Blue Hero^h²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Tyler Heard| T: A Wintle| OR: 55

Cuban Harry¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: D Tudhope| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 59| CD

3/1

Opened account over 8.7f here in September. Bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 15/2) 12 days ago and needs to settle better to stay this new trip.

Form: 649147

Speed Court⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Christian Howarth⁽³⁾| T: M Young| OR: 59

33/1

First run since leaving Harry Eustace when ninth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (66/1) 9 days ago, slowly away. Needs to build on that with cheekpieces removed.

(8)

Ultimate Sapphire²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 57

Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 14 in novice (200/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good) 28 days ago. Handicaps more suitable.

Form: 708

(2)

Cerulean Summer¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Morgan Cole⁽⁵⁾| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 55

13/2

Creditable second of 9 in handicap (8/1) at this C&D 17 days ago though slow starts are becoming the norm with her.

Form: 853302

(9)

Coloane^h²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: C Lee| T: Roger Fell| OR: 50

13/2

One win from 22 Flat runs. Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm, 9/1) 26 days ago, left with too much to do. That effort suggests she's in reasonable nick.

Form: 561605

Forecasts

Cuban Harry (3/1), Outrace (6/1), Paradoxical (6/1), Cerulean Summer (13/2), Coloane (13/2), Mykonos St John (17/2), Cariad (11/1), Persian Phoenix (14/1), Blue Hero (16/1), Ultimate Sapphire (25/1), Speed Court (33/1)

CARIAD is just 1 lb above her last successful mark and with this slight step up in trip expected to help her cause, she's just about the most appealing option. Blue Hero and Cerulean Summer are a couple of potential threats.
