Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 55

12/1

Seventh of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Bath (5f, heavy) 23 days ago. Might strip fitter for that but it's a while since he's shown his form.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: S D Bowen⁽⁵⁾| T: D Donovan| OR: 53| D

2/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 12/1, below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Leicester (6f, soft) 3 days ago. Partnered by good-value claimer with blinkers on for the first time, so worthy of interest down in grade.

12/1

C&D winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 8 in handicap (22/1) at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago, doing too much too soon. Others more persuasive.

Form: 730947

(6)

My Kind Of Girl²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Jack Doughty⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

17/2

Forecasts

One Hart (2/1), Voodoo Ray (5/1), Confederation (13/2), My Kind Of Girl (17/2), Bernard Spierpoint (9/1), Scramble (9/1), My Genghis (12/1), Autumn Flight (12/1), Firenze Rosa (16/1), My Bonnie Lassie (33/1), Peggoty (100/1)

A tricky race to weigh up but SCRAMBLE is arguably the only one that arrives in form having run respectably at Kempton last time, so she gets the tentative vote over One Hart, who drops in grade with blinkers on for the first time. Voodoo Ray is a definite player if fit for this return.
