9/4

Bated Breath filly who matched debut form whilst still looking in need of experience when third of 9 in maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 36 days ago. Remains with potential for leading stable and this step up in trip could well unlock improvement.

Forecasts

Fox Avatar (10/11), Ever Hopefull (9/4), Royal College (5/1), Wiltshire Wonder (17/2), Capla Lazarus (50/1), Lady Teo (50/1), Darkest Intention (66/1), Arc Zoosve (100/1), Aughnagomaun (200/1)

Not a great deal of depth to this novice but FOX AVATAR showed ability amidst inexperience when third on debut at Salisbury 3 weeks ago and, open to improvement, he's fancied to make it second time lucky. Ever Hopefull and Royal College are the dangers.
