Sinndarella³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Chris Ward| T: Sarah Hollinshead| OR: 100

5/1

Hasn't progressed since landing the odds in a 3-runner mares' novice at Ludlow in October 2021 but latest second at Cartmel in June was a solid showing and there's reason to think she'll go well again.

Form: 43545-2

Taragrace¹⁰⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Charlie Maggs⁽⁸⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 100

11/4

Won twice early in 2022 and better than ever under this conditional when second of 13 over 19.6f in April. Off since but stays this far and she's in very good hands.

Form: 225P42-

Black Buble³⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: Lily Pinchin| T: A W Carroll| OR: 96| C

16/1

Fair handicap hurdler but lightly raced in recent times and hard to know how much ability he retains. This is a drop in grade, though.

Form: PP47/48

Journey West^b¹⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Cillin Leonard| T: M Young| OR: 96

66/1

Tongue tie on and a bit more loke it when seventh at Ayr in March. Since left Colin A.McBratney.

Form: 12F0P7-

Getthepot^p,t⁴⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Ned Fox| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 94WS

7/1

Doubled chase tally last year but refused last at Fakenham on final 2022 start. Little promise both starts in June and has left Fergal O'Brien. Had a wind op and reverts to timber.

Form: 2F1R-5P

Sunshine Girl¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Tabitha Worsley| T: G Hanmer| OR: 88

7/2

Upped further in trip and signed off time for Stuart Crawford in the perfect fashion at Southwell 17 days ago. Has to be of interest for new yard.

Form: 27-5741

Punches Cross^p⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 10-12| J: Benjamin Macey⁽¹⁰⁾| T: J & A O'Neill| OR: 84

28/1

Useful handicap chaser at best for Joseph Patrick O'Brien but form has gone the wrong way for his current trainer, always behind over hurdles last week. Mark tumbling but can only be of interest if the market vibes are positive in re-fitted cheekpieces.

Form: 4/4P7-49

Buto^t,v⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Joshua Thompson⁽⁸⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 76| D

9/2

Belatedly off the mark at Hexham in May and has remained in form since at that venue. Should give his running again.

Form: 894-132

Dakota Beat^t¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Joe Williamson| T: J R Norton| OR: 73

11/1

One of better efforts for current yard when sixth of 12 at Market Rasen in June but failed to repeat that effort at Stratford and is just out of the weights again.

Form: P6P6-66

Forecasts

Taragrace (11/4), Sunshine Girl (7/2), Buto (9/2), Sinndarella (5/1), Getthepot (7/1), Dakota Beat (11/1), Black Buble (16/1), Out For The Count (25/1), Punches Cross (28/1), Journey West (66/1)

SUNSHINE GIRL is unexposed over this trip, and having got off the mark on final start for Stuart Crawford recently, is taken to double her tally. Buto is pretty reliable at this level, while Taragrace has to be considered on her return to action.
