Music Seeker^t⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: C J MacRedmond⁽⁷⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 79| D

14/1

Returned in good order, twice finding only one too good in handicaps at Pontefract/York. Not so good both starts since, however, last of 9 in handicap over C&D (soft) 6 days ago.

Form: 46-2279

Delta's Royalty⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 82| BF

5/2

Landed the odds despite doing plenty wrong on debut at Kempton in December. Better form in defeat under a penalty in novice events at Newmarket/Kempton this summer. Headgear applied on handicap bow.

Form: 1-25

Howzer Black^h²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: S A Gray| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 75| CD

11/1

Ended losing run over C&D in June. Not seen to best effect all 3 starts since and his running style requires a true pace.

Form: 461480

Mark Of Gold²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 81| D

7/4

Has got better with each run, off the mark at the fourth attempt in handicap at Bath 3 weeks ago, well on top at the finish. Up 6 lb but very likely has more to offer still.

Form: 3421

Noble Peace^t²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Harry Bentley| T: S Pearce| OR: 73| D

22/1

Consistent on the AW this year but ran a stinker back on turf on penultimate start and others preferred.

Delph Crescent⁹^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 63| D

5/1

Strong in the betting and duly confirmed the promise of his previous run when making all in good style at Ripon last week. Looks well treated under a penalty so obvious claims.

Fair juvenile maiden for James Given. Definite improvement last 2 starts for this yard, left poorly placed on first attempt over this trip when fifth of 15 in handicap over C&D last month.

Forecasts

Mark Of Gold (7/4), Delta's Royalty (5/2), Delph Crescent (5/1), Sir Charles Punch (13/2), Pot Of Paint (13/2), Howzer Black (11/1), Deinonychus (12/1), Music Seeker (14/1), Noble Peace (22/1), Strawman (25/1)

DELPH CRESCENT confirmed the promise of his previous run when easily making all at Ripon 9 days ago and remains well treated under a penalty. He shades the vote over progressive 3-y-o Mark of Gold, who had a bit in hand when scoring at Bath. Sir Charles Punch is worth another go at this trip having been left with too much to do here last time and looks best of the others.
