Vanity Vanity³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Egan| T: D J Coakley| OR: 69

6/1

Better effort on third start in a novice contest at Salisbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month. Potentially can build on that now from workable opening handicap mark.

Form: 064

Bajan Gold^t³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Harry Bentley| T: S C Williams| OR: 68

10/3

Seven-race maiden, easily held (last of seven) on reappearance at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month. Must improve for the longer trip to be in the mix.

Form: 45892-0

Tour de Paris^p1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 67

18/1

Champs Elysees colt, cost 20,000 gns as a yearling, didn't achieve a lot in three runs last year, well fended off on reappearance at Salisbury over this trip and needs a decent chunk of improvement.

Form: 084-0

Black Medusa¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Raul Da Silva| T: P & O Cole| OR: 66

7/2

Bit keen on return from a break when finishing fourth (beaten 2¾L) over a mile here last month. Potentially can build on that now meeting a longer trip for the first time.

Form: 947-64

(8)

Show Of Force¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 66

9/1

Cracking effort last month at Chepstow over this trip (good to firm) would give him claims here but failed to repeat the trick since at Doncaster. Has run his best two races at the Welsh venue.

Form: 215-626

(5)

Compulsive¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Winston| T: G & J Moore| OR: 65

20/1

Lope De Vega colt has yet to convince in five starts, sent off 25/1 and never a significant threat at Goodwood (1m2f, good) on debut for this trainer recently.

Form: 777-88

(4)

Vlannon²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: M Madgwick| OR: 64

16/1

Showed a bit more on third outing at Lingfield (7f, good) recently, his first turf start. Goes up in distance now and cannot be ruled out of showing improvement now tackling a handicap.

Form: 974

(2)

Mom Said^t1²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: P Cosgrave| T: E Walker| OR: 63

8/1

Fair form as a juvenile at up to 1m and there was something to like about his return\handicap debut over 1m at Pontefract but didn't convince on first attempt at this trip since ay Haydock (good to soft) so has something to prove still.

Form: 069-08

(6)

Destinys Rock³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 62

16/1

Maiden, placed twice over an extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton earlier this year. Well beaten following a break last time and more needed here.

Form: 56-338

Forecasts

Bajan Gold (10/3), Black Medusa (7/2), Seaborough (5/1), Vanity Vanity (6/1), Mom Said (8/1), Show Of Force (9/1), Destinys Rock (16/1), Vlannon (16/1), Tour de Paris (18/1), Compulsive (20/1)

BLACK MEDUSA defied early keenness to run a decent race over a mile here last month and could be set for an improved showing if settling better over this longer trip. Show Of Force has done her best work so far at Chepstow but will be a player if taking to this venue while Vlannon and Vanity Vanity have been offered some chance by the handicapper starting out in this sphere.
