11/10

Built on debut promise when ready winner of 15-runner C&D maiden last month but not up to the task in the Albany at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago. This is way easier and she has strong claims.

Form: 310

Perfect Spring¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| BF

12/1

Oasis Dream filly who shaped with plenty of encouragement when mid-field at Goodwood (6f) on debut but was unable to justify favouritism at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) since, possibly finding the race coming too soon. Worth another chance.

Form: 63

5/1

Goken filly who showed a bit when fifth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (6f, AW) on debut last month. Could well take a step forward with that under her belt.

Forecasts

Mapmaker (11/10), Indication Dream (9/2), Xaarine (5/1), Belle Flora (9/1), Tayala (9/1), Perfect Spring (12/1), Thunderous Love (20/1), Nancy Rose (25/1), Ritzy (25/1), Brinton (33/1)

The market will no doubt provide clues with regard to the newcomers, but MAPMAKER won over C&D second time up and having been flying too high at Royal Ascot since, Darryll Holland's charge is fancied to get back to winning ways. Second choice is Xaarine, who offered something to work on when mid-field at Lingfield last month, while Perfect Spring and Indication Dream can fight out minor honours.
