Off time: 17:27 | Winning time: 2m 12.87s

(7)

Prince Of Harts²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr Patrick Millman| T: B R Millman| OR: 82

9/2

Lightly raced in recent seasons but he's below his last winning mark and has shown he retains plenty of ability when reaching the frame on both outings this year.

Form: 21/86-34

(5)

Andaleep^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: B Roberts⁽⁵⁾| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 80| CD

4/1

Added to his fine C&D record when back to form out of the blue to see off 7 rivals 14 days ago. Likely to remain competitive after a 4 lb rise.

Form: 63-0051

(1)

Arctic Emperor²³

Age: 3| Weight: 10-11| J: Miss Brodie Hampson| T: A Watson| OR: 87

7/2

Big improver in handicaps, posting a useful effort when comfortably completing a hat-trick in 6-runner Brighton handicap (good) 23 days ago. First outing beyond 1m. 5 lb rise may not stop him.

Form: 5-22111

(3)

Bad Company²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: Miss Serena Brotherton| T: J R Boyle| OR: 76| D

11/4

Won 5 in a row last autumn but, though running creditably, the handicapper has held the upper hand so far in 2021.

Form: 11-2454

(2)

Diffident Spirit²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Mr Lewis Kent⁽⁵⁾| T: T Kent| OR: 81

9/1

Wasted no time shrugging off a disappointing run on handicap debut when coming through to score by 4½ lengths at Newbury (1m, good to soft) 4 weeks ago. Raised 7 lb but he's very much unexposed.

Form: 45-161

(4)

Rainbow Jet²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Miss Gina Andrews| T: J Mackie| OR: 72| D

6/1

Shed her maiden tag in good style when bagging a heavy-ground Haydock handicap (10.4f) in May. Performed with credit when third at Windsor next time but latest York effort wasn't one of her best.

Form: 345-130

(6)

Kaloor^t¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-3| J: Minty Bloss⁽⁷⁾| T: C Banham| OR: 71

50/1

Yet to beat a rival this term, so hard to make any sort of case for.

Form: 02-7709

Forecasts

Bad Company (11/4), Arctic Emperor (7/2), Andaleep (4/1), Prince Of Harts (9/2), Rainbow Jet (6/1), Diffident Spirit (9/1), Kaloor (50/1)

Progressive 3-y-os ARCTIC EMPEROR and Diffident Spirit may dominate here, with a narrow preference for the former as he bids to make if 4 in a row. Course specialist Andaleep may fare best of the older brigade.
