4/6
Switched yards earlier this month and he then produced his best run yet when he was second of eight at Wolverhampton (7f) on the AW, beaten by ¾L. Stepping down in trip here which should suit. Leading contender.

14/1
Dutch Art gelding who cost 80,000 gns as a yearling. His dam was a winner over 5f as a two-year-old. Likely type on his opening appearance so not to ignore, especially if there is strong market confidence before the race.

4/1
Was third of six on her debut at this course over 7f where she weakened in the closing stages after going off at 8/1. Should improve on her second start here over a slightly shorter distance. Worth consideration.

4/1
Has come close to her first success on a number of occasions in her seven starts on track. Her latest appearance came in a handicap contest at Newmarket (7f) where she was eighth of 12. She sets the standard here. Big player.

Forecasts

Mohareb (4/6), Rhossili Down (4/1), Reims (4/1), Nigel Nott (14/1), Arthur Shelby (25/1)

Verdict

This looks a fantastic opportunity for RHOSSILI DOWN to break her maiden as the standard she has reached so far is likely to be enough to claim this contest. Mohareb is the strongest challenger on the evidence of his latest run where he was second at Wolverhampton so expect to see the gelding in contention at the finish, while Reims can build upon her debut outing at this track to be in the mix over this shorter distance.
  1. Rhossili Down
  2. Mohareb
  3. Reims
