Good Night Mr Tom¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 84| D

5/4

Got off the mark for connections at the fourth time of asking in a Hamilton 6f contest on handicap debut earlier this month off a 7lb lower mark. Likely to take some catching if keeping the same front-running tactics.

Form: 7341

(5)

Exclusively^p1²⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: B A Curtis| T: A Watson| OR: 83

4/1

Daughter of Showcasing has failed to add to her win on debut at Redcar in April. Thought good enough to contest the Albany at Royal Ascot, the juvenile has been running well in defeat of late and is likely to be in the mix in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 12024

(1)

Infinite Grace¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 80

4/1

Landed a second career win in a Ripon 5f handicap last month off a 10lb lower mark before struggling a little at Newmarket earlier this month on good to firm ground. Entitled to make the shortlist taking a significant drop in class.

Form: 108217

(8)

Woven Quality¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 8-11| J: A Mullen| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 74

12/1

Epaulette gelding, running with credit in three career starts so far including a 3¼L defeat over 7f here earlier this month. Can give a good account of himself without worrying the main protagonists on handicap debut.

Form: 436

(7)

She's Easyontheeye²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-4| J: Sean Davis⁽³⁾| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 67

33/1

Four-race maiden, produced a career best on her penultimate start over C&D last month. Well held since and likely to struggle representing a yard who are just one from 43 with handicap debutantes' in the last two years.

Form: 0838

(6)

Gold Venture¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-2| J: J Quinn| T: P A Kirby| OR: 65| D

25/1

Daughter of Dandy Man. Two from four when in the care of trainer Archie Watson. Last of 13 on a dismal stable debut at Newmarket earlier this month over 6f and looks easy to oppose despite significant drop in class.

Form: 15140

(2)

Knightcap⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-1| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 64

13/2

Seven-race maiden. Running well in defeat in a number of starts over a variety of trips since April but has always susceptible to a couple of stronger rivals. This could be a tough ask going up in grade.

Form: 554556

(3)

Bob's Oss¹⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 8-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Berry| OR: 59

50/1

Failed to hit the frame in five starts for trainer John Quinn before finishing fourth of seven on first start for new connections at Chester over 5f earlier this month. Still looking no nearer to breakthrough success.

Form: 036594

Forecasts

Good Night Mr Tom (5/4), Exclusively (4/1), Infinite Grace (4/1), Knightcap (13/2), Woven Quality (12/1), Gold Venture (25/1), She's Easyontheeye (33/1), Bob's Oss (50/1)

It appears trainer Mark Johnston has found an ideal opportunity for GOOD NIGHT MR TOM to add to his win at Hamilton park earlier this month on handicap debut. Life will be more difficult under a penalty but the Paul and Clare Rooney-owned gelding can see off any potential challenge from the likes of Exclusively, representing the Qatar operation and Infinite Grace, for trainer/jockey combination of David O'Meara and Danny Tudhope who were among the winners at Ripon with Hortzadar.
