8/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March. 6/1, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap back at that venue (8.6f) 7 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. No surprise to see another good showing.

Engles Rock³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: P Mulrennan| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 64

11/2

Fourteen runs since sole win at Listowel (7f) in 2019. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good, 17/2) 33 days ago, hanging left over 1f out and never a threat. Still, she's on a workable mark.

Form: 7205-26

Royal Countess¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: P Mathers| T: R M Smith| OR: 54| CD

3/1

C&D winner. 6/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm) 14 days ago, running on. Return to this trip a plus and another holding claims.

Form: 1204-34

Dr T J Eckleburg¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 64

13/8

13/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at Haydock (10.4f, heavy) 12 days ago, conditions possibly against him. Had previously shaped well when second at Ripon (9.7f) and one to consider down in class.

Form: 57-4425

Lord Admirable¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 62

18/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in handicap at Leicester (10f, soft, 66/1) 16 days ago. This should reveal more and worth a check in the betting for positive vibes.

One Last Hug^p²³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: K Stott| T: J S Goldie| OR: 48| CD

14/1

C&D winner. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, heavy, 33/1). Off 7 months. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive.

Aletoile²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: B A Curtis| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 60

18/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 12 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good to soft, 11/1) 21 days ago, folding tamely. Needs to bounce back to play a part here.

Form: 4-7350

Magic Gem^p1¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: Cam Hardie| T: D H Brown| OR: 53

12/1

Garswood gelding. Good fifth of 16 in handicap (40/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and he may yet have a little more to offer at this sort of level.

Form: 0-755

Oot Ma Way⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-0| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 45

22/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, first run since leaving Katie Scott when tenth of 13 in minor event at Newcastle (7.1f) 78 days ago. Significantly up in trip for handicap bow and the betting may guide.

Forecasts

Dr T J Eckleburg (13/8), Royal Countess (3/1), Engles Rock (11/2), International Law (8/1), Magic Gem (12/1), Renbawi (12/1), One Last Hug (14/1), Aletoile (18/1), Lord Admirable (18/1), Oot Ma Way (22/1)

DR T J ECKLEBURG was below his best at Haydock on his most recent start but he had excuses on account of the heavy ground and, having run well when runner-up at Ripon previously, he gets the narrow vote to get back on the up. Royal Countess and low-mileage Magic Gem head up the dangers.
