Laqab⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: A Elliott| T: D Shaw| OR: 55| D

20/1

Has fallen rapidly down the weights this year following some disappointing efforts. His latest appearance came on the AW at Wolverhampton (1m½f) where he could only finish seventh of 13. Needs to improve to be in the mix.

Form: 460087

Don't Be Surprised³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Sean Davis⁽³⁾| T: S Spencer| OR: 55

12/1

Lightly-raced gelding who is still looking for his first win after six runs. He was second of nine on his latest appearance at Hamilton (1m1f). Up in trip on this latest attempt which might help his chances. One to consider.

Form: 755-442

Blyton Lass¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: J G Given| OR: 49| D

12/1

Recorded her first win on turf last time at Thirsk (1m) in a seller where she stayed on strongly to get up in the closing stages which suggests this step up in distance will help. Has gone up just 1lb since her latest success. Has good claims.

Form: 545471

Majestic Stone¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: G Lee| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 49

8/1

Won earlier this season at Carlisle (1m3f, soft). Has been unable to follow it up on his two starts since then, with his latest run coming at Doncaster (1m4f) when fourth of nine. Down in trip and back off his last winning mark so in with a chance.

Form: 23-3144

Inflexiball²³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: J Fanning| T: J Mackie| OR: 47| D

12/1

Her last success came in July 2017 but she showed some promise two starts back over this C&D when a close fifth of 10. Was much further back last time at Doncaster (1m2f). Has been eased 4lb but others are preferred here.

Form: 50-0758

(10)

Bigdabog²⁸⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Cam Hardie| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 46

40/1

Has been well beaten on all six starts so far, including latest appearance at Pontefract last October where he was last of 11. First run for new yard here but it is very difficult to make a case for him.

Form: 70/3700-

Bigbadboy³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: A Mullen| T: C A Mulhall| OR: 46| C| D

4/1

On a long losing stretch which goes back to August 2017. Produced his best run in a while last time though at this track over 1m2f when second of 10, beaten by just ½L. Has gone up only 1lb for that attempt. Big chance.

Form: 46/0-902

(11)

Call Him Al¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 55

16/1

Broke his maiden in a nursery at Musselburgh (7f) last August but has been unable to add to that since. He was a little better on his latest appearance at Catterick (7f) when fifth of 14. Down 3lb. Has to be respected off this mark.

Form: 400655

Bob's Girl^b⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: J Quinn| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 45

25/1

Still looking for her first win after 18 starts. Was fourth of seven at this track back in May over 1m2f but since then has not built upon that. Has been eased 5lb but has to improve to be in with a chance.

Form: 404707

(5)

John Caesar^p⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: D Tudhope| T: Rebecca Bastiman| OR: 45| CD

6/1

A C&D winner who has gone off the boil a little bit this season. She was seventh of 11 here last time over 1m2f. Has gone down 2lb since that outing. Needs to try and find some old form if he is to be competitive.

Form: 689477

(8)

Jimmy Krankyar⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: B A Curtis| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 52

25/1

Lightly-raced gelding who has had just the four starts. He had just one horse behind him on his handicap debut last time at Hamilton (1m½f). Stepping up in trip and has been eased 2lb. Others are more appealing.

Form: 509-9

(17)

Brutalab⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 51| BF

5/2

Remains a maiden after eight starts but has been running consistently well this season without success. Was second of 10 at this track last time over 1m2f. Remains off the same mark over a slightly shorter trip. Leading player.

Form: 073342

Thornton Le Clay³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Nathan Evans| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 48

20/1

Has struggled on all three of his starts so far but makes his handicap debut today over a shorter trip than last time at Hamilton (1m4f) where he was fourth of five. Keep an eye out for any market confidence behind him.

Form: 074

Mi Laddo^p,t⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: C J McGovern⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 47

14/1

Remains a maiden after 10 races. Returns to turf after finishing sixth of 10 on the AW at Wolverhampton on his latest start when going off at 20/1. Needs to improve on what he has shown so far if he is to score off this mark.

Forecasts

Brutalab (5/2), Bigbadboy (4/1), John Caesar (6/1), Majestic Stone (8/1), Blyton Lass (12/1), Inflexiball (12/1), Don't Be Surprised (12/1), Mi Laddo (14/1), Call Him Al (16/1), Bromance (16/1), Laqab (20/1), Thornton Le Clay (20/1), Bob's Girl (25/1), Jimmy Krankyar (25/1), Aneedh (33/1), King's Coinage (33/1), Bigdabog (40/1)

This looks a great opportunity for BRUTALAB to break his maiden. He came close here last time over a longer trip but he can go one place better now in what will be a reward for his consistent performances. Bigbadboy was much more encouraging last time when going down narrowly here in his best performance for a while. A repeat of that run will see him go close, while Don't Be Surprised may be capable of more on his step up in trip so he looks to have a good chance of hitting the frame.
