5/2

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 5 in nursery at Chelmsford City (5f, 4/1) 42 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and likely to find one or two too good once more.

Form: 99855

(3)

Aljadel²⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 63| D

14/1

Lightly-raced winner. Successful at Lingfield in August. Eighth of 10 in nursery at Newmarket (7f, good to firm, 80/1) 26 days ago. Now 3 lb lower in a far less competitive race and she may well get back on track.

Form: 9718

(6)

Rukaana³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: B A Curtis| T: C Hills| OR: 63

3/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 12 in minor event at Kempton (7f, 66/1) 34 days ago. In good hands and needs a second look now pitched into a nursery.

Form: 789

(8)

Madame Christine³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: J Fanning| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 62

9/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1, sixth of 9 in nursery at Catterick (7f, soft) 33 days ago. Others more persuasive on balance.

Form: 64306

Compton Bay¹⁹

6/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1, seventh of 11 in nursery at this course (8.6f) 19 days ago. Dropping back in trip looks a good move and he's not discounted.

Form: 4037

150/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 11 in nursery (33/1) at Leicester (6f, good) 31 days ago. Others preferred.

50/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f, 66/1) 26 days ago. Blinkers applied for this handicap debut and worth a peek in the betting.

Form: 077

Forecasts

Cuban Harry (5/2), Rukaana (3/1), Professor Tickle (11/2), Compton Bay (6/1), Madame Christine (9/1), Asian Tide (11/1), Aljadel (14/1), Krysdanjord (28/1), Dylan's Ashes (50/1), Timely Chance (150/1)

CUBAN HARRY could be the answer to this open-looking nursery. He wasn't beaten far when blinkered for his all-weather/nursery debut at Lingfield 3 weeks ago and perhaps the more severe headgear enlisted here may help eke out a bit more. Compton Bay probably found the 8.6f trip too much of a test here recently and he is feared back at 7f, while Professor Tickle is third choice ahead of Aljadel.
