5/2

5/2, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at this course (5f, heavy) 10 days ago, comfortably. Will prove hard to beat under a penalty if in anything like the same form.

Fourth of 5 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm, 5/1) 58 days ago. Looks vulnerable for win purposes.

5/1

Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. 5/1, good third of 10 in handicap at Windsor (6f, heavy) 17 days ago. Will need to find improvement from somewhere if he's to get his head in front here but place possibilities nonetheless.

40/1

C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 14/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (5f, good to firm) 46 days ago. Now tried in a visor and will have an each-way chance if responding well to the new headgear.

Repartee^b,t³³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: George Downing| T: C Wallis| OR: 45| D

80/1

Twenty-seven runs since last win in 2020. Tongue strap on for 1st time, eighth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 50/1) 33 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form.

Form: 6-82978

Redshore City^p²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Aidan Keeley| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 45| D

11/1

One win from 31 Flat runs. 10/3, bit below form third of 8 in handicap at this course (5f, heavy) 21 days ago. No more than an each-way squeak.

Forecasts

Mintana (5/2), Hk Fourteen (11/4), Roman Spring (5/1), Fai Fai (6/1), Tres Chic (11/1), Redshore City (11/1), Midnight Flame (12/1), Katar (14/1), Irrelevant (33/1), We're Reunited (40/1), Repartee (80/1)

On the back of a thoroughly decisive success here 10 days ago, MINTANA, who is officially 2 lb well-in under a penalty, is likely to prove a very tough nut to crack. Fai Fai gets the nod ahead of We're Reunited and Roman Spring for forecast purposes.
