Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Oakley Brown⁽⁷⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 80| D

15/8

Placed on his last two starts most recently when beaten a neck at Haydock (6f, good-to-firm) earlier this month. Has run well here in the past and is one for the shortlist despite a 1lb rise in the weights.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: J Garritty| T: T D Easterby| OR: 79| D

5/1

Successful over 7f at Wetherby (good-to-soft) in May. Disappointing in handicaps the last twice however and more needed on this occasion.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 78

Beaten just ½L when finishing runner-up over 5f here a month ago. Raised 2lb for that effort and tackling this trip for just the second time.

Form: 81-3032

Enzo's Lad²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: C Lee⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 75| D

7/2

Wore cheekpieces (absent here) for the first time when winning over 6f at Yarmouth (good-to-firm) in April. Best effort in two starts since came when finishing runner-up in a classified event at Pontefract (6f, good-to-firm) earlier this month.

Form: 4-46182

Coastal Drive⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: A Mullen| T: P T Midgley| OR: 65

12/1

Maiden after nine starts but beaten just a neck when runner-up over C&D in March. Disappointing since and making his return from a break.

Form: 6-52570

Skyva²⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁷⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 63| D

9/1

Off the mark at the seventh attempt when winning over 6f at Wolverhampton in November. Raised 4lb for that success and worth a check in the market on seasonal debut.

Forecasts

Lucky Lucky Man (15/8), Dandy's Beano (3/1), Enzo's Lad (7/2), I Know How (9/2), Symposing (5/1), Soldier's Minute (7/1), Skyva (9/1), Coastal Drive (12/1)

LUCKY LUCKY MAN can gain a deserved first handicap success in this sprint handicap. The selection has placed on his last two starts and can get the better of Enzo's Lad who returns to handicap company following a good placed effort in a classified event last time. I Know How placed on turf last time out and is taken to finish third on this occasion.
