7/5
9/1, improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap at Newbury (12f, heavy) 4 days ago. Carries 4 lb penalty but this course scorer can go well again if on his A-game.

Fifteen runs since last win in 2024. Below-par fourth of 6 in handicap (14/1) at Salisbury (9.9f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Something to find on form.

Career best when gamely winning 15-runner handicap (5/1) at Leicester (10f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Not taken lightly despite taking a 3 lb rise.

6/1
Blinkered and gambled on for his yard debut (formerly with Sam England) but lost all chance at the start when tenth of 14 in handicap at this course (8.3f, heavy) 6 days ago. Cheekpieces are retried now and worth another chance off a handy-looking mark.

18/1, first run since leaving Andrew Balding when ninth of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, good) 61 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces refitted. Unreliable sort.

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 18/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 18 days ago, left poorly placed. One to consider.

Forecasts

Alpine Stroll (7/5), Mystical Maria (5/2), Joe Masseria (6/1), Fast Steps (15/2), Artavian (9/1), Bondi Man (14/1), Dogged (14/1), Paragon (50/1)

Verdict

JOE MASSERIA scuppered his chance at the start when gambled on for his yard debut here last week and now tried in different headgear is worth another chance to capitalise on a lenient mark. Richard Fahey's Mystical Maria showed a good attitude when going in at Leicester last time and rates a big danger though, while Alpine Stroll is also well in the mix if in the same form as when scoring at Newbury four days ago. In-form maiden Bondi Man completes the shortlist.
