Abhayaa¹⁷⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Eddy Hardouin| T: Mlle C Fey| D

40/1

Useful filly. 6¼ lengths eighth of 12 to Tranquil Lady in Prix de Flore (19/1) at Saint-Cloud (10.4f, heavy) when last seen in October. Back down in trip and this French raider is likely to find a few too good.

Don't Tell Claire^p1¹⁵⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 88| D

33/1

Useful mare. Latest win at Newmarket in October. 11/1, bit below form 6¾ lengths eighth of 14 to Juncture in listed race at Dundalk (8f). Off 157 days and cheekpieces on for 1st time. Looks up against it.

Form: 632018-

Inishnee²¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: James Doyle| T: W McCreery| OR: 99| D

33/1

Useful filly. 17/1, 1½ lengths third of 8 to Gregarina in listed race at Longchamp (8f, good). Off 7 months ahead of this first run for yard after leaving M. Delcher Sanchez. No more than an each-way squeak.

Form: 418033-

Laurel¹⁹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 112| CD

8/13

Promising type. C&D winner. Two wins from 3 runs last year. 9/1, ¾-length second of 9 to Fonteyn in Sun Chariot Stakes at Newmarket (8f, good) on final start of 2022. The one to beat.

Form: 112-

Life Of Dreams¹⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 100

6/1

Useful filly. Below form 8½ lengths ninth of 17 to Something Enticing in listed race (11/2) at Doncaster (10.2f, heavy). Off 156 days and down in trip for this polytrack debut. Solid each-way chance.

Form: 12539-

(7)

Lightship⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: K P De Foy| OR: 83| CD

11/1

Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at this C&D (11/8) 47 days ago, easily. Open to improvement but this represents a significant step up in class.

Form: 94-411

(1)

Magnificence^t¹⁷¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: Brian O'Rourke| OR: 78

200/1

80/1, seventh of 13 in handicap at Newbury (7f, heavy), unsuited by way race developed. Off 171 days. Readily passed over.

Form: 0/57707-

Sound Angela²⁰⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 100| C| D

10/3

Useful filly. Course winner. One win from 2 runs last year. Creditable 1¼ lengths fourth of 13 to Shaara in listed race (7/2) at Yarmouth (10.1f, good), slowly away. Off 6 months and back down in trip. Live each-way chance.

Form: 411/144-

(2)

Tango Tonight²⁰⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Morrison| OR: 76

50/1

Fairly useful filly. Good second of 6 in handicap at Sandown (8f, heavy, 5/1) on final run of last season. Surely biting off more than she can chew at this level.

Form: 93/2142-

Forecasts

Laurel (8/13), Sound Angela (10/3), Life Of Dreams (6/1), Lightship (11/1), Don't Tell Claire (33/1), Inishnee (33/1), Abhayaa (40/1), Tango Tonight (50/1), Magnificence (200/1)

It's hard to look beyond LAUREL, who was impressive when winning novice events on her first 2 starts before going close in the Sun Chariot at Newmarket during the autumn. She possesses the potential to develop into a top filly this season and should have little trouble dispatching with these rivals. Sound Angela and Life of Dreams can fill the places.
