Suwaan¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 67| BF| D

5/2

Has run well on his last two starts but has looked vulnerable in a finish and still only has one win to his name over 5f on the AW. Capable of winning off this mark and the yard remain in form but his finishing effort remains a worry.

Form: 385523

(4)

Pavers Pride²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Adam J McNamara⁽³⁾| T: N Wilson| OR: 66| D

8/1

Dropped back to this trip last time and caused a 50/1 shock when winning a Thirsk maiden with give in the ground. Has been beaten off much lower marks in the past prior to his win and hard to know what to expect now off an inflated mark.

Form: 0-98501

Jeany¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: B Smart| OR: 65

7/2

Came back from a long break to run a very respectable race in a 5f maiden at Beverley (dominated a weak field). Failed to follow-up on the AW making her handicap debut off a mark of 65 but deserves another chance returned to turf.

Form: 2223-26

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Smart| OR: 64| D

9/1

Blinkers go on for the first time for one who is now dropping in the handicap after starting life in this sphere off a mark of 92. Last two runs have been disappointing though and best watched here after those efforts.

Form: 2187-50

(5)

Rapid Ranger^h1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Makin| T: D O'Meara| OR: 62

7/2

Should be capable of winning in handicaps based on his two-year-old form but still looks a little short of that even on his latest run on the AW over 6f. Now returned to shorter and with a hood on for the first time and more needed still.

Form: 24-3544

(1)

Luv U Always^p²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Jamie Gormley⁽⁷⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 50

10/1

Retains her unwanted maiden status after 12 runs with her last two runs not really giving much hope of that record including a win any time soon. Tried in cheekpieces once before and they return here although they didn't help much before.

Form: 02-2305

(8)

Fintry Flyer¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: S A Gray| T: J S Goldie| OR: 50

33/1

Looked to show some promise and ability for the first time on her last run over 6f and looks as though she could have some improvement to come on handicap debut. The drop to 5f does raise concern but not out of this.

Form: 789

(3)

Mr Enthusiastic¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: P Mathers| T: N Wilson| OR: 45

14/1

Although his last two runs have shown some slight improvement they have come in low grade handicaps and he'll have to improve again here from out of the handicap.

Form: 579924

Forecasts

Suwaan (5/2), Jeany (7/2), Rapid Ranger (7/2), Pavers Pride (8/1), Whiteandgold (9/1), Luv U Always (10/1), Mr Enthusiastic (14/1), Fintry Flyer (33/1)

Just a fairly low-grade affair with Suwaan sure to popular in the market but although he has some of the best form here his finishing efforts have looked a bit weak. Pavers Pride now has to cope with an inflated mark for a surprise maiden win at big odds and it remains to be seen how he copes with that. Rapid Ranger needs to show more and the two runners of interest here and potentially better than their marks are JEANY and Fintry Flyer. The former is given the nod due to her experience and return to turf but the latter could well show some more improvement on handicap debut.
