22/1, first run since leaving Mrs A. M. O'Shea when fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Bath (5f, soft) 40 days ago. Back up in trip. Hard to fancy on the back of that.

Soldier's Son^p,t²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: G Harris| OR: 45

Form: 5757-50

Forecasts

Redredrobin (5/2), Connie's Rose (4/1), Port Noir (9/2), Hagia Sophia (17/2), Red Alert (9/1), Savalas (10/1), Thegreatestshowman (12/1), Kyber Crystal (14/1), Soldier's Son (33/1), Diamondsinthesand (40/1)

CONNIE'S ROSE arrives in good order and handles the track well, so she's fancied to resume winning ways at the likely expense of Redredrobin, who has had a similarly positive start to the current campaign. Savalas may also feature if the pace is strong.
