Welcheston Warrier²⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Ned Fox| T: C Boultbee-Brooks| OR: 92

10/1

From a family his stable know well. Little impact in novices and failed to improve for the longer trip when well beaten on handicap debut at Stratford (22f, good to soft, 18/1). Has been given a break and probably too soon to write off at a modest level.

Form: 8/6B70-

Arctic Saint^p,t²⁶⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Cameron Iles| T: Deborah Cole| OR: 87

7/2

Maiden shaped with promise last winter for new yard and ran creditably on first start following wind surgery when midfield in a 10-runner Chepstow handicap (19.4, soft) in February. May take a step forward with cheekpieces refitted back over a slightly longer trip.

Martalmix'jac^p,t¹⁹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Tabitha Worsley| T: Mrs M Rowley| OR: 83| CWS

14/1

Last successful when winning a chase at this track off 1 lb lower in February (heavy) last year but below form on latest start in May when yard were struggling. Stable going better now and he could be closer to form on a rare start over hurdles following another breathing operation.

Form: P/P223-5

Goguenard¹⁹⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-2| J: Finn Lambert| T: D J Jeffreys| OR: 80| D

5/1

Won three handicap hurdles in soft/heavy last year. Well backed on return to hurdles when second at Bangor in February but not in the same form under less testing conditions at Ffos Las last time. Cheekpieces removed for return (can go well fresh) and merits respect with conditions to suit.

Form: 9/P442-9

Jukebox D'eddy^b,t²⁰⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Tom Hutsby⁽⁷⁾| T: T R Gretton| OR: 78

11/4

Long standing maiden completed a hat-trick of runner-up finishes when narrowly beaten in a novice handicap chase at Warwick in April. His best form has come over hurdles and could be a player if fully wound up for this reappearance.

Jewel Eyed Judy²¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Jamie Brace| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 76

5/2

Lightly raced maiden who hasn't shown much in a trio of handicap starts this season. Races off a basement mark but only considered if market expects better returning from 7 months off.

Form: 08/65PP-

Mind Hunter^b,t²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Ellis Collier| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 75| BF

18/1

Arrives in good heart, following up his Uttoxeter fourth with a creditable third in a 7-runner handicap at Exeter (23.1f, good) last month, holding every chance when blundering 2 out. This looks an equally winnable race and he should be in the mix again.

Form: 0P8-243

Forecasts

Jewel Eyed Judy (5/2), Jukebox D'eddy (11/4), Arctic Saint (7/2), Goguenard (5/1), Welcheston Warrier (10/1), Martalmix'jac (14/1), Mind Hunter (18/1)

In-form MIND HUNTER looks the most solid option with race-fitness on his side and he gets the tentative vote in a low-grade handicap. Goguenard can go well fresh and should be in the mix with conditions to suit, while Jukebox d'Eddy was in good heart earlier this year and may collect some prize money back over hurdles.
