Combustion³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 55| D

11/10

Offered little in novice/maidens but progressive in classified contests since the turn of the year, best effort yet when bringing up the hat-trick at Chelmsford (6f) 5 weeks ago, by 1¾ lengths from Agent Mayfair. No surprise to see him highly competitive again on handicap debut.

Form: 8/90-111

Silky Robin²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: Brian Toomey| OR: 54| BF

17/2

Found only one too good in 6f handicaps at Chelmsford/Wolverhampton earlier this year before a poor effort when ninth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 20 days ago. Drawn wider than ideal on this occasion.

Form: 74-6229

Piperstown¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rossa Ryan| T: K Frost| OR: 54| D

4/1

Brought up a quick-fire hat-trick at Wolverhampton in February and not far off his best when respectable fifth of 9 in handicap back at that venue (6.1f) 16 days ago. Not out of things re-united with Rossa Ryan.

Form: 611145

Mehmo^p¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Paddy Bradley| T: M J Attwater| OR: 53

25/1

Stepped up a little with each start for present stable, good fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 16 days ago, keeping on when short of room final 100 yds and unlucky not to finish closer. Each-way claims again kept to this trip.

Form: 8546-34

(3)

Agent Mayfair^p³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: A W Carroll| OR: 53

15/2

Winner at Southwell in February. Good 1¾ lengths second of 11 to Combustion in minor event (15/2) at Chelmsford City (6f) 34 days ago, headed final 1f and no extra. Can make his presence felt again from a handy draw.

Form: 63-6312

(4)

Colorada Dancer²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Charles Bishop| T: K Jewell| OR: 53

33/1

Returned to form under a change of tactics when third at Kempton (7f) in February but faced competition upfront and ran poorly when last of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 18/1) 20 days ago. Reverts to sprinting now.

Form: 048-030

(9)

Lynwood Lad¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: T P Queally| T: G & J Moore| OR: 50| D

25/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. Sixth of 9 in minor event back at that venue (7.2f, 5/2) 17 days ago, racing freely and weakening final 100 yds. Not discounted returned to handicaps.

Form: 957-316

Miss Moonshine^p1¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: B R Millman| OR: 49| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 12/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 16 days ago, keeping on. Cheekpieces on 1st time and possibilities again under Hollie Doyle.

Form: 749243

(7)

Lilkian¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Liam Wright⁽⁵⁾| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 47| CD

11/1

4-time C&D winner. Twenty three runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 11 in minor event (11/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 13 days ago, merely plugging on. Not taken lightly.

Form: 6-24577

(8)

Don't Fight It^b³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: S M Levey| T: J & S Best| OR: 45

28/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2022 but did show benefit of a recent run when creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (18/1) at Kempton (6f) 37 days ago, no extra final 1f. Each-way claims.

Form: 6293-84

(2)

Barnsnape Boy⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 45

40/1

Maiden who fared better than previously this year from a less-than-ideal track position when fourth of 9 in minor event (16/1) at this course (7f, AW) 63 days ago. However, more needed if he's to feature back in handicap company.

Form: 687-404

Forecasts

Combustion (11/10), Piperstown (4/1), Agent Mayfair (15/2), Silky Robin (17/2), Lilkian (11/1), Miss Moonshine (16/1), Mehmo (25/1), Lynwood Lad (25/1), Don't Fight It (28/1), Colorada Dancer (33/1), Barnsnape Boy (40/1)

COMBUSTION has been in fine form at a lower level, posting his best effort yet when bringing up the hat-trick over this trip at Chelmsford 5 weeks ago. He rates a big player from this sort of mark on handicap debut and can get the 4-timer up. Miss Moonshine, Agent Mayfair and Piperstown are others fancied to be thereabouts.
