Wheels Of Fire³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Joe Leavy| T: R Hannon| OR: 80| D

11/4

Won only career start at 5f (Lingfield AW) last August and ran well when second at Southwell in April. Weakened into ninth of 16 in handicap at Ascot (6f) at 8/1 35 days ago after disputing lead. Drop back to 5f could suit now and one to consider.

Form: 315-629

Priapos³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Jack Dace⁽⁷⁾| T: R M Beckett| OR: 79

3/1

Won novice last June and has shown promise in handicaps despite some inconsistency. Third of 16 in a handicap at Ascot over 6f (18/1) 35 days ago, shaped as if would come on for the run after 6 months off. Open to further improvement dropping to 5f and has the physique to develop well this season.

Form: 14047-3

50/1

Won a novice race at Lingfield last July. Finished last of 10 here (80/1) 20 days ago after 10 months off. This should reveal more.

Walnut⁷¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Ray Dawson| T: T Kent| OR: 74| D

5/1

Showed promise on debut when third of 8 in a maiden at Wolverhampton (33/1). Won a 5f maiden at Chelmsford 71 days ago, making all in a field of 6 at 7/4. Makes handicap/turf debut today and could have more to offer.

Form: 31

Tiva^t1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: D O'Meara| OR: 74| D

11/1

Won a novice race at Hamilton Park readily in May. Third of 8 in a handicap at Nottingham (13/2) 12 days ago, slowly into stride and making headway over 1f out before keeping on until final 100 yards. Wears tongue strap for the first time today and can improve further.

Form: 56-13

Fort Augustus⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 73

15/2

Second in handicap at Kempton in October but fifth of 11 in novice at Kempton (7/2) 53 days ago, weakening after racing freely. Drop in trip not certain to suit.

Form: 54327-5

Be An Angel¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: George Wood| T: B R Millman| OR: 71

16/1

Pont Neuf^b¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 71| D

20/1

Modest form with 9 runs since last win. Finished third of 9 in a handicap at Leicester (9/1) 10 days ago, getting back on track in first-time blinkers. Could build on that.

Form: 55-5793

(5)

Silver Wraith³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Saffie Osborne| T: Miss E C Lavelle| OR: 70

7/1

Caught the eye on debut at Sandown (5f) and shaped promisingly when sixth of 12 in a novice race at Windsor (22/1) 32 days ago. Makes handicap debut back at 5f and remains open to improvement.

Form: 4-76

(7)

Hint Of Humour¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Jack Doughty| T: A W Carroll| OR: 62

20/1

Second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (10/1) 17 days ago, producing her best effort following a 5-month absence. Tends to race freely and may be better suited to this 5f trip. This is a tough handicap, though.

Form: 9753-32

Forecasts

Wheels Of Fire (11/4), Priapos (3/1), Walnut (5/1), Silver Wraith (7/1), Fort Augustus (15/2), Tiva (11/1), Be An Angel (16/1), Pont Neuf (20/1), Hint Of Humour (20/1), Desdemona (50/1)

PRIAPOS shaped with promise when third at Ascot and looks open to further improvement dropping to 5f. Walnut made a taking impression when making all at Chelmsford and looks dangerous on his first start in handicaps. Tiva has progressed with each run and can build on her recent Nottingham third, while Wheels of Fire could appreciate returning to the minimum trip after running well at Southwell.
