Miraculous²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 80| C

1/1

Promising individual. Winner here in January. Second of 8 in novice (11/4) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 22 days ago. Remains open to improvement and he's the one to beat.

Form: 12

Kameel⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽³⁾| T: J Butler| CD

7/4

Won 10-runner C&D maiden (5/1) on debut 56 days ago, always holding on. Likely to improve with that experience to draw upon.

Form: 1-

Florida Dawn¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 75| CD

10/1

Twice-raced winner. Won 4-runner novice (8/1) at this C&D 14 days ago, kept up to work. Open to progress for top yard and she merits respect.

Form: 41

(2)

Queen Dinah²⁰⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: K A Ryan

7/1

Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in novice at Thirsk (7f, good to firm, 11/2). Off 6 months and she looks up against it here against three promising rivals.

Form: 65-

Forecasts

Miraculous (1/1), Kameel (7/4), Queen Dinah (7/1), Florida Dawn (10/1)

MIRACULOUS still looked a touch green when chasing home a potentially useful type in a 6f Lingfield novice last month and, with this step up in trip likely to be in his favour, the Too Darn Hot colt is taken to resume winning ways. Kameel and Florida Dawn should both have more to offer, too, and are feared most in that order of preference.
