We Are The World^b²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 79| D

10/1

Went close at Ripon two starts back before finishing down the field in a competitive heat at Sandown last time. Conditions here are no problem and will be involved if bouncing back dropped down in trip.

Form: 6-15827

Cosmic Love¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: W J Haggas| OR: 79| D

7/4

The drop back to a mile worked the trick as she picked up a small novice event at Chepstow two weeks ago. Starts life in handicaps off a reasonable mark and will be a leading contender in this field.

Form: 2-2341

Kalagia⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 78

15/8

Consistent filly that hardly ever runs a bad race. Only just picked off late on at Beverley (1m½f, good to firm) four days ago and is very likely to be tough to pass once again here, especially if gifted a soft lead.

Gendarme²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 74

5/1

Needs to show more than he has done on two handicap starts so far to be considered. Drop back in trip to a mile looks a good move but a couple of these have much sounder claims.

Form: 03-058

Barnay¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: M Dwyer| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 68

13/2

Appreciated the return to a mile last time when going close at Leicester. Nudged up 1lb for not winning but still has some room for improvement so not discounted.

Forecasts

Cosmic Love (7/4), Kalagia (15/8), Gendarme (5/1), Barnay (13/2), We Are The World (10/1)

All five of these come here with a chance of sorts. Barnay still has some potential off his mark and shouldn't be ignored. Cosmic Love got off the mark over this trip last time and should be very capable off her opening mark. There is a chance that KALAGIA could get a softish lead on the front end and if so she will be a real tough nut to crack.
