9/1

Temperamental sort. Good second of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 13/2) 29 days ago. Excellent claims from a good mark if he turns up in the same mood.

Lippy Lady⁶⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽³⁾| T: A G Newcombe| OR: 51

8/1

Unreliable sort. 22/1, first run since leaving Paul George when good second of 10 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, firm) 64 days ago, very slowly away. Big chance if she can back that up.

Rally Driver¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Mr Oliver Timms⁽⁷⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 54

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in handicap at Bath (8f, good to soft, 20/1) 14 days ago. Shaped as if better for the run and still relatively unexposed, so not dismissed.

Form: 740-5

Field of Vision^b³⁰⁸

9/2

11/1

Below form sixth of 14 in minor event (10/1) at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Struggling for form, so needs visor to perk him up.

Jupiter^v¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Saffie Osborne⁽⁷⁾| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 46| C

13/2

Course winner. One win from 32 Flat runs. Good fourth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, soft, 20/1) 16 days ago, not ideally placed. Well treated if he can build on that.

Forecasts

Kraka (7/2), Field of Vision (9/2), B Fifty Two (11/2), Jupiter (13/2), Lippy Lady (8/1), Good Luck Charm (9/1), Ubla (11/1), Cooperess (12/1), Rally Driver (20/1), Spirit Of Ishy (25/1), Heleta (33/1), Midoura (40/1), Love Not Money (100/1)

KRAKA remains well treated on turf and gave it a good go from the front when runner-up at this course 7 days ago, so he's a tentative choice to go one better in a tricky event. B Fifty Two, a wide-margin winner at Catterick 8 days ago, is a definite threat under a penalty and Lippy Lady is an interesting contender on her second outing for her current stable.
