Warrior Mode²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 81

5/4

Won a Wolverhampton novice on debut last spring in taking fashion. Lightly raced subsequently and offered something to work on after a second breathing operation/8-month break when third of 7 in handicap (4/1) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Can do better with an outing under his belt.

Form: 14380-3

Foreseen⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: S C Cronin⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 79| CD

13/2

Not the easiest of rides (can pull hard) but he recorded his fourth win since the autumn when making all on turf at Lingfield in May. Had too much use of him made back over a longer trip when eighth of 14 in handicap at Sandown (1¼m, good to soft) 61 days ago. Return to this trip should suit.

Stardancer^t⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Georgia Dobie| T: C G Cox| OR: 77| D

11/1

Low-mileage gelding who stepped up on his return from a 10-month absence (in which he'd had a breathing operation) to win a 7-runner handicap at Chepstow (1m, good to firm, 11/1) 46 days ago. Knuckled down well after hitting full stride there and he's a player from 3 lb higher.

Form: 2/237-61

Grey Soul^p⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Jason Watson| T: Dan Horsford| OR: 77| D

15/2

Resumed progress in first-time cheekpieces when pushed out to score at Ffos Las (1m, soft) at the start of June and coped well with contrasting conditions to follow up at the same C&D later in the month. Up another 3 lb but still going the right way.

Form: 861-411

Metallo⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: D Egan| T: J Butler| OR: 75

11/4

It's now 17 runs since his last win back in 2023 but he went close on debut for this yard back in February. Tried over a variety of distances since and was faced with a wide trip when tenth of 12 in handicap at this course (11f, 14/1) 44 days ago. On a handy mark if back to his best.

Form: 046440

Kindest Nation^v⁶¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: H Palmer| OR: 73

22/1

Put it all together when winning at Newcastle (7f) in November but regular slow starts since have shown why she's tricky to recommend as a betting proposition.

Form: 71496-0

I Am Me⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Cieren Fallon| T: M Murphy| OR: 71| CD

22/1

Capitalised on the drop in grade in 12-runner handicap over C&D in February, staying on to lead line. Remains lightly raced for current yard and shaped better than the result for a long way when ninth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 63 days ago. Should come on for that outing.

Form: 25-3319

Beauty By My Side³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: J Mitchell| T: J Parr| OR: 69| D

33/1

Winner at Chelmsford in October but little to shout about since, including on return from a 5-month break at Ascot last time.

Form: 106-000

(8)

Lili Marleen¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Finley Marsh| T: Jack Jones| OR: 68| D

200/1

Produced a fair effort when winning on the all-weather at Chantilly in December for Waldemar Hickst but was pulled up on stable debut and failed to beat a rival at Wolverhampton 12 days ago.

Form: 31-0FP9

(7)

Cotswold Cottage³²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Nicola Currie| T: Faye Bramley| OR: 67

66/1

Produced a career best under a well-judged ride when winning an 8-runner handicap at Haydock (1¼m, good, 11/8) in September. Makes return from 10-month absence from a career-high mark over this shorter trip.

Form: 1/31461-

Forecasts

Warrior Mode (5/4), Metallo (11/4), Foreseen (13/2), Grey Soul (15/2), Stardancer (11/1), Kindest Nation (22/1), I Am Me (22/1), Beauty By My Side (33/1), Cotswold Cottage (66/1), Lili Marleen (200/1)

GREY SOUL has won 2 of his 3 starts for Dan Horsford and the progressive son of Dark Angel is fancied to complete the hat-trick. Stardancer is still low mileage and should remain competitive after a 3 lb rise for his Chepstow win, whilst Warrior Mode looked like he'd got himself back on track when third on his recent Newmarket return.
