Sweeping Statement^b1²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 79

9/5

Promising sort. Creditable third of 7 in handicap (4/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 25 days ago. Remains open to improvement and leading claims here in first-time blinkers.

Form: 64-63

City Streak²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Watson| T: A M Balding| OR: 72

10/11

Fairly useful gelding. Good second of 7 in minor event at Chepstow (10f, good to firm, 3/1) 21 days ago, conceding first run. Merits serious consideration.

Form: 25-4332

(2)

Cotai Star^p²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 69

9/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in minor event at Chepstow (10f, good to firm, 28/1) 21 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and no more than an each-way squeak.

Form: 54245

(6)

Floats On Air²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: I Furtado

80/1

Once-raced maiden. 50/1, last of 9 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) on debut 27 days ago. Significantly up in trip and he's hard to warm to.

Form: 9

(4)

Jacovec Cavern⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: George Bass⁽⁵⁾| T: M R Channon

17/2

Twice-raced maiden. Second of 11 in maiden at Pontefract (10f, good, 22/1) 6 days ago, running on. Won't be far away if able to build on that here, provided he takes to this surface.

Form: 82

(5)

My Friend Woody²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽³⁾| T: Jean-Rene Auvray

40/1

Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in minor event at Lingfield (6f, AW, 14/1) 23 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 75

(7)

Snooze Lane²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Joshua Bryan| T: Sarah Hollinshead

50/1

Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, third of 8 in maiden at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Will be of greater interest in handicaps further down the line.

Form: 83

(9)

Fillyfudge¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: George Wood| T: Miss A Murphy

80/1

Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 5 in minor event (28/1) at Newmarket (8f, good) on debut 17 days ago. Big step forward will be needed if she's to play a leading role.

Form: 4

(8)

Grant Me Serenity^p1²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: B A Curtis| T: G Boughey| OR: 64

20/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 4 in maiden (11/2) at Brighton (8f, good) 20 days ago, flattered by proximity. Cheekpieces on 1st time and needs to raise her game.

Form: 342

Forecasts

City Streak (10/11), Sweeping Statement (9/5), Jacovec Cavern (17/2), Cotai Star (9/1), Grant Me Serenity (20/1), My Friend Woody (40/1), Snooze Lane (50/1), Fillyfudge (80/1), Floats On Air (80/1)

This should be between CITY STREAK and Sweeping Statement, with marginal preference for the former who did well to finish as close as he did when hitting the crossbar at Chepstow last time and he performed with credit on his sole previous visit here. Sweeping Statement was beaten fairly and squarely on his handicap bow at Chelmsford, but that was still a solid effort in the context of this race and he is probably capable of better. Jacovec Cavern is best of the rest.
