British Stallion Studs EBF Fillies' Handicap

4YO plus | Class 3 | 1m 75y | 4 Runners | Turf

(4)

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: G G Margarson| OR: 90| D

Useful mare who scored over 1m at Ascot (soft) and 7f at Yarmouth last summer. Ended her 2023 campaign with good thirds at Ascot (handicap/listed) but operating some way below best in pair of handicaps so far this spring. Ease in class a plus at least.

Form: 1033-00

Dora Milaje³⁰⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 84| D

Winner on sole start at 2 yrs and improved to defy a penalty on return at Thirsk (1m) last June. Progressed again despite losing unbeaten record when third on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m) a month later and whilst absent since, possible she can do better still as a 4-y-o.

Form: 1/13-

Mother Mary²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J Ferguson| OR: 82

Salisbury novice winner (at 7f) who produced a career best when third on handicap debut at Pontefract (1m) in September, looking well served by the increase in trip. Entitled to strip fitter for her return at Kempton (1m) 24 days ago and she could yet do better in handicaps.

Form: 3123-8

Roarin' Success¹²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: T E Whelan| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 80| D

Continued theme of race-by-race progress when successful on her seasonal return at Ascot (1m) last July. Disappointed on 2 of her 3 starts thereafter but conditions will hold no fears and fact she's gone well fresh is interesting.

Form: 41/1035-

Forecasts

Mother Mary (7/4), Dora Milaje (11/4), Roarin' Success (3/1), Farhh To Shy (4/1)

MOTHER MARY ended last season with a good third on handicap debut at Pontefract and entitled to be sharper for her reappearance at listed level, she earns the vote to come out on top with conditions posing no fears. Roarin' Success and Dora Milaje can give her plenty to think about.
