7/1

Latest win at Haydock in May. 16/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at Doncaster (16.5f, good) 18 days ago, having run of race. Back to his last winning mark and merits respect with Oisin Murphy booked.

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: G & J Moore| OR: 65| CD

33/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in March. Fourth of 5 in handicap (3/1) at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 62 days ago. Now tried in blinkers and, if the headgear helps him to shrug off that tame effort, he will have a part to play.

Form: 19/1634

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Sorin Moldoveanu⁽⁷⁾| T: Tracey Leeson| OR: 62

150/1

Fell in handicap hurdle (100/1) at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good) 10 days ago. Significantly up in trip and hood on for 1st time in this code. Poor on last Flat run. Readily passed over.

Form: 723/08-6

Synergism³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 72| BF

4/9

Promising sort. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Ffos Las (14f, soft, 6/4) 38 days ago, faring best of those held up. The one to beat.

Form: 9-12214

Forecasts

Synergism (4/9), Letmebetheboss (16/5), Simiyann (7/1), Capone (28/1), Donald Llewellyn (33/1), Leading Lion (150/1)

The 3-y-o SYNERGISM is the clear pick with this step up in trip expected to help unlock further improvement. He finished outside of the first two for the first time since switched to handicaps when fourth at Ffos Las last time but, having lost many lengths when hampered at the start of that race, it would be unwise to read too much into that. Simiyann and Letmebetheboss rate the main dangers, though Donald Llewellyn could also have a say if the first-time blinkers have the desired effect.
