True Jem²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 72

18/1

Successful 3 times on AW/turf at 6f last year but yet to fire in 4 starts this term, weakening over 1f out when eighth in 11-runner handicap at Doncaster (1m) 26 days ago. Now 5 lb below last winning mark but she's tough to assess at present.

Form: 25-0868

Classic Puzzle²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: G Lee| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 81| D

13/2

Zoffany filly who confirmed debut promise when landing 8-runner Thirsk maiden (7f, heavy) in May. Seemingly found listed company too hot, at least at this early stage, at Musselburgh since and this rates more suitable on handicap debut.

Form: 216

Kitai³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 80

7/1

Matched previous best when opening her account in a Pontefract maiden (6f) last summer. Well held at listed level on final start but better for return when fourth in 9-runner Catterick handicap (7f) 5 weeks ago. Mark has eased a little more.

Form: 2210-74

Tellus^t³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 79| D

3/1

Off the mark in 6f Pontefract novice on reappearance and improved again to make a successful handicap debut at Ayr (7f, good) in May. However, she needs to shrug off a below-par display at York (7f) 32 days ago.

Form: 224-110

(3)

Iris Dancer^b⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: A Mullen| T: T Davidson| OR: 65

6/1

Returned to form when narrow second at Hamilton (6f) on penultimate start and enhanced good record at that track when going one place better 7 days ago, making running and driven clear final 1f. No surprise to see her out under a penalty and respected.

Form: 342521

Greycious Anna²⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 74| DWS

17/2

Havana Grey filly who was much-improved from first 3 starts when taking 8-runner Redcar novice (7f) last August. Absent since finishing well-beaten at York in October but undergone wind surgery ahead of return and the betting could prove a useful guide.

Form: 77140-

Do I Dream⁶⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Haslam| OR: 65

11/1

Back to best on back of a 5-month break when doubling career tally at Pontefract (1m, heavy) in April. Best excused run back at that venue later that month. Absent since but fact she's gone well fresh previously is a plus if the drop back in trip doesn't catch her out.

Form: 2566-10

Platinum Girl⁹^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Sean Kirrane⁽³⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 66| CD

9/2

Improved model this campaign, making it 2 wins from 4 starts (runner-up other 2 occasions) when making all in a C&D handicap 9 days ago. Can't be ruled out under a penalty for all this is a step up in class.

Form: 07-2121

(5)

Lady Roamer¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: E Bethell| OR: 63

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden who made a satisfactory return from 10 months off when second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7f) 15 days ago, no match for easy winner. May well be sharper for that here but she's eligible for lesser contests than this one.

Form: 8747-2

Forecasts

Tellus (3/1), Platinum Girl (9/2), Iris Dancer (6/1), Classic Puzzle (13/2), Kitai (7/1), Greycious Anna (17/2), Do I Dream (11/1), Lady Roamer (12/1), Gometra Ginty (12/1), True Jem (18/1)

CLASSIC PUZZLE seemed to find listed company too much on her latest outing but she'd previously looked a filly to keep onside and could get back on the up having her first crack at handicaps. Platinum Girl, a good winner over C&D recently, heads the dangers. Gometra Ginty who has landed this race for each of the last 2 years and Iris Dancer are next best.
