11/1

Didn't shape with immediate promise when fourth of 6 at Yarmouth over 6f (5/1) on debut last month. Drops to 5f, a trip at which two half-siblings have won, but plenty of progress required.

5/2

Shaped well when second of 8 at Newmarket first time up in April, beaten a head despite running green. Took strong hold when disappointing fifth of 8 there 20 days ago but looks sure to be in the mix if back to debut form.

9/2

Foaled January 9. 50,000gns 2-y-o. Persian Force filly, half-sister to two 2-y-o winners out of a 6f-winning 2-y-o dam. Stable renowned for debutante success and market will prove a strong guide to her chances.

Forecasts

Call Me Tomorrow (5/2), Shimmering Sun (3/1), My Maria (9/2), Sonado (7/1), He's Readytorumble (9/1), Viking Barbie (11/1), Goldtrader (11/1), Belardo Ace (16/1), Seasail (25/1), Courseyoudo (80/1)

MY MARIA (IRE) is an expensive 50,000gns purchase who boasts an excellent juvenile pedigree and is in the right hands to be successful first time up. Call Me Tomorrow will be a serious threat if getting back to debut form, while Goldtrader is another newcomer that could make an impact.
