9/4

Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this course (7f, AW, 10/3) 6 days ago, readily. Improving all the time for these connections and major hat-trick claims given she escapes a penalty.

Jackson Street¹²

7/2

Fifteen runs since sole win in 2024. Creditable third of 10 in handicap (9/2) at Chelmsford City (7f) 12 days ago, clear of rest. Merits consideration from this career-low mark.

Forecasts

Villalobos (13/8), Dandy Khan (9/4), Jackson Street (7/2), Pink Socks (5/1), Whiskey Sunrise (10/1), Kessaar Power (10/1), Volendam (12/1), Eye Of The Water (22/1), Laurentia (28/1), Mishy's Star (80/1), Shades Of May (80/1), United Force (80/1)

It's hard to escape the claims of DANDY KHAN, who chases a quick-fire course hat-trick on the back of a brace of 7f wins and goes unpenalised for Tuesday's victory. Villalobos was quite a commanding winner at the same meeting a week ago so he's second choice, ahead of Jackson Street from his career-low mark, and Pink Socks, who made a good start for Ian Williams on Saturday.
