Barrolo¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 55| CD

11/8

Promising individual. 5/2, career best when winning 8-runner C&D handicap (good to firm) 15 days ago by 1½ lengths from the reopposing Ribkana, plenty in hand. 3 lb rise looks more than fair with further progress likely.

Form: 990-1

(6)

Girl From Italy¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J Garritty| T: M Walford| OR: 54

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, very good second of 8 in handicap at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 12 days ago, rallying. Likely capable of better again.

Form: 676-42

Bernie The Bear^p⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Nolan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 48

9/4

Arrives on the back of runner-up efforts over 7f at Carlisle and Doncaster this month. Ought to be competitive if proving as effective at 1m.

Form: 8243-22

(3)

Ribkana¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 48

8/1

4/1, very good 1½ lengths second of 8 to Barrolo over C&D (good to firm) 15 days ago but a 3 lb pull in the weights doesn't look enough for her to turn the tables on Grant Tuer's charge.

Form: 58-5202

(2)

Asgard's Captain²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: B A Curtis| T: Thomas Dowling| OR: 46

17/2

12/1, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at Roscommon (7f, good) 21 days ago. This Irish raider needs to find some improvement.

Form: 800-366

Barrolo (11/8), Bernie The Bear (9/4), Ribkana (8/1), Urban Champion (8/1), Asgard's Captain (17/2), Girl From Italy (14/1)

BARROLO had a bit to spare over C&D last time and can make light of a 3 lb rise. Girl From Italy took a step forward when runner-up at Beverley and give Grant Tuer's gelding most to think about ahead of Sunday's Doncaster second Bernie The Bear.
