Little Miss Kodi^b1³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Toby Eley⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 75| D

25/1

Disappointing in two starts since finishing runner-up over 7f at Carlisle (good-to-firm) in May. Races off a mark 1lb lower than when finishing a close fourth over 7f at Kempton last October and fitted with blinkers for the first time today.

Form: 44-8260

Alouja^p1³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Josephine Gordon| T: H Palmer| OR: 76

10/1

Maiden after six starts and well beaten when making her handicap debut over 7f at Newmarket (good-to-firm) a month ago. Drops in class here and wears cheekpieces for the first time.

Form: 48-3329

Flourishing²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Oisin Murphy| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 75| BF

5/2

Maiden winner over an extended 7f at Chester (good-to-soft) last month and a sound effort when finishing third of 11 over 1m at Redcar (good-to-firm) on handicap debut later that month. Likely to run well again here.

Form: 7213

Dusky Maid⁴^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: F Norton| T: J G Given| OR: 68| CD

2/1

Winner twice already here this year including when easily drawing 6L clear of her rivals over 6f last week. Carries a 6lb penalty for that success and is likely to put in a bold show once more.

Form: 411261

Welsh Rose^h⁵²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Liam Keniry| T: E De Giles| OR: 67

28/1

Finished third of six over 6f at Lingfield on her seasonal debut in May but well held on turf over an extended 5f at Bath (firm) subsequently and seeking her first success returned to 7f here.

Form: 0356-35

Many A Tale²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: I Mohammed & J Santos| OR: 71| C

15/2

Debut winner over 6f here last August but failed to score in five subsequent starts. Fair effort when fourth of eight over an extended 7f at Ffos Las (good-to-soft) and represents a yard who have had a couple of winners of late.

Form: 143-54

(4)

Jumping Around³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Manuel Fernandes⁽⁷⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 67

10/1

Well beaten in all five starts since joining this yard and handicap mark is sliding as a result. Now rated 11lb lower than when placed at Salisbury over 6f last September.

Form: 2-85977

Langham^p,h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 60

33/1

Beaten 1L over C&D on her debut for this stable in January but disappointing since. Races off a mark 7lb lower than for that January placing in this.

Form: 6-45886

Clear As A Bell²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 64| D

11/1

Chasing a hat-trick following wins at Beverley (good-to-firm) and Redcar (good-to-firm) over around this trip. Races off a mark 3lb higher than for that Redcar success though poorly drawn today.

Form: 912811

Loveatfirstsight^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: R Ffrench| T: M J Attwater| OR: 57| BF

14/1

Ten race maiden but has run well when placed here the last twice. Finished 3½L third of 11 over this C&D last time out and races off a 3lb lower mark today.

Form: 3-60323

Forecasts

Dusky Maid (2/1), Flourishing (5/2), Many A Tale (15/2), Jumping Around (10/1), Alouja (10/1), Himalayan Queen (10/1), Clear As A Bell (11/1), Loveatfirstsight (14/1), Little Miss Kodi (25/1), Welsh Rose (28/1), Langham (33/1)

DUSKY MAID impressed when winning over 6f here last week and she can record her third victory at this track and second over this C&D by taking this. The selection came clear of her rivals on that occasion and can defy a penalty today. Flourishing made a satisfactory handicap debut on turf last time out and represents leading connections and Sir Michael Stoute's charge can get the better of the hat-trick seeking Clear As A Bell who can defy a wide draw to claim third in this.
