6/5

Readily made a winning reappearance for new trainer Michael Herrington at Beverley (1½m, good to firm, 3/1) 7 days ago. Leading claims under a 5 lb penalty if showing up in similar form.

Max Of Stars³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Russell| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 53WS

22/1

Fair winning hurdler but struggled in that sphere lately and ran poorly on AW Flat in January. Needs a recent wind operation to spark an upturn in her fortunes.

Forecasts

Spring Chorus (6/5), Penelope's Sister (3/1), Made All (13/2), Star Delta (8/1), Prince Hector (12/1), Lady Phoebe (16/1), Queen Roslyn (16/1), Sassy Glory (20/1), Max Of Stars (22/1), Irv (25/1), Paco's Pride (33/1), Fanaigi Linn (40/1), Tiberio Force (50/1)

SPRING CHORUS had plenty in hand on her recent first outing for Michael Herrington and is taken to make light of a 5 lb penalty. Penelope's Sister and Star Delta have made encouraging returns to the track in recent weeks and may provide the main opposition unless the betting speaks in the favour of Sam England's new recruit Made All.
