Kodicat^p¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: K Shoemark| T: K A Ryan| OR: 65| BF

5/2

Front-runner who bounced back from a disappointing run at Thirsk with another solid second over this C&D. Just the sole win from 20 starts is frustrating but worth another chance on this drop in class.

Form: 562202

(7)

Dollar Value^p²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: E J Walsh⁽³⁾| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 65

10/1

Seven-race maiden whose best run so far has come at Wolverhampton. Improvement required on latest C&D run and hung when coming under pressure.

Form: 4-66205

(3)

Lethal Angel²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Oisin Murphy| T: S C Williams| OR: 62

11/8

Maiden after 12 starts but she has suggested of late that the drop back to this trip may suit and acts on this surface. Holds each-way claims if bouncing back from latest below-par effort.

Form: 422528

(5)

Jack Nevison^v²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby| OR: 59| C

4/1

Sole win from 21 starts came over a furlong further here and now 1lb below that mark. Claims if at his best but remains inconsistent and others look more solid propositions.

Form: 5-36327

(4)

Gulland Rock^v¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Shepherd| T: A Carson| OR: 57| D

10/1

Has looked better suited by Wolverhampton and Kempton on the AW and recent form needs significantly improving on. Others preferred on this drop back in trip.

Form: 504489

(9)

Alkashaaf^e/c1,t¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Edward Greatrex| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 55| CD

25/1

Last win came in early 2017 and on a long losing run now. Much more needed on current form in both sellers and handicaps.

Form: 964247

(2)

Divine Call^t²¹

Age: 11| Weight: 8-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: C Wallis| OR: 45| D

25/1

Veteran who has been struggling of late and held again over this C&D after a break. Probably best watched racing from out of the handicap once again.

Form: 4-36878

(6)

Avenging Red^b¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: N Mackay| T: A West| OR: 45

33/1

Has really struggled in five starts this year when being well beaten on each occasion. Is on a fair mark now but is proving regressive.

Form: 0-65680

Forecasts

Lethal Angel (11/8), Kodicat (5/2), Jack Nevison (4/1), Dreamboat Annie (4/1), Dollar Value (10/1), Gulland Rock (10/1), Alkashaaf (25/1), Divine Call (25/1), Avenging Red (33/1)

Dreamboat Annie is respected once again and her C&D third two starts back looks the key piece of form. However KODICAT finished one place ahead of her and off better terms looks likely to make a bold bid from the front from this draw. Lethal Angel can chase them home with the return to this trip a bonus.
