Geneva Trumpet⁵⁸⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Faye McManoman⁽⁷⁾| T: S Spencer

100/1

Well beaten in three bumpers for Neville Bycroft in late 2016/early 2017. Hard to fancy on his Flat debut at his age returning from a significant absence.

(9)

Rock N'stones¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Oliver Stammers⁽⁷⁾| T: G Boanas

125/1

Moderate performer in the National Hunt sphere and shown nothing in two starts on the Flat. More needed.

Form: 47

(2)

Perfect Myth¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: G Lee| T: H Whittington

33/1

Looked like a nice prospect in a couple of bumpers on her first two career starts but has gone backwards and shown very little in two runs on the Flat.

Form: 86

(10)

Baileys Artist¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston

20/1

Zoffany gelding, cost 40,000 gns as a foal. Half-brother to four winners including a Listed winner. Dam a winner over 1m. Shown very little and has looked in need on the evidence of his first couple of runs, others preferred.

Form: 47

(3)

Beer With The Boys¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: M R Channon| OR: 68

7/4

Nathaniel colt, cost 120,000 gns as a yearling. Half-brother to a middle distance Group 1 winner and three more pattern level performers. Signs he was starting to get the hang of things over C&D last time and place claims if he improves on that.

Form: 343573

Galitello¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: C & M Johnston

7/2

Showed some ability on debut but looked in need of a step up in trip at Newcastle last time and others have shown more.

Form: 35

(7)

Muthanaa³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: T Hamilton| T: R Fell & S Murray

7/1

Poet's Voice gelding. Dam related to a Group 1 winner. Good second on debut here earlier in the month when 33/1 but couldn't back that up in a heavy ground contest at Haydock next time. May be worth giving another chance to.

Form: 24

(5)

Pivello⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D C Costello| T: Tom Clover

33/1

Intello gelding, half-brother to two winners, one a 7f Group 2 winner. Dam a half-sister to a Group 1 winner over 7f. Well beaten on debut at Chelmsford but may improve for that. Steps up in trip.

Form: 0

(6)

Lady Annalee³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: C Lee⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 68

10/3

High Chaparral filly, has run with promise on each of her three starts, though no match for a smart sort here last time. Not without a chance in this moderate affair.

Form: 342

(4)

Via Delle Volte⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: K Stott| T: J Tuite

9/1

Chased home an impressive winner at Chelmsford on debut but didn't build on that at Kempton in August. Returns from a short absence here and remains with potential.

Form: 24

Forecasts

Beer With The Boys (7/4), Lady Annalee (10/3), Galitello (7/2), Muthanaa (7/1), Via Delle Volte (9/1), Baileys Artist (20/1), Perfect Myth (33/1), Pivello (33/1), Geneva Trumpet (100/1), Rock N'stones (125/1)

BEER WITH THE BOYS is a well bred sort and the booking of Andrea Atzeni catches the eye after his respectable course and distance effort last time. Muthanaa disappointed last time after a promising debut but remains capable of better while Lady Annalee has shown some ability in each of her three career starts.
