Enigmatic⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-4| J: Harry Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: J Parr| OR: 86| D

7/2

Successful twice at around 1m last year and, on the back of his reappearance spin he's run with credit all 3 starts since, not seen to best effect when fifth at Nottingham latest. Can go well again.

Form: 91-8335

Lyndon B^p²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J L Flint| OR: 82| CD

16/1

Has showed a bit more than previously for this yard of late, 1.5 lengths fifth of 7 in a 1m Bath handicap last month. Handicapper is relinquishing his grip but others arrive with stronger claims.

Form: 060-975

Dogged²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: R L Moore| T: D R C Elsworth| OR: 80| D

9/4

Low-mileage 4-y-o who ran up to best when 2 lengths third of 10 in a C&D handicap in June. Latest Newmarket effort a shade disappointing but certainly not one to write off.

Form: 385-536

Delicate Kiss^b⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J J Bridger| OR: 79| CD

6/1

Enjoyed a productive 2020, winning 4 times including over C&D. Exploits have been mixed so far this campaign, last of 7 over 1m at Lingfield 9 days ago. Likely type to bounce back.

Form: 16-9867

Light Up Our Stars¹²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: P J Dobbs| T: A W Carroll| OR: 71| D

33/1

Fair gelding. who ran well under a change of tactics when only reeled in late on in a Lingfield claimer (7f) in March. Absent since but he does at least arrive on last winning mark.

Form: 45-7693

Coul Kat²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B R Millman| OR: 78| CD

11/4

Proved better than ever when landing an 11-runner C&D handicap in May. Subsequent Chester effort in June was some way below that level but versatile as regards ground and bounce back not ruled out.

Form: 21-2415

(7)

Mumtaaz²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Tom Marquand| T: C Hills| OR: 69| D

10/1

Winner at Bath (1m) in April prior to pair of placed efforts in 1m handicaps. Pair of subsequent efforts have been underwhelming though and he needs to step up again to figure.

Form: 5-13379

Forecasts

Dogged (9/4), Coul Kat (11/4), Enigmatic (7/2), Delicate Kiss (6/1), Mumtaaz (10/1), Lyndon B (16/1), Light Up Our Stars (33/1)

COUL KAT needs to dispel a lesser effort on his latest outing at Chester in June, yet Rod Millman's charge had previously looked better than ever when registering success over C&D in May and he gets the nod to bounce back under Oisin Murphy. Dogged is feared on his penultimate C&D third, whilst Enigmatic is another who can get in the shake-up.
