Royal Heart^p³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Rhys Clutterbuck⁽³⁾| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 52| D

6/1

Latest win at Kempton in March. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 9/1) 3 days ago, very slowly away. Well held sole previous run on turf and he's likely to find a few too good here.

Form: 146596

Mellencamp^t²⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: P Cosgrave| T: Brian O'Rourke| OR: 51

11/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, good third of 9 in handicap at Kempton (6f) when last seen in October, caught further back than ideal. Moving up in trip here should be in his favour and he needs considering.

Form: 0593-

Queen Sarabi¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: David Egan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 49| BF| CD

13/2

C&D winner in May. Sixth of 7 in handicap back here (soft, 3/1) 14 days ago, finding little. Profile is rather in-and-out, but probability of faster ground this time offers cause for optimism.

Form: 79-5516

Redredrobin⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: M S Saunders| OR: 48

3/1

11/1, very good second of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 43 days ago, clear of rest. Will be a danger to all if able to reproduce that level of form back on turf.

Form: 85077-2

River Chorus²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 47

12/1

Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 14/1, third of 5 in handicap at this C&D (good) 25 days ago. Will probably find one or two too good once more.

Form: 74-5973

(7)

Bear To Dream²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: William Carson| T: M J Attwater| OR: 55| CD

2/1

5/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 21 days ago, plenty in hand. Up 8 lb for that, but appears to be going the right way and she's a major player.

Form: 065-431

(3)

Global Acclamation^b⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: H Crouch| T: P R Chamings| OR: 46| D

9/1

Eighth of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 43 days ago and he's likely to come up short once again.

Form: 1359-08

(8)

Famous Footsteps¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Cameron Noble⁽³⁾| T: Rae Guest| OR: 55

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 4 in minor event at Yarmouth (8f, good to soft, 4/1) 12 days ago, possibly amiss. Needs to raise her game now handicapping.

Form: 6-874

Forecasts

Bear To Dream (2/1), Redredrobin (3/1), Royal Heart (6/1), Queen Sarabi (13/2), Global Acclamation (9/1), Mellencamp (11/1), River Chorus (12/1), Famous Footsteps (25/1)

This looks a tougher race than the one BEAR TO DREAM landed over C&D three weeks ago, but she did the job well that day and an 8 lb rise may not be enough to stop her. Next on the list is Redredrobin, who produced her best effort yet at Wolverhampton last time and will be a big threat if able to perform to a similar level now returned to turf. Mellencamp still has low mileage and also enters calculations, along with Queen Sarabi.
