16/1

Showed promise when third in a lower grade handicap in May but ninth of 10 in AW handicap at Southwell (18/1) 13 days ago, underperforming and never threatening. First-time cheekpieces may help return to form back on turf.

Forecasts

Ravishing Beauty (3/1), Day Of Grace (4/1), Catton Lady (9/2), Bintshuaa (6/1), Pearly Squirrel (7/1), Velvet Whisper (9/1), Northern Attitude (12/1), Pasha (16/1), Eva Rosie (28/1), Adorla Of Achill (33/1), Pink Petunia (150/1)

RAVISHING BEAUTY is thriving at present, having won twice before finishing second in consecutive races, most recently making good late headway at Carlisle. Well suited by this trip, she can land this competitive handicap. Bintshuaa should be capable of bouncing back from her Kempton disappointment with more sensible tactics. The well-bred Day of Grace may do better now handicapping.
