25/1

Doesn't look the force of old and has been struggling in low level handicaps of late. Up against it here on these terms dropped to a seller.

Poor maiden who will struggle on these terms.

4/5

The best of these at his peak and hasn't appeared to be in love with the blinkers the last twice. They are left off this time and top rider booked for this significant drop in grade. Should be very competitive at this level.

Ousden^p1³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley⁽⁵⁾| T: M J Attwater

100/1

Two lifeless efforts so far in novice races. Cheekpieces go on for the first time but would need to improve leaps and bounds to trouble a couple of these.

Philba^t³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: A Kirby| T: P D Evans| OR: 88| D

5/4

Decent handicapper on his day. Hasn't shown much in two starts so far this year. Top rider is booked for this drop into a seller and if anywhere near his best he will go very close.

Form: 2/390-75

Shining Valley³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan⁽⁵⁾| T: B R Johnson| OR: 57

16/1

Beaten a long way in three novice events so far. Will need to take a big step forward to trouble the principles here.

Forecasts

Mr Bossy Boots (4/5), Philba (5/4), Mamillius (7/2), Shining Valley (16/1), Chelwood Gate (25/1), Favorite Story (100/1), Ousden (100/1)

It would be no surprise to see a slightly better showing from Mamillius now dropped into a seller but he may struggle to give weight away to both MR BOSSY BOOTS and Philba. Preference is for the former who has been performing slightly the better of late and he can take advantage of this much weaker race than he is used too.
