13/2

16/1, last of 12 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to soft). Off 8 months. Likely to need the run, so hard to make a solid case for.

Saisons D'Or²⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 67| D

11/1

Latest win at Southwell in March. 15/2, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 25 days ago. Bit to prove on the back of a couple of poor efforts.

Form: 80-5170

Gunnerside²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 66| BF| C| D

6/1

Course winner. Eight wins from 30 Flat runs. Latest win at Musselburgh in May. Fifth of 8 in handicap (5/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 21 days ago, left poorly placed. Still very much one to be interested in.

Form: 241615

Yoshimi^p⁷⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: M Herrington| OR: 63| D

8/1

8/1, 11¼ lengths eighth of 9 to Saisons D'or in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 78 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Has slipped to a handy mark but no obvious indication that he's about to capitalise.

Form: 89-9568

La Feile⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 62| D

1/1

22/1, good second of 9 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Shortlist material.

Form: 4640-42

Northbound¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: P Hanagan| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 57| D

7/1

Latest win at Southwell in April. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Wetherby (7f, good to firm, 15/2) 17 days ago, better placed than most. Not taken lightly.

Form: 824-194

(8)

Banner Road¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: S H James| T: J S Goldie| OR: 50

33/1

Eighth of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 11/1) 14 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 4649-28

Earn Your Stripes^p¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-5| J: P Mathers| T: R M Smith| OR: 47

22/1

Bit below form fourth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Becoming well treated and more encouraging signs last time, so can't be dismissed.

Form: 6459-54

Forecasts

La Feile (1/1), Gunnerside (6/1), Cassy O (13/2), Northbound (7/1), Yoshimi (8/1), Saisons D'Or (11/1), Earn Your Stripes (22/1), Blame The Farrier (25/1), Banner Road (33/1)

LA FEILE ran a cracker when second in a better race than this at Catterick 8 days ago and looks capable of going one better from a handy mark. Gunnerside wasn't seen to best effect last time and is likely to step up, so he's a danger, and Northbound deserves respect on the back of a creditable effort at Wetherby.
