3/1

C&D winner arrives here in good form having won four of her last five starts. Successful by ½L over this trip at Kempton last time out and likely to prove hard to beat despite a 3lb rise in the weights.

9/1

Winner of her first two starts at two but patchy form since and held in a sales race over an extended 6f at Doncaster (good) last September. Interesting to see how she fares on seasonal and AW debut.

Be Like Me¹¹

8/1

Victorious off a 7lb lower mark over this trip at Wolverhampton last September. Beaten 3L at Kempton (6f) earlier this month on only handicap start subsequently and worth a check in the market in this contest.

Broke his maiden when winning by a head over 5f at Wolverhampton last September. Struggled in a Listed event at York (6f, soft) the following month and is making his seasonal and handicap debut.

10/1

Promising 2½L sixth in a 12 runner 6f handicap at Kempton on seasonal debut just over three weeks ago. First start since being gelded on that occasion and was a winner over 5f on debut here last April.

15/8

Good effort in finishing 3L third to a subsequent Group 1 winner over 6f at Newmarket last June. Hails from a top yard and is one to note on handicap debut despite a slightly disappointing effort at Newcastle (7f) recently.

Form: 33-4

Aegean Mist¹³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: J J Bridger| OR: 72| D

66/1

Dual winner on turf last season but disappointed at Kempton (6f) in December on her most recent appearance and races off a mark 11lb higher than for her sole handicap victory.

Forecasts

Alnasherat (15/8), Probability (3/1), Motagally (7/2), Be Like Me (8/1), Prairie Spy (9/1), Jungle Inthebungle (10/1), Lovin (14/1), Aegean Mist (66/1)

ALNASHERAT should appreciate this drop in trip on handicap debut and representing a top yard he can make a winning handicap debut in this competitive looking event. The progressive top weight Probability can finish runner-up having won at Kempton on her most recent appearance while third place can go to Motagally who is open to improvement on handicap debut.
