Cry Havoc⁷⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: A Kirby| T: Rae Guest| OR: 79| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2020. Respectable third of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 14/1) 79 days ago, not ideally placed.

Form: 6-43533

Adelaise⁵⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: David Probert| T: M Meade| OR: 84| D

9/1

Winner of novice at Kempton in March. 7/1, creditable fifth of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 58 days ago. Remains relatively unexposed after 4 starts.

Form: 7-105

Cygneture³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett| OR: 80| D

10/1

AW novice winner last November, despite flashing tail and carrying head awkwardly. Flashed tail under pressure again when never involved in 7f Newbury handicap on reappearance. Still early days those hints of temperament are a worry.

Form: 961-8

(4)

Ribbon Rose³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: N Callan| T: M Botti| OR: 80| D

17/2

Won maiden and novice events on first 2 starts but has failed to beat a rival in Group 3 Nell Gwyn and 1m Kempton handicap since. Hard to know what to expect.

Form: 1-188

(3)

Lila Girl³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: M L W Bell| OR: 77| CD

4/6

Progressive filly, winning a novice and handicap over C&D on her last 2 starts. Could be more to come so a 6 lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent the hat-trick.

Form: 62-11

(6)

Eternal Glory²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 70| D

18/1

Back to form with a bang when scoring at Wolverhampton in May but last of 8 at Hamilton since.

Form: 7-62618

Forecasts

Lila Girl (4/6), Cry Havoc (5/1), Ribbon Rose (17/2), Adelaise (9/1), Cygneture (10/1), Eternal Glory (18/1)

LILA GIRL rather stands out in this line-up as one very much heading in the right direction and can defy the handicapper again and complete a C&D hat-trick. Adelaise wasn't beaten too far in quite a warm race last time and can fill the foreacst spot.
