Detective¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 77| BF| CD

9/4

Fine run of form halted when eleventh of 14 in handicap (4/1) at this course (11.2f, good to firm) 10 days ago, slowly away. No surprise to see him leave last run behind.

Form: 22-1120

Global Spirit¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-2| J: Jonny Peate⁽⁵⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 77| D

5/1

Latest win at Pontefract in April. 12/1, reverted to more patient tactics when sixth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Could bounce back.

Form: 85-8106

Arranmore^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: S A Gray| T: D O'Meara| OR: 77| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Ninth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Needs to find more on recent form.

La Rav²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Rowan Scott| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 75| D

16/1

Operating below below best this year, eighth of 13 in handicap at York (8.8f, good to firm, 40/1) 21 days ago. Below last winning mark but others preferred at present.

Form: 346-078

Rains Of Castamere⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: D C Costello| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 72| D

25/1

Six wins from 23 Flat runs. Disappointing when only fourth of 5 in handicap at Ayr (8f, good, 3/1) 67 days ago, having run of race. First run for yard after leaving Iain Jardine. Needs a revival.

Form: 769-074

Strongbowe^p¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Phil Dennis| T: T D Easterby| OR: 71

8/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Confirmed return to form when fourth of 12 in handicap (11/2) at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 11 days ago, nearest finish. Contender off a dangerous mark.

Form: 9-06044

11/2

Forecasts

Detective (9/4), Jackhammer (16/5), Global Spirit (5/1), Jilly Cooper (11/2), Hello Zabeel (11/2), Strongbowe (8/1), Arranmore (12/1), La Rav (16/1), Rains Of Castamere (25/1)

An open-looking contest, with preference for JILLY COOPER who can build on her good second 8 days ago to get back to winning ways. The only 3-y-o in the line-up, she shaped well at Chester so can continue her progress to get the better of Strongbowe, who is now 2 lb below his last winning mark. Jackhammer is also respected as he bids to make it a fifth course success following his win here last time.
