The Good Biscuit¹⁰^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Joanna Mason| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 78| CD

7/2

Successful twice at this course last year and arrives here in top form after wins at Catterick and over C&D in recent weeks. Must be respected under a penalty.

Form: 284411

Alfa Whiteburd¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: I Furtado| OR: 80| CD

9/4

Responded well to a positive ride to exploit a lower turf mark in impressive fashion at Chester and didn't have to improve to defy a penalty over C&D 3 weeks ago. He is 7 lb higher here, but has won from this mark in the past.

Form: 7-68211

Aberama Gold^v¹²

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 77| D

10/1

Off the mark for the year at Catterick in April and went close a couple of times last month. Easy to forgive latest run at York so expected to bounce back.

Form: 035220

Uppercase²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 77

9/2

Looks progressive now, digging deep to get off the mark at Catterick before following up in good style at Epsom. Up 7 lb in a more competitive race but he could be up to it.

Form: 27-9311

(5)

Mae Amor^v⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: R Menzies| OR: 77| D

11/1

A 66/1-winner at Hamilton on return in May and finally back to that level when fourth of 26 at Glorious Goodwood last week. Task now is to back that up.

Form: 0-10964

Emperor Caradoc^p¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 75| C| D

20/1

Off the mark for the season at Thirsk in May. Generally held form since but he's back up in class here.

Form: 135624

(4)

Mister Sox^p¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 74| CD

4/1

Narrow winner at Ripon last summer. Mixed record this season and needs to shrug off a couple of disappointing runs at York.

Form: 703200

(6)

Sugar Baby¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: Ethan Tindall⁽⁵⁾| T: P D Niven| OR: 71| D

28/1

Four-time winner in 2025 and, after a couple of encouraging efforts, opened account for this season when keeping on well at Doncaster in June. Not on a going day at York since but the type to bounce back.

Form: 7-87510

Forecasts

Alfa Whiteburd (9/4), The Good Biscuit (7/2), Mister Sox (4/1), Uppercase (9/2), Aberama Gold (10/1), Mae Amor (11/1), Emperor Caradoc (20/1), Sugar Baby (28/1), Willolarupi (33/1)

ALFA WHITEBURD arrives in top form and has won off this revised mark as a 3-y-o, so is taken to complete a hat-trick at the main expense of Uppercase and The Good Biscuit, who are also bidding for the 3-timer.
