Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Andrew Breslin⁽⁵⁾| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 55

28/1

10-race maiden has completely lost his way for this yard and his previous and impossible to make a case for at present.

Form: 458-090

(10)

Airplane²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: Paul Collins| OR: 54| D

28/1

Has fallen to a winnable mark but not a lot to take away from two tailed off efforts in last place since joining this yard.

Form: 665600

Raven's Raft¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: S Donohoe| T: D Loughnane| OR: 54| CD

12/1

Last win came off 5lb higher over this C&D in April but her form since then has been well below that level. Others preferred.

Form: 676999

About Glory^b,t²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Jamie Gormley| T: I Jardine| OR: 53

3/1

Has returned from a break with back-to-back Bath wins, a Newcastle fourth and a second when hampered late over this C&D. Likely to be involved again.

Form: 001142

Lyford^p⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: A C Whillans| OR: 53

12/1

On a competitive mark but now just one win from 20 starts and very well beaten last twice. Hard to fancy at present.

Form: 14-4400

Bunker Hill Lad¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 50

100/1

Six-race maiden hasn't shown much and been generally well beaten so far. Easy to overlook until signs of more promise.

Form: 05400-0

Mamdood^t,v⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Megan Nicholls⁽³⁾| T: Stef Keniry| OR: 49| D

8/11

Finally took advantage of a rapidly reduced mark when winning over a similar trip at Newcastle last start. Won well and while he can be inconsistent, he's an obvious player.

Form: 080-931

Thecornishbarron²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Sadik| OR: 47

80/1

Lost his way on his last two starts for Brian Ellison and completely tailed off following a break on stable debut, Easy to dismiss.

Form: 222800

Mrs Ivy^b²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 52

15/2

Some signs of promise on handicap debut but the field finished in a bunch and the strength of form is questionable. Still with a good stable so could improve.

Form: 0-580

(7)

Pot Luck⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Jane Elliott| T: Mrs S A Watt| OR: 48

80/1

10-race maiden finished tailed off on her last two starts for Andrew Balding. Sold for just £1,500 since and best watched for new stable.

Form: 5-07409

Forecasts

Mamdood (8/11), About Glory (3/1), Blyton Lass (7/2), Ramatuelle (4/1), Mrs Ivy (15/2), Lyford (12/1), Raven's Raft (12/1), Airplane (28/1), War Drums (28/1), Pot Luck (80/1), Thecornishbarron (80/1), Bunker Hill Lad (100/1)

BLYTON LASS is a bang-in form filly who has been winning with a strong burst of speed that suggests she can once again defy a new mark. About Glory is also in good heart and was a but unlucky here last time. Mamdood is another coming off the back of a win and remains well handicapped.
