11/1

Course winner. Latest win at Brighton in May. Just a respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (5/1) at Lingfield (7f, good) 24 days ago. Back up in trip.

Form: 244154

(2)

Renesmee¹²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: D Egan| T: Martin Dunne| OR: 65| CD

14/1

C&D winner. 11/2, seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Off 129 days and has a fair amount to prove at present back on turf.

Form: 00-4377

(4)

Anglo Saxson²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: P Owens| OR: 64| CD

13/2

Three-time C&D winner. 9/1, creditable sixth of 13 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Likely to give it another good go.

Form: 4314-36

(3)

Royal Velvet¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁵⁾| T: W J Knight| OR: 70

6/1

Latest win at Newcastle in April. Fifth of 7 in handicap (4/1) at Sandown (8f, soft) 19 days ago. Better expected on drying ground.

Form: 61-1755

(8)

Wonder Smile^t¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Harry Davies| T: H Palmer| OR: 69

4/1

Shaped as though still in good form when third of 10 in handicap (11/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 12 days ago, faring best of those held up. One to take very seriously tackling 1m for the first time.

Form: 723-823

(5)

Ihopeyoulike^v1,t¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Luke Catton⁽³⁾| T: I Mohammed| OR: 69

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Probably needed that reappearance and this will reveal more in a first-time visor.

Form: 5670-5

(10)

Salamanca City²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Coakley| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 68

9/4

Very good second of 9 in handicap (11/4) at this C&D (soft) 21 days ago, no match for winner but well clear of the rest. Looks ahead of her mark so claims are fairly obvious.

Form: 47-4532

(1)

Voyeur¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: C Johnston| OR: 66

28/1

Seventh of 8 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft, 12/1) 16 days ago, slowly away. Makes handicap debut and he's in the right hands to bounce back.

Form: 757

(9)

Maple^h²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 57

8/1

Well bred but hard to get excited by what he's achieved so far, fifth of 8 in handicap (10/3) at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Slight step up in trip can only help.

Form: 60-05

(6)

Greycee Bell^t1,p¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: William Cox| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 53

66/1

Cheekpieces on for first time, first run since leaving Barry Brennan when eighth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, soft, 22/1) 17 days ago. Tongue strap now added up in trip.

Form: 690-8

Forecasts

Salamanca City (9/4), Wonder Smile (4/1), Royal Velvet (6/1), Anglo Saxson (13/2), Maple (8/1), Dion Baker (11/1), Renesmee (14/1), Ihopeyoulike (16/1), Voyeur (28/1), Greycee Bell (66/1)

SALAMANCA CITY put 6 lengths between herself and the rest when finding only a subsequent winner too strong over C&D 3 weeks ago and on that evidence, she's capable of going one place better. Wonder Smile shaped well last time so is second choice, with Anglo Saxson rounding off the shortlist.
