Star Anthem^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: C G Cox| OR: 99

7/2

Useful performer but has failed to make a significant impact in handicaps at Ascot and Goodwood this term. Eased another 2 lb but it doesn't look enough.

Form: 1843-79

Jouncy^v²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A M Balding| OR: 97

10/3

Group 2 placed as a juvenile. Respectable 4¾ lengths fifth of 7 to Fair Angellica in listed race at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 25/1) 21 days ago. Up in trip. Visor back on. Makes handicap debut for a top stable which does well here.

Form: 1725-55

Milford³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 94

7/2

Better effort this term when close third of 14 in handicap at York (7f, good) 31 days ago. Considered under Rodriguez.

Form: 0623-93

Frankies Dream^h¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: George Wood| T: J Candlish| OR: 84

9/2

Sixth win of an excellent first half of 2025 when getting up on the post in a 22-runner race at York (7f, firm) 14 days ago. Could still be on a good mark after a further 4 lb rise.

Form: 231251

Tattie Bogle³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 80

12/1

14/1, last of 14 in handicap at York (7f, good) 31 days ago but had gone close over 7f at Lingfield prior to that. Handily drawn for a prominent racer.

Form: 61-0020

Triple Double A^p,t²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: Grace McEntee| T: H Palmer| OR: 79| D

16/1

Won his first 3 handicaps this spring (all 1m on good/good to firm). Creditable efforts in defeat twice since, latterly fifth in the traditionally strong Silver Bowl at Haydock (1m, good to firm). Another who has to enter calculations.

Form: 7-11125

Miami Matrix³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: H Palmer| OR: 78

17/2

Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Wolverhampton in February. Carried head awkwardly when seventh of 9 over C&D (good to soft) at the May meeting and has subsequently been gelded. Well drawn.

Form: 3137

Mayday Malone⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 73

28/1

Shaped better than last of 13 suggests on 8.5f Epsom reappearance 53 days ago. The return to a shorter trip looks a good move and the fact he's out of the handicap is offset by Warren Fentiman's claim.

Form: 64244-0

Forecasts

Jouncy (10/3), Star Anthem (7/2), Milford (7/2), Frankies Dream (9/2), Miami Matrix (17/2), Tattie Bogle (12/1), Triple Double A (16/1), Liberalised (20/1), Mayday Malone (28/1)

The suggestion is MILFORD on the back of a good run at the York Dante meeting in a race which has thrown up winners, including second choice Frankie's Dream who was behind the selection on that occasion but went in again back at York a fortnight ago. Hugo Palmer's Triple Double A completes the shortlist.
