Wrenthorpe^p1²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Harry Russell⁽⁷⁾| T: B Smart| OR: 72

4/1

Proving his reliability and hasn't as yet finished out of the frame finishing second for the third time on his last start. Only had one handicap start but doesn't look particularly well treated; should run his race.

Form: 223-42

(6)

Palmer¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Callum Rodriguez⁽³⁾| T: P T Midgley| OR: 70

3/1

Returned to form out of the blue last time out looking to have been suited by the more positive tactics that were used. That was his best form since he joined this yard and would if he repeated it make him a player in this.

Form: 27-6482

(3)

Raffle King²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 63

9/2

Appears better on the AW and has had plenty of chances to get off the mark in the past. Has threatened in the past but overall others are better propositions here despite the easing mark.

Form: 3-23564

Laubali¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: C J McGovern⁽⁵⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 68

6/1

Both the Tapeta efforts were encouraging when he was starting out with this yard late last year. Shaped as if he needed the run when next seen although he did weaken rather tamely and others look stronger.

Form: 33043-0

Stewardess¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: J Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 66

4/1

If Whinmoor who goes in an earlier race on the card runs well then that would be a pointer to the chance of this one as he bounced back to form behind that one last time. Has shown some form over 5f and likely to be involved.

Form: 23-0292

(9)

Scoundrel^p1²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: T D Easterby| OR: 62

10/1

Yard are going well but this one will need to step forward on what he has achieved in four runs so far. Cheekpieces (first-time) and a drop in trip to 5f are two factors that may bring about that progress.

Form: 8407

(2)

Andys Girl^p¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁷⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 54

12/1

Returned to some sort of form last time out but has still to get off the mark with the cheekpieces she wore first-time on her last start retained. More needed now though in what looks to be a reasonable race for the grade.

Form: 25/44-02

(7)

Squirrelheed²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: Gabriele Malune⁽⁵⁾| T: R C Guest| OR: 45

100/1

Six starts on his CV so far and really hasn't shown that much so far and makes very little appeal from out of the handicap.

Form: 6900-08

Forecasts

Palmer (3/1), Wrenthorpe (4/1), Stewardess (4/1), Raffle King (9/2), Persian Prize (5/1), Laubali (6/1), Scoundrel (10/1), Andys Girl (12/1), Squirrelheed (100/1)

STEWARDESS turned in a decent effort last time out against one who looks a little ahead of his mark and she may well be able to open her account now having looked threatening that day. Wrenthorpe wears cheekpieces for the first time and this consistent sort deserves to win a race reverting to the minimum trip. Palmer needs to match his run of last time to have a chance in this with those positive tactics once again looking as though they would suit again. If there is one with some potential left then it’s the handicap debutante Persian Prize who is worth a try over 5f despite not looking thrown in off this mark.
