Gnocchi^p1²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: S M Levey| T: James Horton| OR: 60

11/2

Modest form in varied events at 2 yrs and has run to a similar level in 2 handicaps this spring, failing to convince at the longer trip (stamina on dam's side of pedigree) when fifth of 9 at Lingfield (1¼m) last month. Drops in grade with cheekpieces on first time.

Form: 4499-75

Time To Sparkle²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Jonny Peate| T: J Keane| OR: 57

3/1

Off the mark at Wolverhampton (8.5f) in March and has confirmed that improvement in 2 starts since, third of 7 at Yarmouth (1¼m) on latest outing despite having raced freely. Could do with settling better but she enters calculations.

Form: 7-49153

Echo Valley¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: William Carver| T: T Symonds| OR: 53

22/1

Little impact in maidens/novice and fared no better on handicap debut when seventh of 9 at Bath (1¼m) 16 days ago. Dam was a 2m winner so she may be in need of a stiffer test.

Form: 7707

Dash Of Class^h³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 53| BF

5/1

Showed improved form when making the frame in all-weather handicaps first 2 starts this year (over 9.5f on first occasion), before racing keenly reverted to more patient tactics when fifth of 7 at Bath (1m) last time. Could still have more to offer over this trip.

Form: 600-435

Regulus Black¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Ross Coakley| T: H Palmer| OR: 51| BF

15/8

Didn't offer much in his qualifying runs, but is bred to be better than his opening mark and having been well backed he showed improved form when third of 9 in handicap at Beverley (1¼m) 17 days ago. Major player on the back of his latest effort.

Form: 4553

Go For Gold¹⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Charles Bishop| T: J G Portman| OR: 51

13/2

Brought along gradually in her 3 starts last year, unsuited by the drop to 7f when seventh of 8 in novice at Wolverhampton in December. This distance should be more suitable based on pedigree, so she's worth a market check on handicap/seasonal debut.

Form: 897-

Leia Antilles³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Nicola Currie| T: H Candy| OR: 50

33/1

No better than mid-division in a trio of maidens so far, returning from 9 months off when eighth of 12 at Lingfield (1m) in April. Upped further in trip as she goes handicapping.

Form: 68-8

No Drama Mama^p1⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: S D Bowen| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 49

25/1

Down the field in novices first 3 starts, but met trouble in running when eighth of 12 on handicap debut at Kempton (1m) in February. Failed to build on that at Wolverhampton (9.5f) last time, though it remains early days as she switches to turf with cheekpieces applied.

Form: 95-688

Forecasts

Regulus Black (15/8), Time To Sparkle (3/1), Dash Of Class (5/1), Gnocchi (11/2), Go For Gold (13/2), Echo Valley (22/1), No Drama Mama (25/1), Leia Antilles (33/1)

REGULUS BLACK took a step forward when third on handicap debut at Beverley last time, pulling a little way clear with a pair of fellow improvers, and he can build on that to open his account. The main danger could be Dash of Class, who is worth another chance to build on her previous promise this year, ahead of Time to Sparkle.
