Rippling Waters¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M R Channon| OR: 73| BF

8/1

Couple of placed efforts from four starts on the Flat so far, having looked modest in bumpers previously. Clear second at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) behind facile winner. Can have a say in this.

Wink Oliver²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: D C Costello| T: J Hughes| OR: 72| D

13/2

Six-time AW winner, but just 1 from 21 on turf. Recent Newbury effort over 7f from 2lb higher mark offered some hope however and not discounted this time.

Rastacap¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 74

13/8

Made every yard to win over 7f at Chepstow this month. Had a useful 7lb claimer to help there and, with a ratings rise, is effectively carrying an additional 11lb this time going up in grade.

Red Force One^v1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 73

5/4

Gelded and given a wind op after his two-year-old career he's looked the sort who can take a handicap, having run well in four this year so far. Solid effort at Chester already this month, strong claims of shedding maiden status now.

Form: 45-5533

Mister Musicmaster¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: R J Hodges| OR: 62| CD

12/1

Ten-time winner but well held over C&D penultimate outing and again since over further around this track. Has more to prove than a few of these.

Forecasts

Red Force One (5/4), Rastacap (13/8), Wink Oliver (13/2), Rippling Waters (8/1), Mister Musicmaster (12/1)

RIPPLING WATERS has posted a couple of solid efforts on the level just recently, including when chasing home a decisive winner and taking a clear second last time out. This is a modest affair seemingly and she could be the answer. Wink Oliver produced a better showing at Newbury recently and may threaten while Red Force One has to be feared on the back of a good showing at Chester this month. Chepstow winner Rastacap faces a tough task on the revised terms if hoping to follow up.
