Lorton⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Danny Redmond⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 87

5/1

One of a few in this field making AW debut. Produced another solid effort when runner-up for the second time in a row at Carlisle (6f; heavy) just eight days ago. Thereabouts once again off top-weight.

Form: 211-822

Impulsion²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 86

4/1

Didn't run in accordance with market expectations when making seasonal reappearance at Salisbury (7f; good to firm). Not entirely disgraced in a Listed contest at York (1m; good to firm) last time. This is more realistic but has something to prove.

Form: 6454-77

Neon Sea¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 85| D

8/11

Off the mark at the third attempt in emphatic style over this trip at Goodwood (7f; good to firm). Makes handicap debut off a fair mark and is open to plenty of improvement in this sphere.

Form: 2-51

(6)

With Caution¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: P J McDonald| T: J Tate| OR: 83

6/1

Made a respectable enough turf debut when third behind the progressive Look Out Louis at Haydock (6f; good to firm). Competes off the same mark now. Should cope with the step up in trip and likely to enjoy the return to the AW. Player.

Form: 1123

Porcelain Girl⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Sara Del Fabbro⁽⁷⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 79

33/1

Makes AW debut. Below par on final run of 2018 and first run of 2019, of which both of those runs came over 7f. Was never involved on seasonal return at Salisbury (7f; good to firm) and hard to have much faith when in current form.

Forecasts

Neon Sea (8/11), Impulsion (4/1), Lorton (5/1), With Caution (6/1), Be Like Me (6/1), Porcelain Girl (33/1)

With a solid record on the AW to her name, Be Like Me is a reliable sort who should progress further now up in trip after going down narrowly at Chester last time. Lorton is a tough and consistent sort who has finished second the last twice. She makes her AW debut and should post another good run, but is likely to find one too good yet again in the shape of NEON SEA. The selection got off the mark in ready fashion a couple of weeks ago and starts out in handicaps off a fair mark. She could be open to any amount of improvement in this sphere.
