Havana Breeze²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Hayley Turner| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 65

8/1

Unexposed daughter of Teofilo makes handicap bow off top weight having shown a little promise on third and most recent start at Lingfield. Yard in form at present so warrants respect.

Form: 684

Sterling Silva²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Haslam| OR: 64

28/1

Won twice as a juvenile for previous connections but has struggled to trouble the judge over the last two years. Well beaten in selling/claiming company this year and is hard to fancy.

Form: 674-566

King Torus^b,t⁹

Age: 10| Weight: 9-6| J: B A Curtis| T: D Donovan| OR: 64| CD

14/1

Fair handicapper in his time and has won 12 races. Not scored though for three years and has plumetted down the weights. Eased a further 3lb after four starts in Ireland this term and looks up against it.

Form: 44/0090

Good winning juvenile who placed twice in Group 2 company. Not won since and handicap mark has crashed a massive 42lb since his pomp. Beaten out of sight at Brighton last time.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 63

12/1

Won Doncaster mile maiden last season for Roger Fell but hans't shone since joining new yard this campaign. Two poor runs on turf of late but ran respectably only previous effort on AW. Some improvement not ruled out.

Form: 68-0500

Beatbybeatbybeat^v⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 63| CD

13/2

Scored over C&D in April off 3lb lower mark. Usually runs well round here and has place prospects at least if things go her way.

Form: 123445

Demophon^b1²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Liam Jones| T: S Flook| OR: 62

10/1

Hinted at ability in three maiden and not disgraced on handicap debut at Nottingham last time when fifth over 10f on soft ground. First-time blinkers applied and drop back in trip should do no harm.

Form: 8375

The Groove⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Poppy Bridgwater⁽⁷⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 62

9/1

1-18, only win coming in 1m handicap at Salisbury last September off 1lb higher mark. Has shown little form though in threee runs this year and others are much preferred.

Form: 235-080

(9)

Shamlan^p⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Joshua Bryan⁽⁵⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 61| CD

7/1

Two of three wins have come here including at this trip and not disgraced last two runs since winning here in February. Should be there or thereabouts once again.

Form: 2-03105

(3)

Servo²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: P Aspell| T: Miss L C Siddall| OR: 60| CD

3/1

Hit form with a vengeance last month landing first win at Newcastle in May then following up off 4lb higher mark over C&D 25 days ago. Raised just 2lb for that length success and has every chance of completing a hat-trick if things go his way.

Form: 7/503-11

(8)

Glorious Asset²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: D Nolan| T: I Furtado| OR: 59| BF

10/1

Has ground to make up on Servo on running last time when sent off favoruite but finished only fifth. Not without a chance though and market should guide as to expectations.

Form: 217-877

(1)

Scrutiny^p¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Connor Murtagh⁽⁵⁾| T: K A Ryan| OR: 58| CD

7/1

66/1 won over C&D in amateurs event in January and has placed on three of his last five starts. Goes well here so another good show not ruled out getting weight all round.

Forecasts

Servo (3/1), Beatbybeatbybeat (13/2), Scrutiny (7/1), Shamlan (7/1), Havana Breeze (8/1), The Groove (9/1), Glorious Asset (10/1), Demophon (10/1), Wasm (12/1), King Torus (14/1), King Oswald (14/1), Palawan (20/1), Sterling Silva (28/1)

The booking of Luke Morris for DEMOPHON catches the eye and he can improve on his handicap debut and land the spoils. In-form Servo may prove a tough nut to crack as he bids for the three-timer, while others such as Savannah Breeze, Beatbybeatbybeat, and Shamlan have claims in an open affair.
