Mauricio²³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Kieren Buckley⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 68

33/1

Winner of 1¼m Yarmouth handicap for Dr Richard Newland last summer. Not disgraced in 2 starts for new yard this season but looks vulnerable all the same.

Form: 1/1524-6

(1)

Ravenscar⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr Henry Newcombe⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 66

50/1

Posted one of his better efforts when runner-up at Newcastle (12.4f) in March. Entitled to come on for latest run at Doncaster (first start for 5 months) but improvement is needed.

Form: 252-625

(2)

Lady Scatterley⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr William Easterby| T: T D Easterby| OR: 65| D

16/5

Bounced back from a couple of heavy defeats when pulling well clear of the rest with the winner on deep ground at Catterick (12.1f) last week. Solid chance off the same mark.

Form: 1-35582

Sharp Reply³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr Simon Walker| T: S-J Davies| OR: 62

10/1

Belied odds of 150/1 when runner-up on return/debut for new yard over 1¼m here in June. Poor effort on AW last time but will be a danger to all under Sam Walker if he puts his best foot forward.

Form: 629/269

Para Queen³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr Henry Main⁽⁷⁾| T: H Main| OR: 57

7/2

Returned to form when collared close home at Windsor (11.4f) last time. 3 lb rise fair and forecast rain of no concern, so she has to enter calculations.

Form: 40-7502

(9)

Zealous^p³³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Mr Connor Wood⁽⁵⁾| T: A C Whillans| OR: 57| C

14/1

Bagged a 9f Carlisle handicap off this mark last year but hard to warm to on the back of lacklustre display at Hamilton.

Form: 628-070

(5)

Das Kapital¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Mr R Birkett| T: John Berry| OR: 53| D

2/1

Looked more straightforward than has often been the case when opening his account on return at Chepstow (1½m). 6 lb rise fair enough but needs to prove that he can back that up.

Form: 20538-1

(6)

Hugoigo^p²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Mr J Harding| T: J S Goldie| OR: 52

14/1

Just the one win to his name from 27 starts, and didn't leave the impression that he'll be adding to that anytime soon at Hamilton last month.

Form: 617-585

(8)

Majestic Stone⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Mr Aiden Blakemore⁽³⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 48

12/1

Creditable efforts on first 2 starts of the season but caution advised after completely blowing the start at Beverley last time.

Form: 37-8239

Forecasts

Das Kapital (2/1), Lady Scatterley (16/5), Para Queen (7/2), Sharp Reply (10/1), Majestic Stone (12/1), Zealous (14/1), Hugoigo (14/1), The Rutland Rebel (20/1), Mauricio (33/1), Ravenscar (50/1)

This represents a good opportunity for LADY SCATTERLEY, who pulled a long way clear of the rest when chasing home a comparatively unexposed Mark Johnston filly at Catterick last week (due to go up 3 lb for that). If the forecast rain arrives, all the better. Sharp Reply will get plenty of assistance from the saddle and is one of two live dangers, the other being Para Queen.
