Maiden who ran her best race on turf when fifth of 14 in a handicap at Yarmouth (7f) this month. Failed to back it up when only eighth at Windsor on Monday and first-time cheekpieces worn there are quickly discarded.

My Dad Tom^p⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tyrese Cameron⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 58

7/2

Fair maiden. Below-par sixth on both outings this year but he did at least settle better at Windsor last time and it's possible he'll come on for the run again.

Forecasts

Savannah Smiles (2/1), Orange Emperor (9/4), Blindfold Games (3/1), Calafrio (3/1), My Dad Tom (7/2)

CALAFRIO has a good record fresh and might be worth chancing for George Baker. Orange Emperor has been runner-up twice from this mark this year and may give her most to do.
