Manitou^b1²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 84

8/13

Fairly useful gelding who won twice last term. Underwhelming efforts in pair of starts so far this campaign, fifth of 6 in handicap at Doncaster (1m) 24 days ago. Underfoot conditions a plausible excuse then and this drop in grade may well see him get back on track in first-time blinkers.

Form: 3317-95

Mr Gloverman^p1²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Rossa Ryan| T: K Frost| OR: 58

9/1

Modest gelding. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 13/2) 22 days ago, ridden over 3f out and never involved. Cheekpieces on for turf debut.

Form: 720-556

12/1

Fair gelding. Winner at Wolverhampton in May. 16/1, below form seventh of 15 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to soft) 8 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Needs to bounce back down in grade.

Motasaleeta^p,t¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Botti

14/1

Twice-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, third of 6 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 14/1) 18 days ago. More needed to figure, even at this level.

Form: 6-3

Crown Bridges²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Tom Marquand| T: L Bailey| OR: 61

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 100/1, first run since leaving Hugo Palmer when fourth of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good) 23 days ago. Needs to build on that if he's to figure here.

Form: 4665-4

She's A Mirage⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Hayley Turner| T: P D Evans| OR: 51

4/1

Modest filly. Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Bit below form seventh of 14 in handicap (5/1) at Brighton (7f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Forecasts

Manitou (8/13), Montelusa (5/2), She's A Mirage (4/1), Mr Gloverman (9/1), South Dakota Sioux (12/1), Motasaleeta (14/1), Crown Bridges (22/1)

A dual winner as a 2-y-o, MANITOU needs to shrug off a pair of lesser displays upon returning this term but he did have excuses on account of the heavy ground at Doncaster latest and this marked drop in grade could well see him get back on track. Montelusa is clearly not straightforward but has the ability to play a part on debut for his new yard. Crown Bridges may do best of the remainder.
