Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Watson⁽³⁾| T: H Main| OR: 55| C| D

12/1

Winner of a couple of races in 2017 but has twice been withdrawn when a soft surface has been deemed unsuitable. Top apprentice on board but forecast conditions an obvious worry.

Form: 031-076

Barista⁴⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 9-6| J: Patrick Pilley⁽³⁾| T: B Forsey| OR: 54| C| D

16/1

Winner of 10 races who has not been at his best this summer but who will be happier on this slower surface. Has won here twice over 7f.

Form: 003-508

(7)

Shoyd⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 52

8/1

Shed her maiden tag at Brighton last week but 1lb wrong in the weights under her penalty and facing different underfoot conditions. Her brother, Danecase, has done all his winning on better going.

Form: 84-0671

(11)

Royal Melody²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Mark Crehan⁽⁷⁾| T: H Main| OR: 48| D

10/1

Suited to these conditions and below her winning mark. In poor form lately but showed in 2017 she can bounce from a mediocre effort when conditions are right.

Form: 1230-08

(12)

Jazzy Girl¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Egan| T: B G Powell| OR: 54

4/1

Apart from a poor run over a longer trip she has been really consistent in 2018 and she can adapt to any going. Weighted to give another good account.

Form: 533273

(9)

Paco Filly¹²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: George Downing| T: Mrs N S Evans| OR: 48

33/1

Has shown a poor standard of AW form and stable have gone almost 400 days without a Flat winner. Makes turf debut on the slowest ground she has encountered.

Form: 0-86387

(6)

Jenoow^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: R Kingscote| T: K R Burke| OR: 53

7/1

Her best effort by far came on a soft terrain in April. Had some stiff tasks at the weights thereafter but third in a seller last time wearing cheekpieces. Down another 3lb with a jockey booking that catches the eye.

Form: 930063

Diamond Express⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Jane Elliott⁽³⁾| T: Katy Price| OR: 52

20/1

13-race maiden debuts for new yard and tackles a new trip. Best effort came here on soft ground so some grounds for optimism if she stays.

Form: 729055

(13)

Zaria^p¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: Nicola Currie⁽³⁾| T: R J Price| OR: 46| CD

12/1

Has won here three times (twice over C&D) and best effort this term came here in June. Has disappointed twice since but no surprise if she bounced back here off a more attractive mark and on ideal ground.

Form: 468277

(15)

Street Art^b,t⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: M Dwyer| T: Mrs Tracey Barfoot-Saunt| OR: 46

40/1

Scored at Yarmouth in 2017 but has finished last on all three starts this year. Drops in trip for this but impossible to fancy.

Form: 600-096

(10)

Goldfox Girl⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S De Sousa| T: M Appleby| OR: 52

8/1

By a sire who was unplaced on his only start. Has looked modest in her four runs so far and the handicapper has taken a cautious view of those efforts.

Form: 64-00

(1)

Feel The Vibes³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Finley Marsh⁽⁵⁾| T: M Blanshard| OR: 45

16/1

16-race maiden was last of 13 on his most recent start and that makes him unappealing, especially as he underperformed on last encounter with a soft surface.

Form: 566470

(8)

One Liner^p,t²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Rossa Ryan⁽³⁾| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 45

20/1

Yet to make the frame in 16 starts and another new headgear combination is tried. Good young rider on board and that the only positive.

Form: 000-607

(2)

Sea Tea Dea^t1⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Aled Beech⁽⁷⁾| T: Katy Price| OR: 45

20/1

Won a 7f Lingfield handicap last year, but has struggled to show anything in recent months. Sold for £1,500 last month and made an inauspicious debut for this trainer who now fits a tongue-tie.

Form: 940497

(5)

Mirror Magic³¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: N Mackay| T: G Deacon| OR: 50

25/1

Nathaniel filly who fetched 10,000gns as a yearling and is from a family which contains winners from 6f to 1m. Showed little in three maidens last term and now makes handicap debut on a modest mark against exposed sorts.

Form: 686-

Bond Angel⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Gabriele Malune⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 46

3/1

Produced a career best on handicap debut here last week following a 14-month break. Bred to handle a soft surface and well-drawn.

Form: 658-3

Smart Mover⁴⁴

Forecasts

Bond Angel (3/1), Jazzy Girl (4/1), Jenoow (7/1), Shoyd (8/1), Goldfox Girl (8/1), Royal Melody (10/1), Tifl (12/1), Zaria (12/1), Smart Mover (12/1), Barista (16/1), Feel The Vibes (16/1), Sea Tea Dea (20/1), One Liner (20/1), Diamond Express (20/1), Mirror Magic (25/1), Paco Filly (33/1), Street Art (40/1)

Most of these are fully exposed and the likes of Zaria and Smart Mover are proven on this undulating track on a soft surface. Ground conditions are a worry for Tifl and Shoyd, whilst Mirror Magic is a nicely bred filly who could step up on handicap debut in this grade. BOND ANGEL returned from a long break to shape well here last week and as a daughter of Monsieur Bond she will be even better suited to the easier underfoot conditions. Jeenow has dropped to an attractive mark and has each-way claims given her best effort this year came on similar ground.
