Lola's Moment¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 57

9/1

After 8 months off, shaped better than result when seventh of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm, 14/1) 17 days ago, giving way only late on. Likely to be much closer to form this time around.

Form: 54735-7

Form: 5685-66

(8)

Bloomin Robbery¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: F Norton| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 49

28/1

Hasn't progressed from debut, again taking strong hold when fourth of 5 in minor event at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 33/1) 15 days ago. Needs to settle better as she now goes handicapping.

Form: 744

Forecasts

Cinque Verde (15/8), Talha (85/40), Profitable Edge (7/1), Grandad Bob (7/1), Maggie's Tern (17/2), Lola's Moment (9/1), Stella Blue (12/1), Your Spirit (18/1), Bloomin Robbery (28/1)

The finale can go the way of TALHA, who soon got back on track when runner-up at Hamilton 15 days ago and looks ready to open his account as he now goes handicapping. Lola's Moment shaped better than the bare result on her return from 8 months off and is feared most, with Cinque Verde completing the shortlist.
