Below form after a slow start at Beverley on penultimate outing, and not the best away at Ayr last time, but recovered to score readily. That wasn't a great contest, however, and she will need more to defy a 4lb rise.

Slow starts have become the norm for her, but she looked better than ever when winning at Doncaster (6f) last time; 5lb rise less of a problem than drop in trip at this sharp track.

9/4
Won 6f maiden at Ripon and minor event at Pontefract in May, but found things tougher since sent handicapping. Not discredited last time, but others may have her measure again.

Claims on his close third over C&D in June, but his form has dipped on recent starts, and he needs to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces.

Finished strongly after being outpaced to win at Pontefract (5f) last month, but followed that with a poor run at Doncaster recently, and may find this test too sharp.

Forecasts

Harrogate (6/4), Angels (9/4), Fool For You (6/1), Seen The Lyte (7/1), Billy Dylan (11/1), Zumurud (22/1)

Verdict

HARROGATE shaped well in first-time blinkers at York, doing just too much in front, and he looks set to get an easier time of things on the sharp end here, especially with two of his main rivals, Seen The Lyte and Fool For You, prone to missing the break.
  1. Harrogate
  2. Seen The Lyte
  3. Fool For You
