(3)

Pinwheel²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Billy Loughnane| T: George Baker| OR: 71

11/4

Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Solid chance judged on Brighton near-miss prior to that.

Form: 4-96327

Airshow^p,h²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: Oliver Searle⁽⁵⁾| T: B R Millman| OR: 69| D

3/1

Latest win at Southwell in March. Creditable second of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 14/1) 2 days ago. Certainly wouldn't be without hope if turned out again quickly.

Form: 614032

The Princes Poet¹⁰^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Georgia Dobie| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 64| D

5/2

10/3, improved on recent efforts to win 6-runner handicap at Brighton (6f, good to firm) 10 days ago, comfortably. Big chance under a penalty.

Form: 6143-01

(7)

Under Curfew¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Mollie Phillips| T: A W Carroll| OR: 63| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Twenty-two runs since last win in 2021. 16/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 15 days ago but he looks vulnerable here.

Form: 6547-83

Concierge^p¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley| T: M J Attwater| OR: 62| D

5/1

Twenty-two runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fourth of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and could be a threat off this reduced mark.

Form: 0-46534

(4)

Into The Spotlight²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rhiain Ingram| T: Mark Gillard| OR: 60

66/1

Tenth of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm, 14/1) 24 days ago. Down in trip and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 33-5360

(2)

Q Twenty Boy⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: Olivia Tubb⁽⁵⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 54| CD

10/1

C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 686406

The Princes Poet (5/2), Pinwheel (11/4), Airshow (3/1), Concierge (5/1), Q Twenty Boy (10/1), Under Curfew (16/1), Into The Spotlight (66/1)

THE PRINCES POET banished memories of his very low-key reappearance at Windsor with a thoroughly decisive success in a Brighton handicap last week. If in the same form here, he will take plenty of stopping under a penalty. With star apprentice Billy Loughnane booked, Pinwheel could have a major say, particularly if reproducing the form of his penultimate start. Concierge continues to edge down the weights and is also worthy of consideration.
