9/1

Fairly useful filly. Too free when well-held fourth of 7 in maiden (2/1) at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) 25 days ago. First-time tongue strap needs to help her get back on track.

Turquoise Diamond²⁸²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: W J Haggas

5/1

100/30, ninth of 11 in novice at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) on debut last autumn but the fact she went off so short in the betting suggests she's thought capable of better by her leading yard.

Form: 9-

Forecasts

Swiss Star (11/10), Ice Cool Harry (7/2), Turquoise Diamond (5/1), Tuki Tuki (9/1), Ardad's Great (9/1), Smalleytime (12/1), Stryder (40/1), Hoodoo (125/1)

SWISS STAR gets the nod to build on an encouraging first run at Windsor. The William Haggas-trained Turquoise Diamond could prove a different proposition to last year's debut and is second choice ahead of the more established Ardad's Great.
