Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: R Varian| D

30/100

Very green when third on debut over 7f here in August but after 10 months off, showed benefit of patient approach when making an impressive winning reappearance at Yarmouth (6f) 23 days ago. In top hands and big shout under a penalty with further progress on the cards.

Form: 3-1

10/1

Overcame inexperience to land 6f maiden at Lingfield on debut in January. That form was boosted thereafter but he went backwards when well held at Doncaster 71 days ago. Now sports a first-time tongue strap having been gelded and he could yet get back on the up.

Form: 10

Two Commanders²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: C Horgan⁽⁵⁾| T: E Bethell| OR: 78| D

10/3

Posted promising third of 6 in a Catterick maiden (7f) on debut in May and proved more professional with that under his belt when scoring over 6f back there 23 days ago. Possibilities with further improvement forthcoming.

Form: 31

125/1

Havana Grey filly who went with little promise when last of 8 on debut in a Wolverhampton maiden (5f) 18 days ago.

Form: 8

Material Girl¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: J P Sullivan| T: A Watson

28/1

Oasis Dream filly who makes some appeal on paper but she failed to progress from a low-key debut when fifth of 11 in a Southwell novice (6f) 16 days ago. Low-grade nurseries entitled to be more her bag after this.

Form: 75

Forecasts

Anyasi (30/100), Two Commanders (10/3), Bucklow Hill (10/1), Red Legs (16/1), Material Girl (28/1), Baby G (125/1), Retro Rocket (200/1)

ANYASI showed the benefit of a patient approach 10 months on from his course debut third when running out a comfortable winner at Yarmouth and he looks up to defying a penalty with further progress on the cards. Fellow penalised pair Two Commanders and Bucklow Hill can emerge next best, in that order.
