13/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, again below form fifth of 11 in nursery at Lingfield (5f, good). Off 156 days. Mark falls a further 3 lb but needs to improve to get involved here.

Yaddle¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: A Kirby| T: D O'Meara| OR: 64

14/1

Matched the form she showed in a pair of Irish maidens for John M. Oxx when third of 9 in novice event at Wolverhampton last month. Went backwards from that 10 days later and now makes handicap bow.

Form: 57-34

Lucky Ava⁷^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: M Dwyer| T: C Allen| OR: 54| CD

11/8

Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (AW, 7/2) 7 days ago, quickening to lead entering final 100 yds. Carries penalty. Heading the right way now and sure to go well again.

Form: 8643-41

Mehmo^p¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: B A Curtis| T: M Appleby| OR: 55| BF

7/2

Not seen to best effect when sixth of 10 in handicap (9/4) at Kempton (6f) 11 days ago, looking awkward and held when saddle slipped inside final 1f. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 075-746

Nodsasgoodasawink¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M R Channon| OR: 50

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, failed to build on the previous promise when eighth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 10 days ago. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive.

Form: 748-58

Forecasts

Lucky Ava (11/8), Mehmo (7/2), Lothian (13/2), Nodsasgoodasawink (8/1), Alehandro (10/1), Rainbow's Pony (10/1), Yaddle (14/1), One Day (40/1)

LUCKY AVA got back on the up to win for the first time over C&D last week and she's a confident selection to follow up under a penalty in what looks a weak contest on paper. Mehmo looked awkward under pressure when sixth at Kempton 11 days ago but looks to be the selection's main danger, ahead of David O'Meara's handicap-debutante Yaddle.
