Pandora's Gift⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 78| D

6/5

Promising type. Won 12-runner minor event at Southwell (6.1f, 9/4) 78 days ago, always holding on. Already two from three and appears to have been handed a feasible opening mark, so makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 21-1

Forecasts

Pandora's Gift (6/5), Aidan Andabettin (5/1), Mart (9/1), Balon D'or (9/1), Torvar (9/1), Artistic Mission (10/1), Macanudo (12/1), Hearitfortheboys (12/1), Khamsin (18/1), Reprised (22/1), World Of Darcy (33/1), Milliethemollie (66/1)

PANDORA'S GIFT has been impressive on both starts since her debut and she's likely to prove better than a mark of 78, so she's marginally preferred to Reprised, who signed off for Karl Burke with a convincing success at Southwell. Hearitfortheboys has been in excellent form and also merits strong consideration.
