Sydney Rock¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Ashley Lewis⁽⁵⁾| T: Oliver Cole| OR: 70

3/1

Promise when runner-up all 3 starts as a 2-y-o and had excuses for failing to beat a rival yet this time around, missing break over an inadequate trip last time. The return to this trip is sure to help so she could do much better if, as looks likely, she gets her own way in front.

Home Hero^v1²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: H Palmer| OR: 70

5/2

Best effort when third in fairly strong race at Chester over 1¼m on reappearance in May but gone the wrong way since, including in first-time cheekpieces last time. Now drops back in trip and tried in visor which could spark a revival.

Form: 644-389

Galba⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 69

11/8

Showed improved form when third of 10 in a handicap over 7f at this course on final start for Richard Hannon in June. Since purchased for £25k and switched to a stable in good form so that may not stall his progress and this step back up to 1m will suit.

Form: 3-7363

Terranoble⁶⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: D J Coakley| OR: 67

18/1

Won a weak all-weather novice in January and has failed to beat a rival in handicaps on turf since so is very hard to make a case for.

Form: 7-3160

Ingemar^h1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Joe Leavy| T: B J Meehan| OR: 60

12/1

Not without hope on pedigree but proved much too free in qualifying for a mark. Now makes handicap debut with hood applied and could progress if settling.

Form: 579

Bennyworth¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Tyler Heard| T: J R Boyle| OR: 55

33/1

Winless in 9 career starts and little to recommend him judged on recent eighth of 9 at Epsom 13 days ago, slowly away and going with little fluency.

SYDNEY ROCK has struggled on both starts this year but there are valid excuses, particularly her last outing over an inadequate 6f where a slow start didn't help. The return to 1m should prove much more suitable given her breeding, and she could prove hard to peg back if getting her way out in front. Galba showed improved form when third here last month and can build on that starting out for a new yard, while Home Hero also merits some respect.
