18/5

Won 10-runner handicap at this course (5.1f, good to firm, 12/1) 7 days ago, slowly away. This will be more demanding with a penalty to shoulder.

5/1

Sixth of 7 in handicap at Epsom (6f, good to soft, 6/1) 18 days ago and she's likely to find one or two too good once more.

5/2

Below form fourth of 10 in handicap (10/3) at Salisbury (5f, good) 26 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Back up in trip and she's a key player with Oisin Murphy booked.

Form: 31-3594

Valadero²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Brian Toomey| OR: 52

13/2

Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. Last of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (8f, good, 14/1) 23 days ago, hampered. Back down in trip and he's probably worth taking on.

Form: 335-560

Savalas^p⁸⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 9-0| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 46| D

33/1

6/1, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 87 days ago and this 10-y-o is not without an each-way chance.

Forecasts

Phoenix Moon (5/2), Gogo Yubari (18/5), Mammy (5/1), Vape (11/2), Valadero (13/2), Banana (7/1), Due Date (9/1), Nordic Glory (11/1), Savalas (33/1), Arlecchino's Gift (40/1)

DUE DATE was ultimately no match for the winner at Yarmouth 12 days ago, but he beat the rest pretty decisively and this 5-y-o and could be the way to go. He may have most to fear from Phoenix Moon, who should benefit from the return to this trip after doing her best work at the finish when fourth over 5f at Salisbury last month. Vape is best of the rest.
