Bellator Bullet²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Rowan Scott| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 65| D

4/1

Improver sent handicapping/upped in trip, building on his good Newcastle second when scoring for the first time in an 8-runner handicap at Redcar (14f) last month. That ought not to prove his limit and he's respected again.

Form: 894-821

Rommie The Miracle¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 65| D

4/1

Steadily progressive filly who built on her handicap debut third at Beverley when winning 6-runner handicap at Redcar (17/2) 16 days ago, making all and keeping on when shaken up 2f out. Manner of that success suggests there could yet be more to come.

Deep Water Bay⁹^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 59

8/11

Limited impact in a quartet of 1m maiden/novice contests but proved a different proposition when comfortably opening his account on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 9 days ago. Further improvement highly likely over this longer trip on a more galloping track.

Form: 88001

14/1

Back on track having stepped up in distance, equipped with cheekpieces (retained here) when finishing third of 6 in handicap at Redcar over this trip (18/1) 16 days ago. However, she may have to settle for a minor role again here.

Form: 27-5743

Pure Theory¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 62

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden who ran to a similar level as previously when fifth of 8 in 12f handicap at Wolverhampton (18/1) 16 days ago, travelling well in second for a long way but failing to see out the trip. That has to be a concern now her stamina is tested further.

Form: 047-35

Yes Honey⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: P J McDonald| T: James Horton| OR: 62

28/1

Promise on second of 3 starts in maiden/novice company but well held when seventh of 10 on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 73 days ago. Steps up even further in trip now and this ought to reveal more.

Form: 8-407

(6)

Brave Emerald¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 60

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden who wasn't ideally placed when finishing fifth behind Rommie The Miracle on handicap debut at Redcar (14f) 16 days ago. Remains early days with him and surprise where he not capable of better.

Form: 6365

Jester Queen⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Joanna Mason| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 48

100/1

Limited impact in handful of starts for Jamie Osborne and similar story in pair of starts for present yard, finishing 7th of 9 in handicap at Brighton (40/1) 44 days ago. Much more needed.

Form: 750-867

Forecasts

Deep Water Bay (8/11), Bellator Bullet (4/1), Rommie The Miracle (4/1), Maywedance (14/1), Brave Emerald (16/1), Pure Theory (25/1), Sovereign Applause (25/1), Yes Honey (28/1), Jester Queen (100/1)

DEEP WATER BAY proved a different proposition when winning on handicap debut over 12f at Wolverhampton 9 days ago and, with further progress anticipated now his stamina is tested further, he rates the one to beat again. Rommie The Miracle has shown steady progress over staying trips, winning convincingly at Redcar last time, while Bellator Bullet who was also successful at that venue on his most recent start shouldn't be underestimated either.
