2/1

Winner of a heavy-ground 6f novice here at 2 yrs and duly left-key reappearance (pulled hard) behind when landing a Catterick handicap (good) upped to 7f last month. 6 lb rise fair and she probably has more to offer.

Form: 218-51

Unequal Love²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 85

4/6

Showed promise under a considerate ride on debut and improved when outpointing subsequent winner Bishop's Crown in a 6f Leicester maiden (good to firm). Followed up in ready fashion on slower ground at Ripon (6f, good to soft) and further progress likely back up in trip for this handicap bow.

Form: 411

Tellus^t⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 78| BF| D

13/2

Made the frame all 4 starts as a 2-y-o and improved when landing 7f novice events at Catterick and Chelmsford during the spring. However, form has dipped badly the last twice and she now has a bit to prove.

Form: 24-1108

Forecasts

Unequal Love (4/6), Diamond Vega (2/1), Tellus (13/2), Jill Rose (8/1)

UNEQUAL LOVE and Diamond Vega both possess appealing profiles, particularly the former who looks a useful prospect judged on her stylish victories at Leicester and Ripon. The Dutch Art filly is likely to raise her game another notch now moving back up in trip and pitched into a handicap off what could turn out to be a very fair mark. Jill Rose should give a good account but, as an exposed 7-y-o, she may struggle to keep tabs on the aforementioned, progressive 3-y-os.
