11/2

Balqaa⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 49| D

15/8

Twenty four runs since last win in 2022 but she shaped well when close third of 13 in C&D handicap 8 days ago, just failing after meeting trouble. Leading claims.

9/2, respectable fourth of 9 in classified event at Newcastle (7f) 38 days ago, never nearer. Can make presence felt.

Mist Rollin In^b⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: D Carroll| OR: 53

7/1

Only eighth of 12 in handicap at Redcar (9f, good to firm) 44 days ago but claims on his runner-up effort at Wetherby (1m) prior to that. Less exposed than a lot of these.

Form: 079-328

Storm Asset²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: D Shaw| OR: 45

11/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Never a threat when fourth of 10 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good to firm, 66/1) 23 days ago but the return to 1m should suit him.

Forecasts

Balqaa (15/8), Back From Dubai (5/1), Top Button (11/2), Mist Rollin In (7/1), Eagle Landed (17/2), Shaka (10/1), Storm Asset (11/1), Nasneen (14/1), Miss Billie (16/1), Inexplicable (33/1), Rainbow Mirage (150/1), Lady's Charm (150/1)

Although BALQAA's long losing run hardly makes her one for maximum faith she'd have surely won here last week with more luck in running and gets the vote off the same mark. Shaka arrives in form and is feared most ahead of Nasneen, who should benefit from the return to 1m having been taken off her feet over 6f at Catterick last week.
