9/4

Dual C&D winner, most recently in May. Creditable third of 7 in handicap at Salisbury (8f, good to firm, 5/4) 35 days ago, needing stronger gallop. High on the shortlist off the same mark back here.

9/2

C&D winner. Creditable eighth of 14 in handicap at Goodwood (9f, good to firm, 14/1) 39 days ago. Eased in class now and 1 lb lower, so there is certainly cause for optimism.

Hurricane Helen (9/4), Monaajez (11/4), Point Louise (9/2), Aviary (13/2), Girl Inthe Picture (8/1), Hold The Press (10/1), Storytime (14/1)

There are four C&D winners in the line-up and HURRICANE HELEN looks the most solid of them. Indeed, she was registering her second success here in May and followed that with a solid effort in a higher-grade handicap at Salisbury, leaving the impression that this mark is within reach. Point Louise also acquitted herself well in 0-70 company last time and merits respect, but if Monaajez is able to put his latest effort behind him he could be the main danger.
