Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: D Tudhope| T: A Watson| OR: 87

13/2

Dual winner but was beaten 40L over an extended 2m on soft ground at York recently. Blinkers (first time) replaced the cheekpieces worn for the first time on that occasion.

Form: 05-3495

Piedita¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 83| D

8/1

Returning from a lengthy absence when beaten 21L in a 2m handicap at Ascot (good-to-firm) last time out. Likely to have improved for the run and interesting to see how she fares.

Form: 12/610-7

Rochester House²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 87| D

1/3

Justified odds-on favouritism when winning by 8L in a three runner 2m handicap at Beverley (good-to-firm) last month. Raised 5lb for that victory and strong claims of following up that victory.

Form: 334321

The Resdev Way²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Paula Muir⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 70| C

14/1

Decent third in a five runner handicap over an extended 2m at York (good-to-firm) last time out. Non-runner twice subsequently and races off a mark 9lb higher than for his latest success.

Forecasts

Rochester House (1/3), Yabass (13/2), Piedita (8/1), The Resdev Way (14/1)

ROCHESTER HOUSE impressed in winning a small field contest last time out and he can follow-up with a victory in this staying handicap. Second place can go to The Resdev Way who ran well when placed on his most recent start while top weight Yabass, who wears blinkers for the first time can get the better of Piedita in the battle for third.
