Selected odds by:

(1)

Duchess Of Avon²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss Katy Brooks⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 62| D

11/4

Suited by quick ground and won over this trip at Brighton in May off 4lb lower. Ran to a similar level the next twice before struggling in much stronger company last time. Likely to bounce back down in grade.

Form: 091327

(2)

Air Of York^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Miss Arabella Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 61| C

9/1

Winner of 12 career starts and back on last winning mark over this C&D in May. Inconsistent since but more than capable of being involved down in class.

Form: 388537

(5)

Lunar Deity¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: Miss Julia Engstrom⁽⁷⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 57| D

11/1

Veteran has won 15 from 93 starts and now 7lb lower than last winning turf mark. Form has been hard to predict this year but went close over this distance at Yarmouth latest.

Form: 273762

(3)

Huddle²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Miss Sophie Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: W J Knight| OR: 60

4/1

Stoutly bred sort who may need a stiffer test although her finishing effort over this trip was pretty tame last time on the AW. Prior handicap form presents a rather mixed bag and doesn't look progressive.

Form: 548545

(7)

Haraz¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: Miss Megan Trainor⁽⁵⁾| T: P Butler| OR: 53| CD

16/1

Up 3lb after gaining just a second career win from 53 starts when winning over this C&D at 100/1 recently. Quicker ground no concern and has the same winning rider, but his inconsistency does raise some doubts.

Form: 893001

(4)

Letmestopyouthere^p⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Miss Brodie Hampson| T: A Watson| OR: 52

3/1

Twice a winner at Yarmouth over this trip in 2018 and mark has plummeted since. Better third last time but overall form this year has been inconsistent. Tends to be well backed and costly to follow.

Form: 277073

(10)

Frank's Legacy^p,t¹⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Miss Jessica Llewellyn⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs N S Evans| OR: 51

66/1

Out of sorts since winning for Ivan Furtado on Ladies Day at Newcastle in July 2018 and beaten 42L on stable and season debut in March. Not seen since and remains best watched.

Form: 55008-0

(6)

Bayards Cove²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Miss S L Bowen⁽³⁾| T: W S Kittow| OR: 45

12/1

Remains a maiden following 11 starts has shown mixed form this year but is at least suited by very fast conditions. Some improvement needed to be involved.

Form: 9-37548

(8)

Silvington^p1¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Miss Imogen Mathias⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 45

33/1

Regressive 23-race maiden continues to be well beaten and shows no signs of being able get anywhere near a breakthrough success. Easy to dismiss.

Form: 658000

(9)

Clipsham Tiger^p²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Miss Serena Brotherton| T: M Appleby| OR: 45

10/1

Eight-race maiden ran a career best third in a slowly run affair over this trip at Bath. Didn't get a clear run there and suited by these conditions. More needed again but with a good yard and support would be interesting.

Form: 947-903

Forecasts

Duchess Of Avon (11/4), Letmestopyouthere (3/1), Huddle (4/1), Air Of York (9/1), Clipsham Tiger (10/1), Lunar Deity (11/1), Bayards Cove (12/1), Haraz (16/1), Silvington (33/1), Frank's Legacy (66/1)

DUCHESS OF AVON was pitched against a much stronger class last time and will be much better suited by a return to this grade with fast ground suiting. Things may have clicked with Clipsham Tiger last time and in a race lacking depth, he'd be interesting if able to kick on from it. Lunar Deity can be hard to predict but is at least well handicapped following a decent effort.
