Goldie Hawk²⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: C F Wall| OR: 89| D

12/1

Took form to another level when scoring in good style at Haydock last summer but failed to make an impact at listed level next 2 starts. Career best probably required to defy current mark on return.

Form: 313196-

Vindolanda²⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: Dane O'Neill| T: C Hills| OR: 86| D

16/1

Defied a mark of 81 at Ascot last summer and acquitted herself well off higher marks later in the season. Needed reappearance for last 2 seasons, however.

Form: 591236-

Crema Inglesa^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Saffie Osborne⁽³⁾| T: J A Osborne| OR: 85

9/2

Gained third success of 2021 at Sandown (10f, heavy) in September and had no problem with 12f when runner-up at Newmarket following month. Improved again when only just failing at Ascot on return, clear of rest. Versatile as regards ground and should go well again.

Form: 15128-2

Percy's Pride²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: W J Knight| OR: 84| D

9/2

Won 3 times last year and wasn't disgraced in a listed event at Bath on her final outing. Ran to similar level when fourth at Doncaster on return and probably needs to find bit more to defy current mark.

Form: 47157-4

Hyanna²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 83| D

8/1

Signs of decline last season and latest fifth at Windsor on return was just respectable. Mark continues to slide at least.

Form: 82685-5

Haseefah¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: George Bass⁽⁵⁾| T: A King| OR: 83| D

13/2

Ex-French 1m2f winner who ran with credit on each of his 3 starts on Flat upon joining present yard last year. Didn't kick on from hurdles debut victory thereafter in that sphere but made a winning return to the Flat at Chester 2 weeks ago, albeit seen to advantage in front.

Form: 39/422-1

Speak⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Hayley Turner| T: A M Balding| OR: 84

7/2

Made winning debut at Kempton last summer and not disgraced when 11¾ lengths fifth of 6 to Inspiral in May Hill Stakes. Just a fair fourth on reappearance in novice company and opening mark demands more.

Form: 15-4

Candy Kitchen¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: J F Egan| T: M L W Bell| OR: 80

5/1

Improved form stepped up in trip and switched to handicaps this season, building on comeback when decisive winner at Windsor 12 days ago. Of interest again.

Form: 425-71

Forecasts

Speak (7/2), Crema Inglesa (9/2), Percy's Pride (9/2), Candy Kitchen (5/1), Haseefah (13/2), Hyanna (8/1), Tregony (8/1), Jewel In My Crown (10/1), Goldie Hawk (12/1), Vindolanda (16/1)

CREMA INGLESA had a good 3-y-o season and upped her game further when only just failing at Ascot on return. She pulled clear of the rest that day so must be taken seriously again. Progressive 3-y-o Candy Kitchen is an obvious threat after her stylish win at Windsor, while Tregony remains one to be positive about.
