Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, matched previous best when fourth of 9 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) 23 days ago. Switch to handicaps in her favour now and respected dropped back to the minimum trip.
|
Winner at Lingfield in February. 40/1, last of 15 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and return to all-weather may see her in a better light with her rider taking off a handy 7 lb.
|
Sergei Prokofiev gelding who was very easy to back having first start on turf when well held tenth of 11 in handicap (28/1) at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Previous AW exploits contained promise however, and it's far too soon to be writing him off.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good) 26 days ago, pulling hard and weakening over 1f out. Will need to settle better if he's to figure here.
|
Havana Gold gelding who enhanced his juvenile form on return from seven months off when close-up seventh of 8 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm) 5 days ago. More needed though if he's to defy this mark, though.
|
Winner at Lingfield in April. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, good to firm, 11/2) 11 days ago, not ideally placed having raced on outer flank. Fancied to be thereabouts returned to all-weather.
|
Promise on first 2 runs in maidens on all-weather last year but returned with very low-key efforts in pair of turf handicaps in recent months. Fitting of a visor/return to all-weather needs to bring about a revival.
|
Kodiac gelding who shaped better than the bare result on qualifying run despite finishing last of 9 in novice at this course (6.1f) in December (final start for Craig Lidster). Appeals as a likely improver now handicapping and market confidence would look interesting. Had wind op.
|
Well backed with tongue strap on for first time when winning 8-runner C&D handicap in April. Couldn't replicate that performance when third of 7 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm) 26 days ago but a return to this track/trip can likely see him in a better light.

Forecasts
Keep The Gold (7/2), Marajito (4/1), Master Zack (5/1), She Went Whoosh (11/2), El Cobre Fuego (8/1), Commendation (10/1), Sundiata Keita (10/1), Nordic Games (14/1), The Voominator (16/1)
It could be worth giving another chance to C&D winner MASTER ZACK who didn't find things panning out ideally over on turf at Bath last time and the return to a bare 5f now may well suit ideally. She Went Whoosh and El Cobre Fuego may emerge as the chief dangers.
- Master Zack5/1
