Ivy Avenue^p³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Frederick Larson| T: M Appleby| OR: 62| BF| D

3/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Second of 3 in handicap at Leicester (11.8f, good to firm, 8/13) 31 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once again.

Form: 40/2222

Enzos Angel^p1⁶⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Luke Catton⁽³⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 60

18/1

Showed some potential early in his career but this season's efforts have been uninspiring.

Form: 4470-65

Beryl Burton⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Jonny Peate| T: John Berry| OR: 59| BF| D

2/1

Unlucky not to go even closer when second of 12 in handicap at Pontefract on penultimate start and backed it up with a respectable sixth (despite meeting trouble) at Bath. Returns from 2-month break with solid claims.

Form: 216-226

(4)

Out Of Sight²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Christian Howarth⁽³⁾| T: A French| OR: 59| D

2/1

Confirmed previous encouragement when defying a reduced mark at Beverley last time. Remains well treated on old form and worth a chance to follow up.

Form: 2/50-741

Miss Harmony^p1¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Jay Mackay⁽⁷⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 56| CD

11/1

C&D winner who is back to an appealing mark but hasn't been firing lately.

Form: 417677

(6)

Star For A Day^h¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Deon Le Roux⁽⁷⁾| T: S Hodgson| OR: 54

22/1

Hasn't shown much to date and is hard to warm to on first handicap outing.

Form: 688

Recorwoman^t⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Elle-May Croot⁽⁵⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 52

12/1

Tricky customer who arrives out of form, so easily passed over.

Forecasts

Beryl Burton (2/1), Out Of Sight (2/1), Ivy Avenue (3/1), Lethal Touch (5/1), Miss Harmony (11/1), Recorwoman (12/1), Enzos Angel (18/1), Star For A Day (22/1), Honky Tonk Town (25/1)

OUT OF SIGHT did well to hang on at Beverley last time considering how freely he raced and he's still well handicapped on old form, so he gets the nod over Beryl Burton, who was shaping up well when last seen a couple of months ago. Lethal Touch is also considered.
