Two Plus Two^b²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: P Cosgrave| T: E De Giles| OR: 60| D

6/5

Straightforward type who showed a good attitude to resume winning ways at Bath. Surprisingly wasn't asked to make the running when fourth over C&D subsequently but could make a bold bid if able to lead.

Form: 117-414

Nymphaea^p¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Marco Ghiani| T: J Candlish| OR: 48

9/4

Maiden who backed up her previous effort when runner-up in a classified stakes at Windsor (11.5f) last time. Step back up in trip no issue and she's a likely player in a weak handicap.

Star Of Jupiter^b,e/s,t¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Harry Davies| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 45

4/1

First past the post off a 1 lb higher mark at Ffos Las (2m) last summer. Not suited by the steady pace at Yarmouth on his latest start and could make more impact in a race with a couple of forward-going types.

Form: 446-256

Muhib²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Shay Farmer⁽⁵⁾| T: Olly Williams| OR: 45

15/2

Long-standing maiden but he's at least consistent and is worth a go over this longer trip.

Forecasts

Two Plus Two (6/5), Nymphaea (9/4), Star Of Jupiter (4/1), Regally Blonde (13/2), Muhib (15/2)

A trappy handicap in which TWO PLUS TWO appeals most, especially if able to lead, while Star of Jupiter is likely to go close if there's enough pace in the race. Nymphaea is also weighted to go well in her bid for an elusive first win.
