Lady Celia⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss Amy Collier| T: A D Brown| OR: 70| C| D

15/2

Two wins from 6 runs this year, the latest at this course in July. 13/2, sixth of 7 in handicap back here (5f, good) 7 days ago. That wasn't one of her better efforts but she's 1-1 under Amy Collier and will have a chance if on-song.

Bay Breeze^p⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Mrs Emily Roberts| T: T D Easterby| OR: 70| D

6/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Creditable 3 lengths third of 9 to Inanna in handicap at this C&D (good, 10/1) 8 days ago. Each-way shout if able to back that effort up but one or two of these appeal more from a win point of view.

Hour By Hour²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Miss Hannah Crawford⁽⁵⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 66| CD

2/1

11/8, improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at this C&D (soft) 26 days ago. 5 lb rise manageable and he has to be taken seriously.

Inanna⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 10-8| J: Mr Eireann Cagney| T: J S Goldie| OR: 59| CD

15/8

Improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap (9/2) at this C&D (good) 8 days ago. Shade more will be needed under a penalty but she's one to consider nonetheless.

So Grateful³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Ms S Brotherton| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 60| BF| D

17/2

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 11/4) 35 days ago, well positioned. Just 1-28 on turf and others make more appeal for win purposes, for all that he has the assistance of Serena Brotherton.

Ballyare^b,t⁶³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Miss Margot Scudamore⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 54| D

28/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 17/2, sixth of 7 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good to firm) 63 days ago. Blinkers back on. Opposable.

Endowed^p,t³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Miss Imogen Mathias⁽⁵⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 50| D

22/1

Fifth of 9 in handicap (20/1) at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) 31 days ago and this 7-y-o again looks vulnerable.

Form: 779-765

Forecasts

Inanna (15/8), Hour By Hour (2/1), Bay Breeze (6/1), Lady Celia (15/2), So Grateful (17/2), Woobay (10/1), Endowed (22/1), Ballyare (28/1)

Though below par over 5f here last week, LADY CELIA is of strong interest reunited with Amy Collier, who partnered the mare to success on their sole previous collaboration at Carlisle in May, and with the recent rain in her favour (the 7-y-o has a good record on good to soft/soft). She will face stern resistance, though, with last-time-out C&D winners Hour By Hour and Inanna both feared greatly.
