Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: Luke Catton⁽⁵⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 69| D

Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (1m), doing too much too soon. Pulled too hard upped in trip next time. Off 125 days. Back down in distance.

Form: 450-640

Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 11/1) on return 86 days ago, nearest finish. May do better still and Ryan Moore booked.

10/1

Shaped well when second of 10 in handicap (10/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 81 days ago, conceding first run. Also looked unlucky at Lingfield on Wednesday and not taken lightly.

Ring of Light⁸⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Dane O'Neill| T: H Candy| OR: 61

15/2

Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, fifth of 11 in novice event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 87 days ago. Interesting that yard are persevering with him as an older horse and he remains with potential for handicaps.

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: David Egan| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 57

14/1

Modest form in a trio of maidens last year for P. & F. Monfort in France. Eighth of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft, 40/1) on UK debut 15 days ago, hampered. Must improve.

Form: 898-8

(3)

Red Evelyn¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: Joey Haynes| T: S Pearce| OR: 55| BF

10/1

One win from 21 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. 9/4, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 10 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Form: 793533

Forecasts

Barney's Bay (5/2), Micks Dream (10/3), Camachess (13/2), Ring of Light (15/2), Porfin (10/1), Red Evelyn (10/1), Smitten (14/1), Epic Express (16/1), Pinnata (16/1), Pivoting (33/1)

MICKS DREAM did his best work at the finish when going close at Salisbury on his return in April and this lightly-raced 4-y-o is taken to go one better stepped up to 7f. Ring of Light is also unexposed and rates the main threat on handicap bow, ahead of Red Evelyn.
