Black-Type Analysis: Sophomore Sprinters Lock Horns In Scurry Stakes

Mehmas fields two of the eight runners in the Scurry Stakes | Amy Lanigan/Tally-Ho Stud

Saturday, Sandown, post time: 14:40, THE BETMGM SCURRY STAKES-Listed, £45,000, 3yo, 5f 10yT

Field: Coto De Caza (Ire) (Sioux Nation), Kullazain (GB) (Hello Youmzain {Fr}), Marty Hopkirk (Ire) (Kodi Bear {Ire}), Star Of Mehmas (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Hold A Dream (Ire) (Bated Breath {GB}), Pearl Of Wisdom (GB) (Pinatubo {Ire}), Proudly Yours (Ire) (Mehmas {Ire}), Town And Country (Ire) (Earthlight {Ire}).

TDN Verdict: Last year's G3 Cornwallis Stakes winner Coto De Caza returns under a penalty for that effort, which might make it tough against some already battle-hardened sprinters in this filly-dominated renewal. They include Star Of Mehmas, who has speed to burn as she proved when second in York's Listed Westow Stakes last month. [Tom Frary].
