Ventura Flame¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 71| BF| CD

9/2

C&D winner. Latest win at Beverley in April. Good second of 10 in handicap at this C&D (heavy, 11/4) 11 days ago, well positioned. Likely to be in the thick of things once again.

Form: 691432

(7)

Marvel^p¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: P Mulrennan| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 71

4/1

Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D (heavy) 11 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Now 0-13 and though more than capable of picking up a race, he'd be of greater interest back at 6f.

Form: 334-225

(3)

Afandem^p¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 70| CD

9/2

C&D winner. Nineteen runs since last win in 2019. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (5.9f, heavy, 8/1) 11 days ago. Should make his presence felt.

Form: 54-2574

(4)

Good Luck Fox¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: K Stott| T: P T Midgley| OR: 68| D

2/1

7/2, won 9-runner handicap at Thirsk (5f, heavy) 13 days ago, just holding on. Conditions clearly no issue and he should give another good account.

Form: 0/5-3341

(5)

Ey Up Its Mick^b⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 68

15/2

5/2, fourth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (6f, heavy) 7 days ago. Remains above last winning mark and likely to find one or two too good once more.

Form: 435-544

(6)

Sharrabang¹⁰⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-2| J: Faye McManoman⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 51| C

11/1

Two wins from 5 runs this year. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 10/3). Off 108 days, but possibilities back down in trip, returned to the scene of his sole previous turf success.

Form: 4-18714

Forecasts

Good Luck Fox (2/1), Marvel (4/1), Afandem (9/2), Ventura Flame (9/2), Ey Up Its Mick (15/2), Quanah (10/1), Sharrabang (11/1)

The filly VENTURA FLAME went close off this mark here last time (form figures at this course read 212) and another bold show is on the cards. She gets the nod ahead of recent Thirsk scorer Good Luck Fox, who remains on an attractive mark despite going up 5 lb for that narrow success. Cases can also be made for Sharrabang and Quanah, the latter having run well at Ripon on Thursday.
