Azure Angel^t²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: S H James| T: E Bethell| OR: 87

5/2

15/2, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. 1 lb nudge no great hardship, but she's still seeking her first win on turf and may have to settle for another minor role back at 5f (well held sole previous try over this trip).

Form: 7340-52

(6)

Muker²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Alex Jary⁽⁵⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 84| CD

7/2

C&D winner. Latest win at Thirsk in May. 7/1, bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 21 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good.

Form: 3-80134

Zarzyni^p⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: Nathan Evans| T: T D Barron| OR: 80| C| D

6/1

Course winner. Latest win at Musselburgh in April. 18/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 6 days ago. This is not as competitive and he could have a leading role to play.

Form: 8-53177

Alligator Alley²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-13| J: Rowan Scott| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 77| BF| D

17/2

Fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 16/5) 21 days ago, badly hampered. On a good mark (2 lb lower than for his latest win at Thirsk last summer), but others make more appeal all the same.

Form: 6-43865

South Parade²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 77| D

5/1

10/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 20 days ago. Place possibilities.

Form: 231-237

Profitable Edge⁶³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: A Mullen| T: T D Barron| OR: 77| DWS

16/1

11/1, 5 lengths tenth of 12 to Zarzyni in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 63 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 1414-80

(9)

Spirit Of Applause^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 75| D

13/2

Fourteenth of 19 in handicap at York (6f, good to firm, 50/1) 7 days ago. Twice placed off higher marks than this last month and it would be no surprise were he to bounce back with a bold show.

Form: 862390

Call To Action^b1⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 73| D

33/1

40/1, sixteenth of 19 in handicap at York (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Hopes now pinned on the first-time blinkers helping him to get back on track.

Forecasts

Azure Angel (5/2), Muker (7/2), South Parade (5/1), Zarzyni (6/1), Spirit Of Applause (13/2), Circus Lion (15/2), Alligator Alley (17/2), Profitable Edge (16/1), Burning Cash (16/1), Call To Action (33/1)

The vote goes to ZARZYNI, who contested a stronger handicap than this at Hamilton recently and he's just 2 lb above the mark off which he was successful at Musselburgh three starts back. The lightly-raced Circus Lion should be all the better for this reappearance spin on the all-weather and he is likely to be on the premises, along with Spirit of Applause.
