Episcia^t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Edward Greatrex| T: S C Williams| OR: 60

3/1

Disappointing in two Leicester sellers when favoured by the weights. More to do in similar grade conceding weight in a handicap.

Form: 003354

Moretti^h¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S H James| T: D O'Meara| OR: 56| BF

13/8

Has finished ahead of Episcia on her last two starts and weighted to do so again. Takes a keen hold but should get cover from her middle draw.

Sunstorm¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Aaron Jones⁽³⁾| T: D H Brown| OR: 55

5/1

Standout effort when runner-up in 7f Redcar maiden in September, but not so good since. Has been outpaced over 5f lately and this should be more his trip. Dropped 18lb from his initial mark and worth a market check in a race as bad as this.

Form: 007-600

Raven's Raft^v1⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Ryan Tate| T: M Appleby| OR: 54

Improved effort here last time but still a maiden after 12 starts. Visor on for first time and also entered Yarmouth 7:50 Wednesday.

Form: 0-93903

Casey Banter³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 47

9/1

Signalled a return to form at Chelmsford and has been placed on turf previously. Has every chance of going one better at this level.

Form: 030-082

Forecasts

Moretti (13/8), Episcia (3/1), Raven's Raft (9/2), Sunstorm (5/1), Casey Banter (9/1), Captivating Light (33/1)

Moretti has twice finished ahead of Episcia in recent starts and is weighted to do so again. Raven's Raft Ris due to run here on Wednesday and appeared to improve last time, albeit from a very low base. Sunstorm has form in better company and this is a more appropriate trip than has been the case lately. CASEY BANTER appeared to be coming to hand at Chelmsford when indicating she had a small race in her and they rarely come more modest than this.
