Redarna¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Oakley Brown⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 61

3/1

Won on second start this year over 7f at Ayr. Couldn't back that up over this trip in a better grade at Carlisle next time but should appreciate this return to class 6 company. Nagging doubt about this trip being ideal.

Form: 333-915

Rosemay¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Andrew Breslin| T: R M Smith| OR: 59

12/1

Now a maiden after 20 starts and hasn't shown anything in recent efforts to suggest a win is around the corner. Only having second start for this yard but others preferred.

Form: 5-65920

Crazy Tornado^h¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Gavin Ashton⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 56| C| D

4/1

Won here over slightly shorter two starts back but struggled to back that up at Carlisle next time. Only 3lb higher than for that win though and back down in grade here so has a fair shout of going well again.

Form: 788616

Indigo Princess¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Keelan Baker⁽⁶⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 55| D

7/1

Can be a bit free at times so this sort of trip should help in that regard. Ran better at Chelmsford (1m, AW) last time and is starting to look attractively handicapped. Could go well.

Clary¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Russell⁽³⁾| T: A C Whillans| OR: 52| D

11/1

Ran pretty well over C&D on debut for this yard two starts back. Again not beaten all that far at Ayr last time and should be cherry ripe now. Well handicapped on old form and she has pretty clear claims of going well.

Form: 3464/66

Colour Contrast^v¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Oliver Stammers| T: I Jardine| OR: 49

5/1

Can't always be relied upon to put his best foot forward. Last three runs have been a little disappointing and others are preferred until showing a bit more.

Stardrifter⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Miss Leanne Ferguson⁽⁶⁾| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 48| D

18/1

Won at Ayr over 7f off a 3lb lower mark three starts back. Subsequent efforts show his inconsistent side and likely to find a few too good here.

Form: 894179

(7)

Allux Boy^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Faye McManoman⁽³⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 46

4/1

Hasn't been firing on all cylinders of late but remains on a handy mark and a bounce back to form wouldn't be a big surprise. Versatile regarding tactics and sound place claims at least.

Forecasts

Redarna (3/1), Crazy Tornado (4/1), Allux Boy (4/1), Colour Contrast (5/1), Phebes Dream (11/2), Lotara (6/1), Indigo Princess (7/1), Natajack (8/1), Clary (11/1), Rosemay (12/1), Stardrifter (18/1), My Cherokee (20/1)

Redarna is respected having run in a better race than this last time and could bounce back. LOTARA has been running consistently well of late and represents last years winning stable. Any money for Phebes Dream could well be significant and should be noted.
