13/2

Won on AW last November and dispelled a handful of lesser efforts having been given a chance by the assessor when second of 7 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Claims if he can back that up.

Three Platoon^b,t⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: R Menzies| OR: 55

9/2

One win from 23 Flat runs. 11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at this course (9.9f, good to firm) 8 days ago, not convincing with his effort off the bridle. Still, he's capable of getting involved.

Eighth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW, 25/1) 6 days ago, racing off the pace and always behind. Had produced best effort to date when third on turf at that venue previously.

Bamboo Bay⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 46| D

28/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Off 7 months/first run since leaving Philip Kirby when sixth of 8 in minor event (15/2) at Musselburgh (12.5f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Others make greater appeal.

Form: 54598-6

A Day To Dream^b1⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Harry Russell| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 45| D

20/1

Successful over this trip at Thirsk early on last year and he comes here having finished placed on 2 of her last 3 starts over hurdles in recent weeks. No forlorn hope returned to the level with first-time blinkers applied.

Form: 4655-68

Jamih^p⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 9-3| J: Joanna Mason| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 45| D

5/2

Comes here on a lengthy losing run but did turn in best effort of the season when second of 11 in handicap at this course (9.9f, good to firm) 8 days ago, not clear run over 2f out and keeping on. Well proven at this longer trip and he's a player with a repeat.

Form: 9-02672

Gaazooo¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Laura Pearson| T: S A Harris| OR: 45

150/1

Little in the way of solid form over hurdles/on Flat and he looks set for another struggle here.

Form: 97U/07-7

Hope Joanna⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 46

22/1

Offered little in handful of starts as a juvenile and fared no better after 7 months off when sixth of 9 in handicap at Ripon (8f, soft, 11/1) 61 days ago. Significant step up in trip needs to have positive effect now.

Form: 8559-6

Rubio De Oro^p,t²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: M E Sowersby| OR: 45

100/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, first run since leaving Marco Botti when sixth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good to firm, 50/1) 22 days ago. Much more needed.

Jamih (5/2), Dr Rio (4/1), Three Platoon (9/2), A Poet's Secret (13/2), Grifter (15/2), Inbetweenus (9/1), A Day To Dream (20/1), Hope Joanna (22/1), Bamboo Bay (28/1), Rubio De Oro (100/1), Gaazooo (150/1)

JAMIH produced his best effort of the season returned to ground on the fast side of good when runner-up over shorter here 8 days ago and, fully effective at this longer trip, he looks one of the likelier types from his basement mark. Recent Bath second A Poet's Secret and Dr Rio, who finished a place behind the selection last time, is another to consider.
