Lacan²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: A Kirby| T: B R Johnson| OR: 80| CD

9/1

Did best of those held up at Chelmsford last time and has course form but others make more appeal here.

Form: 430055

Oud Metha Bridge²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Shelley Birkett⁽³⁾| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 79| CD

11/1

Last victory was when beating Lacan over C&D in February and although several placed efforts since still runs from above that mark.

Form: 330023

Family Fortunes¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Scott McCullagh⁽⁷⁾| T: M Madgwick| OR: 78| CD

15/2

Took advantage of a slipping mark when gamely scoring over C&D recently under this apprentice and 3lb rise is fair. Well drawn again and no reason why he shouldn't play a part in the finish.

Pearl Spectre^v²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Shepherd| T: P S McEntee| OR: 78| C| D

33/1

Won at Southwell in April the last time he ran off this mark and gives impression he now looks worth a return to this trip.

Blazed^t⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: S Donohoe| T: E F Vaughan| OR: 77

20/1

Stepping up in trip again and has stamina to prove as well as the fact his sole win was gained fully a year back at the minimum trip.

Form: 824633

Juanito Chico^t²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 77

14/1

Proving a bit frustrating these days and although the handicapper giving him a chance, his losing run is building up.

Form: 800559

Ring Dancer^t³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J Mitchell| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 78| D

3/1

Progressed with each start and got off the mark when making all in a weak maiden at Newcastle. Open to improvement on handicap debut for a stable in good nick.

Form: 321

Kingston Kurrajong¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Jason Watson| T: W J Knight| OR: 76| CD

5/1

Hold-up performer who just failed to peg back Family Fortunes here recently and there should be little between them again now. The stronger the pace the better for him.

Form: 390572

Rampant Lion^p1⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: W Jarvis| OR: 78| D

13/2

Just beaten at Lingfield a week ago on first run for current trainer by one who was completing a hat-trick. Due to go up 2lb from tomorrow so has solid claims.

Form: 519202

Bombastic²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: E De Giles| OR: 77| D

25/1

Front-runner who can sometimes do too much up front and rare AW run here. Others make more appeal.

Form: 888380

Central City⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jim Crowley| T: Ian Williams| OR: 76| BF| D

8/1

Set a difficult task when third at Epsom last time but probably remains in good form and his earlier Doncaster win was in good style. Has run well here before and should play a part.

Form: 056113

(6)

Choral Music²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: J E Long| OR: 75| CD

16/1

Sprang a 50/1 shock on first run for new trainer and that brings her AW tally to two wins from three runs. Slightly better race but only up 2lb.

Form: 115241

(7)

Thechildren'strust³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: G & J Moore| OR: 75

25/1

Has finished tamely on both previous attempts at this trip and although the blinkers tried last time are now left off, has something to prove at present.

Form: 13-3376

Forecasts

Ring Dancer (3/1), Kingston Kurrajong (5/1), Rampant Lion (13/2), Family Fortunes (15/2), Central City (8/1), Lacan (9/1), Oud Metha Bridge (11/1), Happy Escape (12/1), Juanito Chico (14/1), Choral Music (16/1), Blazed (20/1), Thechildren'strust (25/1), Bombastic (25/1), Pearl Spectre (33/1)

Plenty in with chances and narrow preference goes to RAMPANT LION with first time cheek pieces fitted. Central City can get back on track at this more conventional course and along with Family Fortunes are among the the many dangers.
