Adelisa¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: M Harley| T: K P De Foy| OR: 67| D

4/9

Infrequent winner in Ireland who was well backed to make winning debut for new yard in 10-runner handicap at Kempton (1m) 14 days ago, always holding on. Should go well again from 6 lb higher mark.

Form: 990051

Diffident Spirit²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Ray Dawson| T: T Kent| OR: 65| D

13/2

Dual winner at up to 1m on turf last year. Exploits mixed so far this campaign, seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (1m) 28 days ago, albeit in need of stronger gallop. Mark has eased a little more at least.

Form: 849-767

Qeyaady⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J F Egan| T: P Phelan| OR: 65

16/1

Not yet matched peak French form, again below best following a short break when sixth of 9 in handicap at Windsor (11.4) 44 days ago. Market may prove best guide now starting out for Pat Phelan.

Form: 6-80306

Habanero Star^p¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 59| D

16/1

Improved model this season, making it wins from 5 starts when winning 12-runner handicap at Yarmouth (1m) 14 days ago, leading 1f out and always holding on. Entitled to be in the mix again in this groove.

Form: 2-51711

Dewey Road^p1²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Cieren Fallon| T: M Appleby| OR: 58

11/2

Successful over 6f as a juvenile in 2020 but winless since for Richard Hannon, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (7.8f) 28 days ago, very slowly away. Has since joined yard who do well with such types so interesting if market speaks in his favour. Cheekpieces on.

Forecasts

Adelisa (4/9), Dewey Road (11/2), Diffident Spirit (13/2), Masqool (15/2), Admodum (14/1), Habanero Star (16/1), Qeyaady (16/1)

ADELISA was well backed and justified the support to make her first start for Kevin Philippart de Foy a winning one at Kempton (1m) 2 weeks ago. 6 lb higher now, she could well be up to following up. Habanero Star, who is 3-5 this year, rates an obvious danger, ahead of Masqool. Market support for Dewey Road on debut for Mick Appleby would also look significant.
