Ubla¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Faye McManoman⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 64| CD

12/1

C&D winner off 1lb higher and remains on a competitive mark. Appreciated return to the AW when not getting a clear run over 7f here latest and should go close up a furlong.

Form: 500105

(10)

Wilson^p²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Shelley Birkett| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 66

8/1

One win for Luca Cumani and ran by far his best race for current stable on latest AW debut. More required again.

Form: 555504

(4)

Cuttin' Edge¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: George Wood| T: W R Muir| OR: 62

4/1

Disappointed when gambled on at Leicester but better over 7f here (Ubla one place behind) last start and worth another try at this trip. Can be competitive.

Form: 31/0704

(12)

Para Mio^t1³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Adam J McNamara| T: S Durack| OR: 64| BF

5/1

Yet to build on debut at Ascot last year but ran respectably on return from an absence and wind surgery. Could come on for the run but progress needed.

Form: 49-86

(1)

Fair Selene¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Ellie Mackenzie⁽⁷⁾| T: H Main| OR: 61| D

16/1

Eased back to same mark as when making winning handicap debut but well below that in three runs since and probably best watched.

Form: 761559

(11)

Big Bad Lol^p⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Finley Marsh| T: E Walker| OR: 60| BF

11/2

Has run to a consistent level in a run of four placed efforts and open to more improvement back on an AW surface. Should be thereabouts again.

Form: 683222

(5)

Turn Of Luck^t1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne| OR: 61

11/1

Green but showed some ability in first two starts here before below that at Wolverhampton. Progress needed on handicap debut and market may be the best guide.

Form: 450

(6)

N Over J^v¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽⁷⁾| T: W J Knight| OR: 61| BF

9/1

Not won since debut but has continued to race to a consistent level at around 7f without having the turn of foot to win. Step up in distance remains a query.

Form: 235236

(2)

Silverturnstogold¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Poppy Bridgwater⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 61| D

13/2

Built on promise of first two starts for this yard when readily winning at Kempton before a similar run off revised mark at the same track. Can go well but more required again.

Form: 482414

(7)

Lady Marigold³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Georgia Dobie⁽⁷⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 60

12/1

Yet to add to juvenile success but better second latest off reduced mark. May have more to offer up a furlong and should be competitive.

Form: 443552

(8)

Classified¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Scott McCullagh⁽⁵⁾| T: E De Giles| OR: 57

20/1

Has generally struggled to make an impression in six starts and doesn't seem to be moving in the right direction. Others preferred.

Form: 9/56460

(9)

Zouch²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Aaron Mackay⁽⁷⁾| T: J S Moore| OR: 51

25/1

Lost his position before some decent late progress under this jockey on first try at a mile. That was a better effort and not without hope with more improvement.

Form: 9-55604

Forecasts

Cuttin' Edge (4/1), Para Mio (5/1), Big Bad Lol (11/2), Silverturnstogold (13/2), Wilson (8/1), N Over J (9/1), Turn Of Luck (11/1), Lady Marigold (12/1), Ubla (12/1), Fair Selene (16/1), Classified (20/1), Zouch (25/1)

Ubla was short of room over a furlong shorter here last time and will be better at this trip and is taken to reverse form with Cuttin' Edge. Big Bad Lol keeps finding one too good but is taken to be involved once more while Lady Marigold is another who should be suited by this extra trip and is on a good mark. With his inexperienced jockey hopefully learning with each experience, ZOUCH is taken to improve on a good first try at this trip and if he can hold a better position, he can outrun his likely odds.
