Age: 4|  Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: D Loughnane| OR:  55
7/1
With fifth trainer in seven months. Goes well around here but needs to find more from a poor draw and a mark from which he is yet to be competitive.

9/1
A dual course winner over 6f but has also been placed over today's trip, so is effective on the tapeta surface. However, it's over two years since he last tasted success and he again looks vulnerable to a more determined finisher.

Strung a couple of good performances together last summer but has been in dismal form since. Recent signs are not promising but he is on his favoured surface and appears better suited to this trip nowadays. Remains hard to fancy.

5/2
Can be a bit of a character but has been in a more co-operative mood lately. Winner at Southwell earlier this month and creditable second there last week from this mark. Equally effective around here and has an obvious chance, despite a poor draw, in an uncompetitive event.

6/1
Winner under today's rider at Lingfield and a bid to follow up quickly the following day failed completely. A short break since should see him in better shape this time but still has something to prove off this higher mark.

Sheer Intensity26

8/1
18-race maiden now drops in trip. Stable 0-39 for the last fortnight and jockey 1-9 for the yard. Looks vulnerable despite the handicapper taking pity on her.

Sole victory came over C&D and best recent performance again came here over 9.5f. Drops in the weights following two poor performances on different surfaces and cheekpieces are fitted.

Carries less baggage than most in this lineup. Showed little in three runs last season and has been soundly beaten on both previous starts here.

7/1
Visor has inspired dramatic improvement in this filly who took 21 races to open her account at odds of 33/1. Proved that to be no fluke last time when she hampered her cause by missing the break. Will take some beating if proving as effective on this surface.

16/1
Best efforts have come on this surface and entitled to have needed the run last time on first run for third trainer since November. Handicapper has slipped her to a mark which gives her a chance if coming back to the form she was showing last year for David O'Meara.

Has a few less miles than some of these but has been off the track for 15 months. Was supported for that handicap debut and yard have enjoyed some success in the past five months. Might be worth checking in the market as this will take little winning.

Forecasts

Prince of Time (5/2), Locommotion (6/1), Isntshesomething (7/1), Pick Of Any (7/1), City Of Angkor Wat (7/1), Sheer Intensity (8/1), Major Muscari (9/1), Moi Aussie (16/1), Life of Fame (16/1), Dazeekha (20/1), Dr Red Eye (20/1), Golden Cape (50/1)

Verdict

Best of luck to anybody getting involved with this. The logical choices would appear to be Prince Of Time and Isntshesomething given their current form levels. Neither have a career profile that make the forecast odds look tempting. Pick Of Any needs to find a bit extra from this mark and a poor draw. Dazeekha and Moi Aussie are worth noting in the market. LIFE OF FAME has slipped down the weights and returns to a track which has seen her best two efforts. She shapes as though this trip will suit and appeals at the likely odds given she has a chance to improve on recent performances.
  1. Life of Fame
