Miracles Do Happen

Trainer: Billy Aprahamian
Towcester, Northants
Owner: Hip Flask Racing (mr)

Sire: Bathyrhon (GER)
Dam: Cosmic Diamond (GB)
Damsire: Multiplex (GB)
Comment
Winner last time out and again five starts back, Miracles Do Happen arrives fresh from a 21-day break and has run over today's trip and going before, which underpins our preference. A burden of 165 lb is the one reservation.

Damsire: Saddlers' Hall (IRE)
Comment
Lady Dapple Rose is yet to win in her last five starts, but a third four starts back shows she can bob up, and 28 days since her last run suggests she'll be fresh. Our rating of 98 sits well above her official 91, though a ninth last time out and a fall before that are the concern under 159 lb.

Sire: Zarak (FR)

Damsire: Shamardal (USA)
Comment
Zaraquelle was second last time out, and a fourth two starts back, so she is yet to win in her last two starts; 77 days off is a concern, and 157 lb is a hefty burden from an official rating of 91. Our rating of 90 puts her fifth of seven.

Comment
Siorai arrives in cracking nick, second last time out and runner-up in three of her last five, so she is a consistent threat after a 23-day break. Yet to win in that spell, though, and 162 lb is a hefty burden to carry.

Damsire: Shirocco (GER)
Comment
Yanka Blue has finished fourth in her last two starts and is winless in her last six, with a pulled up three starts back, so she is hard to fancy. She has run over today's trip and going, and a second five starts back shows she can go close, but our figures rank her last of seven.

Damsire: Silver Frost (IRE)
Comment
Winless in her last five, Barafundle Bay was fourth last time out, 21 days ago, but before that came an unplaced run, an eighth and a seventh, and 145 lb is a big ask off 77. She has run over this trip and on this going, yet ranks sixth of seven on our figures.

Comment
Mahon Falls is consistently in the frame, with a third last time out, a third four starts back and a second five starts back, and she is the top-ranked runner on our figures at 103 against an official mark of 100. The one concern is a 149-day layoff under 168 lb.
