Hyanna²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 89| D

7/2

Needed the run her reappearance but been in good form since; won at Salisbury at the start of last month and also ran with credit when third here last time. On a career highest mark but this lacks strength in depth.

Form: 242-613

White Chocolate²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: J P Spencer| T: D M Simcock| OR: 88| C

7/2

Just over 3l behind Hyanna here last time and is only 1lb better off at the weights. The ground should be to her liking though. The betting will be informative with regard to expectations held of her reversing the form.

Form: 12306-4

Katiesheidinlisa³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 87| D

9/4

Landed a brace earlier in the campaign and possible the filly just didn't handle the camber when she was eased at Chester last time out. She's 7lb higher than for her last win but doesn't have many miles on the clock. Feasible she can bounce back.

Form: 64-110

(2)

Kvetuschka³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: P W Chapple-Hyam| OR: 81

8/1

Well beaten when flying high in the Oaks Trial at Lingfield but the result suggests she had faced an impossible task anyway; this is also a lot tougher than the novice stakes she won previously and she looks harshly treated from a mark of 81.

Form: 0-15

(7)

Chartered²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Josephine Gordon| T: R M Beckett| OR: 78

3/1

Debuts in a handicap after three modest starts; well beaten over an extended mile here last time (hung right near the finish) and arrives with plenty to prove.

Form: 72-4

Forecasts

Winged Spur (2/1), Katiesheidinlisa (9/4), Chartered (3/1), Hyanna (7/2), White Chocolate (7/2), Kvetuschka (8/1), Miss Mumtaz (8/1)

The ground will be key to WHITE CHOCOLATE turning the tables on Hyanna but the David Simcock-trained mare has the more proven liking for the predicted going and is rated as the better value option this time. Winged Spur is a tough filly but she too needs to prove her effectiveness under the conditions, but doesn't have much to find from just 3lb above her latest winning mark. Kvetuschka had no chance in the Oaks Trial at Lingfield but can find her level in handicaps. Her connections will have more of an idea of where to go next after this.
