Perfect Symphony^p⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Joshua Bryan⁽³⁾| T: M Pattinson| OR: 61

7/2

Two wins in 29 starts but well enough handicapped on the best of his form, takes a drop in trip today and gets a pair of cheekpieces, all of which could lead to him taking a hand. Not discounted.

Form: 90-0455

Holy Tiber^b¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: P Howling| OR: 59| C| D

5/1

Runner-up on last two starts and fully effective under these conditions, tends to come from the back so will need a good pace to aim at, but a solid chance of success if he gets one.

Form: 270922

Hello Girl^p1²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: M Dwyer| T: D K Ivory| OR: 57

6/1

Not really going anywhere quickly at present and the way she faded out of it over 5f at Windsor last week hardly suggests she's crying out for this sixth furlong. Gets cheekpieces today but others preferred.

Form: 9-06685

Daring Guest^b,t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Harry Bentley| T: Tom Clover| OR: 56| D

7/2

Banging the door down at present, runner-up last three starts and only beaten ½l here last time. Not the best drawn by any means and may need a bit of luck in running, but a key player all the same.

Form: 338322

Fantasy Justifier^p⁴²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: R Harris| OR: 55| D

14/1

A rare winner these days, although did pop up at Wolverhampton last October. Not the worst effort when last seen out (at Windsor, in April) but tends to find a few to beat him. Poorly drawn too.

Form: 2-48427

Poppy May³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Barry McHugh| T: J G Given| OR: 53| CD

4/1

Has improved greatly on her last two starts, successful over C&D here in March and then ran at least as well at Wolverhampton last time. No reason not to go well from the plum draw in stall 1.

Form: 2-98512

Ar Saoirse^b¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Hobson| OR: 51

20/1

Only second run for new yard, and may well be happier on this surface than he was at Southwell last time. May get his own way up front but the oxygen tanks are likely to be out late, as he seems best over 5f.

Form: 822340

Kyllukey⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Sean Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: C Wallis| OR: 48| C| D

11/1

Seems to reserve some of his best efforts for here these days, winner here over 5f in April (in the stewards room) and almost won over 6f in April. Another that likes to come from the back late, so will need the breaks, but has chances.

Form: 461727

Elliot The Dragon⁶¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 45| D

16/1

Inconsistency is the key word with him, winner at Kempton three starts back but since then has thrown in two below=par efforts. Plenty to do here.

Form: 86-3100

(7)

Song Of Summer⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 45| D

50/1

Just the one win in 22 starts and showed little on first start for new yard at Brighton last week, so not hard to look elsewhere for the winner today.

Form: 530-678

Forecasts

Perfect Symphony (7/2), Daring Guest (7/2), Poppy May (4/1), Holy Tiber (5/1), Hello Girl (6/1), Kyllukey (11/1), Fantasy Justifier (14/1), Elliot The Dragon (16/1), Ar Saoirse (20/1), Charlie Alpha (20/1), Song Of Summer (50/1)

Ar Saoirse might get an easy lead here, with plenty of them wanting to be held up for run, but that alone might not be enough to see him home, and preference is for DARING GUEST, who deserves to win one after some good efforts lately, and this looks his chance. He can beat Holy Tiber, another that looks about ready to score, and Poppy May, who continues in good form.
