Graniteville⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: M Botti| OR: 80

9/2

Fair ex-French filly who signed off for Andre Fabre with a solid sixth of 17 in maiden at Saint-Cloud (1m, good) in April. Changed hands for 12,000 gns and offered something to work on when fourth of 9 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 4/1) on UK debut 9 days ago. Step back up in trip will suit.

Form: 0-464

Sydney Rock¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Mason Paetel⁽³⁾| T: Oliver Cole| OR: 73| BF

9/4

Runner-up all 3 starts as a 2-y-o. Back in similar heart (with the aid of favoured rail/solid pace) when clear ½-length second at Chepstow latest and backed that up when putting in some good late work to fill the same position in a 1m handicap at Salisbury 2 weeks ago. May benefit from further.

Form: 2-07622

Withtearsinmyeyes⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: J Channon| OR: 80| BF

1/1

Fairly useful form when placed on all 4 of her runs, bumping into a useful sort at Wolverhampton second time up. Lacked a turn of foot dropped to 7f on return from a 3-month break at Kempton last week but should bounce back now returned to 1m.

Form: 2232

Zupa Trupa²⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: R M Beckett

17/2

Zoustar filly ran to just a poor level when 10 lengths fourth of 9 in novice at Kempton (7f) on debut. Should improve for that experience after 8 months off.

Form: 4-

Withtearsinmyeyes (1/1), Sydney Rock (9/4), Graniteville (9/2), Zupa Trupa (17/2), Esplanade (80/1)

WITHTEARSINMYEYES's second to the smart prospect Seet at Wolverhampton is the best form on offer here and the drop to 7f was probably against her last time, so she's taken to get off the mark. Sydney Rock is highly respected after back-to-back placed efforts in handicaps, whilst the ex-French Graniteville should appreciate the return to 1m.
