Squire^p,t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Paddy Bradley⁽⁵⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 57| CD

9/2

Long, losing sequence continues to grow, but recent AW efforts have been fair. Handicap rating gives him a decent chance, but he needs to find a little more.

Form: 853264

Zahirah¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Liam Keniry| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 56

12/1

Second handicap outing when beaten only a nose over 7f at Wolverhampton. Goes up in trip off 4lb higher, but is lightly raced and open to improvement.

Form: 55562

Candesta^t²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Shelley Birkett⁽³⁾| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 55| CD

50/1

Beaten out of sight when last of 11 over 1m2f at this venue following a break. Has winning form on the AW, however, and races off 5lb lower.

Form: 927600

Coachella^b⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Shepherd| T: E De Giles| OR: 52| D

7/2

Decent efforts to be runner-up on last two outings at Kempton. Up 1lb, but is in good heart and is one of the more convincing contenders.

Form: 564022

Molten Lava^p⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: R Havlin| T: S Gollings| OR: 51| CD

7/2

Off the mark at the 21st attempt on the AW when scoring over C&D earlier this month. Well held over 2f further off 6lb higher last time, however, and has a bit to prove despite dropping back in trip.

Rivers Of Asia³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Danny Brock| T: Martin Smith| OR: 49| D

5/1

Scored at Guernsey in May, but that remains his only career success. Recent efforts give him plenty to find.

Malaysian Boleh^b,e/s¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Rossa Ryan| T: P S McEntee| OR: 49| BF| C

8/1

Plenty of AW form and was second of 12 over this C&D off 2lb higher last month. May have found 7f too sharp when favourite at Wolverhampton last time.

Form: 992455

Ainne^t¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Watson| T: S Kirk| OR: 51

10/1

Maiden after eight starts, but latest effort off this rating at Wolverhampton was respectable. Needs to find extra if she is to get off the mark.

Form: 4-63054

(6)

Kodiac Pearl⁵⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: E J Walsh⁽³⁾| T: A G Newcombe| OR: 47

12/1

No wins in 11 starts, but has been running well and deserves to shed her maiden tag. Down 1lb since last time, but steps up 2f in distance and has to prove her stamina.

Form: 6-22324

Forecasts

Coachella (7/2), Molten Lava (7/2), Squire (9/2), Rivers Of Asia (5/1), Malaysian Boleh (8/1), Ainne (10/1), Zahirah (12/1), Kodiac Pearl (12/1), Touch The Clouds (12/1), Bond Angel (16/1), Candesta (50/1)

Kodiac Pearl has prospects if staying this longer trip and Zahirah looks capable of improvement, but this may be best left to COACHELLA, who has finished second on his last two runs and deserves to go one better. Malaysian Boleh is capable of getting involved, along with top-weight Squire and Touch The Clouds.
