Fixated²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: S Dixon

66/1

Advertise gelding. Dam was a winner up to 8.6f, including as a two-year-old over 7f. Finished last of 9 in a 7f novice at Doncaster (100/1) 23 days ago, dwelt at the start and made no impression.

Form: 9

Gennadius¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Joe Leavy| T: R Hannon| OR: 70| BF

5/1

Placed several times in maidens, including a neck second at this course and distance in June. Finished third of 9 in maiden at Redcar (7/4) 13 days ago. Well suited to this trip but may need everything to fall right to break maiden status.

Pickering Castle^h³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: D M Simcock| OR: 72| BF

10/3

Third over C&D on return. Second of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (10/11) 33 days ago, staying on and pulling clear of the rest. Return to 7f trip could prove ideal based on running style.

Form: 632-32

Slipper Time⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: H Candy

1/1

Time Test gelding. Dam, maiden (stayed 7f), half-sister to useful 7f-9f winner King's Slipper. Finished third of 9 in 7f novice at Salisbury (28/1) 53 days ago, showing plenty of ability once getting the hang of things. Form pick and should improve significantly for that experience.

Form: 3

9/1

22,000 gns yearling, €20,000 2-y-o. Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to smart winner Cairo. Dam was a juvenile winner and sister to smart performer Gustav Klimt. Could figure in a weak maiden on debut.

Bonnita²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: William Cox| T: P R Chamings| OR: 60

80/1

Showed improved form when fourth of 7 over C&D (50/1) in June, but failed to repeat that when last of 6 in handicap at Leicester (9/1) 28 days ago. Temperament a concern.

Form: 5846

Havanita³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Jack Doughty| T: P R Chamings

10/1

Modest maiden who finished ninth of 13 on debut at Kempton (AW) before showing some improvement when fourth of 9 in novice stakes at Newmarket (150/1) 37 days ago. Still modest form and needs another run for a mark.

Form: 94

Lady Aiyana¹²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: William Carson| T: D & C Kubler

25/1

Time Test filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 2-y-o 1m winner Carntop and 2-y-o 1m winner Sound Bar. Seventh of 10 in maiden at Lingfield AW (11/1) 123 days ago, not persevered with once held. May need more time to develop.

Slipper Time (1/1), Pickering Castle (10/3), Gennadius (5/1), Zabeel Alkabeir (9/1), Havanita (10/1), In The Post (25/1), Lady Aiyana (25/1), Freda (50/1), Gregorians Star (66/1), Fixated (66/1), Bonnita (80/1), Ithacan (200/1)

SLIPPER TIME showed plenty of ability when third at Salisbury despite running green and should improve significantly for that experience. Pickering Castle has been consistent with three placed efforts recently and should appreciate returning to 7f. Gennadius has shown ability with consecutive top-three finishes but may need everything to fall right to break his maiden.
