City Landscape^b,t³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: D Egan| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 72

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden was swept aside by a fairly useful pair when 50/1, third of 6 in novice at Newcastle (10.2f) 34 days ago. Back down in trip and more needed on handicap debut.

Form: 373

(4)

Zarathos¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: David Probert| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 72

9/4

Hit the frame on four starts since debut including most recent short-head second of 9 to Antiquity in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 11/4) 16 days ago, just failing. Should give another good account.

Form: 74-332

(11)

Master Of Zest^b1⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tyler Heard| T: P Owens| OR: 72

33/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for first time when fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 42 days ago. Blinkers now fitted but doesn't look to have much in hand from this sort of mark.

Form: 530-5

(3)

Captain Harry¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: P J McDonald| T: A M Balding| OR: 71

6/1

Matched previous form when 7/2, creditable fifth of 10 in at Southwell (7.1f) on handicap debut 17 days ago. Bit to find but improvement not ruled out.

Form: 470-5

(5)

Antiquity¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 71| D

10/3

Landed the double when winning 9-runner handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 16 days ago by short head from Zarathos, despite conceding first run and hitting trouble in running. Showed a good attitude that day and can make a bold bid for the hat-trick.

Form: 162211

(8)

Private Island²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 70| D

15/2

Typical improver from this yard and made it 2-2 in handicaps when winning 12-runner race at Yarmouth (1m) earlier this month, always holding on. Further progress anticipated.

Form: 6-6711

(1)

Maywedance²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Harrison Shaw| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 69

66/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Below form when fifth of 6 in handicap at this course (10.2f, good, 33/1) 26 days ago. Down in trip and improvement needed.

Form: 527-5

(6)

Seed Investor⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: T Eaves| T: I Furtado| OR: 66

12/1

Cheekpieces fitted on first run since leaving Craig Lidster when fourth of 12 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft, 16/1) 9 days ago. Likely to be better for that run but this looks tougher.

Form: 7733-4

(10)

Harswell Ruby⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Jason Hart| T: Roger Fell| OR: 66

6/1

Only beaten by a fellow improver when 10/1, very good second of 12 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) 9 days ago, clear of rest. Bred to get the mile and is one to consider.

Form: 65253-2

(9)

Space Raider¹⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Sullivan| T: I Furtado| OR: 65

50/1

Typically took a strong hold when 13/2, fourth of 7 in nursery at Newcastle (7.1f), unsuited by drop in trip. Off 143 days. Has work to do on first run for yard after leaving Craig Lidster.

Forecasts

Zarathos (9/4), Antiquity (10/3), Harswell Ruby (6/1), Captain Harry (6/1), Private Island (15/2), Groundsman (8/1), Seed Investor (12/1), The Lost Canvas (14/1), Master Of Zest (33/1), City Landscape (33/1), Space Raider (50/1), Maywedance (66/1)

ANTIQUITY did well to win at Nottingham last time, showing a good attitude despite not everything panning out in his favour, and he's expected to make a bold bid for the hat-trick from 3 lb higher. Private Island looks a typical Sir Mark Prescott improver and looks a serious danger, while Harswell Ruby makes appeal on her first try over the mile.
