Beepeecee^b²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr J Reddington⁽⁵⁾| T: T Gallagher| OR: 55| CD

33/1

Course winner. 100/1, last of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, soft) 22 days ago. Hard to fancy.

Form: 989-700

(8)

Irish Eileen^t²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Miss Serena Brotherton| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 52

11/2

Bounced back to form when fourth of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to firm) 22 days ago, never nearer. Step up in trip looks a good move and not taken lightly on tapeta debut.

Form: 80-6584

(11)

He's Our Star²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-9| J: Miss S L Bowen⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 50

13/2

Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Brighton (8f, good) 21 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 545025

(5)

Alketios²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-9| J: Miss Molly Landau⁽⁷⁾| T: C Gordon| OR: 50

100/1

Twenty one runs since last win in 2015. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Brighton (11.9f, good to soft, 66/1) 28 days ago. Down in trip. Work to do on tapeta debut.

Form: 4476/07

Purple Paddy⁹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Mr P Thomas⁽⁵⁾| T: J C Fox| OR: 49

18/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2019. 14/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at this C&D. Off 91 days. Others more appealing.

Form: 82863-8

(4)

Celtic Force¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-7| J: Miss Jessica Llewellyn⁽⁵⁾| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 48

15/2

100/1, eighth of 14 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good) 21 days ago. Makes limited appeal on tapeta debut.

Form: 27086/8

Mac Mccarthy²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Miss Emily Bullock⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 47| CD

4/1

C&D winner who got back on track when third of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good to firm, 12/1) 20 days ago. Back on last winning mark and is one for the shortlist.

Form: 0-13883

(10)

Ghostly^b⁶^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 10-3| J: Miss Becky Smith| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 47| CD

7/4

Found improvement, in first-time blinkers, when opening account in 11-runner handicap at this course (9.5f) 6 days ago, keeping on well. 6 lb penalty to carry now but another bold bid anticipated.

Form: 033201

66/1

22/1, twelfth of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 20 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Richard Fahey. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 7-66060

(13)

Hugosthere^p⁸⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-1| J: Miss Megan Jordan⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 51

33/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 13 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 33/1) 85 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Others preferred.

Form: 90809

Forecasts

Ghostly (7/4), Mac Mccarthy (4/1), Irish Eileen (11/2), He's Our Star (13/2), Celtic Force (15/2), Pour La Victoire (14/1), Purple Paddy (18/1), Hugosthere (33/1), Beepeecee (33/1), Lmntrix (40/1), Hugsy (66/1), Meryems Way (66/1), Alketios (100/1)

GHOSTLY was galvanized by the change of headgear when scoring here last week and still looks fairly treated, despite a 6 lb penalty. He can follow up. Irish Eileen and Mac McCarthy are feared most.
