Profitable Edge^p³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Connor Beasley| T: T D Barron| OR: 72| D

3/1

Ex-Irish filly who struck at second time of asking for this yard when easily seeing off 3 rivals at Ripon (5f) in August. Good third at Chester next time and latest York sixth came in a big field. Respected now switching to AW.

Form: 46-2136

Starstriker^h⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J Ferguson| OR: 69| BF

4/1

Ran twice in the US at 2. Went close in 5f novice at Windsor on return from 15 months off for a new yard in August. Not in the same form when a well-held third at Lingfield (AW) 16 days later but still an interesting runner on handicap debut under Oisin Murphy.

Form: 65-23

Ange De L'Amour³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Egan| T: R Brisland| OR: 68

16/1

Nottingham maiden winner at 2. Respectable third of 8 in handicap at Bath (5f, firm, 14/1) on belated reappearance 34 days ago. Claims if she can build on that.

Form: 73107-3

Sacred Jewel^h¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: P Mulrennan| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 64| D

7/1

Has been unable to make an impact this season. Remains to be seen if a switch to AW improvers matters.

Forecasts

Triple Jaye (3/1), Profitable Edge (3/1), Rodborough (3/1), Starstriker (4/1), Sugar Hill Babe (6/1), Sacred Jewel (7/1), Lotus Rose (15/2), Ange De L'Amour (16/1), Azucena (20/1)

Perhaps STARSTRIKER simply found her latest below-form third coming too soon after her good comeback second at Windsor 16 days earlier and she's given another chance now handicapping after a short break. Rodborough arrives at the top of her game and rates an obvious danger. Profitable Edge has made a good start for the Barrons and should also have a part to play if taking to this new surface.
