BetMGM: It’s Showtime Nursery Handicap

Type: Flat AW

Weather: Mostly cloudy

Form: 694563

Last run: 20 days

W: 9st 9lb

2 yo Filly

OR: 60

Form & Verdict
Stayed on into third at Wolverhampton three weeks ago (7f) and evidently has enough ability to feature at this level; she looked a hard ride last time though, hanging badly left in the straight, and others appeal more for win purposes.

Just a respectable fifth on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) last month, after a break, and was soundly beaten after racing too freely here (1m) three weeks ago; now drops back to 7f with blinkers tried.

2 yo Filly

OR: 59

Form & Verdict
Her opening mark looks stiff on the face of it but she has looked a work in progress and is almost certainly better than she's shown; made some headway in the straight over 6f here last month (hung left when still looking green) and stepping back up in trip looks an obvious move; no surprise to see this well-bred filly leave her previous efforts behind.

Well held in all five runs but her latest fourth at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last week was a respectable effort on nursery debut; needs to build on that at this new trip but it's still early days and she's a half-sister to several sprint winners; not ruled out.

Finished out the back in three quick runs on turf in the summer; gelded since latest; his brother Admiral D is useful on AW and the new trip, switch to nurseries and the addition of blinkers are all sources of potential improvement as well.
