Selected odds by:

(9)

Victoriano^b1⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁵⁾| T: A Watson| OR: 60

12/1

Showed little in trio of maidens at two and didn't show a great deal in cheek pieces after gelding operation on comeback run. Blinkers now on for step up in trip again.

Form: 667-4

(3)

Swerved²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Robinson⁽³⁾| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 60

15/2

Didn't look as though he truly stayed 1m4f at Southwell on reappearance and stamina has to be taken on trust over further now.

Form: 394-4

(6)

Blowing Dixie¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Adam J McNamara| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 60

7/2

Gradually stepped up in trip but hasn't really improved for it and modest form to date. In good hands and may be more to come at some time.

Form: 904-7

(4)

Thomas Cubitt²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Louis Steward| T: M L W Bell| OR: 60

3/1

Slowly into stride three runs at up to 1m2f and has showed little to date but now handicapping on big step up in distance and could improve for it.

Form: 896

(2)

Surrey Breeze^b1⁶⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: A Mullen| T: A Watson| OR: 57

16/1

Has only beaten three rivals in a trip of maidens up to 1m4f to date. Now handicapping for good stable so could be more to come but needs to be.

Form: 7-57

(8)

Tabou Beach Boy^p1²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Nathan Evans| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 56

8/1

Headed last stride when beaten at Wolverhampton over 1m2f in January and that is the closest any of these have come to a victory. Didn't improve for trying this trip at Wetherby and cheek pieces now go on.

Form: 906-234

(12)

Spiritual Boy¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 56

12/1

Bets effort in five tries was a 4L fourth in 1m handicap here on penultimate run. Not bred to stay this far and now goes beyond 1m2f for the first time.

Form: 868-49

(7)

Agravain⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 55

14/1

Very little to date including when tried over 1m4f last week but trainer often gets improvers at this sort of trip so may not be one to dismiss.

Form: 799-79

(5)

Langholm^t1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: C J MacRedmond⁽⁷⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 53

28/1

Was keen when trying 1m for the first time on latest and hard to believe that this 6f longer distance is what he wants. Tongue tie needs to help.

Form: 070-0

(11)

Well Funded²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P Hanagan| T: J D Bethell| OR: 53

13/2

Has tried this trip and didn't run too badly when 9L third to a subsequent winner at Wetherby last month. That form reads well enough in a contest like this and has to be on the short list.

Form: 85-53

(1)

Lucky Circle¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: C Lee| T: P D Evans| OR: 52

28/1

Big prices all starts and no better when stepped up to 1m2f in a handicap on latest. Needs to improve a good deal for this try at much longer trip.

Form: 898-0

Forecasts

Thomas Cubitt (3/1), Blowing Dixie (7/2), Well Funded (13/2), Swerved (15/2), Tabou Beach Boy (8/1), Victoriano (12/1), Spiritual Boy (12/1), Miss Green Dream (12/1), Agravain (14/1), Surrey Breeze (16/1), Langholm (28/1), Lucky Circle (28/1)

A new trip for the vast majority of these and some will improve for it but there is hardly any worthwhile on form on the table and making out a solid case for anything is not easy. WELL FUNDED gets a tentative vote as she showed a bit when third at this trip last time. With some big yards represented there will be some improvers and Thomas Cubitt and Blowing Dixie are the pair most likely to.
