80 Expert View: Far too free in first time headgear, outclassed down the field in a nursery at Goodwood most recent; effective 6/7f, acts on good and AW; debut winner needs more to defy this mark, stamina to prove.

Form Snapshot: Foaled 8 Apr. A winner at 6f. Beaten 11l behind Sword Salute at 50-1 when 17th of 18 on her latest outing at Goodwood over 7f (good to firm) last month.

77 Expert View: Still green and hung under pressure, ran to form but looked in need of stiffer test 3l third in a maiden at Brighton most recent run; effective 6f, acts on good to firm and AW; quite small and may not be much room for progress but longer trip should help on handicap debut.

Form Snapshot: Foaled 20 Apr. Unplaced in all three starts. Third of 5 behind Enamored beaten 2 3/4l at 7-2 on his latest outing at Brighton over 6f (good to firm) earlier this month.

Verdict

Parading (second) and Magical Life (third) met at Ffos Las before the latter went on to bolt up at Kempton, and the pair should be closely matched again. Little Mester and Pequenita are both open to improvement on their nursery debuts, while Poppy Foxy went close at Pontefract last time so must enter calculations. However, the vote goes to CRAZY CUBANA, who was out of her depth at Glorious Goodwood and should do much better in these calmer waters.

Top Tip: Crazy Cubana (1)
Watch out for: Magical Life (6)

A tight contest can go the least exposed in the field PEQUENITA. She has shaped with promise both starts so far despite racing freely and is bred to relish this step up in trip. With Oisin Murphy back in the saddle she can take advantage of a lenient opening mark with the biggest challenges likely to come from Parading and Magical Life. The pair are closely matched on their Ffos Las meeting and the latter has won since after being upped to 1m. She will need to improve to reverse that form on these revised terms though.
