Another Mystery²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Bryony Frost| T: L Wadham| OR: 98

8/1

Point winner who matched pick of his hurdles form when third on chase bow at Warwick in April. Failed to build on that when returning to action at Fakenham (3m, good) last month but it's still early days with him.

Form: 1/8333-4

Gandhi Maker¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 89| BF

11/10

Irish point winner who ran easily his best race under Rules having been gambled on when second of 9 in 20.5f Ayr handicap chase last month, going well in the lead for a long way, bad mistake 3 out and collared run-in. Yard among winners in recent days. Leading claims with improvement on the cards.

Form: 1/777-P2

Sir Apollo²¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 84| BF

15/2

Best run in 4 handicap chases last term when second at Newcastle (2½m) in March. Still unexposed and appeals as one his capable stable will get more out of this season.

Form: 99/5524-

Bells Of Stamford²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Alan Johns| T: Tim Vaughan| OR: 83

5/1

Lightly-raced sort who left previous form behind when landing a 20.5f handicap hurdle at Ayr in May. Fair third at Fakenham 5 months later. Makes chase debut.

Form: 5885-13

Passing Secrets^t¹⁶⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-6| J: Lewis Stones⁽⁵⁾| T: T R Gretton| OR: 78

9/1

Yet to get his head in front but he certainly knocked on the door last season, finishing runner-up 4 times. Absent since a lesser run at Newton Abbot in May.

Form: 222F2-5

Wildkatze^t²⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Lee Edwards| T: T R Gretton| OR: 77

25/1

Runner-up in a 19f chase here in February. Ended her campaign with a lesser run at Leicester in March. Not the most consistent to date but capable off this mark if on a going day. One of 2 runners for her stable.

Form: P/92P27-

Caro Des Flos¹⁴²

Age: 10| Weight: 10-4| J: Thomas Bellamy| T: J S Smith| OR: 76

14/1

Won at Worcester off 14 lb higher in summer 2021 but much more miss than hit since, pulling up at Newton Abbot when last seen in June. A break needs to have had a reviving effect.

Form: 5P4-5PP

Forecasts

Gandhi Maker (11/10), Bells Of Stamford (5/1), Sir Apollo (15/2), Another Mystery (8/1), Radetzky March (17/2), Passing Secrets (9/1), Caro Des Flos (14/1), Wildkatze (25/1), L'Es Fremantle (50/1)

GANDHI MAKER shaped like a handicap chase winner in waiting at Ayr last time and looks the one to beat with his stable going well. Radetzky March will be a threat if primed for his first outing since March, while Sir Apollo is a lightly-raced chaser who likely has his best days ahead of him.
