Banksy's Art¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Dane O'Neill| T: M R Channon| OR: 65

5/1

Best effort came over this trip on a soft surface in higher grade. Gelded after a poor run at York but otherwise usually gives his running and has to be on the shortlist.

Form: 546203

Kabrit²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Joshua Bryan⁽³⁾| T: A M Balding| OR: 65| BF

4/9

Can race with the choke out and the step up to 1m4f proved an expensive gamble. Should do better back at this trip and feasibly weighted if coping with the forecast conditions. Stable took this last year.

Form: 0-08343

(6)

Sicario²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rossa Ryan⁽³⁾| T: J A Osborne| OR: 63

7/1

Cheap purchase who has caught the eye on his last two starts and interesting here up in trip and by a sire who handled soft ground. Stable have been in great form and top claimer booked having dropped a further 2lb.

Form: 4-5748

Rainbow Jazz^b,e/s¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: N Mackay| T: A West| OR: 57| D

10/1

Broke his duck at the 16th attempt but conditions will be a lot slower here and a follow-up seems less likely in a stronger race.

Form: 090601

Parable^p1¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J L Flint| OR: 48

16/1

Beaten at least 10L on all seven starts including three handicaps. Cheekpieces on this time but still hard to be enthusiastic.

Forecasts

Kabrit (4/9), Sky Rocket (7/2), Banksy's Art (5/1), Sicario (7/1), Rainbow Jazz (10/1), Parable (16/1)

This looks tricky with the top four in the handicap all boasting solid claims. Sicario would be interesting if supported given his trainer's current form and two eyecatching runs in handicaps. Kabrit has a tendency to be too keen but was heavily supported last time and this shorter trip should be more suitable. Sky Rocket showed improved form last time despite being given a lot to do but BANKSY'S ART is just preferred. Mick Channon's charge usually gives his running and his best effort came on a soft surface over this trip in better company.
