Atavique^v²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: R Havlin| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 71| CD

7/2

5/1, career best when winning 5-runner C&D handicap (good) under Robert Havlin 4 weeks ago. Ought to remain competitive after a 4 lb rise.

Form: 497321

First Dance¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: T P Tate| OR: 66| C| D

11/2

Has narrowly landed a pair of 1m handicaps here in recent weeks. Clear with a progressive rival last time and 5 lb rise unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Fine at this trip.

Form: 463511

Mille Miglia²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 70

11/4

Fair form. Placed in a couple of handicaps since stepped up to this trip. Low mileage so it's possible she could have more to give.

Form: 8-5432

Shaikhena⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Jim Crowley| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 70

6/1

Fair form when third over 1m at Newbury in June but comfortably held either side. Still early days for leading stable and interesting to see if there's any market confidence now handicapping.

Form: 737

(6)

Water Iris^p²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 69

9/1

Yet to win but largely consistent, including runner-up at Ayr 3 weeks ago when stepped up to 1¼m for the first time. Another who can't be discounted.

Form: 233832

New Heights¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: J G Portman| OR: 67| D

15/2

Back to winning ways in Newbury handicap over this trip a fortnight ago. Only nudged up 3 lb and another who could play a part.

Form: 035531

Thermal²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 60| D

9/1

Winner at Lingfield in May and added to her tally when seeing off 7 rivals over 1¼m at Epsom 29 days ago. Only nudged up 1 lb so every chance she'll be heavily involved again.

Form: 0-01941

Candlemas³³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: H Candy| OR: 59

33/1

Modest form at best in 3 outings at up to 11f last year and off for 11 months ahead of this handicap debut from what isn't an obviously generous mark.

Form: 994-

Forecasts

Mille Miglia (11/4), Atavique (7/2), First Dance (11/2), Shaikhena (6/1), New Heights (15/2), Water Iris (9/1), Thermal (9/1), Gert Lush (14/1), Rose Grey (28/1), Candlemas (33/1)

An open fillies' event. THERMAL is only 1 lb higher than when scoring at Epsom last month so perhaps she can follow up. First Dance, who goes in search of a course hat-trick, heads the dangers along with Atavique, another with a recent win to her name here, and the unexposed Mille Miglia.
