Broad Appeal²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Tyler Saunders| T: J G Portman| OR: 64| D

13/2

Ended long losing streak when scoring tidily in similar event at Leicester three weeks ago. More to do at the weights but one to consider. Yet to race on a really soft surface.

Form: 4424-21

Contrast⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Marco Ghiani⁽⁵⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 63

20/1

Smart performer when with Richard Hannon two years ago but has been on a downward spiral since joining current trainer. Step up in trip will suit. Market should be the best guide.

Form: 685907

Captain Scott^b1¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Luke Catton⁽⁵⁾| T: H Main| OR: 62

50/1

Lightly-raced; has shown slight promise on a couple of occasions but finished a remote last on latest start at Haydock on soft ground. Hard to see him getting competitive unless first-time blinkers do the trick.

Form: 4560

Seaborn²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: William Carver| T: P R Chamings| OR: 62| BF

3/1

Landed a gamble when scoring at Brighton in April following a long abscence from the track. Not beaten far (finished well) at Lingfield last time out. Could still be progressing. One to consider.

Form: 0719/12

Movie Star¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 62

9/1

Improved effort at Yarmouth last time out over 1m2f but struggled over two furlongs further the time before qat Wolverhampton.. Still lightly raced and open to improvement. Definite chance.

Form: 420-203

(14)

Tulane²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: R T Phillips| OR: 60

8/1

Took a long time to settle in his first race for two years last time at Sandown (1m2f) last month but still put in a nice performance considering. Acts on soft ground. Any market moved would be interesting.

Form: 7300/6

(12)

Esspeegee^p¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Jessica Cooley⁽³⁾| T: A Bailey| OR: 60

50/1

At his best two years ago over this trip winning races at Newcastle and Brighton. Has been on a downward curve ever since and little to like about his reappearance run at Haydock earlier this month.

Form: 00-7800

(11)

King Athelstan²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rhys Clutterbuck⁽⁵⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 60

11/1

Reliable and consistent gelding who put up one of his better performances last time out at his favoured course Brighton over 1m2f. Stays this trip and handles a bit of cut. Obviously in good heart at the moment and one for the shortlist.

Form: 3225-63

(6)

Rainbow Jazz^b,e/s⁷⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: A West| OR: 58

40/1

Busy but inconsistent gelding. Last two runs have been below par and only hope here is recent break has done him good. Stays this trip well and acts on an easy surface.

Form: 534-906

(15)

Rocksette^p¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Louis Garoghan⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 50

14/1

Nearly back on last winning handicap mark. That win came at Brighton over 1m2f. Not disgraced when tried over this trip for the only time. Yet to race on the predicted soft surface - holds good place chances if she does.

Form: 417-587

(9)

Kaylen's Mischief⁵^{(ex 5)}

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Scott McCullagh| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 45| D

9/2

Enterprisingly ridden and a game, all-the-way winner of a Yarmouth handicap five days ago. A reproduction of that form would see him go close but more to do under his penalty.

Form: 0/569-71

(1)

Seventii⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Aled Beech| T: R Eddery| OR: 45| D

10/1

Consistent of late at Lingfield and Yarmouth (twice). Turned out quickly after finishing behind Kaylen's Mischief last week. Should appreciate step up in trip and holds every chance.

Form: 700533

(2)

Briac⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-7| J: Sean Kirrane⁽³⁾| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 45

16/1

Chaser/hurdler whose last two runs on the flat have been very disappointing. Best left out of calculations unless market speaks in his favour.

SEABORN has been racing with renewed zest of late and can land this contest for his in-form trainer. Kaylen's Mischief can run another big race having scored recently at Yarmouth especially if his jockey can get him to the front early. King Athelstan and Rocksette are a pair who could well at decent prices if things fall their way.
