See That Storm³⁰

5/4

Gambled-on 11/10, won 11-runner maiden at this C&D on debut 30 days ago, always holding on. That form probably doesn't amount to much but he's open to improvement and good chance he can make it 2-2.

Form: 1-

Lavender Hill Mob⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Callum Shepherd| T: M L W Bell

10/11

Promising sort. Improved when fifth of 11 at this C&D (12/1) 70 days ago, still green and late headway. Can do even better and this is a thin novice.

Form: 65-

Mr Influence¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hannon

33/1

Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 11 in maiden (125/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 17 days ago, hampered. Probably one for handicaps.

18/1

Cityscape gelding. Brother to useful 1m/9f winner City of York and half-brother to 5f winner Dalby Forest. Dam winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f winner). From good family for connections and starts out in a winnable contest.

Bint Havana Gold²⁰¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: George Rooke| T: R Hughes

25/1

Twice-raced maiden. Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip. Has hinted at ability and she could do better in handicaps when the time comes.

Form: 74-

Sense Of Charm²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston

28/1

22/1, eleventh of 13 at Kempton (8f) on debut 22 days ago, little fluency and always behind.

Forecasts

Lavender Hill Mob (10/11), See That Storm (5/4), Thorntonledale Max (18/1), Escape The Grape (18/1), Bint Havana Gold (25/1), Sense Of Charm (28/1), Mr Influence (33/1), Calshot Spit (50/1)

Not a strong novice and SEE THAT STORM has a good chance to make it 2-2 if he can build on the form he showed when scoring here on debut. There is more to come from Lavender Hill Mob and he's feared, while Thorntonledale Max could go well first time up.
