Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 85| D

14/1

Hasn't fired in his 3 outings this year but a revival can't be discounted given he's dipped to the same mark as when landing a Racing League handicap at Wolverhampton last summer.

Form: 256-658

Latest win at Thirsk in April. 3/1, respectable third of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 16 days ago, faring best of those held up. Might prove the answer.

12/1

On a hat-trick after all-the-way 6f wins at Windsor (good) and Newbury (good to firm) in recent months. Another 9 lb higher but further progress can't be discounted in her current mood.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Finley Marsh| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 76| D

66/1

Latest win at Lingfield in April. 20/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 613865

Sensorium³³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 81

14/1

Fairly useful at 2, winning 5f Beverley maiden and excellent third of 20 in valuable sales race at York (6f, good to firm). Off 11 months ahead of this handicap debut but he returns with the stable in very good form.

Wreck It Ryley^p⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: P J McDonald| T: A D Brown| OR: 74| BF| D

12/1

3/1, good second of 9 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good) 6 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Should be competitive off the same mark.

Form: 546062

Express Train¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 78| D

12/1

Beaten a combined 26 lengths over 7f on first 2 starts but different proposition dropped to a sprint trip when making all in novice at Leicester (good to firm) 19 days ago. More on his plate now pitched into a well-contested handicap but there could easily be more to come.

Forecasts

Tuco Salamanca (5/2), Bishop's Crown (9/2), Dorney Lake (5/1), Far Above Dream (10/1), Tiger Tulip (12/1), Musical Touch (12/1), Wreck It Ryley (12/1), Express Train (12/1), Thunder Blue (14/1), Sensorium (14/1), Rebel Path (28/1), Invincible Speed (66/1)

MUSICAL TOUCH has shaped well on a few occasions since his Thirsk win in the spring and gets the vote for the North. Tiger Tulip is respected as a thriving sort, while Far Above Dream and Express Train are lightly-raced 3-y-os who should have their best days ahead of them.
