11/4

Modest gelding. Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 9/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Beverley (12.1f, good to firm) 21 days ago, not ideally placed. Needs considering.

Mond^h¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Alec Voikhansky| T: C Wallis| OR: 48

22/1

Modest gelding. Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. Below form sixth of 10 in minor event at Yarmouth (10.1f, good, 9/2) 18 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Chances are, his losing run will continue here.

Recobella¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Mason Paetel⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 50

Sassy Glory^p¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Jack Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: M Walford| OR: 46

8/1

Modest filly. Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Creditable third of 6 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, good to firm, 12/1) 17 days ago. Looks vulnerable.

The Pug¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁵⁾| T: A Wintle| OR: 49| D

11/4

Unreliable type. Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Good fourth of 10 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good to firm, 5/1) 10 days ago. Definite chance if he puts his best foot forward.

U S Grant^p⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: O McSweeney| T: K A Ryan| OR: 43

18/1

In a race devoid of a solid proposition, INSPIRING SPEECHES gets the nod. He remains winless following 19 attempts, but has shown enough in a handful of runs for his new yard since returning from a break to suggest that a race of this nature will be within his grasp. Cryptos Dream is next on the list ahead of The Pug.
