Captain Lars^b²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: A Watson| OR: 81| CD

9/2

A terrific servant who has won seven races so far this year. Mark is on the upper level now in terms of handicapping but very likely to run his race once again.

Form: 143153

(7)

Island Of Life^t⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Georgia Cox⁽³⁾| T: W J Haggas| OR: 79| BF| D

4/6

Progressive sprinter who ran another cracker in a stronger race than this at Ascot (5f, good to firm) last week. Races of same mark here and riders claim makes her chances very appealing indeed.

Form: 3-43132

(3)

Justice Lady^h1¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: S W Kelly| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 77| D

14/1

Not been with her yard for very long and they tend to do well with these sprinting types. She's not shown much this year but is now 3lb below her last winning mark and any market support would need noting with the hood on first time.

Form: 10-0575

Normal Equilibrium³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: J Mitchell| T: I Furtado| OR: 76| D

10/1

Best at this trip and is starting to look attractively handicapped. Likes to lead so stall 1 in a bonus but likely to get some pace pressure from Krystallite here so probably opposable once more.

Form: 1970-55

(2)

Secretfact¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: P Cosgrave| T: M S Saunders| OR: 75| D

10/1

Struck form the last twice winning off 4lb lower at Bath and then a close-up second at Ffos Las last time. Off this mark. Should run his race once more from a good draw and has solid place claims.

Form: 1-45912

(6)

Krystallite^b²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 65| CD

10/1

Front-runner who is at her best when able to dominate. Bolted up here over C&D three starts back but is 7lb higher in the weights now and likely to get some pace pressure Normal Equillibrium and probably opposable as a result.

Form: 172157

(4)

Red Stripes^b¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-2| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 55| D

50/1

Yet to win in 22 starts and hard to make a solid case for him racing 8lb wrong at the weights here.

Form: 568854

Outrage⁹

Weight: 9-7| Age: 6

T: D & C Kubler J: Non Runner

Forecasts

Island Of Life (4/6), Captain Lars (9/2), Outrage (11/2), Secretfact (10/1), Krystallite (10/1), Normal Equilibrium (10/1), Justice Lady (14/1), Red Stripes (50/1)

This should be run at a good clip with Krystallite and Normal Equillibrium both likely to go forward so could be set up for a closer. Justice Lady is on a nice mark now and with the hood added she looks a player having not been with Robert Cowell for long. Clear preference though is for ISLAND OF LIFE who ran really well in a stronger race than this at Ascot last week and looks like a sprinter on the upgrade.
