12/1
C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in July. 9/1, last of 5 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good) 21 days ago. Shouldn't be judged too harshly on that (hampered 2f out) and she's an each-way player back here (2-3 at this course).

10/1
Three wins from 8 runs this year. 13/8, didn't need to improve to win 5-runner handicap at Brighton (8f, good) 46 days ago. More needed here up 3 lb but needs considering all the same.

16/1
Unreliable type. Last of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 7/2) 28 days ago. Has slipped to a potentially handy mark but he's 0-8 on turf and is probably worth taking on.

10/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Redcar (10f, good to firm) 30 days ago. Down in trip and would be dangerous off this reduced mark were he able to reproduce something akin to his peak form.

Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 10 in minor event at Southwell (7.1f, 25/1) 19 days ago. Improvement needed now that he goes down the handicap route.

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 10/3, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 16 days ago, very slowly away. Enters calculations off the same mark here.

4/1
Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, soft, 9/2) 11 days ago. 5 lb rise fair enough and he's one of the more appealing contenders.

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 25/1, 7¾ lengths ninth of 12 to Ceilidh in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, soft) 11 days ago, finding little. Others more persuasive.

17/2
Lightly-raced maiden. 11/2, second of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft) 8 days ago, no match for winner. This stiffer track should be more suitable and she'll have an each-way chance if able to build on that improved effort.

Forecasts

Ratafia (10/3), Ceilidh (4/1), Diamondsinthesand (9/2), Ey Up Its Jazz (5/1), Willard Creek (8/1), Kalama Sunrise (17/2), Local Bay (10/1), Spanish Mane (12/1), Ebury (16/1), Big Narstie (16/1), Solar Portrait (33/1), Lincoln Red (33/1), Say Grace (40/1), Minack (50/1), Grey Rosetta (80/1), Beanie Blue (100/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to EY UP ITS JAZZ, who was a winner over 6f on his sole previous visit here during the spring and he found just one too good off this mark at Thirsk last week. Provided the ground remains on the slow side, the 4-y-o will surely be there or thereabouts. Spanish Mane is 2-3 at this course and will be a threat if able to bounce back from a couple of relatively low-key efforts. Recent Ffos Las winner Ceilidh also has claims, along with Diamondsinthesand and Kalama Sunrise.
