(10)

Squealer²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 93| D

9/1

Placed in Bahrain over the winter. Respectable eighth of 17 in handicap at York (5f, good, 33/1) on British return 25 days ago, never nearer. Respected for a Yorkshire stable no stranger to success here.

Form: 927-278

(2)

Thunder Moor^p,t¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: G Boughey| OR: 91| D

40/1

Won twice in Bahrain in February but below par in 2 outings back in Britain, finishing fourth of 5 over C&D latterly.

Form: 50-1174

(1)

Isle Of Lismore²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: K Shoemark| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 89| CD

8/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Ascot in May. 4/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Should go well.

Form: 19-3312

(7)

Mountain Peak⁴⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 9-11| J: Tom Marquand| T: E Walker| OR: 88| D

14/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Epsom (5f, good) on reappearance 48 days ago. Entitled to be sharper now.

Form: 07925-6

(9)

Navello^p,t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: W Buick| T: G Boughey| OR: 87| D

12/1

Successful on AW in March. Second of 14 at Newmarket under William Buick next time and claims if a lesser effort here since can be forgiven. Buick returns to the saddle.

Form: 860-125

(6)

Woolhampton^b²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B R Millman| OR: 85| D

5/1

Latest win at Ascot (5f) in May. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 28/1) 23 days ago. Oisin Murphy often a good booking for the stable.

Form: 247-417

(4)

Good Earth²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Connor Planas⁽³⁾| T: M Herrington| OR: 85| D

16/1

Down the field on all 3 outings this year but he wasn't beaten that far at York last time and is starting to look well treated again. A dangerous one to discount.

Form: 100-000

(3)

Rocking Ends²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: J Mitchell| T: Tom Clover| OR: 83| CD

9/4

First run since leaving Brett Johnson when winning 11-runner C&D handicap (good to firm, 5/2) 21 days ago. Merits consideration.

Form: 87-9031

(8)

Dusky Lord²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: S C Williams| OR: 82| D

25/1

Ninth of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm, 33/1) on reappearance 28 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot.

Form: 09000-9

(5)

Antiphon⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Jack Doughty⁽⁷⁾| T: M Murphy & M Keady| OR: 78| CD

4/1

C&D winner in April. Creditable fourth of 14 in Epsom Dash (5f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 041924

Forecasts

Rocking Ends (9/4), Antiphon (4/1), Woolhampton (5/1), Isle Of Lismore (8/1), Squealer (9/1), Navello (12/1), Mountain Peak (14/1), Good Earth (16/1), Dusky Lord (25/1), Thunder Moor (40/1)

ROCKING ENDS has only been nudged up 2 lb for his C&D success 3 weeks ago and it may not prevent him making it 2-2 for new trainer Tom Clover. Squealer was a bit of an eyecatcher at York last month and is second choice ahead of Isle of Lismore and Navello.
