40/1

Cheekpieces on for first time, first run since leaving G. M. Lyons when eleventh of 14 in handicap (25/1) at Bath (8f, soft) 39 days ago. Blinkers back on and she needs to leave that low-key stable debut behind.

Forecasts

Book Of Tales (9/4), Edwina Sheeran (9/2), Kilcummin (9/2), Ski Jump (11/2), Philos (6/1), American Oak (12/1), Stelios (22/1), Heart Of Acklam (28/1), Monophonic (40/1)

BOOK OF TALES has failed to meet market expectations on his last 2 runs but it's still early days and this looks a good opportunity for him back on turf. Philos might not be totally straightforward but can be a factor at this level, with Edwina Sheeran completing the shortlist.
