Miracle Eagle^v⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 57

11/1

9/1, fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good to soft) 46 days ago. Modest maiden on the Flat, creditable on last Flat run.

Edgar Allan Poe²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: S H James| T: Harvey Bastiman| OR: 55| D

15/2

14/1, creditable third of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good) 20 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Remains well treated on old form so capable of going well again.

Form: 882193

Renbawi¹⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 62

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden who was gambled on but failed to meet expectations when last of 7 in AW handicap (3/1) at Lingfield (12f) in March. Makes turf debut back from a break.

Form: 884-87

(4)

Intello Boy^p1²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 61

11/2

Fair form when placed at 2 yrs but little impact in 3 starts this year. Significantly back up in trip fitted with first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 327-006

(2)

Flower Power^p⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 9-3| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 48| BF| CD

13/2

C&D winner who seems to be building up to something, finishing a never-nearer fourth at Beverley (12.1f) last week. Merits consideration.

Form: 846424

(8)

Bigbadboy²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: K Stott| T: C A Mulhall| OR: 47

10/1

Ended a lengthy losing run at Nottingham in October. Shaped as if better for the run on return there in July and then had excuses over C&D last time. Not one to write off.

Form: 0/321-88

(3)

Coup De Gold²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Aled Beech⁽⁵⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 47| C

6/1

Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs, but shaped as if still in good form under an overly-aggressive ride when sixth of 14 over C&D 20 days ago.

Form: 4-43836

My Renaissance^p,t¹⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 9-1| J: Cam Hardie| T: S England| OR: 46| D

50/1

Visored for 1st time, creditable third of 13 in handicap chase (13/2) at Cartmel (17.3f, good) 17 days ago. Up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Modest on Flat, not knocked about on last run June 2020.

Form: 78039/9-

Myboymax¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Aiden Brookes⁽⁷⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 55

5/2

Moody sort who turned in his best effort of the season to win 12-runner handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, firm) 12 days ago. Still low mileage for new yard so could go well again.

Form: 870-431

(1)

The Mekon^p³⁵⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: R Menzies| OR: 45

33/1

Modest maiden who was well held at Hamilton when last seen nearly a year ago. Can only be watched unless the betting suggests otherwise.

Form: 98/0508-

Forecasts

Myboymax (5/2), Intello Boy (11/2), Coup De Gold (6/1), Flower Power (13/2), Edgar Allan Poe (15/2), Renbawi (8/1), Bigbadboy (10/1), Miracle Eagle (11/1), The Mekon (33/1), My Renaissance (50/1)

FLOWER POWER has been shaping up well from a reduced mark recently so she's put forward as the answer. Myboymax opened his account at Yarmouth 12 days ago and could go well again given he remains lightly-raced for his new yard, while Edgar Allan Poe is another to bear in mind having fared best of those ridden prominently on his latest start over C&D.
