Selected odds by:

(11)

Mr Potter^e/s,h¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: P Makin| T: R C Guest| OR: 61| C

14/1

A winner at Chelmsford two starts ago over 7f yet to score over this trip but has run very well over it in the past. Claims off this mark now returned to the AW.

Form: 458619

(1)

Arrowzone^b²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: D C Costello| T: K Frost| OR: 57| D

5/2

A winner over slightly further at Wolverhampton last time out in good style, a 6lb rise for that effort seems fair and having run very well here in the past another big performance can be expected from the inside draw.

Form: 968951

(3)

Thornaby Nash^p⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: D Tudhope| T: K Tutty| OR: 56| D

5/1

2/3 career wins have come over this trip, yet to get off the mark on the AW but put in a very good effort over C&D two starts ago, so clearly act on the surface.

Form: 751449

(9)

Betty Grable⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Nicola Currie⁽⁷⁾| T: W Storey| OR: 57

11/1

Bounced back from an underwhelming handicap debut to run well at this course last time out over 7f, when shaping as if this step up in trip should suit her very well.

Form: 65686

(10)

Lozah¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: T Hamilton| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 53| CD

6/1

C&D winner but unattractive strike-rate overall and is probably looking at a place at best here, in line with her recent efforts.

Form: 892686

(7)

Arizona Sunrise⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Joe Doyle| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 51

25/1

Drop in trip to 7f helped him far a little bit better at this course last time out, but was in very poor form for this yard prior to that and others hold more convincing claims.

Form: 00-0004

(5)

Little Jo³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Ben Robinson⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 50

6/1

Yet to play a key part in any of his five races so far, dropped a further 2lb here but needs to find improvement for the drop back down to this trip.

Form: 49367

(2)

Rosie Hall^b⁴⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 45

200/1

Remains a maiden after 27 races, has beaten no horses home in here last three races and arrives here off the back of a very long absence. Impossible to build a case for.

Form: 300070-

(8)

Palindrome¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Barry McHugh| T: Mrs Marjorie Fife| OR: 45

5/1

14 race maiden who has run his better races over further than this and is left with plenty to prove now dropping back down to this trip.

Form: 305437

(6)

Nellie Deen^h⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: S G West| OR: 45

100/1

Yet to get off the mark and neither of her two efforts for this yard to date have been among her best. An unattractive proposition in a first time hood.

Form: 560500

(4)

Pontecarlo Boy^b1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Cam Hardie| T: R M Whitaker| OR: 45

40/1

14 race maiden who drops in trip here with no obvious evidence that will be of benefit, with first-time blinkers needing to have a big effect.

Form: 060478

Forecasts

Arrowzone (5/2), Palindrome (5/1), Thornaby Nash (5/1), Little Jo (6/1), Lozah (6/1), Betty Grable (11/1), Mr Potter (14/1), Arizona Sunrise (25/1), Pontecarlo Boy (40/1), Nellie Deen (100/1), Rosie Hall (200/1)

He is 6lb higher in the weights and racing over shorter, but in winning at Wolverhampton last time out ARROWZONE has by far the best recent form and could prove a cut above the rest of these. Winning well on that occasion he probably would have scored even with the extra weight, and therefore is the suggestion here. Thornaby Nash should be suited by track and trip and looks next best, ahead of Betty Grable, who should be suited by this step up in trip.
