Fly Pass^p1⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 62

11/2

Runner-up at Chelmsford in June but unable to replicate that form since, respectable fourth of 9 in nursery at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) 9 days ago. Cheekpieces need to perk her up.

Form: 382744

Another Gift⁶^{(ex 6)}

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: Hollie Doyle| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 56| D

6/4

Strong in the betting and improved a chunk when winning 7-runner nursery at Windsor (6f, good) 6 days ago, forging clear. Carries penalty switched to tapeta and she's very much the one to beat.

Form: 97641

Tentatively²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-10| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne| OR: 61

28/1

Backward step when ninth of 11 in maiden at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft, 18/1) 23 days ago. Makes handicap debut and she needs to raise her game.

Form: 869

Mehigburn²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 60

14/1

Never a factor when last 8 of 9 in nursery (22/1) at Musselburgh (5f, good) 26 days ago. Looked ready for 6f.

Form: 6568

11/1

Left on the back foot after an early bump when sixth of 7 in nursery at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft, 7/1) 16 days ago. Back up in trip.

Form: 7376

Rock Lodge^b1²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 53

25/1

Promise on debut but backward steps twice since, last of 10 in maiden at Beverley (5f, soft) 27 days ago. Up in trip now tackling a nursery with first-time headgear on.

Form: 400

Ocean Sound³³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Dylan Hogan| T: J Butler| OR: 50

17/2

Wasn't unbacked but could hardly have achieved less when ninth of 9 in nursery at Nottingham (6.1f, soft) 33 days ago. Makes tapeta debut.

Form: 0759

Mist Of Lir^p¹¹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Stefano Cherchi| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 48

33/1

Already looks pretty exposed, seventh of 9 in nursery at Bath (5f, good, 11/2) 11 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 985747

Budding Poet⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Ray Dawson| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 45

7/2

Seventh of 9 in minor event (80/1) at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) 43 days ago. In good hands for nursery debut and bred to do better as stamina is drawn out.

Form: 487

(3)

Lyndsanda^p³²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-8| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 45

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for first time, fourth of 7 in nursery (16/1) at Bath (5f, good) 32 days ago. Up in trip. Makes tapeta debut.

Forecasts

Another Gift (6/4), Budding Poet (7/2), Charlie Mason (7/2), Fly Pass (11/2), Ocean Sound (17/2), Out Of Line (11/1), Mehigburn (14/1), Lyndsanda (25/1), Rock Lodge (25/1), Tentatively (28/1), Mist Of Lir (33/1)

ANOTHER GIFT powered away from her rivals when making a successful nursery debut last week, and assuming she's as effective on the AW, the follow up looks on the cards under a penalty. The return to 6f will suit Charlie Mason and he's a threat, while Budding Poet achieved very little in his qualifying runs but has been awarded a basement mark as a result and he's in very capable hands.
