5/1

2 wins from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Lingfield in May. Ran too bad to be true when last of 14 in handicap at Epsom (12f, good to soft, 8/1) 21 days ago. Can't be ruled out.

Wisper²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A King| OR: 84| C

11/2

Course winner who stripped fitter for reappearance/yard debut when close second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 27 days ago, having to pick way through. Just 1 lb higher here and is one for shortlist.

Form: 5273-52

Forecasts

Westridge (5/4), Candyman Stan (5/1), Wisper (11/2), Andaleep (6/1), Houstonn (12/1), Primo Lara (14/1), King's Code (16/1), Victory Shout (40/1), Cumulonimbus (50/1)

WISPER was having just her second start for Alan King when a good second at Chelmsford earlier this month and figures off a handy mark. She can land the spoils. Westridge and Andaleep are feared most.
