(1)

Orbaan^t¹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: T Eaves| T: D O'Meara| OR: 87| CD

9/2

7/1, improved on recent efforts to win 17-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Was well positioned there but still merits plenty of respect.

Form: 0-63901

(9)

Barley^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Phil Dennis| T: T D Easterby| OR: 78| CD

5/1

11/2, improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago, driven clear. Needs to be right back to his best to defy a rise.

Form: 6-30401

(2)

The Cookstown Cafu^p²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Shane Gray| T: K A Ryan| OR: 74| D

6/1

Blinkered for 1st time, eleventh of 16 in handicap at York (7f, good to soft, 6/1) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Back to a potentially lenient mark.

Form: 080-060

(8)

Lahab¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Harrison Shaw| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 74

6/1

14/1, creditable 5¼ lengths seventh of 17 to Orbaan in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago, left with too much to do. Can get involved if the race is run to suit.

Form: 270537

(3)

Detective^b¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: P Mulrennan| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 72| CD

9/2

22/1, respectable 7 lengths eighth of 17 to Orbaan in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago, slowly away. Not completely dismissed.

Form: 47-0208

(7)

Cisco Disco^v²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Ryan Sexton| T: R A Fahey| OR: 68| D

14/1

Creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at York (8.8f, soft, 40/1) 21 days ago. Visor back on. Dropped to a handy mark and there was more encouragement in latest effort.

Form: 0/806-77

(4)

Classy Boy³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁵⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 77WS

7/1

Winner at Beverley in April. Seventh of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Musselburgh (9f, good) 35 days ago, possibly amiss. Looks the pace angle and could feature if he's back on track.

Form: 322-137

(5)

Secret World⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Archie Young⁽⁷⁾| T: C Johnston| OR: 75

15/2

Third of 5 in handicap (10/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Not the most straightforward and isn't assured to be in the same form.

Form: 21-3703

Forecasts

Orbaan (9/2), Detective (9/2), Barley (5/1), The Cookstown Cafu (6/1), Lahab (6/1), Helter Skelter (6/1), Classy Boy (7/1), Secret World (15/2), Cisco Disco (14/1), Carnival Zain (16/1)

LAHAB was considerably better than the result when a staying-on seventh behind Orbaan in the Carlisle Bell 10 days ago and, if he can sit a bit handier this time, he could be capable of turning the tables with his old rival. Barley won the consolation race at the same meeting and deserves respect.
