Selected odds by:

(1)

Ebqaa^p¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: A Mullen| T: J W Unett| OR: 68

12/1

In good form on the AW and handles cut in the ground back on turf. Any rain would be a bonus and she remains on a competitive mark. Likely to be involved again.

Form: 90-1352

(13)

Reassurance^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 67

8/1

Eight-race maiden left James Tate and was entitled to need the run on stable debut following a 219-day absence. Falling to an attractive mark but has shown a clear preference for faster conditions.

Form: 25043-5

(6)

Joie De Vivre²⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: P Hanagan| T: M Todhunter| OR: 67

33/1

Twice-placed from five starts for Richard Fahey and since sold for £5,800 from the ownership of Sir Robert Ogden. More needed on stable debut and any rain would provide a query.

Form: 36534-

(10)

Shambra^h³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: G Lee| T: L Wadham| OR: 63

5/1

Not disgraced on return from hurdling when third at Goodwood last month. Drop of 2lb puts her on a decent mark, remains lightly-raced on the Flat and any rain would bring her right into contention.

Form: 33941/3

(4)

Lilypad^v1²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 62

8/1

Remains a maiden after five starts albeit racing to a consistent level of form. May have needed season reappearance and an easier surface, a first-time visor and a drop of 2lb should see her competitive.

Form: 8335-6

(11)

Fayetta^v1¹⁰⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: T E Whelan| T: D Loughnane| OR: 69

16/1

Yet to win after eight starts but proving consistent in most recent six AW efforts for this stable. Cheekpieces replaced by a first-time visor and a chance although conditions are an unknown factor.

Form: 32-4343

(8)

Gold Fleece²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Cieren Fallon⁽⁷⁾| T: H Palmer| OR: 68

7/4

Nathaniel filly has improved in each of her first four starts and ran well from a rear position at Windsor on handicap debut. Still looked green and bred to improve over a distance so this extra half furlong should suit. Rates a leading contender.

Form: 6-523

(5)

Osmosis¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: C J McGovern⁽³⁾| T: J Ward| OR: 68

11/1

Consistent maiden in six starts to date and not disgraced in better company at York. Not dismissed back in grade but any rain would pose a question with this step up in distance.

Form: 644-344

(7)

Lincoln Tale¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Cam Hardie| T: D O'Meara| OR: 65| D

10/1

Off the mark when winning in a lower grade over this distance at Beverley but well held off this 5lb higher mark when upped to this class at Doncaster. An easier surface could suit so may bounce back to better form.

Form: 946-319

(3)

Fillydelphia^p,h²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 8-9| J: Rachel Richardson| T: L Bailey| OR: 45| D

80/1

Just two wins from 41 starts on turf and out of form last twice (one on the Flat and latterly over hurdles). Rain would help but this grade looks tough for her and hard to fancy.

Form: 4470-58

(2)

Swerved²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Andrew Breslin⁽⁵⁾| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 57

14/1

Five-race maiden would be well handicapped based on her debut third but below that in four starts since. Struggled in two handicap starts this season and others preferred. Stable won the first two of three renewals of this race.

Form: 394-47

Sweet Marmalade¹⁴

Weight: 8-13| Age: 5

T: Mrs Stella Barclay J: Ben Robinson

Forecasts

Gold Fleece (7/4), Shambra (5/1), Lilypad (8/1), Reassurance (8/1), Lincoln Tale (10/1), Sweet Marmalade (10/1), Osmosis (11/1), Ebqaa (12/1), Swerved (14/1), Fayetta (16/1), Joie De Vivre (33/1), Wedding Breakfast (33/1), Fillydelphia (80/1)

Ebqaa is respected in an open race as she looks to transfer a good run of AW form back onto the turf. GOLD FLEECE was always likely to improve as she met a greater test of stamina and has shaped as though she has considerable improvement to come. Lilypad also has more to offer and conditions to suit while heavy rain would make Shambra interesting.
