C&D winner. Sixth of 7 in handicap at Ayr (8f, firm, 6/1) 22 days ago, slowly away. Others appeal more from a win point of view.

Tefnut²¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: J Fanning| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 64

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, tenth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) when last seen in December. Showed enough prior to that to suggest she'll be a big player here if taking to turf.

Form: 4250-

Sands Chorus³⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: Gemma Tutty⁽³⁾| T: K Tutty| OR: 63| D

9/4

Two wins from 3 runs this year. Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at Redcar (10f, good to firm, 4/1) 30 days ago by 3¾ lengths from Mac Ailey, responding well. Obvious claims.

Form: 400-131

Mac Ailey^e/s³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 58

11/2

One win from 26 Flat runs. 5/1, creditable 3¾ lengths second of 10 to Sands Chorus in handicap at Redcar (10f, good to firm) 30 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once more.

Form: 524-442

Clay Regazzoni^v1¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 56| BF| D

10/3

One win from 28 Flat runs. Seventeen runs since last win in 2019. 7/2, good third of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Should be in the mix here with a visor enlisted.

Reely Bonnie^h1¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 54

18/1

7/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip and hood on 1st time. Looks up against it.

Form: 40-0054

Mac Mccarthy¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 48| D

12/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. 20/1, bit below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 70-1388

Jungle Book^p1,t1¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-2| J: Nicola Currie| T: L Bailey| OR: 45

20/1

12/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Now 0-11 on turf and 0-17 overall, and hopes here pinned on first-time cheekpieces/tongue strap sparking improvement.

Form: 60-5787

Lucky Violet^h²²

Age: 9| Weight: 8-2| J: Cam Hardie| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 45| C

80/1

Course winner. Twenty nine runs since last win in 2018. Sixth of 13 in handicap (80/1) at Ayr (7.2f, firm) 22 days ago. Up in trip and no more than an each-way squeak.

Form: 986-076

Miss Plymwick²⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-2| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: A Crook| OR: 45

150/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in handicap (200/1) at Southwell (8.1f). Off 8 months and she is very hard to warm to.

Forecasts

Sands Chorus (9/4), Clay Regazzoni (10/3), Mac Ailey (11/2), Tefnut (11/2), Catch My Breath (7/1), Mac Mccarthy (12/1), Reely Bonnie (18/1), Jungle Book (20/1), Lucky Violet (80/1), Miss Plymwick (150/1)

Though disappointing at Newcastle when last seen in December, TEFNUT is well worth another chance now switched to turf off a reduced mark. Indeed, she showed enough on her first 3 starts to suggest that a race of this nature would be within her grasp. If the first-time visor helps stablemate Clay Regazzoni he will be a big threat, while Sands Chorus is 2-3 this season and should be thereabouts.
