7/1

Fair form. Looked a little rusty making handicap debut after 6 months off when sixth of 12 at Haydock (7f, good) 13 days ago and should be sharper now. First attempt at 1m.

American State²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: P Owens| OR: 70

Fair form all 4 starts in maiden/novices on AW and appeals as a potential improver in handicaps now switching to the grass.

Boubyan¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A M Balding| OR: 70

Forecasts

Boubyan (5/2), Manila Thriller (4/1), Something Splendid (7/1), Jarham (7/1), Castro Aurum (10/1), Virtue Patience (11/1), Orchard (11/1), Showyoutheropes (12/1), Mahogany Bay (12/1), Uppercase (12/1), American State (16/1), Dollyana (16/1), Emery Down (22/1), Mini Mac (25/1), Geo (33/1), Condotti (40/1), Tequila Star (40/1)

BOUBYAN's reappearance third at Windsor strongly suggests he's got a win in him from this mark. Billy Loughnane's mount Something Splendid may benefit from the drop back to 1m and is second choice ahead of American State, a potential improver in handicaps for the Patrick Owens yard.
