3/1

Thrice-raced gelding on Flat. 18/1, second of 14 in maiden at this C&D 23 days ago, no match for winner. On the upgrade recently, so hard to rule out.

25/1

Fairly useful gelding. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. 16/1, bit below form eighth of 14 in maiden at this course (10.7f) 54 days ago. Others are more appealing.

(6)

Lady Georgie¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Siobhan Rutledge⁽⁷⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 75

16/1

Fair filly. Respectable third of 13 in maiden at this course (10.7f, 10/1) 12 days ago. Could grab a place but looks vulnerable for win purposes.

DANCES WITH STARS still looked green when runner-up at this course 12 days ago and, with further improvement on the cards, he's capable of opening his account at the third time of asking. Quamino shaped well from a long way back on his Flat debut and has scope for better based on his jumps form, so he's the main danger ahead of S'All Good Man.
