5/2

12/1, 18 lengths eighth of 11 to Light Refrain in listed race at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy) 8 days ago. That was her first start for 6 months and better showing expected now.

Restless Endeavour¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 79| D

10/3

2 wins from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Lingfield in March. 7/1, good second of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good) 15 days ago, slowly away. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 184-112

Fashion Advice^p⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Billy Garritty⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 77| BF

9/2

Latest win at Musselburgh in April. 9/4, creditable third of 6 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good to soft) 6 days ago. No surprise to see him give another good account.

Credible²⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: P Mathers| T: R A Fahey| OR: 79| D

4/1

Lightly-raced winner. 14/1, below form eighth of 15 in nursery at Doncaster (6.5f) in Septmber, beaten some way out. However, she remains low-mileage ahead of return and yard in good form.

Form: 2218-

Rumaythah¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 79| D

4/1

Thrice-raced winner. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Salisbury (7f, good, 9/2) 14 days ago. Return to 6f rates a likely plus on that evidence.

Form: 1-34

Forecasts

Zim Baby (5/2), Gale Force Maya (5/2), Restless Endeavour (10/3), Rumaythah (4/1), Credible (4/1), Fashion Advice (9/2), Lady Nectar (7/1), Brazen Belle (8/1), Lead Story (10/1)

A competitive fillies event with the vote in favour of BRAZEN BELLE. She arrives on the back of what was probably a career-best display when successful at Wolverhampton 18 days ago and that may not prove her limit (dam, a real course specialist, progressed well with age). Lady Nectar and Restless Endeavour are a couple of the dangers.
