Low-mileage 3-y-o who made the perfect start for new yard when scoring at Thirsk (7f) in September. Failed to meet expectations when fifth at Catterick later that month but her profile previously was a positive one and she may yet have more to offer.

Consistent for the Crisfords and found some improvement for this yard, justifying strong favouritism when opening his account at Doncaster in June. Yet to replicate that performance in 3 starts since but given a break following a lesser run at Yarmouth in September. Type to bounce back.

Showed promise in 2 outings for the Gosden stable and having changed hands for 10,000 gns, he shaped with some promise after over a year off when fifth in first-time hood at Wolverhampton (7f) earlier this month. Finished with running left then and respected now handicapping over 1m.

A €650,000 yearling purchase who has made the frame on 3 of her 4 starts in maiden/novice events, no match for a superior pair when third at Kempton (7f) 7 weeks ago. Switch to handicaps in her favour now and further progress not ruled out given the stable she represents.

Maiden who has made a positive start for new stable, suited by the step back up in trip when fourth of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (1m) 3 weeks ago. No reason why he won't give another good account on all-weather debut.

Finished tailed off at Sandown the previous month but returned to all-weather/equipped with cheekpieces she was much improved when bolting up in a C&D handicap 7 days ago. This looks a deeper race but interesting nevertheless as she is wisely turned out under a penalty.

Confirmed the promise of his return when opening account in handicap at Salisbury (7f) in May. Has gone backwards from that effort in 3 subsequent outings, though.

Appeals on paper but yet to build on the minor promise showed when fifth on debut at Ffos Las in 2 subsequent starts on maidens on turf/all-weather. Switches to handicaps following a break and best watched unless market suggests otherwise.

Placed 3 times for Charlie Johnston but is still to fire for present stable despite sliding mark, finishing seventh of 14 in handicap at Nottingham (1¼m, good) 25 days ago. Return to all-weather may help dropped in trip for yard enjoying a good spell.

Forecasts

Toastmaster (13/8), Sterling Fortune (10/3), Yimmna (11/2), Galba (15/2), Mr Keble (17/2), New Bay Star (12/1), Mo Anam Chara (14/1), Starlight Sami (22/1), Vincenzo Bellini (125/1)

Verdict

STERLING FORTUNE showed much-improved form when bolting up in first-time cheekpieces over C&D last week and whilst this rates more demanding, she ought to take some stopping if replicating that performance under a penalty. Toastmaster can bounce back from a lesser effort at Yarmouth and is feared, as are handicap debutants Yimmna and Mr Keble.
