Hurstwood¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: P D Niven| OR: 55| D

16/1

Latest win at Ripon in May. Ninth of 12 in handicap (12/1) at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 579219

(3)

Lady Of The Garr¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 55| D

12/1

Two wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm, 11/4) 13 days ago by short head from Quercus, just holding on. Hard to grumble with a 2 lb rise but she will need to find more in order to follow up here.

Form: 124271

Calafrio^p¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Oisin Murphy| T: P A Kirby| OR: 54| CD

11/4

C&D winner last summer, her sole success from 22 Flat runs. Still, she evidently goes well here (course record reads 22152) and shaped better than the bare result when a respectable length sixth of 10 to Lady of The Garr in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm, 10/3) 13 days ago. Shortlisted.

Form: 28-2366

(15)

Without Flaw¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Joanna Mason| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 54| D

10/1

One win from 24 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. 4/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Place possibilities.

Form: 89-2623

(17)

Quercus^p¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: J Fanning| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 54| D

15/2

9/1, good short-head second of 10 to Lady of The Garr in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) 13 days ago, rallying. Likely to be on the premises once again.

Form: 16-4562

(5)

Asadjumeirah^t,p¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 54| CD

25/1

C&D winner. 12/1, creditable ½-length fourth of 10 to Lady of The Garr in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Form: 258274

(16)

Mrs Trump²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mulrennan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 53| D

13/2

10/3, fifth of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Went close at Beverley on penultimate start and she's not without each-way hope.

Form: 3-53725

(12)

Doralee²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: T D Barron| OR: 53

40/1

12/1, last of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) 20 days ago and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 4320-58

(14)

Gis A Sub^p⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 53| D

10/1

10/1, sixth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 5 days ago, left poorly placed. Now 6 lb below last winning mark and he's not without each-way hope.

Form: 7-30966

(2)

Canaria Queen^p¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 51| BF| D

12/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (11/4) at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Looks vulnerable for win purposes, but she shouldn't be too far away all the same.

Form: 5-73544

(18)

Golden Prosperity^p¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 50| D

25/1

Latest win at Nottingham in June. Creditable ¾-length fifth of 10 to Lady of The Garr in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm, 11/2) 13 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more.

Form: 809715

(10)

Captain Pickles¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D C Costello| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 55

28/1

40/1, good fifth of 14 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Wouldn't be within an each-way chance if able to build on that, but will need to up his game in order to emerge on top.

Form: 68-8455

(11)

Rain Cap^v¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Mark Winn| T: J Riches| OR: 49| D

14/1

Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Redcar (7f, firm, 13/2) 12 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 0-72246

(4)

Korroor^v²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 49| BF| D

12/1

Latest win at Newcastle in March. 15/8, respectable 2 lengths third of 8 to Golden Prosperity in minor event at Nottingham (6.1f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Place possibilities.

Form: 783153

(1)

Juryman^p³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Garritty| T: Samantha & Jacqueline Coward| OR: 49

25/1

Unreliable individual. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Others make more appeal.

Form: 070-948

(7)

Crocus Time¹³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Harry Russell| T: R E Barr| OR: 46

80/1

Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. Good fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 12/1) when last seen 138 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Richard Hannon and she's probably worth taking on.

Form: 2690-45

(13)

Ifonlytheycudtalk^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 45

25/1

One win from 23 Flat runs. 14/1, eighth of 11 in minor event at Leicester (5f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Opposable.

Form: 5-66068

Chester Le Streak⁴⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Shay Farmer⁽⁷⁾| T: S Spencer| OR: 45| D

33/1

Seventh of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to firm, 13/2) 47 days ago. Best to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Calafrio (11/4), Mrs Trump (13/2), Quercus (15/2), Without Flaw (10/1), Gis A Sub (10/1), Korroor (12/1), Canaria Queen (12/1), Lady Of The Garr (12/1), Rain Cap (14/1), Hurstwood (16/1), Ifonlytheycudtalk (25/1), Asadjumeirah (25/1), Golden Prosperity (25/1), Juryman (25/1), Captain Pickles (28/1), Chester Le Streak (33/1), Doralee (40/1), Crocus Time (80/1)

CALAFRIO was behind several of these at Wetherby recently, but she again shaped better than the bare result that day and the return to this course may well have a positive effect given her solid record here. Another big plus is the booking of Oisin Murphy and she gets the nod ahead of Asadjumeirah, who was fourth in that Wetherby handicap. Lady of The Garr and Quercus filled the first two places in the same race, but there are reasons to believe that the placings will be different this time.
