4/1

Acquitted herself well in all 3 starts this year, latest when good second of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 16 days ago, albeit flattered by proximity to winner. Another bold bid is likely.

Alyara^h,p⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 47| CD

20/1

Modest mare. 22/1, 5 lengths eighth of 10 to Aspire To Glory in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 7 days ago. Hood back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 31-4468

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: S G West| OR: 46| CD

Forecasts

Alice's Impact (4/1), Aspire To Glory (4/1), Ravenglass (5/1), Fifty Sent (7/1), On Locust Point (8/1), Masham Moor (9/1), Iftikhaar (10/1), Stoic Syd (14/1), Mr Slicker (16/1), Alyara (20/1), Van Zant (33/1), Barney's Bay (80/1)

ALICE'S IMPACT has made a solid start for her new yard this year and gets the nod in an open-looking contest. Iftikhaar and Aspire To Glory should also go well.
