8/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 9/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 23 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Needs treating as though still in form and return to 6f will suit. Blinkers off.

Beauen Arrows¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: A J Farragher| T: M J Attwater| OR: 50

Forecasts

Diamondsinthesand (10/3), Sisters In The Sky (4/1), Phoenix Star (13/2), Porfin (15/2), Man On A Mission (8/1), Due Date (8/1), Holbache (12/1), Diamond Dreamer (12/1), Princess Naomi (14/1), One Hart (14/1), Beauen Arrows (40/1)

PHOENIX STAR is back in good order, and with an excellent-value claimer on again, he's just about the most persuasive option. Due Date is up 7 lb for his Wolverhampton win last week but he needs considering, with Man On A Mission another of interest back over 6f.
