Seal Of Solomon^v¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: N Callan| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 81

6/1

Better than ever when making a successful reappearance at Chelmsford in April. Good second of 5 in handicap at Southwell next time but took a slight backward step returned to turf at Salisbury 11 days ago.

Form: 317-126

Captain Kane²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: K Stott| T: George Scott| OR: 80| D

6/1

Prolific from a low base in handicaps last year, winning 7 times (at up to 12.1f). Yet to scale same heights this year, though a couple of slowly-run races against him of late and he's now 2 lb below last successful mark.

Form: 135-675

Saligo Bay¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: G & J Moore| OR: 79| CD

5/4

Strong at the finish and right back to his best when landing 10-runner handicap at Windsor 16 days ago. 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.

Form: 256/3-41

Wonder Starelzaam³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: R Coakley| T: D J Coakley| OR: 79| C

5/1

After 8 months off he proved better than ever when winning 10-runner handicap at Lingfield (1m2f, AW) with a bit in hand in March. Seemed found out by a 5 lb higher mark and a better race at Kempton and now switches back to turf (course winner).

Form: 1715-18

Udaberri¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: S Woods| OR: 78| D

6/1

Is threatening to come good soon, making a promising move into contention from a poor position when third in 8-runner handicap at Kempton (12f) last month. Didn't seem to stay 14f at Newmarket and better expected this time.

Form: 273-237

Swatch⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Cieren Fallon| T: R Brisland| OR: 72

12/1

Hasn't stood much racing and on the back of a gelding operation, he was never a factor on reappearance over 1m in April. Off since and upped markedly in trip.

Form: 51090-0

Forecasts

Saligo Bay (5/4), Wonder Starelzaam (5/1), Seal Of Solomon (6/1), Udaberri (6/1), Captain Kane (6/1), Swatch (12/1)

SALIGO BAY bounced right back to his best and landed a few bets in the process when successful at Windsor 16 days ago and a 3 lb rise won't prevent a very bold follow-up bid. Wonder Starelzaam won at this venue last summer and will find this easier than the AW race he contested last time, with Udaberri one to consider at longer odds.
