40/1

Course winner. Last of 12 in handicap at Leicester (11.8f, good to firm, 100/1) 17 days ago. Needs to bounce back in a major way.

Form: 1268-00

Clear Storm⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: N J Hawke| OR: 69| BF

16/1

Winner at Nottingham in May. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm) 54 days ago. First run for yard after leaving William Haggas. Solid claims.

Form: 3-31523

Carpathian¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J Ferguson| OR: 69

5/6

Good second of 10 in handicap (9/2) at this course (11f) 16 days ago. Expected to be bang there once again off just a 1 lb higher mark.

Birkin²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: K Shoemark| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 67

7/2

Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in novice at this C&D (6/1) 21 days ago. In good hands and may well take a step forward now handicapping but she will certainly need to in order to emerge on top.

Form: 667

(7)

Tuneful¹⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 66| BF

5/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, excellent second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 7/4) when last seen in February. Looks sure to benefit from this stiffer test and she will have every chance if taking to this surface.

Form: 877-2

(3)

Sapphire Sirocco⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Paddy Bradley| T: P Phelan| OR: 60

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, sixth of 13 in maiden at this course (11f) 77 days ago. Possible that she will be seen in a better light now handicapping.

Form: 0-96

Forecasts

Carpathian (5/6), Birkin (7/2), Tuneful (5/1), Sapphire Sirocco (14/1), Clear Storm (16/1), Ghost Story (18/1), Bluenose Belle (40/1)

There should be better to come from TUNEFUL, who was doing her best work at the finish when runner-up over 9.5f at Wolverhampton last time. She is taken to go one better this time, with Carpathian likely to emerge as the main danger ahead of Clear Storm.
