Latest win at Thirsk in April. Creditable second of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) 20 days ago. This course winner needs considering.

7/1
Unreliable sort. C&D winner. Last of 8 in handicap (8/1) at Newmarket (5f, good) 19 days ago. Back up in trip. Not easy to make a case for.

6/1
Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. Failed to handle the mud when eleventh of 14 in handicap at Chester (7f, heavy, 14/1) 29 days ago. Has to be taken seriously back under these less testing conditions off a handy-looking mark.

Latest win at Chelmsford City in April. Below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 9/2) 15 days ago. Enters calculations if shrugging off latest effort.

Forecasts

Society Lion (3/1), Sir Oliver (7/2), Priscilla's Wish (4/1), Mellys Flyer (6/1), Shades Of Summer (13/2), Tolstoy (7/1), Pearle D'or (14/1), Ultramarine (33/1)

Verdict

MELLYS FLYER wasn't seen to best effect in the mud when down the field at Chester last time and is worth siding with to bounce back in style off a still handy-looking mark. In-form course winner Society Lion could emerge as the chief threat, although Priscilla's Wish is always to be feared here and enters calculations along with Shades of Summer and Sir Oliver.
