Joe's Spirit¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Tristan Price⁽⁷⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 78

7/2

Winner at Chelmsford City on the Aw earlier in the year over 6f he made his nursery debut on his last start and put in a display that still held potential. Looks likely to be suited by the step up to 7f here and with a clear run this time around he should give his running again.

Form: 2173

Di Fede³⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: P J Dobbs| T: R M Beckett| OR: 75

9/1

Now makes her handicap debut after being highly tried at Royal Ascot last time so lowers her sights here. A Kempton Park winner on her second start this mark looks a fairly stiff one.

Form: 510

General Zoff¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: D C Costello| T: W R Muir| OR: 73

14/1

Gradually finding some improvement now and goes handicapping after three maiden runs with a third last time out being his best so far. Has a decent pedigree and should be able to continue his upward curve.

Form: 063

Another Day Of Sun^v1¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: S De Sousa| T: M R Channon| OR: 72| BF

9/2

A beaten favourite on his last start he again ran below form and hasn't really gone on from his Thirsk success over 6f on good ground. Soft ground has looked a problem on his last two starts and he encounters such a surface again here going handicapping for the first time.

Form: 8163

Global Wealth²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: Josephine Gordon| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 71

9/2

His first run over this course (6f) was respectable enough but his two runs since have been a bit of a letdown especially his AW debut last time out. Now goes into handicaps but lacks the momentum in his form to be of interest here.

Form: 537

Noble Manners¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-12| J: Jim Crowley| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 69

7/2

Trainer has made an excellent start to the nursery season but this one needs to step up on his nursery debut last time out off a 2lb higher mark. That run came on ground with give so there is a question mark over ground conditions here and others are preferred.

Form: 42634

Situation^p1²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: K Shoemark| T: R C Guest| OR: 68

16/1

A non-runner at Yarmouth yesterday the cheekpieces are slipped on for the first time as he makes his second start in nurseries. Hardly impressed in his first start in this sphere and hard to see him in the mix here with others looking better handicapped.

Form: 4495

Isoletta³⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Liam Keniry| T: E Walker| OR: 67

10/1

Has progressed in her three maiden runs so far and turned in her best effort so far last time out on the AW. Now back on turf where she has shown ability before and looks the type to take to going into handicaps with this her debut in the sphere.

Form: 874

Forecasts

Noble Manners (7/2), Joe's Spirit (7/2), Global Wealth (9/2), Another Day Of Sun (9/2), Northern Law (8/1), Di Fede (9/1), Isoletta (10/1), General Zoff (14/1), Situation (16/1)

Five are making their handicap debuts here and that makes this a tricky contest to work out but JOE’S SPIRIT looks one to side with after his nursery debut last time out when he looked a little unlucky. Isoletta is at the other end of the weights she has shown some progression and has always looked the type to be better when going handicapping. Di Fede will appreciate the drop in grade but doesn’t look to be off a lenient mark and that makes Northern Law and General Zoff the pair of interest in front of that one.
