Red Tea¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Finley Marsh⁽⁵⁾| T: P W Hiatt| OR: 91| D

7/4

Ran a blinder to be second at Newmarket (1m, good to soft) on return two weeks ago. Rider lost his whip close home. Nudged up in the weights but riders claim offsets more than that and strong claims again if handling these softer conditions today.

Form: 46039-2

Seduce Me^p³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: K R Burke| OR: 90| D

6/1

Conditions will suit this filly who enjoyed a good spell last summer with back-to-back wins at Newbury and Epsom before running well from 1lb higher than today at Newmarket. Could benefit from her reappearance run in this weaker contest.

Form: 11346-8

Mama Africa²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Jane Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: T D Barron| OR: 80| D

11/2

Has relished the Fibresand surface at Southwell lately winning twice there and going well last time. Nudged up another 4lbs for that effort so this will require a clear career best to win this on the switch back to turf.

Form: 2011-42

Kyllachys Tale²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: J Mitchell| T: R A Teal| OR: 79| D

16/1

Likes to bowl along in the lead and did so when winning at Newbury and Windsor last summer. Higher marks have proved troublesome since and she finished 10L behind Mama Africa on return at Southwell. Could come on for that run but needs to do more.

Form: 12108-6

Feathery^t³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: R Kingscote| T: C Fellowes| OR: 78| BF

8/1

Still a maiden but was backed into joint favourite at Doncaster last time but was well beaten. This step up in trip looks a good move and is on a fair mark but need to see more before backing with any confidence.

Form: 3/02-330

Prying Pandora^p1¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-5| J: P Mathers| T: R A Fahey| OR: 74| D

5/1

Back below her last winning mark and shaped better than bare form on return here last month when getting caught in a pocket as they quickened. That was her first run after a wind op and every chance she can improve now with cheekpieces added.

Form: 62509-7

Forecasts

Red Tea (7/4), Prying Pandora (5/1), Mama Africa (11/2), Seduce Me (6/1), Feathery (8/1), Pattie (9/1), Kyllachys Tale (16/1)

Red Tea is likely to be bang there once again after her terrific comeback effort last time. Seduce Me is feared and none of them would want Kyllachys Tale to get soft lead. The selection though is PRYING PANDORA who’s comeback effort here was full of promise and having slipped below her last winning mark, she can take this with the cheekpieces on for the first time.
