4/6
Time Test filly who shaped well when a debut fourth of 17 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to firm, 9/2) 21 days ago. That form rates the pick here so she's the one to beat with more to come.

Forecasts

Mercury Day (4/6), Bubbles Wonky (5/2), Last Applause (7/2), Goldingreatstore (9/2), Triple Force (25/1), Borderline Boss (50/1), Apache Angel (250/1)

Verdict

Ralph Beckett's Time Test filly MERCURY DAY made a promsing start when fourth in a big-field Newmarket maiden and looks the way to go here. Redcar-fourth Bubbles Wonky also has better days ahead of him and rates the chief threat, with Goldingreatstore and Last Applause both in the mix too in a fair juvenile novice.

  1. Mercury Day4/6
  2. Bubbles Wonky5/2
  3. Goldingreatstore9/2
