Seamster^t¹⁰

Age: 11| Weight: 9-9| J: Laura Coughlan⁽⁷⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 72| CD

7/1

C&D winner who is now in the veteran stage of his career but retains his enthusiasm finishing 4th here last time turning in a creditable effort without looking likely to win. Mark falling but still looks vulnerable to younger legs.

Form: 7-53934

(7)

Classic Pursuit^v¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: S De Sousa| T: M Appleby| OR: 70| CD

7/2

Twice a C&D winner he's not one to trust totally often being slowly away and giving himself a lot to do. Actually forced the pace on his last start but soon dropped away and given his temperament issues he's left alone here.

Form: 833280

(4)

Dapper Man^b¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Sanderson⁽⁷⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 70| D

5/2

Just denied a hat-trick last time by one who had dropped to a good mark and only just touched off. A three-time winner earlier in the season he now has to improve again off this mark but the trainer is going well of late.

Form: 144112

(5)

Musharrif¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: G C O'Neill⁽⁵⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 69| CD

7/2

Given even more chance by the handicapper now (6lb below last winning mark) having shaped well enough last time at Pontefract over this trip. Work to do with Dapper Man though and the losing run is starting to build.

Form: 555-706

(2)

You're Cool¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Hart| T: J Balding| OR: 67| D

16/1

Behind Seamster over C&D last time but raced alone towards the stands side and that left him vulnerable. Has been in a bit of lull of late but will be very well handicapped if/when he does find his form.

Form: 113-506

(1)

Secret Agent⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: George Wood| T: W R Muir| OR: 61| D

12/1

Got back to some sort of form last time out returned to the AW having shown very little this season so far (raced off the pace). Overall record isn't that appealing though (1/16) and back on turf others are stronger in this.

Form: 254-865

(3)

Kingstreet Lady^b⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: Jane Elliott⁽³⁾| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 57| D

6/1

Holding her form well and finished a good 2nd last time out with three-year-olds filling the places around her. Looks as though she can compete off this mark and be thereabouts again.

Form: 352122

Forecasts

Dapper Man (5/2), Musharrif (7/2), Classic Pursuit (7/2), Kingstreet Lady (6/1), Seamster (7/1), Secret Agent (12/1), You're Cool (16/1)

A tight little event in which nearly all of them can be given some sort of chance off their current marks with the handicapper giving some of them a chance. Dapper Man comes from a yard in good form in recent days and it would come as no surprise to see him back to winning form with Kingstreet Lady another consistent type. However there are a couple lurking off good marks here if they come back to form and the chance may be worth taking that they will. You’re Cool is one of those protagonists having shown up well here last time but MUSHARRIF looks the most interesting despite finishing behind Dapper Man last time with him being a winner off much higher a year ago; he could on the way back.
