3/1

Got the run of the race when he was successful on his second handicap start at Wetherby (1m6f, heavy); looked full value for his win. Failed to back that victory up by a long margin back on the AW last time turning in a poor effort; same mark here.

Sassie²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: S Kirk| OR: 74

7/1

Unexposed over staying trips she showed that when getting off the mark last time at Brighton (1m4f, soft). The move back to turf also looked to suit her (found for pressure) and not ruled out off 4lb higher and 2f further.

Form: 4323-41

Deadly Reel^b³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R Kingscote| T: A Watson| OR: 69| BF

7/2

Maiden handicapper who looks to need to find a little more improvement yet in handicaps although this trip will hold no fears. Looks vulnerable to any improvers off this sort of mark which she's been beaten off before.

Form: 353-622

Dagueneau¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: James Doyle| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 67| BF

5/4

Shaped well last time out at Beverley when 2nd to Quantatmental with that one very much having the run of the race. He responded well though and looks as though this trip will suit him with progress off this mark; leading chance.

Form: 060-22

Parmenter²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: M Harley| T: A King| OR: 65

10/1

Looked the sort who would be better in handicaps but failed to fire on her debut in that sphere after a break on the AW. Easy to back on her next handicap start she didn't really make any progress back on turf (raced freely); has to learn to settle.

Forecasts

Dagueneau (5/4), River Glades (3/1), Quantatmental (3/1), Deadly Reel (7/2), Sassie (7/1), Parmenter (10/1), Sotomayor (10/1)

The key to this race looks to be the Beverley clash where Quantatmental beat DAGUENEAU and the latter is now fancied to reverse that form over this longer trip and getting more of the run of the race this time around. Sassie turned in a very creditable victory at Brighton last time impressing with her attitude and she deserves respect here trying this longer trip. River Glades needs to bounce back to form after a poor run last time while the consistent Sotomayor needs some help from the handicapper if he’s to win again.
