Clear Water^b1³³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: F Norton| T: M Wigham| OR: 77

6/1

Fair pieces of form in 15-race career, but well held on recent outings. Looks to have a tough task off top weight against a couple of progressive rivals, but first-time blinkers may eke out some improvement.

Form: 0406-80

Kodicat¹³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 69

7/1

Several solid displays in handicaps last year, but could not win off this sort of mark. Consistent and likely to run her race.

Reedanjas^t1,v²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 66| CD

12/1

Off the mark on the AW over C&D in January, but unable to follow up off 4lb higher in two runs since. Down 1lb, but needs to take a step forward in a first-time tongue tie.

Form: 338-163

Good Business⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: H Spiller| OR: 63| CD

11/4

Showed promise when trained by Jeremy Noseda, but has made big strides since joining current stable, winning both her starts over C&D in handicap company. Has been raised 12lb for those successes, but may still be ahead of the handicapper.

Form: 4944-11

Mythical Spirit²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 62| CD

3/1

Generally progressive for James Tate, but switch to current yard has seen her take another step forward, culminating in the defeat of a good yardstick over C&D. A rise of only 3lb looks more than fair.

Form: 5463-21

Forecasts

Good Business (11/4), Mythical Spirit (3/1), Temeraire (3/1), Clear Water (6/1), Kodicat (7/1), Reedanjas (12/1)

First-time blinkers need to galvanise top-weight Clear Water, but even if they do so she has plenty on her plate conceding weight to Good Business and MYTHICAL SPIRIT, who both look progressive and can continue to improve. The latter beat a fair sort last time and has been raised only 3lb so she gets a narrow vote. Temeraire and Kodicat look to be on stiff marks, while Reedanjas will need to improve in a first-time tongue tie,
