Charlie Mason²²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: B A Curtis| T: P D Evans

Mayson colt. Brother to useful 5f-6f winner Dora Penny and half-brother to 2 winners, including 7f winner Doctor Nuno. Dam 5f/6f winner. Showed little on debut in 6f Haydock maiden 3 weeks ago although that was a much stronger race than this.

Twice-raced maiden. First run since leaving Roger Fell when last of 5 in maiden (10/1) at Hamilton (5f, firm) 2 days ago.

Stamper^b1²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: Ollie Pears

14/1

Has shown a bit in 5f Beverley maiden and 6f Redcar maiden, looking rather ungainly last time. Could do better with blinkers fitted now.

Form: 63

(4)

Surface To Air^v³¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: R Kingscote| T: P D Evans

7/1

Showed first form in 3 starts with visor fitted at Chepstow last time although having raced in front he undid the good work once pressured, flashing tail and hanging left. Steps up to 6f.

Form: 584

(7)

Up The Jazz²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey

4/1

Showed a bit more than first time up when second (no match for runaway winner) in 6f Redcar maiden last month. That form isn't great but he makes more appeal than a lot of these for top local yard who won this in 2021.

Form: 72

Travel Candy^t1¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison

7/2

Well backed down markedly in grade and ran out an easy winner of 5f Beverley claimer a fortnight ago. There was plenty of interest for her afterwards and she could quickly make a profit for her new connections here, with 6f promising to suit on pedigree. Tongue tie fitted.

Form: 761

Bazball^v1²²

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke

9/2

Little impact in 5f maidens and visor reached for now.

28/1, well beaten in 5f Pontefract novice on debut 8 weeks ago. 1 of 4 runners for yard.

Form: 7

Missutoo^b¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby

No show in 3 races (blinkered in 6f Redcar maiden latest).

Form: 709

Regal Solitaire

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin

18/1

Foaled May 18. Massaat filly. Sister to winner abroad and half-sister to 3 winners, including 6f winner Recall The Show and 5f winner Aaliya. Starts out at a lowly level and yard have had a 2-y-o win well first time up recently.

Forecasts

Travel Candy (7/2), Up The Jazz (4/1), Bazball (9/2), Celestial Flight (7/1), Surface To Air (7/1), Charlie Mason (17/2), Stamper (14/1), Regal Solitaire (18/1), Lastingham (20/1), Evoluir (40/1), Missutoo (40/1), Birkie Boy (50/1), Kaaress (66/1), Ryoto (66/1)

A long-standing valuable seller but this looks an uninspiring renewal on paper even for the grade and TRAVEL CANDY, the only previous winner in the field, can make a successful start for Brian Ellison. She was in demand after landing a 5f Beverley claimer and can follow up back over 6f with a tongue tie fitted. Newcomer Regal Solitaire and Richard Fahey's Up The Jazz could be a couple of the dangers.
