Mach Ten^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 72

8/1

14/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Chester (12.3f, good) 19 days ago, going in snatches and merely passing beaten rivals. Steps up further in trip now.

Form: 45-2644

Shadowofyoursmile³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: C Fellowes| OR: 68

8/1

From a good family and fared a little better than previously when third of 5 on qualifying run in 5-runner maiden at Doncaster 32 days ago. Switch to handicaps/longer trip rate a plus now and market confidence behind her would look significant.

Form: 9-73

Filibustering¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 66

3/1

Clear signs of ability in 3 starts on the AW during the winter and improved back from a break upped to 1¾m for his handicap debut at Wetherby (soft) in April. Easy to excuse his subsequent Chester run (shuffled right back 3f out) and remains one to be interested in.

Form: 54-026

Oh What Fun^b1,t1²⁰⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Beasley| T: E Bethell| OR: 65

7/2

Brought along gradually in trio of novice/maiden events at around 1m for Harry & Roger Charlton in the autumn. Gelded/switched yards ahead of return and feasible to expect improvement now handicapping over this longer trip. Blinkers on 1st time.

Form: 806-

Made In China¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 58

16/1

Showed ability in handful of starts as a 2-y-o but has disappointed both starts on AW/turf upon returning this spring. Stamina is tested further now but others more persuasive.

Form: 6444-65

Little Venice⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Alex Jary⁽⁵⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 52

14/1

10/1, bit below form having raced keener than ideal when third of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good) 8 days ago, no extra final 1f. Others more persuasive.

Form: 048333

(5)

Candle Wax^b1¹⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Hayley Turner| T: W J Haggas| OR: 51

5/2

Son of Dubawi who finished down the field in trio of AW maidens late last year. However, represents top yard and feasible to think he can do better now handicapping (also gelded) upped markedly in trip. One to consider with blinkers enlisted.

Form: 006-

Forecasts

Candle Wax (5/2), Filibustering (3/1), Oh What Fun (7/2), Mach Ten (8/1), Shadowofyoursmile (8/1), Little Venice (14/1), Made In China (16/1)

The market should prove informative assessing the claims of a few here but FILIBUSTERING can easily have his latest run at Chester ignored and, having looked a sure-fire future winner when runner-up at Wetherby previously, he earns the vote. Candle Wax and Oh What Fun both appeal as likely improvers now handicapping/upped in trip and need considering, as does Shadowofyoursmile.
