5/1

Returned from a break with a nose victory in a C&D Listed contest early last month. Beaten ½L when runner-up over the same trip at Ripon (good) later that month and is one to note in this contest.

Indian Tygress⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 85| D

7/2

Finished ½L fourth in a valuable 6f handicap at Kempton in April. Disappointed on soft ground in Listed company at Nottingham (6f) subsequently and return to the AW is in her favour.

Form: 161-348

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 89| CD

12/1

Winner of half of her eight AW starts and victorious by a neck over this trip at Chester (good) last time out. Raised 4lb for that success and is interesting having won over C&D in the past.

Furious¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Dylan Hogan⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 88| CD

6/1

Unbeaten in two AW starts including when victorious by 2L over this trip at Wolverhampton earlier this month. Has to defy a 6lb rise if he's to follow up but was a winner over this C&D in October last year.

Form: 516-1

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: S C Williams| OR: 80| CD

16/1

C&D winner was making her seasonal debut when finishing fourth over this trip at Windsor (good) last month. More needed if she is to register a third career success.

5/1

Unbeaten in two starts this campaign following up a C&D victory in April with a success on good-to-firm ground over this trip at Hamilton the following month. Remains open to improvement following a 5lb rise in the weights.

Form: 545-11

25/1

Returning from well over a year off the track when finishing 16L last of seven over an extended 1m at Nottingham (good-to-firm) in April. Probably best watched dropping in trip.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 83| D

9/2

Victorious in a soft ground novice event over this trip at Lingfield on her penultimate start. Struggled on handicap debut in a valuable 7f contest at Goodwood (good) two weeks later and return to this trip should suit.

Form: 22-210

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Hayley Turner| T: M L W Bell| OR: 78| D

20/1

Improved markedly on seasonal debut when finishing third in a small field 7f handicap at this venue earlier this month. Drop in trip not certain to suit.

Forecasts

Indian Tygress (7/2), Alhakmah (9/2), Shimmering Dawn (5/1), Isaan Queen (5/1), Puds (5/1), Furious (6/1), Accommodate (10/1), Probability (12/1), Restless Rose (16/1), Porcelain Girl (20/1), Lady Of Aran (25/1)

SHIMMERING DAWN has shown good form in winning twice form as many starts this campaign and she can complete a hat-trick by taking this competitive fillies only handicap. The selection can get the better of top weight Puds who can defy a wide draw to claim second place ahead of Isaan Queen who was a Listed winner at this venue on her penultimate start.
