Bonsai Bay⁷³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: George Downing| T: Ian Williams

8/1

Failed to complete in three of his four bumpers for Jedd O'Keeffe and his Flat debut for David Evans 73 days ago saw the vet report he'd bled from the nose and have an irregular heartbeat. Another new yard now and best watched.

Form: P

Clap Your Hands¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Poppy Bridgwater⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 72

2/9

Signs of ability in his first three outings and stepped up to 1m6f, he finished second on handicap debut at Wolverhampton, beaten 1L., 19 days ago. That is the best form on offer here and should take all the beating.

Form: 5442

Jailbreak^p¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: C Allen| OR: 42

18/1

10-race maiden, yet to hit the frame in seven AW starts. Only beat one rival when beaten 13L at Kempton (1m3f) two weeks ago. Up in trip here again and has little to recommend.

Form: 490070

Maykir⁸⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: A McCarthy| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 40

33/1

An eight-race maiden who has been well beaten on two starts for this yard. Tried 2m for the first time when beaten 20L at Kempton most recently and it's hard to be enthusiastic on what we've seen thus far.

Form: 90-8496

(3)

Hidden Pearl¹²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Sophie Ralston⁽⁵⁾| T: John Berry| OR: 59

6/1

Bred to be better than shown but has shown very little for two previous trainers and sold for just 2,000 gns to join this yard. Her debut for them saw her finish last of five, beaten 11L at Brighton in August and this is her first run since.

Form: 647-685

Forecasts

Clap Your Hands (2/9), Hidden Pearl (6/1), Bonsai Bay (8/1), Jailbreak (18/1), Maykir (33/1)

A very weak affair with only CLAP YOUR HANDS having shown any noteworthy form to date. Something would have to go seriously amiss for him to be defeated here. Of the rest, Hidden Pearl is bred to stay this sort of trip whilst Jailbreak has made the frame once before, which is more than can be said for the others.
