Mokaman³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 64| CD

3/1

C&D winner who returned to form when runner-up back here in April. Not in same form when ninth of 14 in handicap at Beverley (5f) 32 days ago but return to this venue rates a likely plus.

Form: 840-629

Harswell Prince^p⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: L Bailey| OR: 64| D

6/1

Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (5f, soft) 8 days ago, struggling against some less exposed rivals. This looks more suitable with the assessor slowly relinquishing his grip.

Form: 323-635

Emirati Dirham^v¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 63

3/1

Visored for 1st time, better than bare result when seventh of 16 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to soft) 18 days ago, having been poorly drawn. Interesting from career-low mark.

Form: 3-67247

Amazing Anna⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Garritty| T: M Walford| OR: 62

15/2

11/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Ripon (6f, soft) 8 days ago. Return to the minimum trip rates a plus on that evidence but others arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 4247-56

Marta Boy^t,v³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Darragh Keenan| T: P D Evans| OR: 61| D

14/1

Latest win at Lingfield in April. 3/1, below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 37 days ago. Not taken lightly back at 5f.

Better By Far^t1,v1¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: S R Bowring| OR: 55

50/1

1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Southwell in March. Ninth of 12 in handicap at Ripon (6f, heavy) 19 days ago. Visor/tongue tie fitted but best efforts have come on all weather.

Form: 785-199

Fossos^p,t³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 49

4/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Third of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm, 10/1) 39 days ago, having been gelded. May do better again with tat run under his belt.

Form: 0600-3

Triple Jaye¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: P Mathers| T: T D Easterby| OR: 45

9/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, eighth of 16 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Likely to improve.

Form: 3788

Go Go Luna^p¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Cam Hardie| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 45

80/1

25/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft) 10 days ago. Already had plenty of chances from basement marks and vulnerable to anything progressive.

Form: 0-05837

Forecasts

Mokaman (3/1), Emirati Dirham (3/1), Fossos (4/1), Harswell Prince (6/1), Amazing Anna (15/2), Triple Jaye (9/1), French Red (12/1), Marta Boy (14/1), Better By Far (50/1), Go Go Luna (80/1)

An open-looking sprint handicap with the vote in favour of EMIRATI DIRHAM. He ran well when runner-up in a C&D handicap in April and shaped better than the bare result when midfield in a Redcar handicap 18 days ago. Eased in the weights, he's fancied to go well, with Fossos and Mokaman heading up the dangers.
