Pixeleen¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Josephine Gordon| T: M S Saunders| OR: 90| CD

9/2

Just got up to score over C&D in June on firm ground, that's a car benchmark coming off a mark of 86, so this requires a bit extra but case helped by idea draw.

Our Lord¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: David Egan⁽³⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 82| BF| CD

7/2

Twice a C&D winner last month, both apprentice handicaps, will handle the ground and relishes this place but must cope with career-high mark now. Should be in the mix regardless.

Seamster^t³

Age: 10| Weight: 8-10| J: Laura Coughlan⁽⁷⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 76| D

12/1

Ten-year-old has been kept busy this year (25 runs) but continues to run consistently well, scoring over 6f at Lingfield last month from 2lb lower. This is a tougher contest however and others make more appear for win purposes.

Coronation Cottage¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Charlie Bennett⁽³⁾| T: M S Saunders| OR: 73| CD

9/1

Two wins from four starts over C&D this year, is up 6lb from most recent of those 17 days ago. Another bold bid not discounted but would prefer not to see any rain as best suited on sound surface.

Form: 331661

Storm Melody⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: George Wood⁽³⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 70| BF| CD

4/1

Is 1lb lower than winning this contest a year ago and while form since is nothing to get excited about, this is likely to have been the target for a yard not readily associated with sprinters.

Form: 4-57445

Showmethewayavrilo⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-2| J: L Morris| T: M S Saunders| OR: 68| CD

7/1

Former C&D winner and headed only in the dying strides 17 days ago off this rating, is happiest on decent ground but capable of going on slightly softer surface too.

Form: 654324

(5)

Dandilion^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-0| J: Hollie Doyle⁽³⁾| T: A M Hales| OR: 64| BF

6/1

Still lightly-raced but has been fairly consistent this year, overcame slow start to finish second over C&D last month, soft ground would be an unknown but one of the more likely sorts.

Jaganory^p¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-0| J: Jane Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: C Mason| OR: 63| CD

16/1

Three wins from seven starts at the track this year, all over this sort of trip, was denied the hat-trick last time out and is 3lb out of the handicap now (claim helps).

Form: 047114

Prominna²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-0| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 56| C

33/1

Former course winner, wasn't beaten all that far last month (1½L, third of five) and despite being wrong at the weights is one that will fancy a softer surface, should it prevail.

Form: 363436

(14)

Burauq^v¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-0| J: Ryan Powell| T: J M Bradley| OR: 52| CD

66/1

Former C&D winner, went well in two spins around here last month but is 14lb wrong on these terms and facing a wide draw, which makes things infinitely tougher.

Form: 419233

(3)

Essaka¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-0| J: Sophie Ralston⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 51| D

100/1

Has run some decent races here this season without looking like gaining a victory and would be a major shock should it arrive on these terms.

Forecasts

Our Lord (7/2), Storm Melody (4/1), Pixeleen (9/2), Dandilion (6/1), Showmethewayavrilo (7/1), Coronation Cottage (9/1), Seamster (12/1), Archimedes (12/1), Jaganory (16/1), Secret Agent (16/1), Captain Ryan (25/1), Prominna (33/1), Burauq (66/1), Essaka (100/1)

Plenty of these getting a raw deal on the terms today, which rather skews things. Pixeleen is in good heart and should be involved despite looking handicapped to the hilt while Our Lord is also high enough in the weight but loves this place and could go well back here having missed the four-timer at Sandown latest. Last year's winner Storm Melody is 1lb lower now and likely to have been aimed at this for some time while Showmethewayavrilo is respected but DANDILION might be the answer. She rarely has an off day and was perhaps a bit unlucky last time here. Softer ground would be an unknown, but she looks worthy of siding with and should be rattling home as good as anything.
