Suzette⁴⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Russell| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 70

13/2

Zoustar filly who built on debut promise when third at Pontefract (6f) in June. May not have been ideally suited by the track when filling same spot in maiden at Epsom (7f) 7 weeks ago and switch to nurseries in her favour now.

Form: 433

(2)

Sealine²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 68

15/2

Ten Sovereigns colt who finished fifth of 7 in maiden at Pontefract (6f, good) on qualifying run 22 days ago, running green and closing up late. Step up in trip promises to suit now handicapping and better likely in the offing.

Form: 585

Greek Gift¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 67| CD

5/2

C&D winner who is being kept busy in recent weeks, taking her tally in nurseries to 2-4 when landing 11-runner event at Beverley (7.4f) 2 weeks ago. Sound claims again up 7 lb.

Form: 051531

Big Bug^t⁵⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: Martin Dunne| OR: 65

10/3

Placed on 3 of her 5 starts in maidens and matched pick of form when third of 7 in nursery at Lingfield (6f, good to soft) 50 days ago, headed 1f out but keeping on. Longer trip here may bring on a little more progress.

Form: 733263

Unthinkable¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 63

12/1

Winner at Beverley in May but record has been patchy subsequently, sixth of 8 in nursery at Catterick (6f, firm, 28/1) 10 days ago. Forecast easier ground here can help but others appeal more overall.

Form: 154396

(3)

Treble Winners²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Hart| T: M Walford| OR: 62

12/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in maiden at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm, 17/2) 27 days ago. Makes handicap debut and the betting may prove a useful guide.

Form: 536

(7)

Miss Cast⁴³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 60

8/1

Acclamation filly who has progressed a little with each start to date, steady headway over 1f out when third of 9 in novice at Thirsk (6f) on qualifying run 43 days ago. Interesting now tackling nurseries up in trip.

Form: 673

(5)

Uncle Sam¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 58

9/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, eighth of 10 in nursery at Beverley (5f, good) 14 days ago, weakening over 1f out. More needed up significantly in trip.

Form: 7398

Forecasts

Greek Gift (5/2), Big Bug (10/3), Suzette (13/2), Sealine (15/2), Miss Cast (8/1), Uncle Sam (9/1), Unthinkable (12/1), Treble Winners (12/1)

MISS CAST showed a little more than previously when third at Thirsk 6 weeks ago and, with the switch to handicaps/step up in trip both rating likely positives, she's selected to take a step forward and come out on top. Greek Gift scored in good style at Beverley 2 weeks ago and is feared, with Sealine and Big Bug completing the shortlist.
