Noble Victory¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: J Tate| D

10/11

38,000 gns brother to 6f winner True Icon and closely related to useful 5f-7f winner Magical Effect and 7f-8.6f winner Broughtons Flare. Better for debut when winning 7-runner maiden at Chelmsford City (6f, 2/7) 19 days ago. May well do better again and big chance under a penalty.

Form: 21

Rainbow Nebula⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Garritty| T: R A Fahey

10/3

Placed both starts in C&D novices, beaten only by a smart prospect last time. Needs considering.

Stardrop^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S D Bowen| T: James Owen

12/1

160,000 gns yearling, Ulysses colt. Closely related to high-class winner up to 1¼m Inspiral, won Sun Chariot Stakes/Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf, and useful 7f/7.4f winner Astrologer. Dam temperamental 2-y-o 7f winner who stayed 10.5f. Wears hood. Interesting newcomer.

Noble Victory (10/11), Berkshire Whisper (3/1), Rainbow Nebula (10/3), Stardrop (12/1)

A small field but an interesting novice with all 4 worth considering. RAINBOW NEBULA was beaten only by a smart prospect over C&D 6 weeks ago so shades the vote over the 2 penalised winners and a well-bred debutant.
