Chicago Socks

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Finley Marsh⁽³⁾| T: W De Best-Turner

100/1

Catcher In The Rye horse. His dam was a maiden but a half-sister to Jonny Ebeneezer who won at distances up to 7f. Has to concede weight to the rest of the field due to his age on his debut here. Others make more of an appeal in the race.

Knockacullion¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes

5/2

Has shown some promise on his two starts so far where he has hit the frame on both occasions on the AW, including latest at Kempton (1m) when he was third of nine. Stepping up in trip here on opening turf run which should suit him. One to consider.

Form: 33

(10)

Lumination¹⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: M Meade

11/8

Made a modest start to his career at Kempton (1m) on the AW when fifth of 10. Took a step forward last time at this track over 1m2f as he came home third of 12. Stepping up in trip where he is open to improvement. Big player.

Form: 53

(8)

Riverfront²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding

8/1

Has had two appearances so far where he has failed to reach the frame on both occasions. He was sixth of nine on his latest start at Lingfield over this 1m2f. More needed but he is open to improvement so not to be discounted.

Form: 66

Scarlett Sun

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: T P Queally| T: G G Margarson

20/1

Sun Central colt whose dam won over 1m. He is a half-brother to multiple winners, including Red Scintilla who won over 6f and 7f. Keep an eye out for any market confidence behind him on his debut.

Aspiring Diva¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: G Mosse| T: M Moubarak

40/1

Has struggled on her two starts so far where she has only beaten a single horse in each of those outings. She was sixth of seven last time at Nottingham (1m½f). Needs to take a huge step forward on what she has shown so far at this new trip.

Form: 06

Gibraltarian¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Charlie Bennett| T: J R Boyle

33/1

Yet to shine in her two appearances to date. She was a long way off the winner last time when seventh of 16 at Windsor over 1m2f after going off at 100/1. First attempt at this distance. Difficult to fancy.

Form: 57

(11)

Heavenly Tale¹⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Harry Bentley| T: R M Beckett

4/1

Well-bred filly who showed some promise on her debut at Lingfield (1m2f) on the AW where she was second of six. Was disappointing last time at that same track over 1m4f. First run on turf here. Worth consideration as she is likely to improve.

Form: 26

(4)

Torbellino¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Kieren Fox| T: J R Best

33/1

Made her debut at this track over 1m2f last month where she finished eighth of 16 after going off at 100/1. Stepping up in trip on what is her second start. More is needed to be in the mix at the finish here.

Form: 8

(2)

Waterfall²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Cieren Fallon⁽⁵⁾| T: L Wadham

14/1

Was third of nine on her debut at Wolverhampton (1m1½f) in what was a promising start. Did not build upon it last time though as she could only finish ninth of at 10 at Kempton (1m4f). Needs to improve on her third appearance.

Form: 39

Forecasts

Lumination (11/8), Knockacullion (5/2), Heavenly Tale (4/1), Riverfront (8/1), Waterfall (14/1), Scarlett Sun (20/1), Social City (25/1), Torbellino (33/1), Gibraltarian (33/1), Aspiring Diva (40/1), Chicago Socks (100/1)

LUMINATION produced a really promising display here over a shorter trip last time and looks open to improvement at this longer trip so this is a good opportunity for him to break his maiden at the third attempt. Knockacullion has shaped like he has needed more of a stamina test on his two appearances so far so expect a big run from him on what is his first start on turf, while there is likely to be more to come from Heavenly Tale on what she has shown so far so include her in your calculations.
