Narrative: Small-field novice with the form lines headed by Fern Clyde, whose RPR 78 from two starts is materially clear of anything else on display. The danger is K R Burke's debutante Etonnante — sharp Havana Grey filly out of a Kodiac mare from a yard flying at 23% over the past fortnight. Lady Branksome ran a fair fifth on debut and represents a Newmarket stable but Saxon Warrior progeny tend to want further, while Bladey Lady has only modest figures despite a third on debut. Sovereign Beach (Ten Sovereigns, Sangster) is the most interesting of the other newcomers. Recommended: Fern Clyde Top-rated on RPR by a clear margin with the benefit of experience over the unraced types; if the ground and trip suit she sets the standard. Alternative: Etonnante K R Burke debutantes are dangerous when the yard is striking at 23% and the filly is by Havana Grey — the obvious improver and most likely to overturn Fern Clyde on debut. ============================================================================== Generated 2026-05-29 22:59 UTC · HorseRacingValue.com · race rac_11946675
