2/1

Hidden Pearl²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Nicola Currie| T: John Berry| OR: 50

3/1

Modest mare. 5/2, finally off the mark under a good-value 5 lb claimer in 5-runner handicap at Bath (14f, firm) 24 days ago, unchallenged. Has to have a major say in this company provided she's in the same mood.

Form: 40-4221

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Mollie Phillips⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 48| CD

9/4

Modest gelding. 7/2, won 5-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 2 days ago. Has to be taken seriously if turned out again quickly.

Gin And Tea^h⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: William Cox⁽³⁾| T: R Woodman| OR: 41

80/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 on handicap debut (100/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm), slowly away. Off 3 months and though it remains early days, she's tough to make a case for.

Form: 0-870

11/1

Modest gelding. Last of 6 in handicap at Bath (8f, firm, 10/1) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. More needed.

17/2

Modest filly. Fifth of 6 in minor event at this course (9.9f, good to firm, 11/2) 2 days ago. Unlikely she will be involved at the business end today.

Forecasts

Global Style (2/1), Temur Khan (9/4), Hidden Pearl (3/1), Henley Park (5/1), Miss Metropolitan (17/2), Hold The Press (11/1), Gin And Tea (80/1)

A few in with a squeak but HIDDEN PEARL finally opened her account at Bath last month, and given the manner of that success, she's fancied to follow up at this low level. Temur Khan had a bit up his sleeve when scoring over C&D on Wednesday so he's put forward as the main danger if turned out again quickly. Global Style and Hold The Press can fight out minor honours.
