Lady Nagin¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: R Havlin| T: S Woods| OR: 67| D

10/1

Won maiden and handicap over 6f at Southwell earlier in the year but below form recently. Remains to be seen if a switch to turf for the first time since her debut improves matters.

Form: 471740

Arbaawi¹⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 66| D

13/2

Runner-up twice in AW handicaps in February but has a 5-month absence to overcome.

Form: 01-8252

(3)

Sparkling Spirit²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: A Keatley| OR: 65

13/2

Promise when placed in AW novice events at Wolverhampton this year nearly 6 months apart. Unexposed now handicapping with Tom Marquand a positive booking.

Form: 5-33

Morning Colours^p1¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: M Botti| OR: 63

7/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, fifth of 8 in novice at Newmarket (7f, good) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces reached for on handicap debut. Her mark demands improvement.

Form: 695

Miss American Pie^b1²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L P Keniry| T: J S Moore| OR: 63

66/1

Hasn't built on turf debut win in spring 2022, including well held in AW handicaps in recent months. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces worn last time. Has something to prove.

Form: 10-90

(4)

Starproof¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 63

2/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 7/1) 14 days ago, fading after travelling well in the lead for a long way. Interesting dropped back to 6f.

Form: 03-555

(11)

Outreach²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: M D I Usher| OR: 61

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm) 20 days ago. Needs more.

Form: 4-244

(10)

Lahina Bay²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: David Probert| T: R Cook & J Bridger| OR: 60| D

11/4

Arrives on a hat-trick after narrow wins at Salisbury (6f) and Windsor (5f) last month. Likely to go well again.

Form: 800-311

(7)

Miss Moonshine²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Oliver Searle⁽⁷⁾| T: B R Millman| OR: 55| D

18/1

Won pair of 6f handicaps on AW at the start of the year, including here, but recent efforts have been very disappointing. Can only be watched.

Forecasts

Starproof (2/1), Eight Mile (5/2), Lahina Bay (11/4), Sparkling Spirit (13/2), Arbaawi (13/2), Morning Colours (7/1), Lady Nagin (10/1), Miss Moonshine (18/1), Parr Fire (25/1), Outreach (28/1), Miss American Pie (66/1)

EIGHT MILE looks well treated under a penalty for last week's comfortable Brighton success and can follow up. The hat-trick seeking Lahina Bay is an obvious danger, while Starproof is also interesting with the drop back to 6f likely to be in her favour.
