Mutineer²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Rob Hornby| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 72| D

11/8

Both wins to date have come over 1m on the AW, so though he might have his work cut out conceding weight to Enigmatic here but at least has his ideal conditions.

Enigmatic⁵⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D C Costello| T: J A Osborne| OR: 73| D

2/1

Off the mark at the second attempt at Chelmsford last time out in maiden company. The highest rated of any of these and the most likely to improve further, he looks to have a big chance on only the third run of his career.

Form: 4-1

Topmeup^v¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: L Morris| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 59| D

9/2

Has won three of her last five races and now makes her first start for this yard. Plenty to find with the principles on ratings but at least arrives here in good form.

Junoesque^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Joey Haynes| T: J Gallagher| OR: 58

9/2

Remains a maiden but has demonstrated that she has ability in the past, including when not beaten far over this trip at Chelmsford last time out. Should be capable of winning a low-grade handicap but one or two look too good for her here.

Forecasts

Mutineer (11/8), Enigmatic (2/1), Junoesque (9/2), Topmeup (9/2), Violet's Lads (11/2), Lady Morel (12/1)

ENIGMATIC has a very good chance here. Not only is he by a very long way the contender with the most potential improvement in him, he is already the highest rated of these and having already shown form on Polytrack is definitely the one to beat here. He receives 3lb from Mutineer who is seemingly the best of the rest and has also won on the surface in the past, while Topmeup is also of minor interest on her first start for Gay Kelleway.
