British EBF Fillies' Handicap

Off time: 15:00 | Winning time: 1m 10.62s

Rhyme Dust²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Harry Vigors⁽⁷⁾| T: R M Beckett| OR: 92| D

10/1

Useful filly who signed off for Mark Usher with a very good third of 12 to Beautiful Diamond in listed race at Ayr (5.5f, soft) in September. Failed to fire both starts for Ralph Beckett at that level but very dangerous to rule her out back in a handicap.

Form: 1463-96

(4)

Beaujolais Nouveau^p²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 87| D

16/1

Ended 2025 out of sorts and quiet return to action but sparked into life by cheekpieces when winning 9-runner handicap at Ripon by 2¼ lengths from Cotai Belle 3 weeks ago. 7 lb rise asks for more and dominating this field could be a different ask but she's clearly in excellent order.

Form: 300-051

(8)

Dandana²⁶⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: James Doyle| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 93| D

11/1

Won 6f novices on first 2 starts last summer before finishing 5½ lengths fourth of 11 to Royal Fixation when stepped up to Group 2 company in the Lowther over C&D. Presumably amiss in Firth of Clyde Stakes at Ayr when last seen in September but she's in very capable hands.

Form: 1140-

(12)

Eternal Sunshine^h1¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Lauren Young⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 85| D

14/1

Completed a hat-trick in the Portland at Doncaster in September and carried on in fine fettle during the autumn (undone by a wide draw over C&D final 2025 start). Low-key start to 2026 and still above that winning mark but she'll doubtless come good at some point this year for her shrewd yard.

Form: 30-0000

(1)

Lady Roxby²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: D Tudhope| T: M Herrington| OR: 82

4/1

Improved for the switch to current yard last season, scoring at Beverley in July and runner-up on 4 of her 5 other starts. Looked as good as ever when third on Kempton reappearance and easy enough to excuse defeat from tough terms in listed company at Haydock 3 weeks ago.

Form: 022-377

(7)

Mercury Day⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Jack Gilligan| T: C Allen| OR: 78

25/1

Ought to have landed a third career success on the Newmarket July course last summer, reportedly struck into and just failing having been left with plenty to do. Caught wide and ran below form after 9 months at Kempton recently so needs to leave that effort well behind.

Form: 5/7453-7

(2)

Shallow^p²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: S De Sousa| T: R Spencer| OR: 77| D

11/2

Front runner who was revitalised in cheekpieces when narrowly denied on return to turf at Yarmouth in April (7f). Unable to bag prominent pitch back at 6f at Ripon last time but did enough in third to suggest she's still in good form.

Form: 256923

(3)

Splish Splash²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 85| D

17/2

Daughter of Wootton Bassett who made all in a Haydock maiden (good to soft) in October before finishing third of 19 in listed event at Newmarket (6f) a fortnight later. Well held on reappearance then had a difficult draw last time so this should be a better guide as to her well-being.

Form: 3413-09

(6)

Cool Molly²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: S H James| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 81| D

12/1

Different proposition this year, registering her fourth all-weather success at Southwell (7f) in April. Ran a cracker making turf debut when running-on third at Chester (7.6f) and now back at 6f having raced too freely at Goodwood 3 weeks ago. Also engaged 3.12 Chester.

Form: 121130

(9)

Cotai Belle²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: R A Fahey| OR: 79| D

25/1

Successful twice as a juvenile. Left with a lot to do after being dropped in from a low stall when eighth of 13 on Ripon reappearance (6f) and much more like it when 2¼ lengths second of 9 to Beaujolais Nouveau over the same C&D 4 weeks ago.

Form: 1009-82

(10)

Siouxpersonic^p1¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Zac Lloyd| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 78

15/2

Off mark for Edward Bethell at the fifth attempt in 5f maiden at Southwell in September. Changed hands for 40,000 gns after and matched that form when just failing at Ripon in April, well suited by return to 6f. Drying ground and application of a hood possibly against her latest. Cheekpieces now on.

Form: 7271-24

(5)

Bintaryana²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Marco Ghiani| T: W J Knight| OR: 77| BF| D

7/2

Won 6f maiden at Nottingham on second start in April and heavily backed, she settled better than at Southwell when an excellent second at Haydock (5f) 3 weeks ago. Nudged up 2 lb but this sharp 6f should be right up her street and she's unexposed. Major claims.

Form: 5-122

Forecasts

Bintaryana (7/2), Lady Roxby (4/1), Shallow (11/2), Siouxpersonic (15/2), Splish Splash (17/2), Rhyme Dust (10/1), Dandana (11/1), Cool Molly (12/1), Eternal Sunshine (14/1), Beaujolais Nouveau (16/1), Cotai Belle (25/1), Mercury Day (25/1)

Lightly-raced 3-y-o BINTARYANA makes plenty of appeal at the foot of the weights on the back of an improved showing when second on handicap debut at Haydock 3 weeks ago. It hasn't yet clicked for Rhyme Dust for her excellent stable but that may change back in a handicap so she's a danger, along with Ripon 1-2 Beaujolais Nouveau and Cotai Belle.
