9/1

Three-time winner over 7f who proved her stamina for 1m when pulling clear of the remainder when chasing home Everlasting at Navan. Changed hands for £200,000 after and signed off time for John Patrick Murtagh with a sound ninth in the Sandringham (wasn't seen to beat effect). This is easier.

Form: 30-1329

Hard To Resist²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: R L Moore| T: W J Haggas| OR: 94| CD

22/1

Fairly useful 2-y-o, winning C&D novice on second start then third in the Group 3 Prestige at Goodwood (best effort). Pitched in quite deep on handicaps debut in the Sandringham, finishing well held but this will reveal more.

Heritage House^h,t¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S M Levey| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 93

33/1

Nursery winner who did well to hit the frame at huge odds in listed company on final start in November. Limitations exposed to a degree since, albeit she got some black type at Carlisle last time. New mark looks too high.

Form: 24-5563

Zenjabeela²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S De Sousa| T: R Varian| OR: 90| D

33/1

Dual winner last summer but well held in the Rockfel/York listed fillies' race 8 months apart and she also trailed in last switched to a handicap in the Sandringham last month. Lots to prove.

Form: 3115-90

Not Real³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: James Doyle| T: R Varian| OR: 89

10/1

Outclassed 6 rivals at Redcar on second start (6f) and better form when third under a penalty over 7f at Haydock, no extra late on. Could be that she's best as a sprinter and this mark asks for more but she's unexposed and in the right hands.

Form: 213

Arisaig²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: N Callan| T: C Johnston| OR: 89| D

4/1

Notched up a third success, opening account on turf in the process, in Lingfield handicap last month, showing a nice turn of foot and comfortably coming clear. Shaped well in the Sandringham, confirming her mark is a lenient one. Huge player back in trip.

Form: 81-4318

Lou Lou's Gift^h,t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: W J Haggas| OR: 88| CD

15/8

Won 6f Newcastle novice in November and confirmed the promise of her reappearance (strong form) when landing the odds over C&D a fortnight ago. Up 7 lb for that easy win and limit not yet reached.

Form: 321-31

(5)

Divine Breath³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 85| D

12/1

Promising type who was well suited by the return to 7f when scoring by 6 lengths in 7f Chelmsford handicap last month. Assessor reacted with 15 lb ruse but she's a promising filly in top hands.

Form: 2161

(3)

Miss Bodacious²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 83| C

4/1

Confirmed debut promise when dead-heating in 8-runner novice event at Chelmsford (6f, 11/4) in February. That race worked out well and she improved another chunk when following up on handicap debut here 3 weeks ago. Now tackles 7f and limit not yet reached.

Form: 311

Forecasts

Lou Lou's Gift (15/8), Arisaig (4/1), Miss Bodacious (4/1), Key To Cotai (7/1), Asian Daze (9/1), Not Real (10/1), Divine Breath (12/1), Rochelle (16/1), Hard To Resist (22/1), Zenjabeela (33/1), Heritage House (33/1)

No fewer than 5 of these contested the Sandringham at Ascot last month with ARISAIG shaping best of them given she raced on the wrong side and was hampered. She can confirm herself to be a well-handicapped filly here, albeit there's plenty of depth to this with Lou Lou's Gift, Divine Breath and Miss Bodacious arriving on the up.
