9/4

Two wins from 5 runs this year, the latest at Kempton in March. 9/1, good second of 16 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, soft) 32 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Expected to be bang there.

Soldier's Son^p³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: George Rooke⁽³⁾| T: H Candy| OR: 55

13/8

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Still, he was a respectable fifth of 11 in handicap (8/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 33 days ago and merits consideration here.

Form: 98-6445

Holbache³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Mollie Phillips⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 61

7/2

Hooded for 1st time, below form sixth of 10 in handicap (25/1) at Goodwood (5f, soft) 32 days ago. Dropped to a handy mark, but likely to find one or two too good all the same.

Form: 181-086

12/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. 25/1, third of 12 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 29 days ago, hampered. Likely to be in the thick of things.

Forecasts

Soldier's Son (13/8), Tyger Bay (9/4), Holbache (7/2), Shani (8/1), Spreadsheet (8/1), Navajo Dawn (12/1), Apollinaris (20/1), Perfect Symphony (25/1), Pusey Street (33/1), Noafence (80/1)

TYGER BAY has struck twice on the all-weather this year and proved that he's equally effective on turf when caught in the shadow of the post at Bath last month. A 3 lb rise for that near-miss is tolerable and he is taken to regain the winning thread. Though still a maiden following 17 attempts, Soldier's Son enters calculations off this reduced mark and Navajo Dawn should also be in the mix.
