Form & Verdict
Bumper winner who was likely flattered in 1m6f Group 3 at York on penultimate start; turned over at short odds latest, failing by a long way to back up the form; shaky on the figures.

Peace Belle

9st 10lb

J: Andrew Mullen

T: Jennie Candlish

Won one of three bumpers; fourth this summer in her two races under Flat rules but there the similarity between them ends, as the first race was a AW maiden (9.4f) and the second a six-runner Group 3 at York (1m6f; 125-1); the latter was a slowly run affair but she came from last and was one of the fastest finishers, so a high rating should not be laughed out of court.

Peace Belle

8st 11lb

J: William Pyle

T: Jennie Candlish

Won at Hexham last August in the first of her three bumpers but a Grade 2 at Aintree (125-1) proved far too tough in April; will build at some point on the modest form shown in a 9.4f maiden on her recent first venture under Flat rules, but she's impossible to fancy today.

Betting Forcast

7/1 Masterly, 13/8 Time Thief, 9/4 Peace Belle, 4/1 Why Not Me, 8/1 Feelin Free

Verdict

Attractively bred TIME THIEF is taken to show progress and defy a 7lb penalty for his Yarmouth success. Why Not Me, who should benefit from the new trip, is second pick. Peace Belle has a bit to prove after an odds-on defeat.[Steve Boow]
