Bella Bisbee¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Billy Loughnane| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 73

Moon Man³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: D O'Meara| OR: 72

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in maiden at Newcastle (6f, 16/1) 34 days ago. Needs to raise his game now pitched into a handicap but that's by no means impossible. Yard also saddles Indivar.

5/2

6/1, good third of 10 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, good) 8 days ago, running on. Cheekpieces on 1st time and he's a must for the shortlist.

28/1

Respectable fourth of 8 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, soft, 20/1) 17 days ago. Looks up against it.

Form: 443-674

(9)

Perianth¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S W Kelly| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 65| C

9/2

Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (7/1) at this course (6f, soft) 18 days ago, slowly away. 3 lb rise fair enough and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 63-61

Forecasts

Indivar (2/1), Hurricane Power (5/2), Perianth (9/2), Indication Court (9/2), Wonder Smile (5/1), Enpassant (7/1), Moon Man (8/1), Swordplay (12/1), Bella Bisbee (16/1), Novation (28/1)

The vote goes to WONDER SMILE, who produced his best effort yet when chasing home an improver from the Prescott yard at Salisbury three weeks ago. Perianth hit the target over 6f here last time and, with this step back up in trip unlikely to be an issue, he is a live contender. Hurricane Power completes the shortlist.
