5/1

3 wins from 17 runs this year. 4/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 19 days ago, kicking on entering straight and always holding on. 5 lb rise makes it tough.

11/2

Not in same form as previously when fifth of 9 in handicap (10/1) at Newcastle (5f) back in January. First run for yard after leaving Karen McLintock. Has to be taken seriously if ready to roll.

Form: 69091-5

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Callum Shepherd| T: L Carter| OR: 54

40/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2019. 80/1, ran no sort of race when ninth of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, AW). Off 137 days. Not easy to make a case for.

Starchant^p⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-2| J: George Rooke⁽⁵⁾| T: J J Bridger| OR: 45

33/1

Remains a poor maiden after 30 Flat runs. Eighth of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, AW, 150/1) 6 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Equally Fast (7/2), Kath's Lustre (9/2), A Go Go (5/1), Everkyllachy (11/2), Roundabout Magic (6/1), Broughtons Flare (7/1), Big Time Maybe (14/1), Mercers (18/1), Starchant (33/1), Fairy Fast (40/1)

Several in with chances but preference is for ROUNDABOUT MAGIC, who shaped as if still in good form when fifth at Wolverhampton 5 weeks ago and can gain his eighth C&D victory back on his last winning mark. Everkyllachy rates the main threat if she's ready to roll on her first start for George Boughey, with A Go Go also feared given she's currently in the form of her life.
