Seafarer^b⁶⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: M Dwyer| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 91

9/2

Consistent enough sort who handles most conditions apart from very soft. Last win came in a Class 2 contest off 1lb lower over 1m4f. Should have little difficulty staying this far and his yard do well here.

Form: 1523-55

Machine Learner^v¹⁸⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Megan Nicholls⁽³⁾| T: J Tuite| OR: 89| D

9/1

Can go well following a break and he is suited to this trip and any going. Just 2lb higher than when scoring at Ascot last term and better treated than on last four outings.

Bayshore Freeway¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 86| BF| C

1/2

Twice a winner in three starts in Class 3s and placed in the other. Has winning track form, proven at the trip and handles a fast surface. Will be all the better for last month's reappearance after eight months off and looks the one to beat.

Form: 14133-2

Cry Wolf¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: R Havlin| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 81| D

7/1

All four wins have come on artificial surfaces and he has been produced with promising looking challenges on last two starts only to find less than anticipated. Still to make the frame from a mark of 80 or above and that may be the issue.

Forecasts

Bayshore Freeway (1/2), Smart Champion (5/2), Seafarer (9/2), Cry Wolf (7/1), Machine Learner (9/1)

BAYSHORE FREEWAY will relish the conditions if they remain as fast as forecast and she is taken to build on the promise of her reappearance on which she holds Cry Wolf. Seafarer is a consistent enough sort, but he will need to be ridden more positively than was the case on his last run over this trip given the likelihood of a muddling pace. Smart Champion starts the season on a good mark and with his stable in good form, whilst Machine Learner can go well fresh but may need his mark to drop a little more before getting competitive.
