12/1, good second of 6 in handicap at Salisbury (8f, good) 23 days ago, sticking to task. 2-3 on the AW and she's every inch a leading contender.

Raise The Roof¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: N Callan| T: J Tate| OR: 82

Lightly-raced winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 9/2) 13 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 41135

Degree²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 81| BF

9/2

Lightly-raced filly. Winner at Wolverhampton in May. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm, 3/1) 20 days ago. Remains with potential and she has to be feared.

Form: 3-134

(4)

Peintre D'etoiles²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Egan| T: E Walker| OR: 76

9/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 10 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, good, 3/1) 22 days ago. Improvement needed now pitched into a handicap, but opening mark looks fair and she's in good hands.

Form: 822

(8)

Hala Joud^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Robert Tart| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 76

25/1

Winner at Lingfield in June. 14/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 19 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Camerata²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: W Buick| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 75| C

5/1

Thrice-raced winner. Won 9-runner minor event (13/8) at this course (7f) 23 days ago, just holding on. More on her plate now making the switch to handicap company, but further progress is possible.

Form: 341

(3)

Spirit Of The Bay¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox| OR: 74| CD

3/1

C&D winner. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (11/4) at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 15 days ago. 6 lb rise tolerable and she has to enter calculations.

Form: 37-6811

(5)

Alezan¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 63| D

20/1

Forecasts

Spirit Of The Bay (3/1), Zwelela (9/2), Raise The Roof (9/2), Degree (9/2), Camerata (5/1), Peintre D'etoiles (9/1), Sunset Memory (14/1), Alezan (20/1), Hala Joud (25/1)

The vote in this competitive handicap goes to SPIRIT OF THE BAY, who is bidding for the hat-trick following victories over this C&D and at Chepstow. She's gone up a total of 11 lb for that brace, but there could be more to come from this filly. Zwelela is proving consistent and is next on the list ahead of Degree, while handicap debutantes Peintre d'Etoiles and Camerata are others to consider.
