Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in minor event at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 28/1) 14 days ago, doing too much too soon. Cheekpieces on 1st time for this nursery debut and he's high on the shortlist.

5/1

Career best when winning 8-runner maiden at this course (5f, good to firm, 7/2) 30 days ago. Step up to 6f unlikely to be an issue and she's one to consider off what looks a fair opening mark.

7/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 15 in maiden at Newbury (6f, firm, 18/1) 35 days ago. Opening mark fair enough and she's worth a second look.

Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Improvement by no means impossible now making the switch to a nursery.

Forecasts

Mediate Alexander (7/2), Grey Gray (5/1), Rising Force (11/2), Forever A Diamond (7/1), States (7/1), Defying Orders (8/1), Part Time Britain (10/1), Seven Aces (12/1), Line Of Fire (16/1), Diddy Man (18/1), Land Of Magic (25/1), Moreginplease (40/1)

STATES was always going to struggle in a Class 2 novice at Salisbury a fortnight ago and it would be no surprise were he to get back on track here, with his sights lowered and the addition of cheekpieces a potentially good move. Grey Gray is an obvious threat on the back of a deserved breakthrough success over 5f at this course last month, while Seven Aces could be seen in a better light now that she ventures down the nursery route. Mediate Alexander also enters calculations.
