Major Snugfit^t,v⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 10-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: R Menzies| OR: 59

7/2

Visor on for 1st time in this code, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good to firm, 13/2) 7 days ago, just holding on. Should give it a good shot under a penalty.

Contrebasse^v¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 60

11/4

Sixteen runs since last win in 2019. 13/2, sixth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (16.1f, good) 18 days ago. Eased in class here and has to be taken very seriously off a career-low mark.

Form: 526466

(4)

Thorntoun Care^p¹²

Age: 10| Weight: 9-8| J: Gemma Tutty⁽³⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 54

20/1

Eighteen runs since last win in 2019. 16/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, good to firm) 12 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip and should make his presence felt.

Form: 629725

Visitant^p¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Louis Steward| T: D Thompson| OR: 50

10/1

Respectable eighth of 16 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, firm, 14/1) 17 days ago, very slowly away. Cheekpieces back on. Likely to find a few too good once more.

Form: 668598

(7)

Desert Quest^p²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Cam Hardie| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 57| D

5/2

4/1, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Hamilton (12.1f, good) 28 days ago, staying on well. Clearly on the up and merits respect, for all that a 4 lb rise demands a new personal best.

Form: 057211

Pound Off You¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Joanna Mason⁽³⁾| T: G Boanas| OR: 46

12/1

Sixth of 8 in novice hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft, 28/1) on NH debut 14 days ago. Poor effort on latest start in this sphere and she's essentially opposable.

Form: 37-6270

(6)

O'Reilly's Pass¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 45

25/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Eighth of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Newcastle (12.4f) 11 days ago. Others more persuasive from a win point of view.

Form: 430408

Vivid Luminosity¹²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Sean Kirrane⁽⁵⁾| T: A West| OR: 45

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. 300/1, last of 9 in minor event at Salisbury (9.9f, soft). Off 124 days. Significantly up in trip for this handicap debut and huge step forward required.

Form: 809

(10)

Jan De Heem^b³³

Age: 11| Weight: 9-0| J: Amie Waugh⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 45| CD

80/1

C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2019. 100/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Beverley (16.2f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Hopes pinned on refitting of blinkers sparking a revival.

Form: 06-9790

(9)

Hazalou²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 51

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in handicap (17/2) at Musselburgh (9f, good) 20 days ago. Significantly up in trip and he's another who needs to raise his game a couple of notches.

Form: 9-707

Forecasts

Desert Quest (5/2), Contrebasse (11/4), Major Snugfit (7/2), Visitant (10/1), Pound Off You (12/1), Vivid Luminosity (14/1), Thorntoun Care (20/1), O'Reilly's Pass (25/1), Hazalou (25/1), Jan De Heem (80/1)

CONTREBASSE needs to bounce back following a below-par display at Thirsk, but there's a good chance that he'll do just that now eased in grade off a career-low mark. The 6-y-o gets the nod ahead of Major Snugfit, who was tenacious from the front when narrowly prevailing at Catterick last week. The hat-trick seeking Desert Quest also enters calculations, while Thorntoun Care is not without hope.
