Forecasts

Cupid's Arrow (7/2), Eadaoins Pet (4/1), Halinka (13/2), Major Cornwallis (13/2), Prazeres (7/1), Dusky Maid (8/1), Decadent Times (9/1), Langham (12/1), Sheepscar Lad (12/1), Chickenfortea (14/1), Bearag (22/1), Bonnie Gals (25/1), Mayleen (33/1), Greenview Paradise (40/1), Daring Knight (125/1)

Verdict

More like a low grade handicap than a maiden, and in truth little makes any significant appeal. Halinka produced a career best when upped to 7F at Wolverhampton in November, and whilst it's a worry that she has been off the track since, she appears one of the more likelier types. Dusky Maid has a couple of pieces of Newcastle form which read well enough in the context of this race, and she makes her turf debut, but the selection is the Ruth Carr trained CUPID'S ARROW. He's yet to race over this trip, but ran well at Thirsk recently, and has shown his effectiveness at this track previously when narrowly denied over 6F by Traveltalk.
  1. Cupid's Arrow
  2. Dusky Maid
  3. Major Cornwallis
