Heavenly Heather

8st 10lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Tracy Waggott

Began her career in handicaps with a BHA mark of 60 and has improved in leaps and bounds since; seemed to excel herself when never-nearer sixth of 26 in Group 1 at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm; 40-1) last month; had run creditably over C&D the time before; big chance if repeating Ascot form.

Glistening Nights

9st 9lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Richard & Peter Fahey

Five-time winner but recent C&D second of 14 is as good as anything he's produced, leading until the final 110yds; a 3lb nudge shouldn't prevent a prominent showing if in similar form.

Striking Force

9st 2lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Richard & Peter Fahey

52,000gns yearling; closely related to 6.5f/7f winner Chorlton Lane (including 2yo/AW/Australia; RPR 110) and half-sister to 6f winner The Strikin Viking (including 2yo/Group 3; 114); makes paper appeal and interesting to see how she compares in the betting to the yard's other debutante.

Miss Rainbow

9st 12lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Tracy Waggott

Game effort to win a 5f handicap at Thirsk (good ground) last month; dropped away having made the running at Newcastle 13 days ago; has run well at Carlisle before but over 5f and this test might be stiffer than ideal.

Havana Oaks

8st 13lb

J: Barry McHugh

T: Ivan Furtado

Thrice-raced filly who holds weak claims on form but may be capable of improvement now handicapping with Catterick reappearance under her belt; check the betting for further guidance.
