Tawfeer^p¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Nicola Currie⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 46

20/1

Improved on debut for this yard when just touched off on soft ground over 1m at Brighton earlier this month. However others make more appeal at today's weights.

Topmeup^v¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Matt Cosham⁽³⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 57| D

3/1

Completing a double when successful on heavy ground at Ffos Las over an extended 7f last month. Has run well in defeat since but more needed if she's to take this.

Form: 441125

Majestic Girl¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Flook| OR: 39

200/1

18 race maiden and well beaten of late including over hurdles at Towcester (good-to-firm) last time out. Likely to struggle once more.

Forecasts

Sans Souci Bay (11/4), Lexington Sky (11/4), Topmeup (3/1), Vibes (7/1), Oakley Pride (12/1), Tifl (20/1), Tawfeer (20/1), Majestic Girl (200/1)

SANS SOUCI BAY can make a winning debut for this yard and follow up his C&D win in a selling event last time out. The selection has the ground to suit once more and can get the better of Vibes who finished well beaten upped to 1m last time out and should prove better suited by this return to 7f. Of the remainder Lexington Sky is fitted with cheekpieces for the first time and can claim third on her first foray into claiming company.
