7/2

Successful when taking a 6f handicap at Nottingham (good) earlier this month. Raised 4lb for that victory and is one to note for a leading yard.

10/1

Won and placed this season but disappointing at Carlisle on two most recent starts. Chances that a return to this venue will spark a revival having won off a 5lb lower mark over 7f here in May.

9/4

Maiden winner by a head over this trip on good-to-firm going at Yarmouth in May. Promising ¾L third in a 7f event on the AW at Kempton on handicap debut a month ago. Return to this trip no issue.

9/1

Finished a good 1¾L fourth in an 18 runner C&D handicap on good-to-firm ground at the start of this month. Races off a 1lb higher mark here and is well handicapped on her old form.

Winner of a 7f novice race at Wolverhampton last December. Held in two starts on turf subsequently and probably best watched at present.

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Ben Robinson⁽³⁾| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 60

25/1

Placed in a couple of AW novice races most recently at Newcastle (5f) in early May. Failed to figure on handicap debut at Carlisle (5f, heavy) later that month and others make more appeal on return from a break.

Form: 0-335

11/2

Successful in claiming company at Naas (6f, good) in September last year. Best effort in three starts for this stable came when 1¼L second at Carlisle (6f, good-to-firm) earlier this month. Interesting despite racing from out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Local History (9/4), Stewardess (7/2), Fox Hill (11/2), Pinarella (11/2), Santafiora (15/2), Fumbo Jumbo (9/1), Supaulette (10/1), Essenza (20/1), Elysee Star (22/1), Sapphire Jubilee (25/1), Raspberry (33/1)

Top weight STEWARDESS performed well when winning last time out and she can defy a 4lb rise in the weights to follow-up that victory with a success in this competitive sprint handicap. Second place can go to Supaulette who has won and placed from two starts here this season while Local History can take third dropping in distance.
