Toro Dorado^b¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 61

16/1

Still looking for a first win after 10 starts, despite some promising efforts. This month's Newmarket run over 7f wasn't amongst them, with visor now discarded in favour of blinkers once again.

Form: 725-440

(3)

Temujin³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Winston| T: C Hills| OR: 59| BF

10/1

Didn't run badly on the AW course over a mile on seasonal return last month, though still must step up considerably if hoping to break duck back on turf.

Form: 00403-5

(2)

Cromwell¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Theodore Ladd⁽⁵⁾| T: L A Dace| OR: 59

8/1

Nine-race maiden, longer trip failing to bring about change in fortunes at Windsor recently. Has more to find than a few of these rivals.

Form: 35-3657

(13)

Swiss Peak²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: M L W Bell| OR: 59

7/1

Drop in distance and a dawdling pace didn't help case at Wolverhampton recently, yet to make the frame in eight races but did shape with some purpose at Yarmouth last month over 1m2f, his sole attempt over this sort of trip on turf.

Form: 5950-45

(11)

Mukha Magic^b¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 58

20/1

Three-figure prices in all three starts last year, shaped with promise on return at Wolverhampton (1m1½f, AW; 5-1) in April, though unable to build on that Beverley since on turf (1m4f, good to soft; 11-1) in this grade.

Form: 890-57

(6)

Elsie Violet¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Darragh Keenan⁽⁵⁾| T: R Eddery| OR: 57

33/1

Filly has so far shown her best form on the AW, and has plenty to find on form. Tackles a trip beyond a mile for the first time now.

Form: 3064-08

(10)

Bader⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 57

16/1

Modest in two starts last year and gelded over the winter, beaten some 27L in Windsor maiden won by leading Derby hope Telecaster in April over 1m2f. Goes handicapping and could have improvement to come. Watch betting.

Form: 09-0

(7)

Jazzy Card³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: George Downing| T: Mrs L C Jewell| OR: 55

66/1

Red Jazz filly makes handicap debut here and has plenty to find on form after three unimpressive outings so far.

Form: 460

(14)

Lippy Lady^h¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Oisin Murphy| T: Paul George| OR: 55

3/1

Maiden but threatening since joining this trainer, latest when going down a head behind Poetic Motion at Bath (1m, firm; 9-2jf) after blowing the start. Has to be on the shortlist again.

Form: 45-5432

(8)

Act Of Magic¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: M Moubarak| OR: 54| BF

7/2

Career-best when landing 1m Yarmouth contest last month and since run with credit behind re-opposing Poetic Motion at Bath. In the mix again here.

Form: 0-58214

(12)

Florence Rose⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 53

50/1

Doesn't have a lot of miles on the clock but must improve on what she has shown so far; latest on the AW Wolverhampton over similar trip last month.

Form: 876-9

(9)

Poetic Motion¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 51

9/2

Clearly the best of her efforts to date when scoring on handicap debut at Bath (1m, firm) 15 days ago, with Lippy Lady just held in second. Entitled to have more to say and holds Act Of Magic on that form.

Form: 009-41

(1)

Margaret J^p²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Nicola Currie| T: P S McEntee| OR: 46

20/1

This month's Wolverhampton outing (third) over similar trip was a step in the right direction and interesting to see if it can be built on now switched to turf.

Form: 464043

(4)

Queen Of Bradgate²³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Gabriele Malune⁽³⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 45

40/1

Compton Place filly has been sprinting in her three qualifying runs and will need to improve for this step up in distance handicapping for the first time.

Form: 699-

Forecasts

Lippy Lady (3/1), Act Of Magic (7/2), Poetic Motion (9/2), Swiss Peak (7/1), Cromwell (8/1), Temujin (10/1), Toro Dorado (16/1), Bader (16/1), Mukha Magic (20/1), Margaret J (20/1), Elsie Violet (33/1), Queen Of Bradgate (40/1), Florence Rose (50/1), Jazzy Card (66/1)

She'll have to get out of the gate sharper, but there seems to be talent in LIPPY LADY and she might have well got the verdict last time at Bath was it not for a tardy beginning. If Oisin Murphy can get her out alert, this can be her moment. Poetic Motion was a winning handicap debutante last time and is respected, while she brings Act Of Magic into the picture too. Bader is a possible improver worth noting on handicap debut for the Richard Hannon yard.
