My Brother Mike⁶⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: T E Whelan| T: K Frost| OR: 55| D

20/1

Won on the AW at Kempton (1m3f) earlier this year but his three runs since then have been poor. He is yet to score on turf (13 runs), including latest when he had just one horse behind him in a 13 runner field at Leicester (1m2f). Others preferred.

Form: 40-1680

(10)

Arlecchino's Arc^v¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: David Probert| T: M D I Usher| OR: 55| D

8/1

Won twice on the AW earlier this year but his form on turf has not been as good. He was 10th of 12 last time at Goodwood (1m3f). Has to show much more than his three previous attempts on turf. Hard to fancy.

Form: 731160

(5)

Acadian Angel^p1²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Toby Eley⁽⁷⁾| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 54| D

33/1

Was a winner at Redcar over this distance on his last run of 2018. His form since then has not been great. Was last of 15 on his latest start at Nottingham (1m2f). Cheek pieces on for first time. Much more needed than recent attempts.

Form: 28-6670

(11)

Delirium^p²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: R Kingscote| T: E De Giles| OR: 53| D

7/2

Was a winner over this distance at Chepstow early last season but has been unable to follow it up since then. Was seventh of nine on his opening start of the year at Wetherby (1m2f). Needs to improve but now off 3lb lower than last winning mark.

Form: 62500-7

Windsorlot²⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: George Downing| T: A W Carroll| OR: 52| CD

16/1

Experienced gelding who is a C&D winner here. Has been a long way down the field on his starts this season, including latest when seventh of 11 at Wolverhampton (1m½f) on the AW. Off a fair mark now but others preferred.

Form: 2460-07

(9)

Frantical²⁶⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 50| D

25/1

Was fifth of 13 on his last start at this course over 1m where he was staying on strongly to suggest this step up in distance will suit him. This will be his first outing since October but he has won off this mark before. One for shortlist.

Form: 368475-

(6)

Howardian Hills^b1¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: V R A Dartnall| OR: 50

8/1

Had a good campaign last season with success coming on the AW at Kempton (1m4f). Has yet to hit the frame on his two starts this season, including latest at Las Landes when fourth of nine. Blinkers on for first time and big chance off current mark.

Form: 2143-64

(7)

Guardiola^b1,t⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Joshua Bryan⁽³⁾| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 48

25/1

Still a maiden after 13 races and although there were signs he was heading in the right direction in 2018, he has been a long way down the field in both of his starts this season. Blinkers on for first time. Needs to improve to be in the mix.

Form: 2249-09

(12)

Golden Deal¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: T P Queally| T: R T Phillips| OR: 48

22/1

Remains a maiden following eight attempts. Was eighth of 12 runners on the AW at Lingfield (1m) last time. Taking a step up in distance here. Much more needed than she has shown so far in her career.

Form: 88/70-68

(3)

Just Right³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 47

16/1

Still bidding for his first success after 12 runs so far. Came close to opening victory at Lingfield (1m3½f) in 2018 when second of 12. Could only finish sixth of 14 last time time at Chepstow (1m2f). Others preferred here.

Form: 2037-66

(2)

Prerogative^b²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: A W Carroll| OR: 47| D

7/1

Scored at Chelmsford (1m2f) on the AW earlier this year but has been unable to follow that up since. Was a little better last time at Brighton when fifth of eight (1m2f). Off a career low mark now so he is very capable if he bounces back.

Form: 168775

(8)

Allofmelovesallofu²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: P J Dobbs| T: K O Cunningham-Brown| OR: 46

8/1

Still looking for his opening win after 12 starts. Has taken a significant drop in his mark since his handicap debut. Could only finish eighth of 13 last time at Lingfield (1m2f). Should improve from opening mark of season. One to watch.

Form: 43386-8

(4)

Summa Force^b1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: F Sweeney| T: R Hannon| OR: 55

25/1

Has only once hit the frame in his six starts so far, that was when third of seven at Ffos Las (7½f) last August. On his last outing he could only finish ninth of 11 at Yarmouth (1m3½f). Blinkers on for first time. Needs to improve.

Form: 0736-09

(14)

Confils²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: P Cosgrave| T: George Baker| OR: 55

6/1

Lightly-raced filly who has yet to really threaten so far in her career. She was fifth of nine last time at Brighton (1m2f). Open to improvement against older and less exposed rivals here. One to consider.

Form: 07-605

Forecasts

Delirium (7/2), Confils (6/1), Prerogative (7/1), Allofmelovesallofu (8/1), Howardian Hills (8/1), Arlecchino's Arc (8/1), Just Right (16/1), Windsorlot (16/1), My Brother Mike (20/1), Golden Deal (22/1), Frantical (25/1), Guardiola (25/1), Summa Force (25/1), Acadian Angel (33/1)

Many of these are bang out of form and taking a big step down the handicap. The least exposed horse in the race is CONFILS who could take advantage of the weights to claim the contest if she improves from her promising run at Brighton last time out. Delerium and Frantical are now both off winnable marks and have to be respected if they can produce something close to their best form.
