Jack Nevison^p¹⁰⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: R Winston| T: M Appleby| OR: 62| CD

9/2

C&D winner got involved in a pacemaker's duel here on return from a six month break in March. Another break since and plenty of competition for the lead raise concerns.

Form: 30715-3

Confident Kid^b1²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: David Probert| T: R Stephens| OR: 62

4/1

12-race former Godolphin recruit remains a maiden. Showed a few wayward tendencies on Yarmouth return and hopes are pinned on blinkers having an effect.

Form: 230-004

(11)

Stosur^v¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Aaron Jones⁽³⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 61| CD

9/1

Took advantage of a lenient mark at Lingfield but left it late. Remains nicely treated and she is probably better at 1m these days, but the anticipated strong pace here will help.

Form: 737351

Prazeres¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: S De Sousa| T: J L Eyre| OR: 59| D

5/2

Rider has a good strike rate for the yard but this one needs to bounce back from two below-par runs and a career record of 1-24 makes him even less attractive.

Form: 423500

Haraz^b,h¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: P Butler| OR: 58| C

50/1

Has never been an easy ride and he was handled with kidgloves to get off the mark here in March. A record of 1-42 tells you all you need to know.

Form: 412469

Shyarch⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Jane Elliott⁽³⁾| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 57| D

14/1

Won a Yarmouth seller (good-to-soft) last year but is equally effective on a faster surface too. Behind Jack Nevison here in September and looks held on that form.

Form: 64216-6

Emily Goldfinch^v1⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Seamus Cronin⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 55| D

6/1

Front-runner's only success in 22 starts came a year ago and she remains 5lb above that mark. Finds little when headed and that may explain the visor being tried for the first time.

Form: 448320

De Little Engine^p²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: George Wood| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 48

12/1

16-race maiden has twice made the frame in basement level handicaps. Well-drawn and cheekpieces go back on, but he is exposed as moderate.

Form: 426077

(5)

Amberine²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: J Quinn| T: M S Saunders| OR: 45

10/1

Lightly raced filly from a good small yard. Helped force the pace from out of the handicap on first attempt at this trip. Looked in need of stronger handling that day and she makes appeal in this lowly grade.

Form: 69-0463

(8)

Firesnake^p¹¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Gabriele Malune⁽⁵⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 45| C

33/1

Both his victories have come here over 6f. Has been placed at this longer trip, but he was in poor form when last seen and the run may be needed.

Form: 434250

Forecasts

Prazeres (5/2), Confident Kid (4/1), Jack Nevison (9/2), Emily Goldfinch (6/1), Kodiac Pearl (6/1), Stosur (9/1), Amberine (10/1), De Little Engine (12/1), Shyarch (14/1), Legal Mind (16/1), Cadeaux Boxer (16/1), Firesnake (33/1), Haraz (50/1)

A few of these like to press on and that will suit recent Lingfield winner STOSUR who likes to swoop late. The opposition have plenty to prove given most are difficult to win with, but Amberine has scope to build on a couple of good runs and Jack Nevison has recent C&D winning form.
