Takeonefortheteam¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Mr Ryan Holmes⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 67

4/1

Promise in novice events before finishing second of seven on handicap debut over 6f at Wolverhampton. Has gone up 4lb, but first attempt at this longer trip promises to suit.

Form: 455-2

(7)

Agent Error^b¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J P Spencer| T: D M Simcock| OR: 66

5/2

Three quiet runs as a juvenile, but first run in handicap company saw her finish a running-on second of seven at Newcastle. Up 3lb, but step up in distance looks sure to suit and leading jockey retains the ride.

Form: 787-2

(1)

Fiery Breath^t¹⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: M Harley| T: R Eddery| OR: 65WS

6/4

Glimpses of ability in three starts as as a juvenile. Makes his handicap debut following a wind operation and is worth keeping an eye on in the betting market.

Form: 459-

(5)

Inch Pincher²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S M Levey| T: Rae Guest| OR: 61

12/1

Sent off at big prices on all three starts, showing a modicum of promise on the last of them at Kempton. Makes her handicap debut and further progress could see her get involved.

Form: 00-6

(3)

Brockey Rise²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Fran Berry| T: P D Evans| OR: 60

25/1

Landed a nursery at Thirsk last summer, but that remains his only win in 12 starts. Much more exposed than the majority of his rivals and is opposed on that basis despite a falling handicap mark.

Form: 70956-6

Astroblaze¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Joey Haynes| T: M H Tompkins| OR: 59

16/1

Three quiet runs as a juvenile, but shaped much better in handicap company at Wolverhampton last time. Stable going quite well so she is not out of it with more improvement on the cards.

Form: 079-5

(2)

Royal Wave^v¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: L Morris| T: W J Knight| OR: 45

12/1

Has failed to hit the frame in six starts, the last three of them in handicaps. Has been beaten twice off this mark, but did not get the clearest of runs last time and jockey booking catches the eye.

Form: 00985-5

(8)

Runthatbymeagain¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Robbie Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 45

33/1

Well beaten in three starts for David Evans and was behind Astroblaze at Wolverhampton on her first start for current yard. Early days for her and she may do better.

Form: 705-9

Forecasts

Fiery Breath (6/4), Agent Error (5/2), Takeonefortheteam (4/1), Inch Pincher (12/1), Royal Wave (12/1), Astroblaze (16/1), Brockey Rise (25/1), Runthatbymeagain (33/1)

Top-weight Takeonefortheteam can do better stepped up in trip, but the same applies to AGENT ERROR, who ran well on her handicap debut at Newcastle and hails from a stable going well. Fiery Breath has had a wind operation and is worth keeping an eye on, while cases can be made for Inch Pincher, Astroblaze and Royal Wave.
