|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4th | 1 | 7 |
Mayberry Moon (G)
Dual winner who was left poorly placed on final start for Michael Dods last September. Sold for only 1,000 gns the following month and it's hard to be confident ahead of his stable debut/return.

Norfolk Blue (G)
FAV
[P]
Improving sort who went as close as he has when runner-up in a competitive 7f Doncaster handicap last time. That form is working out well and a first victory beckons.

Quick Quasar (G)
[P]
Put it all together to get off the mark under an aggressive front-running ride at Kempton (7f) in March. Looked stretched by the longer trip on return from 11 weeks off at Wolverhampton (8.5f)) latest and could bounce back on turf debut.

Flyta (F)
[T]
Improved markedly when runner-up on turf debut at Windsor (1m). Unexposed on this surface and 7f on a galloping track should suit.

Strong Voice (C)
Hasn't kicked on since finishing a well-backed third on debut at Southwell last autumn. Needs to do more now switched to a handicap following a short break (had a breathing operation in interim).

Twilight Glow (G)
[V1]
Maiden hasn't built on his seasonal reappearance and will need to improve for the application of a first-time visor.

Victory Sound (G)
[P]
Returned to form from out of the blue when third in all-weather handicap at Lingfield (1m) last time. Far from certain to back that up over a shorter trip on turf, though.
