Croquembouche^p¹¹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-1| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: E De Giles| OR: 76| C

10/1

Improved on previous efforts when finishing fifth over 1m4f at Leicester (good-to-firm) recently. Likely more needed if he's to take this contest.

Form: 150-065

(4)

Volpone Jelois^p¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Megan Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: P F Nicholls| OR: 75| BF

13/8

In good form of late following up a Chepstow (1m4f, good-to-firm) victory with a second at Goodwood (1m3f, good-to-firm) last time out. Has run well over C&D in the past.

Form: 3-34212

(7)

Splash Around^p¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby| OR: 75

28/1

Struggled in two starts since joining this yard and handicap mark is falling as a result. Market support would be interesting.

Form: 3234-90

Glens Wobbly¹²

Age: 10| Weight: 9-11| J: Patrick Pilley⁽³⁾| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 72| CD

7/1

Five time C&D winner and made a promising debut for this yard when beaten 2L into fourth over 1m2f at Chepstow (good) last time out. Races off the same mark here and is an interesting runner in this.

Form: 31450-4

(5)

High Wells^b²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: S W Kelly| T: S Durack| OR: 68| C

16/1

Sole success came over an extended 1m3f here last August. Placed over hurdles since but well held in two starts since returning to the Flat.

Form: 4712-60

(6)

Amanto^p,t⁵⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: A Stronge| OR: 67| D

16/1

Improved on return from a break when finishing third at Lingfield (1m4f) in April. Struggled back on turf subsequently and others hold stronger claims.

Form: 162-535

(3)

Ready To Impress¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Oisin Murphy| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 76

7/4

Gelded during the winter and appeared to appreciate the step up in trip when finishing third over an extended 1m3f at Haydock (good-to-firm) recently. One for the shortlist stepping up in trip once more on handicap debut.

Form: 73-3

(8)

Sherzy Boy¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Hayley Turner| T: R Hannon| OR: 67

14/1

Seven race maiden and failed to figure in three starts since switching to handicap company. Probably best watched upped in trip.

Form: 649-088

Forecasts

Volpone Jelois (13/8), Ready To Impress (7/4), Glens Wobbly (7/1), Croquembouche (10/1), Sherzy Boy (14/1), High Wells (16/1), Amanto (16/1), Splash Around (28/1)

READY TO IMPRESS is the least exposed runner in this field and he can make a winning handicap debut in the hands of Oisin Murphy. The selection looks likely to try and make all here and he can get the better of Volpone Jelois who has made the frame in each of his last three Flat starts while Glens Wobbly, fourth on debut for this yard last time out can finish third.
