8/11

No Nay Never filly who made an impressive winning debut in 10-runner novice event at Wolverhampton in March and wasn't disgraced tried in the Nell Gwyn at Newmarket next time. Can double her account back in calmer waters.

Form: 16

Glory Lily¹¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: C Appleby| D

6/1

Winning debut at Lingfield in December and, while she failed to back it up in Meydan next time, she remains with potential having been given some time off.

Form: 1-5

Via Corone^h²⁰⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: K Stott| T: C Appleby| D

6/1

bred to be useful and justified short odds to make a successful debut at Kempton 6 months ago. Open to improvement but others have achieved more in form terms.

Form: 1-

Just A Notion²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Saffie Osborne| T: E Walker

66/1

Cost six figures as a yearling and showed something to work on when fifth at Redcar on debut 3 weeks ago. This is a stronger race, though, so she'll need to find marked improvment.

Form: 5

Ronni Scott

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden

5/1

Frankel filly. Half-sister to winner up to 7f Main Target. Dam, 1m-1¼m (Prix de la Nonette) winner, half-sister to very smart 9f-10.5f winner Izzi Top. Makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Sea Of Thieves¹⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: E Walker

66/1

Offered mild encouragement in a novice at Kempton 178 days ago but probably won't come into her own until handicapping.

Form: 6-

Tajalat²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Kyle Strydom| T: R Varian

14/1

Half-sister to three winners and shaped quite nicely in a maiden at Yarmouth first time out, running on well. More to come and can't be completely dismissed.

GIRL RACER looked an excellent prospect when scoring on debut at Wolverhampton and the fact that she was tried in the Nell Gwyn next time indicates that she's held in quite high regard, so she's worth a chance to resume winning ways. Ronni Scott is worthy of interest based on her excellent pedigree and top connections.
