Rebel At Dawn^p¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Kingscote| T: K R Burke| OR: 91| D

5/2

Kept busy as a juvenile, winning once from 9 starts and resumed progress this term, doubling career tally in refitted cheekpieces at Nottingham (5f) 10 days ago. No reason why he won't go well again.

Form: 57-3731

Eye Of Heaven⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 84| D

18/1

Well backed to make a winning debut at Newmarket (5f) 12 months ago but didn't kick on as expected thereafter. Missed break when last of 7 on return at Bath (5f) last week and this should reveal more.

Form: 1962-7

Virginia Plane²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 77| D

11/8

Typically showed plenty of dash to dead-heat at Lingfield (5f) last month. May have had speed blunted to an extent when third at Goodwood (5f, soft) since and return to quicker conditions now a plus.

Form: 241-213

Havagomecca¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 75| D

7/2

Improving filly who scored on return at Newcastle and progressed further to double career tally in a Haydock handicap (5f, soft) last month. That may well not prove her limit.

Form: 3-1831

Lost My Sock^t1¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: J Fanning| T: T D Easterby| OR: 75

7/1

Maiden who has proved consistent, producing best effort to date when runner-up in a Carlisle handicap (5f) in May, collared last ½f. Won't be long in getting off the mark on that evidence

Form: 343-342

Forecasts

Virginia Plane (11/8), Rebel At Dawn (5/2), Havagomecca (7/2), Lost My Sock (7/1), Eye Of Heaven (18/1)

A quintet to view positively, with the vote going to VIRGINIA PLANE, who looks all speed and she should be a tough nut to crack from stall 2. Havagomecca arrives on the up and is second choice.
