State Legend¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J Ferguson| OR: 77

10/3

Won first 2 handicaps (both around 1¼m on AW). Not in quite the same form when only fifth of 9 back on turf at Nottingham 17 days ago.

Form: 843-115

Wholeofthemoon²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hughes| OR: 75

6/5

No match for the promising Aldous Huxley on 1¼m Kempton return but saw off rest comfortably. Opening handicap mark of 75 looks generous on that form. Hard to stop if stamina holds now stepping up in trip.

Form: 44-2

(3)

Wolsey²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: A M Balding| OR: 75

7/1

Fair form but he was over 8 lengths behind Wholeofthemoon at Kempton last time but meets him on level weights on his handicap debut.

Form: 27-45

(2)

Levitate¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 75

3/1

Fair form on all 3 starts in maiden and novices over 1¼m. Possible improver now handicapping over a longer trip

Form: 32-3

Herbertandflorence²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: D C Griffiths| OR: 60

66/1

Well held on all 3 starts in handicaps, including on yard/reappearance at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 4 weeks ago. Hard to make a case for.

Forecasts

Wholeofthemoon (6/5), Levitate (3/1), State Legend (10/3), Polyphonic (9/2), Wolsey (7/1), Herbertandflorence (66/1)

WHOLEOFTHEMOON looks to have been let in lightly for this handicap debut and should be tough to beat if seeing out the extra 2f. Fellow handicap newcomers Polyphonic and Levitate can give him most to think about.
