Out Of Breath¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Oliver Stammers⁽³⁾| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 59| D

5/4

1 win from 3 runs this year. Improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap (10/1) at Catterick (12.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Leading claims.

Form: 780-691

(6)

Le Magnifique^p¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Garritty| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 58

13/2

Fair winner at 17f over hurdles. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 12 in handicap (22/1) at Thirsk (12f, good to firm) 13 days ago, well positioned.

Form: 3/8-4499

Inside Intel^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rhona Pindar⁽⁵⁾| T: L Bailey| OR: 58

12/1

12/1, 6½ lengths sixth of 9 to Out of Breath in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago, not ideally placed but looking awkward under pressure.

Form: 80-4656

(2)

Flower Power^p⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 8-12| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 50| D

17/2

33/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at Wetherby (14f, firm) 8 days ago, not necessarily shaping as though ready to take advantage of a mark that's fallen a long way.

Form: 5979-84

(4)

Framley Garth^p,t⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 8-11| J: Paula Muir| T: L Bailey| OR: 49| C| D

6/1

Unreliable type. 28/1, bit below form eighth of 15 in handicap at Wetherby (16f, firm) 8 days ago. Back down in trip. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces back on.

Form: 48-5448

(3)

One Last Hug^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 8-8| J: Ella McCain⁽³⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 46

9/1

One win from 21 Flat runs. Probably needed the run after 8 months off when sixth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Ayr (10f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Back up in trip. Can go well.

Form: 10900-6

(7)

Lalipour¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Laura Coughlan⁽⁵⁾| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 45

15/2

18/1, first run since leaving Mrs Denise Foster when eleventh of 14 in handicap at Catterick (15.9f, soft) 18 days ago. Down in trip. Plenty to prove at present.

Form: 0/190-00

Forecasts

Out Of Breath (5/4), Framley Garth (6/1), Le Magnifique (13/2), Lalipour (15/2), Flower Power (17/2), One Last Hug (9/1), Inside Intel (12/1)

OUT OF BREATH took advantage of a much-reduced mark at Catterick 12 days ago so is taken to defy a 3 lb rise and provide his red-hot yard with another winner. One Last Hug should come on for his return 2 weeks ago and is feared most.
