Glens Wobbly⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 9-8| J: Poppy Bridgwater⁽⁷⁾| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 71| C

8/1

Has run well enough in three starts for this trainer, two of them around here, without threatening to win. Back up in trip, likely to be settling for minor role again.

Form: 450-443

High Wells^p1⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Finley Marsh⁽⁵⁾| T: S Durack| OR: 70| C

13/8

Gone down fighting in second in two recent starts here over 1m5f, mark unchanged for latest of those, should go well once more with new cheekpieces added.

Form: 12-6022

Galileo's Spear^p1,t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 68

11/2

Best form has come on a rattling fast surface and trainer has his string in fine tune right now, remains a maiden however and lack of consistency has to rank a concern.

Form: 357234

Kath's Legacy^p¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: George Rooke⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 67

15/8

Made all to score in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Chepstow this month (1m4f, good to firm). Runs from 3lb higher mark now and stamina is not assured on first attempt at this distance.

Form: 5-90231

King Calypso²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: Fran Berry| T: D J Coakley| OR: 64

5/1

Five-times AW winner, but is 0-21 on turf following latest reverse at Chepstow. Rated much higher on the AW, but doesn't seem ready to take advantage of mark in this sphere.

Form: 356-035

Forecasts

High Wells (13/8), Kath's Legacy (15/8), King Calypso (5/1), Galileo's Spear (11/2), Glens Wobbly (8/1)

Kath's Legacy can be an awkward ride at times but she did score last time at Chepstow and resolved some of the concerns over her stamina by staying a mile and a half. That said, she faces further this time and could be vulnerable given her quirks so the vote goes to HIGH WELLS, who has twice settled for second here recently and could pull out some with new headgear added from an untouched mark this time. Glens Wobbly and Galileo's Spear are likely to be in the skirmishes for minor money.
