Fouette³⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: A J Farragher| T: James Horton| CD

4/1

Noted making late grounds on debut and derived plenty from that when winning 8-runner maiden (8/1) at this C&D (good) 35 days ago. Penalty to shoulder but she well do better again.

Form: 61

Ellaria Sand²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: A Watson| OR: 77

3/1

Too green to justify strong support on debut at Yarmouth in June but found plenty when landing 12-runner novice at Newbury (6f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Open to further progress.

Form: 41

Anna Swan

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute

7/4

Foaled February 7. Almanzor filly. Dam, winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 7f winner) who stayed 14.5f, sister to very smart winner up to 1¾m (stayed 2m) Ispolini. Bred to make up into a smart middle-distance performer so a very interesting newcomer for leading connections.

Forecasts

Anna Swan (7/4), Ellaria Sand (3/1), Help From Above (7/2), Fouette (4/1), Liberate (12/1), Tango In Paris (18/1)

ANNA SWAN's superb yard isn't know for its success with newcomers but she's bred to be at least useful and, getting weight from previous-winners Ellaria Sand and Fouette, she may well be up to the task.
