Thunderoad¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: George Downing| T: A W Carroll| OR: 62

9/2

Remains a maiden after 11 starts, however, he went very close to his opening success last time at Chelmsford (1m2f) on the AW when he finished second of 11, beaten by a head. Up 2lb but still looks to be off a winnable mark.

Rosamour^b¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: George Rooke⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 60| CD

11/2

Scored over this C&D back in August 2018. Her form recently has been disappointing. She finished eighth of 14 at Chepstow (7f). Is down to a new career low mark so she has to be respected.

Form: 737658

Lolita Pulido^t1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 60

25/1

Lightly-raced filly who is still a maiden. She has yet to improve since joining handicap company. Has failed to beat a horse in her last two starts. Tongue-tie is on for the first time. Needs to improve in order to be in the mix here.

Form: 465-685

(14)

Reconnaissance^b,t²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: Tom Clover| OR: 59

5/1

Still a maiden after 10 appearances. He was second of nine at Yarmouth (1m) two runs back. Could only come home fifth of 13 over that same C&D on his latest appearance. Down 1lb and has to be considered.

Form: 4-67625

Kennocha^p1,t¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 56

12/1

Scored on the AW at Lingfield (6f) back in June but is still looking for her first win on turf. She was sixth of 11 last time at Chelmsford (7f) on the AW. Cheekpieces are on for the first time here. Others are preferred on this surface.

Form: 77-1296

(8)

Tarrzan³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Liam Jones| T: J Gallagher| OR: 52

12/1

Has been running consistently well without success recently. He was third of eight here over this C&D last time off a 1lb higher mark than this. Stepping up in trip now which should suit. One for the shortlist.

Form: 284223

(13)

Keep It Country Tv²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: J F Egan| T: P Phelan| OR: 49

14/1

Has some solid form on the AW where his sole victory came at Lingfield (7f) last December. He was ninth of 13 here over 7f three runs ago. Is back to his last winning mark but his form on this surface is a big concern.

Form: 13-6998

(7)

Tattenhams²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Raul Da Silva| T: A West| OR: 48

5/1

Remains a maiden after seven starts. The closest she has come to victory was at Lingfield (1m1f) where she only went down by a neck when she was second of 12. Needs to bounce back from latest attempt here over 1m2f.

Form: 800245

(6)

Poetic Legacy⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 45

15/2

Has only featured four times so far where she has struggled on the track. She made her handicap debut last time at Chelmsford (7f) on the AW but could only finish fifth of eight. Needs to improve but is open to improvement.

Form: 05-85

(2)

Pinkie Pie³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Ryan Powell| T: A Crook| OR: 45

66/1

Dual-purpose filly who has yet to score in seven races. She was eighth of 11 on her latest attempt at Nottingham (1m2f) when going off at 66/1. Dropping down in distance. Others makes more of an appeal.

Form: 407-498

(10)

Forthwith¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: B Doyle| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

9/1

Is a maiden after five races. Her form has improved since joining handicap company. She was fifth of 15 on her latest effort at Chepstow (1m). Has been eased 3lb. Worth considering off this mark.

Form: 0-8545

(1)

Moon Artist¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: M Blanshard| OR: 45

33/1

Her form has been mixed this season as she still looks for her first win. She was eighth of 14 on her latest effort at Epsom (7f). Down 6lb since last start. Needs to take a huge step forward to be in the mix.

Form: 505048

Forecasts

Thunderoad (9/2), Tattenhams (5/1), Reconnaissance (5/1), Rosamour (11/2), Young General (7/1), Poetic Legacy (15/2), Forthwith (9/1), Kennocha (12/1), Tarrzan (12/1), Princess Florence (12/1), Keep It Country Tv (14/1), Lolita Pulido (25/1), Moon Artist (33/1), Pinkie Pie (66/1)

THUNDEROAD is still looking for his first success, however, he showed last time at Chelmsford on the AW that he is ready to win and that opening victory can come here. Tarrzan has done very little wrong recently and should once again be thereabouts at the finish, while Reconnaissance looks open to improvement and off this latest mark, is likely to be finishing in the placings at the very least here.
