Form: 05-5299

Oasis Sunrise¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Edward Greatrex| T: G Harris| OR: 55

12/1

Showed improved form when 2nd of 10 in Bath handicap over this distance last month. Fourth of 8 in handicap at Ffos Las (16/1) 12 days ago, hampered at the start and not ideally placed. Has not won in 15 races but could fare better with a cleaner start in this field.

Form: 0-55424

Ajrad^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: B R Millman| OR: 46| BF| CD

17/2

Has winning form at this course and distance but can be unreliable overall. Ran well when second of 8 in 7f handicap at Chepstow (3/1) 18 days ago with headgear refitted. One to consider.

Form: 744502

(9)

Marisitta^p¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: William Carson| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 45

18/1

Maiden with mixed form at Chepstow including a second in June and wasted no time getting back to form when fourth of 8 in handicap over 7f (13/2) 18 days ago.

First Encounter^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: William Cox| T: J Gallagher| OR: 45| D

20/1

Has shown little form recently, including when 7th of 9 at Nottingham (9/1) 29 days ago when again running poorly over 10f. May benefit from this drop back to 8f.

Form: 15-7487

(7)

Letter Of The Law^b¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Jay Mackay⁽⁷⁾| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 45| CD

22/1

Patchy form since 2nd at C&D in May, including when sixth of 8 in handicap over 7f here (12/1) 18 days ago. Hard to be confident about.

Form: 902786

Forecasts

Alice's Impact (11/4), Soi Dao (10/3), My Ambition (7/1), Ajrad (17/2), Celebrating Ethel (9/1), Oasis Sunrise (12/1), Too Much Trevor (14/1), Al Shabab (16/1), Marisitta (18/1), First Encounter (20/1), Letter Of The Law (22/1), Llangynin Lass (22/1), Big Bug (125/1)

MY AMBITION has the ability to win again if settling better and gets the vote off his last successful mark. Alice's Impact is in excellent form, winning at Brighton 17 days ago, while Ajrad performs notably better at Chepstow and ran well when second here 18 days ago.
