100/1
Steps up in trip after two poor efforts over sprint 6f and 7f. Shown little up to press but will at least qualify for a handicap mark after this.

66/1
Made the frame in a couple of bumpers but form on the Flat has been modest at best. Tries a new trip but already exposed and difficult to see her having much impact here.

1/2
Beaten just a head on debut over 1m2f on debut at Wetherby; form reads well in he context of this race. Drop in trip shouldn't be a problem and looks the one to beat at this stage.

2/1
Returned with at sound effort at Doncaster followed by a couple of promising performances at Ripon; likely to run his race but limitations already exposed. Current mark of 78 will make life tough in handicaps, so well worth another shot at this level.

Interest on pedigree but yard not noted for first-time out winners and may need more time.

9/1
Got going too late on debut at Kempton but still showed signs of promise. Comes a long way for this (Charlie Hills' only runner on the card) and makes some appeal for a place at least.

High Anxiety
Age: 3|  Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Beasley| T: J R Weymes
33/1
Retained by the vendor for £18,000 as a yearling and has a likeable pedigree. Worth a betting check but more than like to need the experience.

Forecasts

Born To Be Alive (1/2), Lamloom (2/1), Drumochter (9/1), High Anxiety (33/1), Donnachies Girl (66/1), Red Star Dancer (66/1), Chinese Spirit (66/1), Brendan (100/1)

Verdict

This appears to revolve around Lamloom and BORN TO BE ALIVE, and with the latter holding more scope for improvement, Karl Burke's colts edges preference on this occasion. Drumochter comes a long way for this and doesn't have too much to find to claim a place in the frame. High Anxiety has been handed a modest-level introduction and is another to note with an eye to the future.
