Selected odds by:

(1)

Pinafore^b¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 96| D

8/1

Useful filly who tasted success 3 times at 6f during 2023. Best effort of present campaign when runner-up in Musselburgh listed contest in June but she hasn't managed to reproduce that level of form subsequently.

Form: 662507

(7)

Katey Kontent³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rossa Ryan| T: C G Cox| OR: 90| C| D

7/2

Made a winning return to action at Windsor in May and has run with credit all 3 starts since, doing best of those who raced centre when just touched off at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) last time. Nudged up only 2 lb and she remains one to be interested in.

Form: 32-1432

(5)

Havana Pusey¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: P J McDonald| T: J Gallagher| OR: 86| D

8/1

Returned to form when striking at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in June and failed by a whisker over the same C&D recently. Quicker off the blocks that day than is often the case and, if again on good behaviour at the start, he could have a part to play.

Form: 9-71392

(2)

Under The Twilight²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: David Probert| T: M Blake| OR: 86| CD

12/1

Made it 3-3 here when seeing off Katey Kontent and 11 others on final start of 2023. Added to her tally on return at Windsor during the spring and best effort since when ninth of 16 back there last month (unlucky not finish closer having encountered traffic problems). One to consider.

Form: 1-15769

(4)

Kitai¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Watson| T: M Appleby| OR: 83| D

8/1

Gradually worked her way back to form this season, responding well to positive tactics when gaining a narrow verdict over Katey Kontent at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) in July. Best to overlook subsequent run at Ripon (lame) but one or two of these may be better treated in any case.

Form: 8-08610

(6)

American Arrow²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Saffie Osborne| T: E Walker| OR: 82

7/1

Justified strong support in emphatic fashion when winning 5-runner Haydock maiden (7f, good to firm) on debut. In too deep in listed company over a mile there next time but she remains open to improvement now dropped in trip and switched to handicap company.

Form: 18

(8)

Dance And Romance³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 80| BF| D

3/1

Lightly-raced filly who added to her Southwell debut success when making a winning handicap debut at Nottingham (6f, good) on penultimate start. Close third to Kitai at Goodwood 11 days later and she's a must for the shortlist.

Form: 1213

(3)

Miss Bodacious^b1,t1⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: S De Sousa| T: K R Burke| OR: 79| D

5/1

Joint winner of an AW novice in February and followed up on handicap/turf debut when returning from a break at Newmarket. Has found life tougher since, though, and improvement is needed now equipped with new headgear (sports first-time blinkers and tongue strap).

Form: 115774

Forecasts

Dance And Romance (3/1), Katey Kontent (7/2), Miss Bodacious (5/1), American Arrow (7/1), Pinafore (8/1), Havana Pusey (8/1), Kitai (8/1), Under The Twilight (12/1)

KATEY KONTENT and Dance And Romance were seperated by a whisker when hot on the heels of Kitai at Goodwood, and they are taken to reverse the placings with that filly this time. Marginal preference is for Katey Kontent, who came from much further back than the aforementioned rivals and returning to this stiffer track, where she has perfomed well on both previous visits (including when fourth in this race last year), will aid her cause. Under The Twilight is third choice ahead of American Arrow.
