CHIWARAgets the nod to go one better at the second time ofasking in this fillies’ maiden. Ash Tree cost plenty as a yearling and looks the most interesting of the newcomers prior to the help of any market clues, while Bearly Blue also has to be considered.

Everyone at Nottingham Racecourse is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Malcolm Wood, a devoted supporter of the racecourse and a highly respected figure within both local government and the Nottingham community.
Malcolm was involved with Nottingham Racecourse and The Jockey Club for almost four decades, serving as both a Racecourse Company Director and Committee Member. During his 38 years of service, he worked alongside several Racecourse Chairs and played an important role in supporting the development and success of horseracing in Nottingham.
Those who knew Malcolm at Nottingham Racecourse will remember him not only for his commitment and counsel, but also for his warmth, character and unmistakable presence. He took great pride in his appearance, enjoyed good company and was a steadfast supporter of racing in Nottingham throughout his life.
Our thoughts are with Malcolm’s family, friends and all who had the privilege of knowing him at this sad time.

EMPIRICAL showed real promise when third over C&D in May, finishing well from an unpromising position and further improvement looks on the cards. Mereside Princess also arrives at the top of her game and switches to a track that tends to suit enthusiastic front runners, so they look the pair to concentrate on.
