7/1

11/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, soft) 26 days ago. Back to a potentially lenient mark and can't be completely dismissed.

22/1

First run since leaving David O'Meara when bit below form sixth of 16 in handicap at Wetherby (10f, good to firm, 33/1) 22 days ago. Not easy to make a case for.

Form: 66608-6

9/2

Fourth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 10/3) 22 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Can make a bigger impact down in grade, although would need a solid pace (rarely settles).

Form: 1447-44

9/2

9/1

3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in April. 20/1, last of 14 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Should benefit from the return to this track.

Form: 410-140

Forecasts

Blueflagflyinghigh (4/1), Silver Gunn (9/2), Bosc Girl (9/2), Tango Man (5/1), Cockalorum (7/1), Ey Up Its The Boss (8/1), Where's Jeff (9/1), Eeetee (22/1)

SILVER GUNN has run with credit in a higher grade of handicap on both outings this season and, if he can settle to some degree, he's fancied to capitalise on a handy mark at the possible expense of Blueflagflyinghigh, who is the type to benefit from first-time cheekpieces. Bosc Girl is also considered.
