma. Dam unraced. Limited appeal on paper and likely to need more time and distance.

Verbasca

Weight: 9-2| Age: 2

T: T D Easterby J: D Allan

Forecasts

Chasseral (5/6), Unrequited Love (9/2), Moralisa (8/1), More Than Desire (17/2), Calluna (9/1), Verbasca (18/1), Forever Proud (22/1), The Angelus Belle (25/1), My Roxanne (40/1), Our Delia (40/1), Vixey (150/1), Rockin Rosa (150/1)

All but two of these are newcomers and it'll be interesting to see how the market shapes up. UNREQUITED LOVE ticks plenty of the right boxes on paper and is taken to make a winning start to her career. The form of Chasseral's Newmarket debut third is solid, but it's fair to say that she hasn't managed to build on that in two subsequent starts. That said, she is greatly respected and is next on the list ahead of Moralisa and More Than Desire, both of whom are appealing on paper.
