Super Julius^p³³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 52| CD

7/1

C&D winner but it's now sixteen runs since last win in 2019. 12/1, only sixth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 33 days ago so others are preferred.

Form: 270466

Hyba¹⁰⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Ray Dawson⁽³⁾| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 52

40/1

33/1, last of 6 in maiden at Southwell (5f) 109 days ago. Makes handicap debut and needs others to falter.

Form: 5/46

Mo Henry^v⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Keatley| OR: 52| CD

11/4

Arrives on a long losing run but posted good second of 15 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good to firm, 10/1) 5 days ago, no match for winner. C&D winner too so veteran merits serious consideration.

Form: 550352

(8)

Blackcurrent^b³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A D Brown| OR: 51| D

7/1

Scored at Southwell in February but he's a temperamental sort and was below-form third there 34 days ago. Others are more persuasive.

Form: 313573

(2)

King Robert^p²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: B A Curtis| T: C Wallis| OR: 51| C| D

6/1

Course winner but only eighth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 16/1) 25 days ago. Claims on best form, although it's twenty five runs since last win in 2019.

Form: 06-5398

(4)

Back From Dubai^v⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: S R Bowring| OR: 50

11/2

Modest maiden who arrives under something of a cloud. Visor back on with work to do.

Form: 8-87896

(1)

Hard Solution^v¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 48| CD

11/1

C&D winner last summer but yet to hit top form in 2021. Visor back on and needs to get back on track.

Form: 87-0706

(5)

Captain Ryan⁷⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 9-3| J: K Shoemark| T: G Deacon| OR: 48| CD

16/1

4-time C&D winner who recorded good third of 10 in minor event over C&D 77 days ago. Veteran can give another good account.

Form: 736-623

(7)

Stone Princess²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Russell⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 47

125/1

Has yet to better poor form, 100/1 when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 25 days ago. Lots to find on her tapeta debut.

Form: 559/00-0

(3)

Raabeh⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 47

5/1

Modest maiden at best, though he ran better than for a while when third of 8 in claimer over C&D 6 days ago. Good claims on that form but he needs to back it up.

Form: 589-453

Non-Runners

Blue Venture²³¹

Weight: 9-5| Age: 4

T: A W Carroll J: Tom Marquand

Forecasts

Mo Henry (11/4), Raabeh (5/1), Back From Dubai (11/2), King Robert (6/1), Blackcurrent (7/1), Super Julius (7/1), Blue Venture (8/1), Hard Solution (11/1), Captain Ryan (16/1), Hyba (40/1), Stone Princess (125/1)

Veteran duo MO HENRY and Captain Ryan arrive in good order and can fight this out with narrow preference going to Adrian Keatley's 9-y-o. Raabeh appeals as the pick of the remainder and is weighted to have a big say if backing his recent C&D third up.
