Be Hopeful is a 3yo bay gelding from Ireland trained by D. Menuisier, based at Pulborough. By Blue Point out of Motheeba, he made his debut in a Class 3 maiden at Lingfield over 2,012m, finishing 7th of 9 under Jason Watson. That initial run came in a fairly strong maiden, and he looked in need of the experience, never seriously landing a blow. Still a maiden after one start, he is expected to improve with fitness and racecraft. He needs to progress but could step forward if dropped in class or switched to a more suitable race next time.

Fiefdom is a 3yo bay gelding from Ireland trained by S. Woods, based at Newmarket. By Profitable out of Demesne, he made his debut in a Class 5 maiden at Lingfield over 1,408 m, finishing 6th of 9 under K. T. O’Neill. He showed signs of inexperience but was not beaten out of sight and should improve for the outing. A step forward is expected on his second start, especially with natural progress from his debut effort. Still a maiden, but he holds potential to be competitive in similar company and could be capable of going close if he builds on that first run and puts it all together. Back to win.

Fabulous Fox is a 5-year-old grey/roan mare from the United States trained by M. Anthony Ferraro. By Nyquist out of Edith Court, she has built a solid record with five career wins, showing she is capable when conditions suit. Her standout success came at Belmont (The Big A) in June 2024 when she landed a $75k maiden special weight under Irad Ortiz Jr. Recent form has been mixed, with a win and several placed efforts before a below-par run last time. She needs to bounce back but retains the ability to be competitive at this level on her better days.

Red Legs is a lightly raced 3yo chestnut filly based in the United Kingdom and trained by Martin Dunne at Newmarket. By Charming Thought out of Maximize, she boasts a pedigree that suggests a blend of speed and potential progression. Although she is yet to make her racecourse debut, connections will be hopeful she can develop with experience. Early days, but she is one to monitor in maidens as she gains fitness and begins her racing career.

Viennetta is a three-year-old filly who is still to open her account after two starts. She finished fifth on debut at Bath before dropping to seventh at Brighton in August. Although she has yet to show strong form figures, she may benefit from more experience and could improve as she gains further racing exposure in maiden company.
