Tigerwolf¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: J F Egan| T: M R Channon| OR: 75| D

7/1

Off the mark at the seventh attempt when landing a maiden at Salisbury but struggled subsequently in handicaps and he's often slowly away. Yard in form but others preferred.

Form: 316-505

Mister Music^p³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: David Probert| T: A W Carroll| OR: 75| C| D

9/2

Only recorded one win since 2013 and unplaced on his four latest outings. Latest success came in 2015 when winning over the mile here and obviously well-handicapped but not shown enough on recent starts to suggest a return to form is imminent.

Form: 374455

Another Boy^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Georgia Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: R M Beckett| OR: 74| D

9/1

Took advantage of his reduced mark when making all at Sandown last time, quickening up well and 3lb rise seems fair for that effort. Gets a 5lb claimer with a good record around here taking over and may be able to win again.

Form: 75-4041

(3)

Wannabe Friends²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Finley Marsh⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hughes| OR: 73

3/1

Still a maiden after eight starts but has gone close on occasions. Below form on three starts for this yard but handicapper has given him a chance and a useful 7lb claimer in the saddle catches the eye.

Form: 5-24034

(2)

Good Luck Charm^v¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: H Crouch⁽³⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 73| CD

9/1

Recorded his sixth success last time out at Brighton, where three of his wins had come and only up 1lb for that effort. Seemingly enjoys an undulating track having also won over C&D before and still below his highest winning mark; should run well.

Form: 974201

(4)

Sheikspear¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: David Egan⁽⁵⁾| T: E De Giles| OR: 76| D

3/1

Just got up within the shadow of the post at Kempton last time out, seemingly relishing the step up to 7f and only up 1lb for that effort. Equally as effective on turf and should run well.

Form: 24-9131

(5)

Highway One^b1³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: F Sweeney| T: George Baker| OR: 75

33/1

Still a maiden after four starts and no progress on handicap debut last time at Ffos Las. First-time blinkers need to spark improvement and she's opposable off the same mark here.

Form: 4287

(6)

Live Dangerously¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-10| J: William Carson| T: J J Bridger| OR: 59| CD

9/1

Very consistent sort who has a soft ground C&D win to his name off a higher mark than this. Good run earlier in the month at Brighton and while he can race keenly on occasions, he's an each-way player here.

Form: 156323

Forecasts

Wannabe Friends (3/1), Sheikspear (3/1), Mister Music (9/2), Tigerwolf (7/1), Another Boy (9/1), Good Luck Charm (9/1), Live Dangerously (9/1), Highway One (33/1)

Live Dangerously is very consistent and should be thereabouts while Sheikspear got back in the winner's enclosure last time and ought to run well returned to turf. However, it's course and distance winner GOOD LUCK CHARM who may be able to record back-to-back victories after winning at Brighton last time out.
