Hanney Girl^t²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 70| D

15/8

Tongue strap on first time, career best when winning 8-runner maiden (15/8) at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Makes handicap debut off what could be a generous mark.

Form: 03361

Straight Ahead²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-8| J: S H James| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 69

10/3

Fair maiden. 5/1, creditable second of 5 in nursery at Musselburgh (5f, good) 25 days ago. Likely to have a say if the outside stall isn't too troublesome.

Form: 6652

(5)

Sinj⁴²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 67| BF

4/1

Fair form. 2/1, creditable fourth of 6 in nursery at Thirsk (5f, good) 42 days ago, although she was reported to have bled from the nose.

Form: 32204

(8)

Rotokura Belle¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Elle-May Croot⁽⁵⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 66

5/1

Modest form. Third in 5f Windsor novice last month but not in the same form when fourth of 9 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 16/1) 13 days ago. Bounce back needed on nursery debut.

Form: 7534

(2)

Powernap³⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Joanna Mason| T: J Bedi| OR: 59

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in maiden (33/1) at Beverley (5f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Her opening mark isn't obviously generous.

Form: 747

(6)

Runninman²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 58

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, sixth of 7 in novice at Carlisle (6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. More chance now handicapping.

Form: 906

(7)

Dakota Dawn¹²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 58

9/1

Down the field in both nursery starts so others certainly arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 48368

Forecasts

Hanney Girl (15/8), Straight Ahead (10/3), Sinj (4/1), Rotokura Belle (5/1), Dakota Dawn (9/1), Jack Rabbit Slims (12/1), Powernap (14/1), Runninman (33/1)

HANNEY GIRL has had the form of her Beverley maiden win franked and might prove up to giving the weight away on nursery debut if the tongue strap continues to have a positive effect. Musselburgh runner-up Straight Ahead is next on the list ahead of Jack Rabbit Slims, who may benefit from the drop back to 5f.
