10/3, career best when winning 13-runner C&D handicap 23 days ago. A 4 lb rise looks fair. One to consider for McGuinness.

9/2
One win from 27 Flat runs. Twenty one runs since last win in 2023. 5/1, respectable 2¼ lengths sixth of 14 to Hasiyna over C&D 37 days ago, left poorly placed. Interesting with Billy Lee taking over from an apprentice.

Forecasts

I'm Spartacus (4/1), Winemaker (4/1), Velvet Skies (9/2), Devil's Angel (13/2), James Henry (7/1), Rattletheonionbag (17/2), Dream Today (11/1), Happy For Evva (14/1), Macadam's Rock (20/1), Hasiyna (22/1), Moonhall Lass (40/1), Hero Of The Hour (40/1), Gimmieminnie (66/1)

Verdict

VELVET SKIES had an excuse last time and is given another chance to confirm the promise of her penultimate C&D second with Billy Lee taking the ride this time. Dream Today is at the veteran stage but is still a potential class act at this level and is feared most ahead of last-time-out C&D scorer I'm Spartacus.

  1. Velvet Skies9/2
  2. Dream Today11/1
  3. I'm Spartacus4/1
