Dubawi filly who came good in a Nottingham maiden over this trip in June and bettered that form when second of 5 on handicap debut at Salisbury (1¼m, good to firm) 21 days ago. Leading claims off an unchanged mark.

Returned with placed efforts in 7f/1m handicaps. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Ascot (1m, firm) 21 days ago. Looks the chief threat to Food For Thought if stamina holds up in trip.

Runner-up in maiden/novice events at Doncaster but below par in 1¼m Yarmouth maiden 24 days ago. Makes handicap debut from a mark which demands improvement.

Improved on juvenile form switched to handicaps this season, winning back-to-back at Nottingham (1m, good). Her 3 subsequent efforts suggest the handicapper is possibly winning the argument, including when stepped up to 1¼m last time.

Forecasts

Food For Thought (10/11), Thaluna (10/3), Hollywell Stream (7/2), Valkyrie Storm (7/1)

Verdict

The front-running FOOD FOR THOUGHT may be able to dominate this small-field race. Thaluna has held her own in some competitive handicaps and may give Ralph Beckett's charge most to do.
