Verdict

BEARLY BLUE is already proven with plenty of give underfoot and is well drawn to go forward from stall 1, so could be the way to go back from a break. Donna Beauty needs to prove more tractable but is a big player if doing so, with He's Readytorumble another to consider with first-time cheekpieces enlisted.

6	Knew more second time up when runner up in 8-runner maiden at Goodwood (6f, heavy, 9/1) in June. Ran to a similar level when fifth of 6 at Nottingham a month later and having been given a break ahead of this, it will come as no surprise to see her feature from plum draw. 1st Pick 6 Bearly Blue (Ire) Jockey: Finley Marsh Trainer: Richard Hughes J: Finley Marsh T: Richard Hughes	100	-	-	-	39%	8/5

7	Well-grown filly who improved on her debut form (off 12 weeks) but didn't look an easy ride when seventh of 13 in a Goodwood maiden (7f) 6 weeks ago. Drop in trip/class both positives and she holds obvious form claims if proving more tractable. 2nd Pick 7 Donna Beauty (Ire) Jockey: Connor Beasley Trainer: Charlie Johnston J: Connor Beasley T: Charlie Johnston	93	-	-	-	29%	5/2

3	Went closer than previously when posting a good second from the front at Lingfield (6f) 2 starts back. Unable to match that level when fourth in a Wolverhampton novice 16 days ago but he's not without a chance if responding well to the cheekpieces. 3rd Pick 3 He's Readytorumble Jockey: Edward Greatrex Trainer: Jack Channon J: Edward Greatrex T: Jack Channon	90	-	-	-	15%	6/1
