Miss Nay Never²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Rhys Clutterbuck⁽³⁾| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 80| D

18/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. Ninth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Haydock (5f, good) 22 days ago, not ideally placed. 0-13 on turf and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 871659

Sandbeck¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Ray Dawson| T: E Bethell| OR: 84| D

7/2

Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Haydock (5f, good to firm, 6/1) 13 days ago. Shade more needed up 4 lb, but she's clearly in good heart and is likely to be in the thick of things.

Form: 18-151

Rum Cocktail¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: J P Fahy| T: C G Cox| OR: 84| D

11/4

Career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to firm, 11/4) 14 days ago, running on. 2 lb rise almost certainly underestimates her and she's every inch a leading contender.

Form: 512-61

(3)

Havagomecca^p⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 77| BF| D

10/3

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good, 17/2) 4 days ago. Should make his presence felt, albeit one of two of these make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 450-722

(2)

Instinction^h²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Gianluca Sanna⁽⁷⁾| T: B Smart| OR: 81| D

7/1

Hooded for 1st time, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm, 22/1) 26 days ago. Now 3 lb lower, but needs to raise her game in order to take this.

Form: 2713-46

(1)

Ballintoy Harbour^p¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Ben Robinson| T: P T Midgley| OR: 76| D

7/1

12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 19 days ago. Headgear retained and, now 3 lb lower than for her Newmarket success last summer, she has to enter calculations.

Form: 878-604

(4)

Jeans Maite⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: P J McDonald| T: S R Bowring| OR: 67| D

9/1

Two wins from 5 runs this year, the latest at Southwell in February. 13/2, below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 52 days ago, doing too much too soon. Looks vulnerable.

Form: 2-51174

Forecasts

Rum Cocktail (11/4), Havagomecca (10/3), Sandbeck (7/2), Ballintoy Harbour (7/1), Instinction (7/1), Jeans Maite (9/1), Miss Nay Never (18/1)

RUM COCKTAIL got back on the up when narrowly prevailing at Goodwood a fortnight ago and this lightly-raced filly is taken to follow up here having been raised just 2 lb. Sandbeck also arrives here on the back of a career-best performance, but a bigger threat is likely to be posed by Ballintoy Harbour, who appeared to take a step back in the right direction over C&D last month and has slipped to a dangerous mark.
