8/13

Dubawi filly made a highly promising debut when easily bagging 7-runner maiden (6/1) at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 47 days ago. Open to significant improvement and can defy a penalty.

Form: 1

200/1

8/1, last of 14 in maiden at Kempton (7f) on debut 29 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to make a big difference.

Cosi Bear

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ross Coakley| T: J R Fanshawe

66/1

50,000 gns Kodi Bear filly. Dam 2-y-o 1m winner out of smart 2-y-o 1m winner Wingspan. Most from the stable are better for a run but the betting should provide more clues.

125/1

Muhaarar filly. Half-sister to winner up to 6f Coup de Force and 7.4f winner Beau Gars. Dam 5.7f-7f winner. Bred to have a future but would be a surprise winner on debut.

Maybe Not²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett

13/2

8/1, offered something to work on when fifth of 9 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut 27 days ago. Open to improvement for top yard.

Form: 5

(13)

Nippasso

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby

200/1

Sogann filly. Dam maiden, including over jumps. Makes no obvious paper appeal and best watched.

Orchid²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey

10/3

Promising start to her career when second of 9 in novice at Kempton (7f) 27 days ago. Open to progress and should go well.

Form: 2

(6)

Starlit Spice

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Spencer| T: Ollie Sangster

8/1

180,000 gns foal by Sea The Stars. Sister to winner up to 1¼m Set Point and half-sister to 7f winner Jonny Concrete. The stable has plenty of juvenile talent so a market move for this one could prove significant.

Form:

(9)

Storm Lady

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: R A Fahey

22/1

€160,000 breeze-up buy. Zoustar half-sister to 6f-9f winner Forced and winner up to 1m De Bruyne. Dam 6f winner. Another newcomer who needs monitoring in the betting.

Form:

Unforgetable Belle^h¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes

80/1

Modest form at best both starts and likely more one for nurseries after this.

Forecasts

Formal (8/13), Orchid (10/3), Maybe Not (13/2), Starlit Spice (8/1), Storm Lady (22/1), Bear Facts (25/1), Eliza Bennet (50/1), Cosi Bear (66/1), Unforgetable Belle (80/1), Freedom Bay (125/1), Nippasso (200/1), Addenda (200/1), Borderline Madness (250/1)

FORMAL looked a good prospect on her Newbury debut and can defy a penalty under Ryan Moore. Orchid shaped well when second on her debut 4 weeks ago and is the obvious one to follow Sir Michael Stoute's charge home. Maybe Not can build on her opening run at Kempton and figure prominently, while Starlit Spice is a newcomer to monitor in the betting given her stable's good record with 2-y-os in 2024.
