Dark Blue²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: Raul Da Silva| T: M R Channon| OR: 59

2/1

Has couple of good efforts to her name lately, but both of those over a mile and no saying this drop back to 7f will be a positive, especially as there's not that much pace on here. Obvious chance on form, but others preferred.

Puramente²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: D C Costello| T: J Hughes| OR: 58

9/2

Stuck to the task to finish fourth at Chepstow latest, that being over a mile, and drop back to 7f on a quicker surface is not guaranteed to produce the same results. Not drawn that well either and makes minimal appeal.

Form: 0774

Secratario^p1⁶⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 58

6/1

Had no chance in a match race latest, but had looked to be getting the hang of things on his previous start at Lingfield. Cheekpieces here may help and yard among the winners, so some positives to take, and is well drawn.

Form: 052

Disapproval^h⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: George Downing| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 57

14/1

Decent enough debut at Brighton in May but it's all been backward steps since then. Well beaten latest and needs to turn things around if she's to hold any chance here.

Form: 7059

Arachina^v⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Dane O'Neill| T: H J L Dunlop| OR: 57

33/1

Made some late headway from well off the pace to finish midfield on latest start, and step up to 7f will help, but poorly drawn here and not really showing enough to think she's a threat to the principals.

Form: 0058

Harbour Seal^p1²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Jack Osborn⁽⁷⁾| T: H Spiller| OR: 55

10/1

Showed good speed to lead them at Chepstow on latest start but the heavy ground found her out, and she faded late. Handicap debut here and may do better for the cheekpieces. Not badly drawn and with little pace around, may lead again.

Form: 776

Deauville Society^p1⁴⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 55

15/2

Not doing anything at present to suggest she's up to this task, looking devoid of pace at times. Cheekpieces go on, but a very poor draw doesn't help and she looks an unlikely winner.

Form: 00550

Elusive Bird⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Liam Jones| T: G C Bravery| OR: 55

50/1

Looks ready for a step up in trip after staying on from the rear over 6f last time out, but that form is very moderate and she's hard to make a solid case for.

Form: 05007

Kalakchee^p1³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-0| J: K Shoemark| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 52

20/1

A bit of promise to be taken form his debut at Wolverhampton but the form of that hasn't worked out, and it's been downhill since then. Gets headgear tonight but a leap of faith required now. Makes only minimal appeal.

Rue Cambon^b1⁵²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-9| J: S Hitchcott| T: G Peckham| OR: 47

20/1

Looks very moderate and signs of temperament crept in last time as well too. Connections reach for the blinkers but it looks more in hope than anything else.

Form: 8970

Roses In June²⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-7| J: J P Fahy| T: J S Moore| OR: 45

20/1

On her tenth start already, and looks very limited. Has hit the frame a couple of times and has run okay at the track, but on balance, surely more likely winners after a terrible effort last time.

Forecasts

Dark Blue (2/1), Puramente (9/2), Istanbul Pasha (9/2), Secratario (6/1), Bullseye Bullet (6/1), Deauville Society (15/2), Harbour Seal (10/1), Watch Tan (10/1), Disapproval (14/1), Kalakchee (20/1), Roses In June (20/1), Rue Cambon (20/1), Arachina (33/1), Elusive Bird (50/1)

Low-grade stuff and a degree of caution is advised. HARBOUR SEAL got stuck in the mud at Chepstow last time but this could be more to her liking and a chance is taken on her to get off the mark on her handicap debut. Bullseye Bullet needs to show he's as effective on this surface as turf but looked to be getting the hang of things on his latest start and might progress a bit again. Secretario comes form a yard among the winners and is another that should progress tonight.
