Pinnata^t¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 76| CD

4/1

Won this race last year off just 3lb lower but has disappointed the last twice after a good reappearance. Could easily bounce back returning to the AW.

Form: 212-340

(3)

London¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Nicola Currie⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 75| C| D

5/1

Just four career wins but has dropped to a really low mark and has gone close the last twice. Suited by this extra furlong and should be involved again.

Form: 050022

Dolcissimo^b⁷⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 77| BF

4/1

Has now finished runner-up in five of seven starts including in all four on the AW. Only just caught and did little wrong over this C&D last time and should go close again.

Form: 276222

Craving²³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: S Crisford| OR: 77| D

9/2

Has proven incredibly consistent since his debut and not disgraced under a change of tactics here on handicap debut. If switching back to front-running then he should be competitive on this drop in class.

Form: 23-3215

Blaze Of Hearts^v¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: M Dwyer| T: D K Ivory| OR: 73| D

16/1

Proving very inconsistent and failed to back up Brighton win in a better race at Nottingham. Hard to predict and others more reliable.

Form: 738717

It's Not Unusual^b,t⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D Tudhope| T: A Watson| OR: 75| BF| CD

3/1

Has improved out of sight with the fitting of blinkers and was very unlucky not to complete a hat-trick when carried wide over this C&D latest. Looks sure to go close again.

Fleeting Freedom^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: A Bailey| OR: 75

14/1

16-race maiden but has gone close on a few occasions. Struggled when upped in grade once again but likely better suited by a return to this class. Place possibilities.

Form: 373720

(8)

Lagenda²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Faye McManoman⁽⁷⁾| T: A Crook| OR: 72| D

50/1

Just two wins from 34 starts and yet to score in nine on the AW. Back to last winning mark on stable debut after a return to form at Newcastle. Rates a contender.

Form: 198084

Club Tropicana^t²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Liam Keniry| T: R Spencer| OR: 74

33/1

Eight-race maiden who has been well tried and gets a drop in class. Falling down the weights but this is competitive again.

Form: 90-3466

(6)

Fair Power¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Tim Clark⁽³⁾| T: J Butler| OR: 71

50/1

Seems to have lost his way and was very well beaten on recent stable debut. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 9-09570

Echo Brava¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Ryan Tate| T: J & S Best| OR: 65| D

100/1

Has really struggled in six well beaten starts since returning from an absence and remains best watched until signs of encouragement.

Forecasts

It's Not Unusual (3/1), Dolcissimo (4/1), Pinnata (4/1), Craving (9/2), London (5/1), Al Reeh (8/1), Fleeting Freedom (14/1), Blaze Of Hearts (16/1), Club Tropicana (33/1), Lagenda (50/1), Fair Power (50/1), Echo Brava (100/1)

A very competitive contest with a number of hopes and a likely strong pace that should suit the improving IT'S NOT UNUSUAL who, with better fortune, would be bidding for a four-timer. Dolcissimo keeps on finding one too good but surely her time will come soon while Craving should be thereabouts again for an in-form yard.
