Blue Siam^p¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Tucker⁽⁵⁾| T: H Palmer| OR: 50

6/1

Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 19 days ago, nearest finish. Wouldn't be discounted from making the frame again but others strike as likelier winners.

Form: 4536-54

Yurinov^p¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Cara Tuke⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Kirby| OR: 45

7/2

Long-standing maiden. 11/2, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago, doing too much too soon. Bit more needed from just out of the weights.

Forecasts

Himself (5/4), Havachoc (3/1), Yurinov (7/2), Forglen (5/1), Blue Siam (6/1), Fornido (8/1), Damzon (12/1), Zooks (12/1), Alex The Great (20/1), Mrs Meader (28/1), Hobgoblin (125/1)

HIMSELF was value for extra when scoring again at Wolverhampton 11 days ago and he gets the verdict over another hat-trick seeker in the shape of Havachoc, who was better than ever when scraping home over 12f here on Thursday. Forglen chased the selection home last time and can reach the placings once more.
