15/2

John Kirkup⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 45

14/1

Parr Fire²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: B Haslam| OR: 46

10/1

Sole victory came on debut back in 2022. Hasn't built on her encouraging seasonal/stable debut, eighth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Thirsk (6f, good) 24 days ago. However, she's not written off at this level.

Form: 379-588

Rockin Rosa^p³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 49| CD

10/3

Only win came at this C&D last summer. Run best excused when twelfth of 14 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 11/1) 36 days ago, not ideally drawn. In good heart previously so she's one to note dropped in grade.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Ben Robinson| T: D Thompson| OR: 44

25/1

Shaka¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Elle-May Croot⁽⁷⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 49

9/2

Produced his best effort when ½-length second of 9 to Split Elevens in minor event (7/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 12 days ago, albeit suited by way race developed. Remains a maiden but he enters calculations.

Form: 83U752

Spanish Saint²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: D Nolan| T: N G Richards| OR: 46

22/1

Fit from his hurdling debut, never a threat when eighth of 14 in minor event at Ayr (8f, good to firm, 25/1) 20 days ago. Has something to find as he makes tapeta debut.

Form: 0/797-8

Forecasts

Split Elevens (2/1), Rockin Rosa (10/3), Shaka (9/2), Barossa (15/2), Parr Fire (10/1), John Kirkup (14/1), Bernie The Bear (16/1), See My Baby Jive (22/1), Spanish Saint (22/1), Secret Daay (25/1), Storm Master (50/1)

SPLIT ELEVENS backed up his previous effort when winning at Wolverhampton 12 days ago and he can continue his good run of form to land the hat-trick. The main danger could be Rockin Rosa, who is worth another chance having been left poorly placed on her latest outing, with Shaka also considered.
