Red Bravo⁵⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Tyler Heard⁽³⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 51| D

3/1

Two wins from 43 Flat runs. Twenty runs since last win in 2020. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 16/1) 59 days ago, slowly away. Looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 7400-25

Sly Madam^p⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: George Bass⁽³⁾| T: Miss S West| OR: 49| C

8/1

Temperamental sort. Course winner. Winner here in May. Fifth of 7 in handicap back here (8f, good, 13/2) 7 days ago. Certainly not without each-way hope.

Form: 93-0615

Queen Sarabi²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: A W Carroll| OR: 49| CD

3/1

Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (good, 13/2) 21 days ago, well positioned. 3 lb rise fair and she's expected to be bang there once again.

Form: 479-551

Chetan^b,t²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 9-5| J: Mollie Phillips⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45| D

9/2

Twenty runs since last win in 2020. Bit below form 2¾ lengths third of 6 to Sly Madam in handicap (7/2) at this course (8f, good) 21 days ago. This veteran is lurking on a dangerous mark and cannot be discounted.

Form: 0-75623

Blackthirtyone^t²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Aled Beech⁽³⁾| T: A West| OR: 45

20/1

14/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 29 days ago. Hard to fancy.

Form: 0000-79

Ringo Starlight^b,t²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Stefano Cherchi| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 55

5/1

7/1, creditable seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 29 days ago. Chance on old form, but one or two of these appeal as more likely winners.

Storm Dancer⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Georgia Dobie| T: A Watson| OR: 45

9/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 50/1) 59 days ago. Big step forward needed on this handicap debut.

Forecasts

Red Bravo (3/1), Queen Sarabi (3/1), Chetan (9/2), Ringo Starlight (5/1), River Chorus (13/2), Sly Madam (8/1), Storm Dancer (9/1), Blackthirtyone (20/1), Plymouth Rock (33/1)

It remains to be seen if QUEEN SARABI will be able to back up last month's breakthrough success over this C&D, but she will surely go mightly close if able to do so off just a 3 lb higher mark. Stablemate Chetan has to be feared back at this trip, but a bigger threat may be posed by River Chorus, who is still a maiden following 19 attempts but she has claims judged on her recent C&D effort.
