Spring Is Sprung²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽⁵⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 86| D

5/2

Successful reappearance at Southwell in January. Creditable thirteenth of 27 in handicap (33/1) at Royal Ascot last month and this is a far easier assignment.

Form: 410-130

Rum Cocktail¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: R L Moore| T: C G Cox| OR: 84| BF| C| D

1/1

Easy to excuse Windsor reappearance and better than ever when winning at Goodwood in June. 11/4, bit below form third of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (5f) 14 days ago but she can bounce back.

Form: 512-613

(2)

Desert Team³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Burns⁽⁵⁾| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 78| BF| D

11/4

Second win of the campaign at Catterick in May. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (5f) but this mark shouldn't be out of reach.

Form: 2-41314

Forecasts

Rum Cocktail (1/1), Spring Is Sprung (5/2), Desert Team (11/4)

This is trappy but DESERT TEAM beat a subsequent big improver at Catterick and, given time off after a lesser run at Nottingham, is fancied to regain the winning thread. Rum Cocktail could be the main threat.
