Forecasts

Bulldog Drummond (5/2), Quercine (3/1), Sommelier (9/2), Gamblers Kitty (6/1), Graceful Mary (9/1), Shop Local (9/1), Edergole's Gift (18/1), Sky Blue Dreams (22/1), Katie G (40/1), Hagaawy (300/1)

Verdict

GRACEFUL MARY appeals on paper and hails from a yard that can ready its newcomers so this Blue Point filly is taken to go in at the first time of asking from Bulldog Drummond, who holds the clear edge on form but has to shrug off a below-par showing at Lingfield. Edergole's Gift also enters calculations on the back of her good Brighton second along with debutantes Quercine and Sky Blue Dreams.
