Chalta

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: George Bass⁽³⁾| T: Miss S West

150/1

Dam 2-y-o 7.4f winner who stayed 1¼m, half-sister to useful winner up to 9f (stayed 1¼m) Wovoka. Makes belated racecourse debut and it would be a surprise to see her take this.

9/4

Fair gelding. 7/2, creditable second of 9 in novice at this C&D (AW) 22 days ago, pulling clear of the remainder. Likely to be in the thick of things again kept to this trip.

Naughty Eyes²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 77| BF

4/1

Displayed signs of greenness but still nicely on top when successful on debut in a Wolverhampton maiden (6f) in November. Slow start did her no favours dropped to the minimum trip when third back there (5.1f) over Christmas and she's worth another chance on first crack at 7f.

Enchanted Way¹⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson

11/10

€40,000 New Bay filly who built on her promising debut run when second of 7 in maiden (5/2) at Epsom (7f, good to soft) in July, worn down only close home. Definite possibilities back from 6 months off making all-weather debut.

Form: 42-

Rhodes Royce

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: A J Farragher| T: K P De Foy

16/1

Dutch Art filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 7f winner Rosie's Return and 2m/16.2f winner Zivaniya. Dam sprint maiden half-sister to useful 5f winner Rebecca Rocks.

Lady Manzor¹⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Jack Dace⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs A J Perrett

28/1

Almanzor filly who was sent off at long odds and proved very green when seventh of 14 in maiden at Kempton (7f) on debut in August. This should reveal more but she's passed over nevertheless.

Form: 7-

Sixteen One¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Grace McEntee| T: G Boughey| OR: 66

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, eighth of 10 in maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 16 days ago, weakening when headed over 1f out. Minor role probably the best she can hope for.

Form: 266-8

Forecasts

Enchanted Way (11/10), Mister Mcgregor (9/4), Naughty Eyes (4/1), Bubbily (14/1), Rhodes Royce (16/1), Sixteen One (25/1), Lady Manzor (28/1), Chalta (150/1)

Having overcome greenness to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton in November, NAUGHTY EYES was never in the same rhythm down at the minimum trip when third back at that venue 4 weeks ago. She's worth another chance now her stamina is tested further. Enchanted Way and Mister Mcgregor are others fancied to feature.
