100/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 8 in maiden (8/1) at Chelmsford City (7f). Off 6 months ahead of this debut for new yard and sizeable step forward needed now handicapping

9/1

C&D winner in April. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Brighton (8f, heavy, 9/1) 14 days ago, doing too much too soon. Not taken lightly.

Genta^t³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 62

18/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 6 in novice (13/2) at Newcastle (7.1f) 30 days ago. Looks up against it now pitched into a handicap.

Form: 533

Clyde Bay^t¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 60| BF

28/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap (9/2) at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Significantly up in trip and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 755-P86

(8)

Treasure Bay¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Mark Gillard| OR: 57

125/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 11/1, last of 3 in novice at this course (5.7f, heavy) 10 days ago. Significantly back up in trip for this handicap debut and needs to raise his game.

Form: 0743

(2)

King of The Dance^p⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Aidan Keeley| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 53| D

20/1

Good 2¼ lengths second of 12 to Albus Anne in handicap at this C&D (good, 40/1) 47 days ago. Live each-way chance.

Form: 667642

(9)

Eye Of The Water^v¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Joe Leavy⁽³⁾| T: R Harris| OR: 48| CD

8/1

C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Visored for 1st time, 8 lengths fourth of 10 to Ciotog in handicap (11/2) at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago. Clearly has work to do.

Forecasts

Albus Anne (5/4), Ciotog (9/4), Eye Of The Water (8/1), Darvel (9/1), Genta (18/1), King of The Dance (20/1), Clyde Bay (28/1), I Can't Believe (33/1), First Greyed (50/1), Barnsnape Boy (80/1), Radiant Angel (100/1), Treasure Bay (125/1)

CIOTOG did the job well over this C&D recently and he has a strong chance of going in again under a penalty. The one most likely to serve up a serious challenge is the in-form Albus Anne, while Darvel and King of The Dance both make each-way appeal.
