(5)

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Mason Paetel⁽³⁾| T: B J Murphy| OR: 55

Fram Castle^v¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Alexandra Egan⁽⁷⁾| T: M Wigham| OR: 55| C

Ended 2025 out of form for Dominic Ffrench Davis but gained a first success for current yard in 10-runner handicap here (1¾m, good) 10 days ago, just holding on. Not taken lightly stepping up in trip.

Form: 60-8231

(4)

Simiyann^b,t¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Jack Callan| T: Ian Williams| OR: 54| D

Twelve runs since last win in 2025. Fair fifth of 7 in handicap at Ffos Las (2m, good) 16 days ago. Needs to build on it with blinkers back on.

Form: 042335

(3)

Fornido²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Kieren Fox| T: M J Attwater| OR: 47

Opened his account over 1¾m at Southwell last October and held form well on all-weather earlier this year. Only fourth of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (2m, all-weather) 26 days ago though. Bounce back needed.

Form: 244464

(8)

La Trinite¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Finley Marsh| T: N B King| OR: 47

Ended time with Mike Murphy under a cloud but in good nick for current yard, a close fifth of 8 in handicap at Brighton (1½m, good) 11 days ago. Should give it another good go over this longer trip.

Form: 69-2335

(9)

Cherry Cola^p¹⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-3| J: Rose Dawes⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss S West| OR: 46| C

Twenty runs since her last win in 2023. Below-form fourth of 10 to Fram Castle in handicap here (1¾m, good) 10 days ago. This course winner needs to take a step forward.

Form: 365-864

Cloudy Rose¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: Liam Wright⁽³⁾| T: John Berry| OR: 45

Back-to-back winner at Brighton and Doncaster last summer. Returned to form with fourth of 8 in handicap at Chepstow (1½m, soft) 14 days ago. Needs to back it up over this longer trip.

Form: 454874

(7)

Smith^v⁶⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 9-2| J: Jack Dace⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs L Richards| OR: 45

On a losing run and only seventh of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (2m, all-weather) in July. Others appeal more.

Form: 248-597

(10)

Turton^b²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Jack Doughty| T: A W Carroll| OR: 48

Has offered little in a handful of starts, including both outings for current yard at Leicester and Lingfield this summer. Takes a marked step up in distance now.

Form: 869569

Make A Splash^v¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: T Ward| OR: 47

Lightly-raced maiden. Visored for first time when an improved third of 7 in handicap at Ffos Las (2m, good) 16 days ago. Weighted to go close nudged up 1 lb in retained headgear.

Form: 96883

(11)

Lady Lauren¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Olivia Tubb⁽⁵⁾| T: E De Giles| OR: 45

Yet to better poor form and a well-held eighth of 10 to Fram Castle in handicap here (1¾m, good) 10 days ago. Up in trip.

Form: 650658

(6)

N'ion^v1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: William Cox| T: Ian Williams| OR: 45

Yet to offer much in 6 runs, coming in last of 11 in classified event at Wolverhampton (1½m) 17 days ago. Tried in a visor for the first time.

Form: 560860

Forecasts

Fram Castle (3/1), La Trinite (5/1), Make A Splash (5/1), Simiyann (11/2), Cloudy Rose (6/1), Cherry Cola (8/1), Fornido (12/1), Chillhi (20/1), Lady Lauren (25/1), Turton (33/1), N'ion (33/1), Smith (33/1)

Lots of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for MAKE A SPLASH to build on her improved Ffos Las third and gain a first success. Fram Castle rates the obvious threat on the back of a recent course victory ahead of in-form La Trinite.
