Going - Good to Firm. 
View all races Draw Analysis Result Odds Compare

Formscan  - Bellatina took a step back in the right direction when finishing second at Hamilton and commands plenty of respect on her nursery bow. Najmet Minzaal (fourth) and Penny Capri (fifth) were closely matched at Lingfield and are open to improvement, but MARDY BUM appeals most. David O'Meara's filly outran her 125/1 odds when fourth at Wetherby and has been given what appears to be a workable mark.
