8/1

2 wins from 5 runs this year but (13/8) only sixth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good to firm) 39 days ago. 3-time C&D winner though so could easily bounce back.

Form: 6-14316

10/3

Winless since the restart but he arrives in good form, fading only late when sixth of 14 in handicap (13/2) at Newcastle (5f) 9 days ago. On a good mark so most interesting on this sharper track.

7/1

Back on song when fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 6 days ago. Not ruled out off handy mark.

Form: 410-504

Amazing Alba⁶^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: D Nolan| T: A C Whillans| OR: 60| CD

3/1

Arrives on a hat-trick after back-to-back C&D wins, latest in good style by 2l only 6 days ago. Carries 5 lb penalty but she holds solid claims.

5/1

5-time C&D winner but it's now twenty runs since his last win in 2018. 28/1, only ninth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 9 days ago so others appeal more.

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mathers| T: W G Harrison| OR: 64| D

20/1

Seventeen runs since last win in 2017. 50/1, first run since leaving John Gallagher when modest seventh of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (6f) 11 days ago. Blinkers on now with plenty to prove.

Corton Lass⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-5| J: Jamie Gormley| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 45

100/1

Ungenuine type who remains a maiden after 28 runs. Hooded when below-form seventh here last time so easily opposed from 3 lb out of the handicap.

Form: 35-6277

Forecasts

Amazing Alba (3/1), Dapper Man (10/3), Lyons Lane (4/1), Royal Brave (5/1), Economic Crisis (11/2), Choosey (7/1), Longroom (8/1), Northern Society (11/1), Astrophysics (14/1), Major Pusey (20/1), Corton Lass (100/1), Laoise (100/1)

Lots with chances here but at the likely odds it's well worth siding with DAPPER MAN who has dropped to a winning mark and should find this sharp 5f very much in his favour after not quite getting home over Newcastle's stiffer track last time. Hat-trick seeking Amazing Alba is greatly feared but she is priced up accordingly, while Lyons Lane and Economic Crisis are much respected too.
