Offiah's Boy¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 54

7/2

In top form with two wins and two runner-up finishes in last four starts. Won an 11-runner handicap at Bath over 11.6f (7/1) 10 days ago, confirming stamina after previous narrow defeats. Should remain competitive at this trip.

Form: 991221

Angel On High³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: Cieren Fallon| T: A Wintle| OR: 52

9/2

Modest performer who's shown better form over middle distances, fourth of 6 in handicap at Leicester over 8f (5/2) 30 days ago, found wanting for a change of gear at the shorter trip. Without a win in 15 races but should be more competitive back up in trip.

Form: 20-4424

Arenas Del Tiempo²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: R Kingscote| T: J & S Best| OR: 52

11/2

Winless in 33 starts but got back on track (despite finding the track against her) when fifth of 10 in 12f handicap at Epsom Downs (8/1) 24 days ago when hanging left. Best when ridden positively and booking of Richard Kingscote catches the eye off a career-low handicap mark.

Form: 76-9485

Peter Piper^h²³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Zacharia Clarke⁽⁷⁾| T: D K Ivory| OR: 50

50/1

Modest maiden finished 7th of 10 in 8f AW handicap at Lingfield (16/1) 234 days ago when staying on late without threatening. Steps up significantly in trip on return to turf but that move needs to bring about marked improvement.

Mostly Mozart^p1¹⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: S D Bowen| T: R T Phillips| OR: 50

80/1

One good handicap run before finishing last of 9 in 12f handicap at Wolverhampton (22/1). First-time cheekpieces replace hood today and remains to be seen whether the change of headgear has the desired effect.

Form: 40-3589

Fascinating Lips^b¹²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: G & J Moore| OR: 50| BF

9/1

Winless in 16 starts since September 2022 but has placed off higher marks than this. Finished sixth of 10 as 2/1 favourite in classified company at Lingfield (10f), not helped by racing wide. Remains on a career-low mark and cannot be dismissed if ready to roll after a break (has gone well fresh).

Form: 65-7V26

Bramble Jelly¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Ffrench-Davis⁽⁵⁾| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 47

25/1

Tried hurdling with mixed success, winning once, before finishing fourth of 8 in handicap on turf at Lingfield (12/1) 18 days ago, shaping as if better for the run. Can be competitive if improving on second Flat run of the season.

Form: 4516-74

Walk The Moon^h¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

14/1

Longstanding maiden but still in form dropped into selling handicap company latest third of 8 in 11.6f turf handicap at Lingfield (4/1) 18 days ago, again better than the bare result having been snatched up entering the final furlong. No surprise to see him run well from just out of the handicap.

Form: 703443

Velvet Vulcan^t¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley| T: M Murphy| OR: 45

11/1

Modest handicapper without a win in 12 attempts since February 2024, finished second behind a less exposed winner in an 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (18/1) 18 days ago when running on late after being held up. Claims if he can build on that performance (races from 1 lb out of the handicap)

Form: 700-672

Shop Local³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Ashley Lewis⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss S West| OR: 45

11/1

Stepped up on reappearance when 5th of 10 in handicap at Leicester (80/1) 3 days ago without fully convincing that she stayed the longer trip. Still early days but has stamina to prove stepped up further in distance (races from 1 lb out of the handicap).

Form: 8/457-05

Jack Langley^h²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Davies| T: S Dow| OR: 52| BF

9/1

Stepped on previous efforts to win a conditions race at Lingfield and is better than he showed on turf debut when seventh of 10 in handicap at Epsom Downs (10/3) 24 days ago, hampered and didn't handle the track. Worth another chance on just his second turf start with this track expected to suit.

Form: 08517

Argentum⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jonny Peate| T: M Crawley| OR: 51

13/2

Stepped forward from all-weather form when fourth on handicap debut over this C&D prior to finishing third of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (20/1) 45 days ago, making progress from midfield despite hanging left over 1f out. Hasn't looked the most straightforward but makes appeal in this company.

Form: 67643

A Bit Iffy^h¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: R Cook & J Bridger| OR: 50

12/1

Ran career-best when second of 10 in handicap at Epsom (16/1) 24 days ago (winner won again next time) but wasn't in same form when ninth of 11 in handicap at Bath (9/1) 10 days ago. Hood back on and would have claims in an open race if bouncing back.

Lingfield maiden winner JACK LANGLEY could be worth another chance having been unsuited by Epsom last time. He may be able to make his second turf start a winning one, though Argentum has shown improvement in recent turf handicaps and has good claims returning to this course after a creditable third at Lingfield, despite again not looking entirely straightforward. Fascinating Lips remains on a career-low mark and would be of interest if market vibes are positive on his return.
