Imperial Court^h1²⁰²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: J P Spencer| T: D M Simcock| OR: 68| BF

4/1

Lightly-raced gelding. Finished runner-up on his last two starts of last season at Kempton on the AW. If fit first time he could have an excellent chance stepping up in trip though unproven on the expected going.

Form: 64422-

Fields Of Fortune²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: James Doyle| T: A King| OR: 67

9/2

Fair hurdler; lightly raced on the flat in recent years but has proven form on a soft surface and stays this trip and more. Seasonal reappearance run at Nottingham was useful form and one for the shortlist.

Form: 542/39-3

Velvet Vision²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M H Tompkins| OR: 67

17/2

Has been tried over a variety of trips since winning a 1m2f as a novice in 2018. Winless since then but has fallen to a handy mark. Disappointing on reappearance at Goodwood and untried on a soft surface.

Form: 48-3336

Nasee^p²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: S Donohoe| T: E F Vaughan| OR: 66| C

6/4

Two very good efforts on this course of late finishing runner up over 1m2f before narrowly winning over an extra furlong last month. Untried on a soft surface but clearly in much better heart since moving from Sir Michael Stoute. Respected.

Form: 0/75-21

Hatsaway²³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Charlie Bennett| T: P Phelan| OR: 66| D

13/2

Fair effort at Goodwood on his seasonal reappearance over today's trip before running below par at Brighton over 1m4f. Yet to encounter really soft ground but handles some cut. Slowly falling to a winning mark.

Form: 9340-74

Contingency Fee^p,h³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 65| BF

25/1

Completed a quick fire hat-trick (1m2f-1m4f) when winning at Wolverhampton in April. Disappointed on two subsequent starts but may have benefited from little break (38 days). No real form on a soft surface a slight worry.

Princess Harley²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: F Norton| T: M Quinn| OR: 62

12/1

Just one maiden win to her name but a hardy sort over a variety of trips and surfaces. Good effort last time out over this course and distance. One for the shortlist if the surface not too soft.

Form: 13-4064

Forecasts

Nasee (6/4), Imperial Court (4/1), Fields Of Fortune (9/2), Hatsaway (13/2), Nabhan (15/2), Velvet Vision (17/2), Princess Harley (12/1), Potters Lady Jane (12/1), Aria Rose (14/1), Remember The Man (16/1), Contingency Fee (25/1), Norab (33/1)

The lightly-raced FIELDS OF FORTUNE is a tentative selection given his ability to act on the expected soft surface and showed his well being recently at Nottingham. Norab is capable on his day and has some fair recent form. Nasee may prove best of those who have yet to race on a soft surface while Arla Rose has decent place chances if acting on the ground.
