Cominginonmonday²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Sean Kirrane⁽⁷⁾| T: R Brisland

33/1

Dandy Man-filly who cost just €3,000 as a yearling. 50/1 and well beaten on this month's debut and plenty of improvement required. Stable struggling for winners at present.

Form: 5

Melrose Way⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: C Lee| T: J D Bethell| D

8/1

Daughter of Mayson made a winning debut in a weak 6f affair at Pontefract and probably ran to a similar standard when well held over 7f here. More needed in this company and different ground to contend with.

Form: 15

Metal Exchange¹¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S H James| T: K A Ryan

12/1

Daughter of Helmet made a winning debut on the AW in January but then very disappointing in subsequent start. Makes turf debut and plenty to prove now in these conditions.

Form: 19

Arriba De Toda⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁷⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 44

40/1

Remains a 10-race maiden and had been struggling until matching his best at Musselburgh latest. Still needs an awful lot of improvement off these terms and ground an unknown.

Hawk In The Sky⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Nathan Evans| T: R M Whitaker

33/1

£13,000 yearling. Half-brother to four winners of sprints, out of a 5f winner. Tailed off at 50/1 on April debut and best watched until signs of ability.

Form: 8

(9)

Wearraah²⁰⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: A D Brown| OR: 39

50/1

Gelded son of Heeraat sent off 66/1, 100/1 and 200/1 in three tailed off starts to date. Impossible to make any sort of case for.

Form: 050-

Fashionesque³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Beasley| T: Rae Guest

5/1

Fast Company filly ran on nicely despite greenness with a good third on fast ground on York's May debut. Encounters different ground but with improvement that run would put her right in contention.

Form: 3

(5)

Final Legacy⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw

66/1

Coach House filly whose dam was a 5f winner for this yard. Showed little on this month's debut over 5f and this would need a huge transformation.

Form: 6

(3)

Jungle Secret¹⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Murtagh⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey

11/2

Bungle Inthejungle filly that cost £10,500 as a yearling. Half-sister to 9 winners including stable sprinter Alben Star. Has run to a similar standard in two starts so far but plenty more needed. Stable won this race last year.

Form: 2-3

(13)

Musical Sky⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: A Mullen| T: M Dods| OR: 67WS

12/1

Has raced exclusively on soft ground and her second at Carlisle last year sets a good standard. Well below that and failed to beat a rival home in two very poor handicap starts since. Returns from wind surgery.

Form: 8429-0

Quirky Gertie¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Hollie Doyle| T: M R Channon| OR: 65| BF

5/4

Daughter of Fast Company has shown a similar level of form in three solid starts to date. Seems to prefer cut in the ground. Odds on and looked the winner over 7f latest but probably suited by drop in trip. A win doesn't look far away.

Form: 4-53

(8)

Raksha¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: R P Downey| T: D O'Meara

13/2

Dandy Man filly; mare who won at 1m2f. Mixed messages over trip on pedigree but hails from good yard. Two solid efforts in maiden company so far but more needed in this company.

Form: 43

Non-Runners

Forecasts

Quirky Gertie (5/4), Fashionesque (5/1), Jungle Secret (11/2), Raksha (13/2), Melrose Way (8/1), Metal Exchange (12/1), Musical Sky (12/1), Fortamour (16/1), Hawk In The Sky (33/1), Cominginonmonday (33/1), Arriba De Toda (40/1), Wearraah (50/1), Final Legacy (66/1)

Fashionesque should only improve for her promising debut and be in contention if handling this ground. QUIRKY GERTIE looks well suited by this distance and by the ground and a win is in the waiting. Musical Sky would be interesting with market support following wind surgery.
