Salley Gardens^p1,t³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Katie O'Farrell⁽⁵⁾| T: O Murphy

7/4

Proved a different proposition in a tongue tie (back on today) when opening his account in a 2½m Perth handicap. Good second from 6 lb higher here last month and remains of interest. Cheekpieces on.

Form: 7000-12

Dynali^p,t¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: W T Kennedy| T: Ian Williams

7/1

Fair Flat winner who was runner-up to a subsequent winner in a first-time tongue tie at Ludlow (23.8f) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Should go well.

Form: 347/0-52

Voyburg⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: David Bass| T: K Bailey & M Nicholls

7/1

Beaten a long way out at Bangor 6 weeks ago but this trip does look more suitable now handicapping.

Form: 94-56

Storm Arcadio²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: L Horsfall

33/1

Placed twice in bumpers and has reached the frame in a trio of maiden hurdles, latest at Fakenham 25 days ago, but that still only represents modest form.

Form: 3P-3373

Rebel Royal^b¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: D A Jacob| T: B I Case| C

15/2

Confirmed his return to form when second in 9-runner handicap at Stratford (18.7f) 12 days ago. Should remain competitive off same mark.

Form: P70P32

The Rutland Rebel^p1²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: C O'Farrell| T: Micky Hammond

15/2

Well treated on the pick of his Flat form but was well beaten back in this sphere at this venue (25f) 4 weeks ago. Cheekpieces on for the 1st time

Form: 696/0-7

Funway Monarch⁸³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-11| J: J M Quinlan| T: N B KingWS

14/1

Hinted at ability in bumpers but very little to shout about so far over hurdles, pulling up in a first-time tongue strap on Worcester handicap bow in August. Has had a wind op since.

Form: 95/7P-5P

Cut And Run^p²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Patrick Cowley⁽³⁾| T: M Keighley

25/1

Is sliding down the weights but has plenty to prove at present after pulling up for a second consecutive outing at Wincanton last time.

Form: P-758PP

Harry The Norseman^p,t²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Danny McMenamin| T: P R Webber

17/2

Gained breakthrough win on back of wind op at Uttoxeter (15.7f) in April. Failed to repeat that effort at Market Rasen but returned from a break with a respectable effort at Stratford last month.

Form: 3/P91-65

Zara's Universe^p³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: J Kington| T: A Crook

18/1

Poor maiden who wasn't disgraced from 3 lb out of the weights when third in 8-runner handicap at Hexham (20.1f) 39 days ago, though isn't one to go overboard about.

Form: 5-28463

Risky Business^p³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Ben Godfrey⁽⁵⁾| T: Martin Smith

25/1

Poor maiden on the Flat. Fared quite a bit better than previously in this sphere when fourth in a 15.8f juvenile here 35 days ago, though was probably flattered. Up in trip for handicap bow.

Form: 664

Forecasts

Salley Gardens (7/4), Voyburg (7/1), Dynali (7/1), The Rutland Rebel (15/2), Rebel Royal (15/2), Harry The Norseman (17/2), Funway Monarch (14/1), Zara's Universe (18/1), Risky Business (25/1), Cut And Run (25/1), Storm Arcadio (33/1), Gavin (50/1)

SALLEY GARDENS has found some improvement for the step up to 2½m recently, and with still relatively few miles on the clock, he remains one to be interested in. Dynali was beaten only by a subsequent winner at Ludlow so is respected dropping back in trip, with Rebel Royal another to consider having found some form again from his reduced mark.
