Shackabooah²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: D C Costello| T: S Dixon| OR: 57| D

7/2

13/2, didn't need to improve to win 12-runner handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Nudged up just 1 lb and likely to be firmly in the mix once more.

6/1

Course winner. Latest win here in June. 8/1, good second of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Return to this trip looks a good move and he's a big player off the same mark.

7/2

Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. Eighth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at this course (8f, good to firm) 35 days ago. May again find one or two too good.

6/1

Brazen Arrow⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: David Egan| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 57

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 100/1) 41 days ago. Big step forward needed if he's to play a part in the finish.

Form: 9-967

Racy Stacey^p⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 47

11/1

9/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 53 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Place possibilities.

Form: 088-736

Sherella⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: A J Farragher⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 45

66/1

Form: 40-0970

Priscilla's Wish³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Cieren Fallon| T: P J McBride| OR: 50

12/1

Winner at Lingfield in May. 22/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 35 days ago, eased down. Opposable on the back of that low-key display.

Form: 6-71497

Joli's Legacy⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: A G Newcombe| OR: 49

13/2

Ninth of 14 in handicap (20/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 56 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. No more than an each-way squeak.

Form: 503879

Miss Prancealot^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Hayley Turner| T: H Spiller| OR: 49

8/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 16 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm, 20/1) 15 days ago. Looks up against it.

Form: 905597

Arfinn Rose^b,e/s1⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: R Ffrench| T: S Dixon| OR: 45

100/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, good, 25/1) 62 days ago. Eyeshields on for 1st time. Yard saddles a far more appealing candidate in Shackabooah.

Forecasts

Bint Dandy (7/2), Shackabooah (7/2), Rockesbury (6/1), My Town Chicago (6/1), Joli's Legacy (13/2), Miss Prancealot (8/1), Racy Stacey (11/1), Priscilla's Wish (12/1), Aiguillette (12/1), Brazen Arrow (25/1), Sherella (66/1), Arfinn Rose (100/1)

The vote goes to ROCKESBURY, who put in good late work when going close off this mark over 6f here last week. On that evidence this step back up in trip will be very much in his favour. Shackabooah is the clear main danger following his Beverley success, for which he's been raised just 1 lb. Racy Stacey improved when third on her penultimate start at Redcar and she makes some each-way appeal.
