Jelly Monger³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: B A Curtis| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 79

10/1

Only win on the Flat came on debut back in 2014 and had become disappointing before a better run at Goodwood. Returns from a spin over hurdles and is off an attractive mark but ideally would want further.

Form: 7397-55

Voi^t³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: M Dwyer| T: C Allen| OR: 74

20/1

Proved disappointing on her last two starts and now back to last winning mark. That however came over further and she may not get a strong enough pace to suit her racing style.

Form: 321454

Tobruk²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: N Mackay| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 82

9/4

Finished third in a strong Chelmsford contest before breaking through on just her third start. Physically open to plenty of progress so is only likely to improve with time for powerful connections. A leading contender on handicap debut.

Form: 031

Bossiney Bay²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Dane O'Neill| T: H Morrison| OR: 72

8/1

Yet to place in five starts but has shown enough to suggest she can be competitive off this mark. Has lacked a turn of foot late on and perhaps she will come into her own over further than this.

Form: 0-5536

(2)

Gravina¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: David Probert| T: A King| OR: 72| D

5/4

Placed third in two races which have worked out well before making all at HQ last time. Up 4lb but she could be ahead of the handicapper and may be hard to peg back again.

Form: 0-5331

(5)

Livvys Dream^h⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: William Carson| T: C Hills| OR: 67| BF| C

15/2

Ran on strongly here to win with give in the ground that suggested this step up in trip should suit. Subsequently disappointed on very quick ground but a line can be put through that and she could bounce back on this easier surface.

Form: 75-915

Forecasts

Gravina (5/4), Tobruk (9/4), Livvys Dream (15/2), Bossiney Bay (8/1), Jelly Monger (10/1), Voi (20/1)

A small field and a possible lack of competition for the lead should prove ideal for GRAVINA whose form has been progressive to date and remains on a very attractive mark. The handicapper may take some time to catch up with her while Tobruk likewise has taken a step forward on each of her three starts and should have more to come now going handicapping. Of the hold up horses Livvys Dream is less likely to be unsuited if this becomes tactical and can bounce back from her last start.
