7/1

New Bay gelding who has displayed minor promise in maiden/novice company, albeit well held when ninth of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 40 days ago. Still, entitled to hold more chance now handicapping.

9/2

Fair gelding who opened his account on handicap debut at Newcastle (7f) in March prior to hitting frame next 3 starts. However, been well below best more recently. only fourth of 6 in claimer at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Blinkers reached for now.

2/1

Winner at Carlisle in May. 6/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, firm) 21 days ago, not quicken once in the clear. Still, he's certainly not ruled out in an open-looking contest.

Form: 8-94126

May Punch^p³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: T Hamilton| T: T D Easterby| OR: 58| D

5/1

Winner at Ripon (1m) in May. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm, 6/1) 32 days ago. Was previously proving consistent and short break may have helped ahead of this.

Form: 731235

Coligone Kate^p³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Cam Hardie| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 58

11/1

11/2, last of 6 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 39 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Drop back in trip rates a likely plus.

Form: 6-63526

(8)

Wheal Kitty¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: G Lee| T: B Smart| OR: 57

9/2

Respectable third of 7 in maiden at Catterick (7f, good to firm, 11/4) 17 days ago, joined 2f out and no extra last ½f. Return to handicaps rates a plus and handicapper has relinquished his grip.

Form: 36-3323

(2)

Hoots Toots^t³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 52

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Showed first form when fifth of 9 in minor event (50/1) at Chester (7.6f, good to firm) 35 days ago, meeting some trouble halfway and never on terms. May have more to offer now handicapping.

Form: 0775

Forecasts

Time To Rumble (2/1), Wheal Kitty (9/2), Ba Na Hills (9/2), May Punch (5/1), Red Command (13/2), Rampage (7/1), Coligone Kate (11/1), Hoots Toots (14/1), Perseption (50/1)

MAY PUNCH wasn't at her best when last seen at Hamilton yet she was proving consistent previously and, having been given a short break since, she may well be up to bouncing back. Time To Rumble and Red Command are others fancied to be thereabouts, whilst market support for Rampage would also need to be viewed positively.
