Esspeegee^v¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: A Bailey| OR: 65| CD

1/1

Returned to winning ways with an impressive 3¾L success over C&D on good-to-firm ground last month. Visor worn for the first time that day is retained and he is one to note despite a 6lb rise in the weights.

9/2

Victorious over this trip in a Pontefract (good-to-soft) maiden last October. Held in all five starts this campaign and is worth a check in the market off a career low mark.

Form: 1-66465

Sea Of Mystery^t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 60

12/1

18 race maiden has finished well beaten in three starts since joining this stable including in a first time visor (absent here) last time out. Market support would be notable down in trip.

Form: 224/008

10/1

Victorious over an extended 1m3f at Lingfield (good-to-firm) a month ago. Held in both subsequent starts and drop in trip should suit having finished 28L third over 2m1f at Bath (good-to-firm) last week.

Form: 040163

Kirtling^t¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: J Mitchell| T: Andi Brown| OR: 56| D

5/1

Stepped up on his return from a break when finishing 6L third in a C&D handicap on good-to-firm ground last time out. Notable runner racing off a mark 1lb higher than for his most recent success.

Form: 43-1093

Brockagh Cailin²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: L P Keniry| T: J S Moore| OR: 55

33/1

Firm ground handicap winner over 1m at Bath in May. Disappointing since and stamina to prove on first attempt at this distance.

11/1

Nine time course winner including over this C&D and ran well when runner-up over an extended 1m3f at Windsor (good) on his penultimate start. Interesting runner despite disappointing over C&D last time out.

Forecasts

Esspeegee (1/1), Beer With The Boys (9/2), Kirtling (5/1), Foresee (6/1), Contingency Fee (10/1), Roy Rocket (11/1), Sea Of Mystery (12/1), Brockagh Cailin (33/1)

Top weight ESSPEEGEE was a C&D winner last time out and he can follow up that success with a victory in this middle distance handicap. The selection can get the better of Contingency Fee who is dropping back in trip here while third place can go to Kirtling who ran well when placed here last time.
