Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Watson⁽⁵⁾| T: D H Brown| OR: 57

Gainsay²⁸

5/1

Victorious by a head at Wolverhampton last month. Could finish only fourth upped to 1m at Yarmouth (soft) subsequently and likely to appreciate this return to 7f.

9/2

Ran well to finish runner-up over C&D on good-to-firm ground earlier this month. Similar conditions forecast here and a repeat of that should see her go close.

Forecasts

Medici Oro (11/4), River Rule (9/2), Gainsay (5/1), Quick Recovery (13/2), Following Breeze (8/1), Duba Plains (12/1), Felstead Knight (12/1), Diamond Express (14/1), Shoyd (14/1), Watch Tan (33/1), Ede's A Winner (33/1)

QUICK RECOVERY made a pleasing return to the turf when fourth last time out and she can step up on that by taking this competitive opening contest stepping up in trip. The selection has had just two previous attempts at this distance and can get the better of Diamond Express, runner-up last time out in this event. River Rule finished second here last time and she can register another placing while Following Breeze, a stablemate of the selection is another to consider.
