Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 47| BF

Shark Two One^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Ethan Tindall⁽⁵⁾| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 46

12/1

Back to form when third of 13 in 7f Leicester classified race 3 weeks ago and nicely handicapped if able to build on that.

Form: 337-503

(6)

Elettaria^p¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 45

10/1

Dual winner of 7f classified events at Newcastle in 2025. Hasn't threatened to add to her tally this year but latest keeping-on third over 7.5f at Beverley was more encouraging.

Form: 655873

Alice's Influence¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: P J McDonald| T: P D Evans| OR: 52| D

13/2

Took another step forward to share the spoils in an 8-runner Wetherby handicap in April. Placed on next 2 outings and perhaps unsuited by soft ground when a remote fourth at Ffos Las 12 days ago.

Form: 9-41234

Captain Bruce³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Crook| OR: 47

150/1

Successful in nurseries at Chelmsford and Newcastle in 2025 but heavy defeats all 4 starts this season, including for new yard last twice.

Form: 16-9098

Forecasts

Far Ahead (2/1), Hostelry (9/2), Daring Leader (5/1), Anificas Beauty (11/2), Alice's Influence (13/2), Elettaria (10/1), Shark Two One (12/1), Nakatomi (25/1), Captain Bruce (150/1)

SHARK TWO ONE is taken to build on his latest back-to-form third at Leicester and deny Anificas Beauty the hat-trick. Far Ahead should also be very competitive after a pair of good runner-up efforts in recent weeks.
