(5)

Endowed¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Theodore Ladd⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 85| D

7/2

Lightly raced for this stable and has been knocking on the door lately, finding only one too good in testing conditions at Windsor 18 days ago. Big claims back down in grade.

Form: 65-6532

(8)

Juan Les Pins⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Spencer| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 85| D

14/1

Useful AW performer who has yet to fully convince on turf. Others make more appeal.

Form: 2125-69

(9)

Savalas^p¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: G A Harker| OR: 85

12/1

Just 1 lb higher than last winning mark (for Robert Cowell) and shaped as if still in form when fourth at Redcar 18 days ago. Well-run race back up in trip could suit.

Form: 5219-34

(12)

Blackheath^t³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: M Dods| OR: 83| D

4/1

Largely acquitted himself well for Ed Walker in 2020 and more encouragement (poorly placed) for this yard when sixth over C&D last month. Warrants respect from sliding mark.

Form: 8844-06

(7)

Big Les¹⁹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 81| D

8/1

Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 16/1), nearest finish. Off 6 months. Likely to need this first run back, but solid claims if he's tuned up.

Form: 913944-

(11)

Ghathanfar⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 80| D

6/1

Proved better than ever back on turf when resuming winning ways at Redcar (6f) in April and has filled the runner-up spot on both subsequent outings. Should be thereabouts once more.

Form: 462122

(3)

Treble Treble⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 79| D

11/2

Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (7/1) at Newcastle in April, then a narrow fifth at Wetherby 40 days ago, finishing well after another tardy start. Claims if he can break efficiently.

Form: 0090-15

(1)

Spanish Angel²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: A Mullen| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 77

25/1

Creditable fourth of 9 in 6f Newcastle handicap starting out for this yard on return in April. However, has gone backwards from that subsequently.

Form: 644-470

(10)

Turanga Leela^b⁷⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: P Hanagan| T: J Mackie| OR: 76| D

28/1

Highly consistent on AW earlier this year but mark sums him up and might strip fitter for this first run in 79 days.

Form: 0-13232

(13)

Athollblair Boy²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Gaia Boni⁽⁷⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 75| C| D

16/1

Built on a series of good efforts to come out on top in 8-runner handicap at Newcastle in April but failed to back it up at Newmarket 3 weeks ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 452416

(4)

Jungle Speed^t³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: I Furtado| OR: 74| D

11/1

First run since leaving David Loughnane when 7/1, won 13-runner handicap at Newcastle (6f) 35 days ago, running on. Remains well treated on old form after a 5-lb rise, so worth considering.

Form: 48654-1

(6)

Giogiobbo^p⁸⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 8-3| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 67| D

33/1

Long-standing maiden who was below form when last seen at Southwell 80 days ago. Hard to make a solid case for.

Form: 655648

Forecasts

Endowed (7/2), Blackheath (4/1), Treble Treble (11/2), Ghathanfar (6/1), Big Les (8/1), Jungle Speed (11/1), Savalas (12/1), Juan Les Pins (14/1), Athollblair Boy (16/1), The Bell Conductor (20/1), Spanish Angel (25/1), Turanga Leela (28/1), Giogiobbo (33/1)

ENDOWED is well treated, in good form and drops back in grade after a respectable second at Windsor, so he takes marginal preference in an open race. Jungle Speed is a danger having made a winning start for Ivan Furtado, while Blackheath can get involved if everything drops right.
