His three most recent wins have all come at Southwell but very much capable on his day on turf. Likes some cut in the ground and could go well off a lenient looking mark with the yard in fine form.
Not beaten far in a Class 2 contest at Thirsk last time out but still 7lb above his last winning mark and this looks a deeper contest.
Went close at Windsor in April but couldn't back that up over C&D last time. Not won since 2015 and while he's on his highest winning mark now, others look better treated.
Not won since 2015 and finished last at Newcastle when last seen but fresh may just be the time to catch him and he's so well handicapped on his old form that he is impossible to rule out. Any rain would be a bonus.
Has moved yard a fair amount already in her career and not beaten far on yard debut for this outfit at Newcastle last week. Booking of this jockey could well be in her favour and looks well-handicapped on some of her form. Concern would be softer conditions as most of her form is on a syntheitc surface or on going with firm in the description.
14-time winner in his career but never won off a mark as high as this and not been in quite the same form in 2017 as he was last year. Probably in need of more relief from the handicapper.
Very effective from the front but he failed to justify favouritism here last time and all his wins have come over 6f so looks up against it from above his career high winning mark.
Smart front-runner who was a bit of a revelation on the AW this winter, never been as good on turf but able to compete off a far lower turf mark so should get competitive at some stage. Suspicion is that he would want faster conditions than what he'll get here though.
Forecasts
Pettochside (7/2), Zac Brown (9/2), Fredricka (5/1), Ladweb (11/2), Seamster (8/1), Intibaah (10/1), Dungannon (10/1), Waseem Faris (10/1)
The Andrew Balding stable have been in flying form over the past month and Dungannon looks capable of running well off a lenient looking mark. Fredricka may be able to build on her yard debut and gets the services of Silvestre De Sousa in the saddle but it's INTIBAAH who makes most appeal. While his record is patchy to say the least, he may be best after a break and he can't be ignored off a fair looking handicap mark.
- Intibaah
- Dungannon
- Fredricka
