Charlie's Yard^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: B A Curtis| T: P D Evans| OR: 55

7/4

Won first 2 starts upon joining this yard and back to that level granted the run of the race when second of 4 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, firm, 7/2) 14 days ago. Should give another good account in refitted cheekpieces/partnered by Ben Curtis.

Form: 0-11352

Valley Of Flowers²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: S A Gray| T: Samantha & Jacqueline Coward| OR: 50

3/1

Low-mileage filly who has a lowly mark to work from and ran well on back of 12 months off when fourth in a C&D handicap 25 days ago, not beaten far having set a strong pace. Possible she can build on that.

Form: 40/386-4

(1)

O'Reilly's Pass⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 45

8/1

Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. 11/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good to firm) 6 days ago, eased down. Others make greater appeal.

Qweldryk²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: G Lee| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 52

15/2

Standout effort in handicaps when fourth of 9 over C&D in May, doing her best work at the finish. Proved most disappointing at Thirsk/Pontefract since and bounce back called for returned to this venue.

Form: 76-0466

Cathy's Girl^v1²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 50

12/1

Maiden who arrives having again showed little when sixth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good to firm, 20/1) 22 days ago. Fitting of a visor needs to have a positive effect now.

Form: 059076

Foreshadow^v1⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Billy Garritty| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 49

8/1

Maiden who ran well when placed on a couple of occasions on AW earlier this year. May have needed first run for 8 weeks at Ripon (12f) in June and visor now the headgear of choice.

Form: 423754

Ballynaveen Boy^v1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 48

Oscar Doodle^p1¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 45

18/1

33/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (13.1f, good to firm) 11 days ago, effort under 4f out and no extra final 1f. More needed if he's to open his account here. Down in trip.

Form: 0-70005

Forecasts

Charlie's Yard (7/4), Valley Of Flowers (3/1), Qweldryk (15/2), Foreshadow (8/1), O'Reilly's Pass (8/1), Cathy's Girl (12/1), Oscar Doodle (18/1), Loving Pearl (20/1), Ballynaveen Boy (28/1)

A dual winner during the spring, CHARLIE'S YARD returned to form when runner-up in a 4-runner Bath handicap 2 weeks ago. Refitted with cheekpieces, he could be the answer under Ben Curtis. Valley of Flowers ran well on return/debut for Jacqueline Coward when fourth over C&D recently and is feared, whilst a return to this venue may have a positive effect on Qweldryk.
