11/2

Looked unlucky when third at Wolverhampton, and made amends with a much-improved performance to win on handicap debut at Newcastle (5f) last time. Huge chance if as effective on turf.

33/1

Runner-up twice last year when also tried in Listed company. Better than bare result when mid-field on return at Pontefract (favourite), and given a chance by the handicapper. Does need to prove her progress hasn't stalled, though.

Form: 72523-7

Abate¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: A Mullen| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 75

9/2

No show on debut for Roger Charlton last year, but much improved in two starts for his new yard, and again made the running when 3¾L second of 10 to Victory Day in a 6f maiden at Ripon last time. Can do better again now handicapping.

Form: 0-42

15/2

Dual 5f novice winner as a 2-y-o, but yet to score in five handicap starts. Excuses when well held in a stronger race at York last time, and should be competitive having been dropped 3lb for that.

Form: 14-6438

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 73| BF| D

13/2

Thriving this spring, winning 5f handicaps at Newcastle and Nottingham in April, and progressed again when runner-up at Windsor last time. Sure to give another solid account.

Form: 4-29112

Kyllachy Warrior²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D Tudhope| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 73

7/2

Much improved on return from a break earlier this month when close second of 12 from an outside draw at Beverley, and deserves extra credit in the circumstances. Should remain competitive despite a 4lb rise.

Form: 94-252

Autumn Flight³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 72| D

12/1

Won a soft-ground novice over 5f at Hamilton last year, but looks a little high in the weights on balance, and only 4½L sixth of 9 to Mark's Choice in handicap at Ripon on his return.

Form: 2138-6

Northern Society¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Shane Gray| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 68| D

9/1

Placed four times in nurseries, and deservedly got her head in front in a 5f handicap at Musselburgh on her reappearance. Met trouble in running there, and may well be a bit better than the bare form, so respected.

Form: 47362-1

28/1

Won at Thirsk last summer, but has not been getting home in handicaps this year, finishing last at Beverley behind Friendly Advice last time. Tongue tie tried now, but best left alone.

Form: 002-950

Montalvan²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Paula Muir⁽⁵⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 58

Fairly treated on pick of his form for Willie McCreery in Ireland, but well beaten for new yard this year, including behind several of these at Beverley last time.

Well drawn when third to Ariska at Nottingham last month, but readily held in a couple of subsequent starts, and marginally out of the weights here.

There's no reason why she won't prove as effective on turf as Tapeta, so it's hard to get away from impressive Newcastle winner WISE WORDS, who is preferred to the thriving Arishka and Beverley runner-up Kyllachy Warrior. The first-named pair are drawn high, which can be an issue here, and if there is a bias against those racing stands side, then Musselburgh winner Northern Society, drawn lowest of all, looks berthed to take advantage.
