Beechwood Jude¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Shane Gray| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 71

5/1

Good second over 1m4f at Doncaster (good) on seasonal debut in April. Disappointed in two subsequent starts however and others appear to hold stronger claims.

Form: 974-296

Soloist^p¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P Hanagan| T: W J Haggas| OR: 68

7/1

Promising 3L seventh in a 1m2f event at Ripon (good) on handicap debut earlier this month. Cheekpieces worn for the first time that day are retained stepping up in distance.

Form: 0777

George Mallory²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 67

13/2

Signs of ability in two starts over 1m earlier this year but struggled upped to 1m2f at Haydock (good-to-firm) last time out and is probably best watched at present.

Form: 698-466

Salam Zayed¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D Nolan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 66

6/1

Ran well when 5L fourth in a 1m2f handicap at Nottingham (good) on stable and seasonal debut earlier this month. Interesting stepping up in distance.

Form: 47606-4

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: M Dods| OR: 65

6/1

Five race maiden was beaten 5L in a soft ground 1m handicap at this venue just under three weeks ago. Stamina to prove stepping up in trip.

Form: 733-55

(9)

Arms Of The Angel¹⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Aiden Smithies⁽⁷⁾| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 64

20/1

Placed once from five starts and was beaten 16L when finishing seventh over 1m at Southwell iin December. Probably best watched on seasonal debut.

Euro Implosion¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 63| BF

6/1

First start since being gelded when finishing a good third over 1m2f at Beverley (good-to-soft) last month. Step back up in trip looks likely to suit following a fifth over 1m1f at Hamilton (soft) subsequently.

Form: 5760-35

(2)

Menin Gate¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 63

9/1

Well beaten in three starts this year including when 12L ninth over 1m1f at Hamilton (soft) last time out. Stamina to prove stepping up in distance.

Form: 4-879

(3)

Ateescomponent²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: R P Downey| T: T D Barron| OR: 62

25/1

Signs of ability in two of his three starts so far. Beaten 12L when sixth over 1m2f at Redcar (good-to-firm) last time out and is worth a check in the market on handicap debut.

Form: 6-06

(10)

Brutalab¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 52

8/1

Good third in a 1m contest at Wetherby (good-to-firm) on handicap debut just under three weeks ago. Races off the same mark here and is bred to appreciate this step up in trip.

Form: 0073

Forecasts

Beechwood Jude (5/1), Euro Implosion (6/1), Beaufort (6/1), Salam Zayed (6/1), George Mallory (13/2), Soloist (7/1), Brutalab (8/1), Menin Gate (9/1), Arms Of The Angel (20/1), Ateescomponent (25/1)

BRUTALAB showed promise when placed on handicap debut last time out and stepping up markedly in distance he can get off the mark at the fifth attempt in this three-year-old only handicap. The selection can see off Salam Zayed who is another who is stepping up in distance while third place can go to Soloist who represents a leading stable.
