Tonyfromhr (G)
[B1T]
Didn't make much impact in a trio of maidens over 1m, but after 3 months off (in first-time tongue strap) he failed to find any improvement when seventh of 9 on handicap debut at Kempton (1½m) 8 days ago. Blinkers now added.

Forever Perfect (F)

Al Amirah (F)
Hinted at ability in her first 4 starts, but making handicap debut she looked a hard ride when tailed off at this course (9.5f) last month, hanging badly right 3f out.

Itsonlyrockandroll (F)

Was prominent in the betting for handicap debut and showed more than previously when 4½ lengths third of 6 to Forever Perfect over this C&D 17 days ago, despite needing a stiffer test. Could yet do better with cheekpieces applied.

Song Of The Stars (F)

After 7 weeks off, found a bit of improvement on second handicap start when fifth of 11 over this C&D 11 days ago (Forever Perfect ahead in second). Further progress required with cheekpieces on first time.

Kakirra (G)
Has offered little in 3 starts in quick succession, again finishing well held when seventh of 8 in novice at Kempton (7f) in March. However, his yard are going well and the market could be informative as he goes up in trip for handicap deb…
