Big Boy Bobby⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: R Kingscote| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 75

10/3

Plenty of promise as a juvenile and left the impression he would strip fitter for his reappearance in a handicap at Salisbury a couple of months ago. Stable is going better now, so strong claims.

Form: 858-5

(2)

Genuflex⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 74

5/1

Fair colt. Eighth of 12 in handicap at Leicester (10f, soft, 17/2) 49 days ago. Not easy to make a case for.

Form: 5256-38

(8)

L'Operateur⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S W Kelly| T: Sir M Todd| OR: 74

9/1

Fairly useful gelding. Tenth of 11 in handicap (7/1) at Newmarket (10f, good to firm) 9 days ago. Needs to settle better if he's to make any sort of impact.

Form: 69-3260

(5)

Myristica^p1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: S De Sousa| T: T D Easterby| OR: 73| CD

4/1

Fair filly. C&D winner. Winner here in May. 5/1, last of 4 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has work to do.

Form: 46-9124

(6)

Natural Value²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D C Costello| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 75

33/1

Fair gelding. 14/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Up in trip. Vulnerable to more progressive types.

Form: 942-405

(3)

Out Of Reason⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: M Harley| T: A King| OR: 73

10/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Salisbury (12f, soft) 53 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 5425-0

(9)

Realist¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Shepherd| T: M L W Bell| OR: 75| D

7/2

Fairly useful gelding. 15/2, eighth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Back up in trip. Others make more appeal.

Form: 75-1258

(4)

Silver Gunn^h1³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Dylan Hogan⁽³⁾| T: M Botti| OR: 75

8/1

Winner at Yarmouth in April. Last of 5 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, good to firm, 2/1) 31 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Still one to be interested now back down in trip.

Form: 36-215

Forecasts

Big Boy Bobby (10/3), Realist (7/2), Myristica (4/1), Genuflex (5/1), Silver Gunn (8/1), L'Operateur (9/1), Out Of Reason (10/1), Smart Qibili (14/1), Natural Value (33/1)

BIG BOY BOBBY showed plenty of promise as a juvenile and his stable wasn't really firing when he made his reappearance at Salisbury a couple of months ago, so he's worth a chance to find improvement and land what seems quite a weak race on paper. Silver Gunn is worth forgiving his latest run and was an impressive winner at Yarmouth previously, so he's the clear threat ahead of L'Operateur.
