Showstorm^v1¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: K R Burke| OR: 54| BF

10/3

Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on first time, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (1¼m) 17 days ago, doing too much too soon. The drop to 1m looks a good move with a visor also tried now. Gets the vote.

Form: 046/66-

C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year but off since a lesser effort at Nottingham in June. Might be best watched this time.

Remains a maiden after 21 runs but been knocking on the door since joining Joey Ramsden, including placing here on his last 2 starts. Another prominent showing is on the cards.

Saved Lizzie¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Darragh Keenan| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 45

18/1

Creditable sixth of 13 in handicap (28/1) at this course (7f) 19 days ago, nearest finish having met trouble. That was only her second start for this stable and she has handicapping scope if able to build on it.

Forecasts

Imola (1/1), Showstorm (10/3), Poke The Bear (5/1), Amarachi (12/1), Brinton (12/1), Saved Lizzie (18/1), Summer Evening (25/1), Kessaar Power (33/1), Pave The Way (33/1)

The fact SHOWSTORM has been prominent in the betting for both handicaps suggests his top yard thinks his mark is workable and the drop to 1m could suit him. Imola is in a good vein of form and seems sure to figure if over Saturday's course exertions. Poke The Bear is another likely to be on the premises.
