Piazon^h,v¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: P Hanagan| T: Julia Brooke| OR: 59| D

16/1

Wins his share of races, but three efforts for current stable have not suggested he is about to strike again any time soon. Positive jockey booking and handicap mark is on the slide.

Form: 772060

Pearl Noir^b²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Theodore Ladd⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 58| CD

6/1

Running in his 100th race when scoring over C&D earlier this month. Made all that day and 5lb rise is not sure to stop him if he gets away quickly again.

Form: 374921

Shesthedream¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Cam Hardie| T: L Williamson| OR: 58

50/1

First run for this stable and returning from a break when last of 13 over 7f at Newcastle. Drops markedly in distance and is probably best watched.

Form: 0-64580

Silver Starlight^t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 57| D

14/1

Without a win this season and now finds herself 23lb lower than when starting her campaign at Ripon in April. Dangerously treated if staging a revival, but that has to be taken on trust.

Form: 543508

Carlovian^v⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Jason Hart| T: M Walford| OR: 55| C| D

4/1

In good heart recently, wining at Wolverhampton before finishing third off this 3lb higher mark at Kempton. Likely to be in the shake-up once again.

Form: 953313

I'll Be Good³⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: A Berry| OR: 54| CD

20/1

Out of sorts this season and handicap mark has dropped accordingly. Stable having a lean time and he is ruled out until showing more.

Form: 060888

Rockley Point^b¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: K Scott| OR: 53

3/1

Hamilton winner last month and two subsequent efforts, latterly on the AW, have been decent. Return to turf a plus and he is one to consider.

Form: 224127

Campion^p¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Connor Murtagh⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 49| D

16/1

Without a win since joining this stable from Richard Hannon's yard. Plunging down the handicap, but needs to show more.

Form: 340078

(10)

Bonanza Bowls^b³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: G Lee| T: B Smart| OR: 48

14/1

Still looking for his first win after 11 starts. Last two runs in blinkers have been solid, however, and he is not one to write off with the headgear on again and down another 1lb.

Form: 473053

Culloden^v³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: K Stott| T: S A Harris| OR: 48| D

20/1

Losing sequence continues to grow and recent displays have not offered too much encouragement. Others make much greater appeal.

Form: 607606

Ideal Spirit^h1³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: S H James| T: K Tutty| OR: 46

16/1

Without a win and placed only once in 11 starts. Not disgraced on the AW at Newcastle last time, though, and is young enough to improve. Hood fitted for the first time.

Form: 447665

(6)

Carlton Thomas^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Nathan Evans| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 45

11/1

By far his best effort when dropped in trip and finishing fourth of eight in first-time cheekpieces at Musselburgh recently. That was his first venture into handicap company and he is one to be interested in off 5lb lower with the headgear retained.

Form: 00804

Lady Joanna Vassa^p,h³²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: S A Gray| T: R C Guest| OR: 45| DWS

25/1

Series of ordinary efforts this year and has dropped to a career-low mark. First run since wind surgery and it needs to have had a significant effect.

Forecasts

Rockley Point (3/1), Carlovian (4/1), Pearl Noir (6/1), Carlton Thomas (11/1), Silver Starlight (14/1), Bonanza Bowls (14/1), Oriental Splendour (14/1), Campion (16/1), Piazon (16/1), Ideal Spirit (16/1), I'll Be Good (20/1), Culloden (20/1), Lady Joanna Vassa (25/1), Your Just Desserts (25/1), Shesthedream (50/1)

Recent C&D winner Pearl Noir may take some catching if breaking quickly again, but he is vulnerable off his higher mark and a chance is taken with CARLTON THOMAS, who showed much more last time when dropped to this distance and is 5lb lower. Carlovian is in good heart and likely to be involved, while others with prospects include Bonanza Bowls, Rockley Point, Silver Starlight and top-weight Plazon.
