Forecasts

Shem (9/4), Humid (5/2), Artorious (16/5), Footstepstothehart (10/3), Heat And Dust (8/1), Perfect Sunrise (17/2), Jianzi (16/1), Contact (18/1), Zahrisa (20/1), Dandini (50/1), Favourite Niece (66/1), Northern Cracker (66/1), Umafika (100/1)

Verdict

The Kodiac colt Shem is a noteworthy newcomer for the Middleham maestro Mark Johnston, while the Harzand filly Zahrisa merits a basic market check on her debut for Declan Carroll. However, we'll focus on those with more experience in search of the winner. John Quinn's Footstepstothehart took a slight step forward (behind the speedy Spright) at York latest, but the form benchmark is clearly set by the Cheveley Park Stud-owned HUMID (Richard Fahey). She overcame clear and obvious signs of inexperience to finish a creditable fourth to Brazen Belle on debut at Catterick, and that winner wasn't beaten far (eighth) in the Newbury Super Sprint Stakes subsequently.
