Roman Secret²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 56| BF

11/4

Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Last of 3 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good, 6/4) 26 days ago. Record stands at 1-17, but she needs considering off this reduced mark all the same.

Form: 3626-43

(3)

Right Now^p¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 54

4/1

10/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good to firm) 18 days ago, merely closing up late. Looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 064275

(2)

San Francisco Bay¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: T E Whelan| T: H Candy| OR: 53

2/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good, 4/1) 13 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 620-932

(5)

Toby Two Scoops⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Rob Hornby| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 54

8/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Very good sixth of 10 in handicap (11/2) at Wetherby (10f, good to firm) 46 days ago, but will need to step up on that if he's to open his account in this contest.

Form: 0094-6

(9)

Darlo Lady¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: William Carson| T: A Carson| OR: 45

22/1

Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Up in trip and, chances are, she will have to wait for another day for that breakthrough success.

Form: 79-7575

(7)

Lilac Wine⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Nicola Currie| T: George Baker| OR: 53

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, sixth of 9 in novice at Goodwood (8f, good) 42 days ago. Worth a peak in the betting upped in trip for this handicap debut.

Form: 006

(8)

West Wickham^b²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Aidan Keeley| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 52

12/1

Sixth of 9 in handicap (6/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 24 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Eased 3 lb since and while he needs to raise his game a touch, that is by no means impossible.

Form: 0-56666

(1)

Satyress^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Cam Hardie| T: H Bethell| OR: 52

28/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1 and hooded for 1st time, eighth of 11 in novice at Newcastle (7.1f) 21 days ago. Significantly up in trip for this handicap debut and she's another who is worth a second look in the betting.

Form: 788

(6)

Ribbon Is A Dancer^b¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Gina Mangan| T: H Palmer| OR: 45

22/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1 and blinkered for 1st time, twelfth of 14 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Significantly up in trip and sizeable step forward required.

Form: 009-0

Forecasts

San Francisco Bay (2/1), Roman Secret (11/4), Right Now (4/1), Toby Two Scoops (8/1), West Wickham (12/1), Lilac Wine (14/1), Darlo Lady (22/1), Ribbon Is A Dancer (22/1), Satyress (28/1)

SAN FRANCISCO BAY couldn't live with the well-backed favourite Shady Bay over this C&D recently, but that was a creditable effort nonetheless and he is the most tempting proposition in this line-up. West Wickham and Roman Secret are taken to fill the places in that order of preference, while it will be interesting to see if money arrives for handicap debutantes Lilac Wine or Satyress.
