Best form has come on the AW and has a bit to prove after a disappointing effort last time out. The step back in trip may help and has been dropped 2lb after a lacklustre effort at Wolverhampton, so feasible that topweight won't be too much of a bother in this company.

Comes here on the back of her best effort to date behind a potentially useful individual at Wolverhampton. She showed marked improvement for the step up to 1m4f and may well continue to progress now upped a further 2f. One to bear in mind if the market swings in her favour.

Won off a mark of 67 on the AW at Kempton but has been exposed under 7lb higher back on turf. Handicapper now relenting and drops in grade today, but still has a bit to prove.

Made the most of a handy mark to win at Wolverhampton back in March but has struggled under a revised mark and now has something to prove. Starting to see some headway with the handicapper again but may need more assistance than just the 3lb claim offered by today's rider.

Returned from a gelding operation with a couple of sound performances and may have more to offer now tacking a couple of extra furlongs. Yard always respected with its raids on Flat racing's prize-money. One for the shortlist.

Little encouragement to be taken from his three starts so far. But makes his handicap debut at a modest level and, with his yard in good form, he merits a second look in the betting.

The yard has enjoyed plenty of fun with horses that race in these colours. The evidence of this colt's three starts so far, suggests there may be a little longer to wait for the next party to start.

Forecasts

Dominating (2/1), Amadeus Rox (11/4), Stragar (5/1), Plage Depampelonne (7/1), Ladofash (8/1), Red Caravel (11/1), Astrostorm (25/1)

Verdict

A chance is taken that AMADEUS ROX can keep things ticking over for his predominately Jumps orientated yard. Now a gelding, the three-year-old looks to be in need of a good test of stamina and, given his trainer's forte is with stamina-laden horse, the portents for improvement look good. Plage Depampelonne also catches the imagination as one that can progress further now she being asked to dig into her reserves of stamina, while Red Caravel can also play strong part if he responds to the first-time headgear.
  1. Amadeus Rox
  2. Plage Depampelonne
  3. Red Caravel
