Artaois⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: James Doyle| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 85

7/1

Fairly useful form. Won 7.5f Chester novice at 2. Faded into well-held third in 1m course conditions event on reappearance in April. Drops significantly in trip in bid to get back on track.

Form: 617-3

(10)

Gold Medal²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: R Hughes| OR: 83| D

14/1

Dual 6f novice winner on AW. Respecable start in handicaps when fifth over 7f here and probably worth forgiving latest run over 6f at Newmarket as he was hampered. Drawn widest.

Form: 15-150

(1)

Secret Strength³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 80

9/2

Novice winner at 2 for Richard Hannon. Easily best run for new yard when runner-up over C&D on penultimate start. Will need a career best to take this.

Form: 469-420

(2)

Willoughby Bay²³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 80| BF| D

9/1

Suited by step up in trip when winning 10-runner novice at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) last August. Not in the same form when third in 5f Bath novice on final start. Makes reappearance/handicap debut wth his yard in fine form. Unexposed.

Form: 4313-

King Of Jungle²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: E Walker| OR: 79| CD

7/2

Promising type. C&D debut winner who resumed winning ways in 6f Nottingham handicap 22 days ago. Raised 6 lb but he appeals as the type to progress again. Leading claims under Marquand.

Form: 1461

(8)

Harb^v¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S W Kelly| T: W J Knight| OR: 79| D

40/1

50/1 and visored first time, best run for new yard when fourth of 9 in handicap at Windsor (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Will need to build on that if he's to play a prominent role in this.

Form: 174-684

(5)

Latin Lover¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: George Wood| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 78

10/3

17/2, good third of 21 in handicap at York (6f, good) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces worn at York left off. Makes polytrack debut. Likely to have a big say for in-form yard.

Form: 825-343

(4)

Tyson¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 78

12/1

Won a 5f Bath maiden on final 2-y-o start. Hasn't made a significant impact in his 2 handicaps this term and others certainly arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 2831-65

(3)

Dreaming⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 78| CD

7/1

Lightly-raced C&D winner. Stepped up on reappearance when sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f, 14/1) 7 days ago.

Form: 512-06

Non-Runners

El Hadeeyah⁷⁵

Weight: 9-4| Age: 3

T: J Tate J: David Probert

Forecasts

Latin Lover (10/3), King Of Jungle (7/2), Secret Strength (9/2), Artaois (7/1), Dreaming (7/1), Willoughby Bay (9/1), Tyson (12/1), Gold Medal (14/1), El Hadeeyah (16/1), Harb (40/1)

KING OF JUNGLE likely has more to offer and is taken to make light of a 6 lb rise for Nottingham. Latin Lover's latest York third appeals as solid form so he's put up as the chief threat ahead of the reappearing Willoughby Bay.
