Roshambo^e/s²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 69| D

7/2

6f AW winner this time last year and solid efforts in handicaps this term. Back down in grade and should find another race.

Form: 215-333

Blue Flame^t1¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 69

22/1

Raced mostly on AW and yet to fully fire for current yard. On a very tempting mark if he can find his spark again back on turf fitted with tongue tie, and rider has a good record on him. Interesting.

Form: 762-598

Swiss Star²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: W Buick| T: R Varian| OR: 72| D

5/6

Has made a solid start, winning 6f Doncaster novice last month. The third was an improving winner next time so the form looks solid enough and she's one to keep onside.

Form: 321

Epic Express^p¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Mia Nicholls⁽⁷⁾| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 68| D

12/1

Won 6f handicap on the other course here in May but well held both starts since. Has the services of a young claimer now who has been impressing.

Form: 475146

Dors Toyboy²⁴⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: J Quinn| T: D K Ivory| OR: 67

66/1

Did well on AW last year, winning three 7f handicaps. Rare run on turf (first start for 8 months) and suspect he'll come on for this.

Plumette¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Charles Bishop| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 67| D

28/1

Won twice at Wolverhampton earlier this year for David Loughnane. Fair runs for new yard back on turf the last twice and one to note dropped to 6f.

Form: 633883

Jungle Run^b⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: R Havlin| T: Tom Clover| OR: 66| D

16/1

Another raced mostly on AW, winning 6f Chelmsford handicap in May. Form of subsequent Lingfield effort has worked out nicely and he's one to note.

Form: 9-02414

Rhythmic Acclaim¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: A J Farragher⁽³⁾| T: P J McBride| OR: 63

13/2

Yet to win, struggling in the mud at Nottingham last time. Her second to Quinault (now rated 105) in the spring is still hard to get away from.

Form: 6-74224

(9)

Porfin^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Molly Presland⁽⁷⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 58| D

11/1

In fine form, doing plenty on the front end in 7f handicap here last week, but this is tougher.

Form: 343323

Forecasts

Swiss Star (5/6), Roshambo (7/2), Rhythmic Acclaim (13/2), Jack's Point (10/1), Porfin (11/1), Epic Express (12/1), Jungle Run (16/1), Beach Buoy (20/1), Blue Flame (22/1), Plumette (28/1), Dors Toyboy (66/1)

There is more to come from the well-bred 3-y-o SWISS STAR after her Doncaster victory and she can make a successful handicap debut. Blue Flame is interesting back under Marco Ghiani from a much-reduced mark, while Jungle Run and Epic Express are a couple of others to note.
