Antico Lady¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Ben Robinson⁽³⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 56

15/8

Improved effort upped to 7f on handicap debut latest when third at Wolverhampton. By Dandy Man but dam sire Dynaformer a major stamina influence so should be better still now up to 1m. Leading claims.

Form: 78-53

Preservation³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 52

12/1

Well beaten in two races at Redcar last August and similar tale on recent return at Doncaster when last of 10. Hard to think opening handicap mark is generous.

Form: 00-0

Mi Laddo^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Nolan| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 51

6/1

Best of four juvenile runs came on final start at Newcastle (7f) and not disgraced there on seasonal reappearance but failed to really build on that latest at Wolverhampton. Not seen enough to recommend.

Form: 9535-88

Milistorm²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: M Blanshard| OR: 51

50/1

Only modest form shown in three qualifying runs and beaten 21L in handicap bow at Kempton over this trip latest; easy to oppose.

Form: 006-0

Jagerbond^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Crook| OR: 50

14/1

Unplaced in nine career races and for all he was midfield latest over C&D latest he was beaten 18½L. Hard to find positives.

Form: 756-086

Leebellnsummerbee²⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Ella McCain⁽⁷⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 49

33/1

Handicap debutant gone up by 1f in each race and continues the trend here. Latest seventh of nine beaten 7L was her best run to date but will need to progress further to make the frame.

Form: 507-

Piccolita⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Charlie Bennett| T: H Morrison| OR: 48

9/1

Second first time out although beaten 13L there. Well held on handicap bow latest but that going right up in trip to 1m2f. This trip between what she's run over so far could suit better. Not ruled out.

Form: 0-280

(4)

Crazy Spin^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Hart| T: I Furtado| OR: 46

4/1

Well held here latest but earlier third over C&D makes appealing reading in this company especially given she's 1lb lower now. Certainly has amongst the strongest claims and course experience an obvious positive.

Form: 0-03374

Lethal Laura⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Darragh Keenan⁽⁵⁾| T: J G Given| OR: 46

25/1

Six-race maiden has made little impression in three handicap over 6f. Longer trip today but not looked likely to improve a great deal for it.

Form: 5085-00

(2)

Treasured Company^e/s⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Nathan Evans| T: R C Guest| OR: 46

7/1

Registered a career best latest when third of 12 over 7f here. Bred to stay further and may now do having settled better last time out. Each-way appeal here.

Form: 9748-73

Forecasts

Antico Lady (15/8), Crazy Spin (4/1), Mi Laddo (6/1), Treasured Company (7/1), Piccolita (9/1), Preservation (12/1), Jagerbond (14/1), Lethal Laura (25/1), Leebellnsummerbee (33/1), Milistorm (50/1)

ANTICO LADY ran well on handicap bow and looked sure to benefit for an extra 1f which she gets here in the process so she looks worth siding with in this moderate contest. Crazy Spin and Treasured Company both have recent course thirds to their name and they are on that basis the most likely of the others.
