Isntshesomething^v¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: R C Guest| OR: 55| D

7/1

Enjoyed a successful spring, including a C&D success from 9lb lower and at Musselburgh win from 3lb lower. Went well in this grade last time and well drawn here.

Form: 217062

Satchville Flyer⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Fran Berry| T: P D Evans| OR: 55| C| D

5/1

Made hard work of collecting at Chepstow in June under this rider. Form has been patchy since but more than capable in this grade on one of his better days. Needs to overcome a tricky draw.

Form: 652852

Thechampagnesonice²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: S J Drowne| T: M S Saunders| OR: 54

33/1

Hard to recommend on present evidence. Makes handicap debut for a trainer who is 4-7 in the past 14 days.

Form: 845

Freddy With A Y⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Kieren Fox| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 54| D

14/1

Continues to slide down the weights but it is more than two years since he last won. Stable continue in dire form with no winners on the Flat since January. Poor draw to overcome too.

Form: 344950

Belgravian^p,t²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Watson| OR: 55

3/1

Has been too keen in recent races and is dropped slightly in trip. In form yard have employed a rider with a 9-31 record for them.

Form: U50630

(3)

Pulsating^p1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Liam Keniry| T: D Steele| OR: 54

25/1

Has won a couple of AW sellers and has been recently campaigning at much higher levels than this. Not as effective on turf and switch to this surface, off this mark, makes her interesting if cheekpieces work.

Form: 758570

Binky Blue^h¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: S W Kelly| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 52| D

12/1

Last win came off 13lb higher in March 2016. Has flattered to deceive since and hard to be sure that the promise of her latest run will be fulfilled.

Form: 735953

Bearag⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 54

10/1

Has failed to build on the promise of her first two career starts. Handicapper has been sympathetic and she is well drawn.

Form: 43-9767

(5)

Never Folding²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Winston| T: S Durack| OR: 53

6/1

Refuses to settle and the need for cover leaves her a hostage to fortune as was the case last time. Nicely handicapped on her best form and the drop to 7f is a plus. Well drawn to gain cover and to take advantage of the cut away.

Form: 050406

(6)

Encapsulated¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: R Ingram| OR: 51

33/1

Has not figured lately since being ridden with more restraint. Looks better over 6f and is now 5lb lower than when scoring at Chelmsford in February.

Form: 206097

(10)

Treagus⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ryan Tate| T: A Carson| OR: 52

20/1

Best form has come at Southwell so it was a surprise to see him run so poorly there last time. Hard to recommend at present.

Form: 9-34469

(12)

Ede's E Rider¹²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Paddy Bradley⁽⁵⁾| T: P Phelan| OR: 51

50/1

No show in both starts in handicaps and returns here following a four month break. Hard to see him being a factor.

Form: 706-90

(8)

Banta Bay⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Josephine Gordon| T: J R Best| OR: 50

8/1

Went well for this rider at Chelmsford last week when coming from last entering the straight to eventually finish third. Would appear to have a race as bad as this in him and yard are in form.

Form: 688083

Forecasts

Belgravian (3/1), Satchville Flyer (5/1), Never Folding (6/1), Isntshesomething (7/1), Banta Bay (8/1), Bearag (10/1), Binky Blue (12/1), Freddy With A Y (14/1), Treagus (20/1), Sir Jamie (20/1), Pulsating (25/1), Thechampagnesonice (33/1), Encapsulated (33/1), Ede's E Rider (50/1)

ISNTSHESOMETHING has a more consistent profile than most of these and her latest effort in similar grade suggests she is worth following. Banta Bay produced a more promising effort last time and will not be far away. Pulsating and Never Folding are two who could figure at decent odds, whilst Belgravian represents a solid trainer/rider combination.
