7/2

Foaled February 5. 30,000 gns yearling, Harry Angel filly. Half-sister to 7f winner Chough and winner up to 1¼m First Thought. Fitted with a hood, which is disconcerting, but yard can ready a newcomer and she needs a market check all the same.

12/1

Foaled March 30. Bobby's Kitten filly. Half-sister to 1¾m winner Stagiaire. Represents a leading yard and it will be interesting to see which way she goes in the betting.

Forecasts

Rock Girl (3/1), Expeditious (10/3), Butterfly Effect (10/3), Probable (7/2), Galaxy Gazer (4/1), Elongate (7/1), Spring Day (12/1), Phoenix Glow (18/1), Regal Glory (66/1), La Poderosa (125/1)

This appears to be a good opportunity for BUTTERFLY EFFECT, who didn't look entirely at home on the track when fourth in an Epsom maiden on her latest start in July and she is better judged on her promising debut at Lingfield a month earlier. With previous winners Expeditious and Rock Girl both seemingly vulnerable under their penalties, Galaxy Gazer and newcomer Spring Day may emerge as the main dangers.
