Three Card Trick²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Marco Ghiani⁽³⁾| T: M Blake| OR: 52

6/1

One win from 23 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2018. 11/2, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 22 days ago, slowly away. Merits consideration.

Form: 24-7443

Bbob Alula^t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carson| T: W G M Turner| OR: 51| D

7/1

Untrustworthy individual. One win from 21 Flat runs. 15/2, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 17 days ago. Each-way chance if able to back that up here.

Form: 6508-54

(8)

Porterinthejungle²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Darragh Keenan| T: R Brisland| OR: 51

12/1

Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. Below form fifth of 9 in handicap (15/2) at this course (8f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Looks vulnerable once more.

Form: 9-33555

Eastern Star¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Mollie Phillips⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 50

11/1

Ungenuine type. One win from 23 Flat runs. Improved on recent efforts to win 6-runner seller (8/1) at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago. More needed back in handicap company.

Form: 930591

Purbeck Hills^b²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: George Buckell⁽³⁾| T: J Gallagher| OR: 49| CD

8/1

Improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap (13/2) at this course (6f, good to soft) 29 days ago, slowly away. 3 lb rise fair enough and should give another good account.

Form: 670-801

(6)

Sovereign State³²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: A G Newcombe| OR: 48

11/1

Respectable fourth of 16 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, soft, 28/1) 32 days ago. Up in trip and others are more persuasive from a win point of view.

Form: 78/320-4

(4)

Soaring Spirits^b²⁹

Age: 11| Weight: 9-1| J: Sophie Ralston⁽⁵⁾| T: D K Ivory| OR: 45| CD

20/1

C&D winner. Eighteen runs since last win in 2018. 33/1, fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 29 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. This veteran is probably worth taking on.

Form: 00/0-095

(9)

Jaffathegaffa^v¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: G & J Moore| OR: 52

11/8

First run since leaving Adam West when ninth of 12 in handicap (7/2) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Visor back on and chance off this reduced mark if he puts his best foot forward.

Form: 44-8749

(2)

Herecomesarchie^h1¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: L Morris| T: M Murphy| OR: 48

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 300/1, twelfth of 14 in maiden at Leicester (8.2f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Hooded for 1st time and big step forward needed now pitched into a handicap.

Form: 970

(3)

Mr Moneypenny¹³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: David Egan| T: M J Attwater| OR: 45

50/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 50/1). Off 136 days and looks set for another struggle.

Form: 797-08

Forecasts

Jaffathegaffa (11/8), Three Card Trick (6/1), Bbob Alula (7/1), Purbeck Hills (8/1), Eastern Star (11/1), Sovereign State (11/1), Porterinthejungle (12/1), Soaring Spirits (20/1), Herecomesarchie (33/1), Mr Moneypenny (50/1)

Another chance is given to JAFFATHEGAFFA, who failed to measure up to market expectations on debut for Gary Moore at Windsor but he's of interest back here with the visor refitted. Indeed, he wasn't beaten far over C&D off a 3 lb higher mark on penultimate start when visored for the first time. Purbeck Hills hit the target at this course last month and is feared most ahead of Three Card Trick.
