Good Earth¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne| OR: 70

15/8

Runner-up effort at Lingfield (5f; standard to slow) last time was franked by the third at Windsor on Monday. Most exposed in this field, but yard have had a couple run well this week without winning so he should feature to some extent.

Form: 25425-2

Our Lad¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rob Hornby| T: M R Channon

40/1

This is easier than the two events he has contested so far (won by First Receiver and Manigordo). However, he is difficult to recommend after finishing 21 lengths behind the front pair last time. Drop to 5f needs to work miracles.

Form: 93

Shoot To Kill^p1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Shepherd| T: George Scott| OR: 70| BF

4/1

0-7 and now running out of chances. Turned over as an odds-on shot (10-11f) when runner-up at Wolverhampton (5f; standard) on first attempt at this trip. That didn't look an overly strong race on paper, and he is vulnerable to improvers.

Form: 6206-42

Villain's Voice¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 75

13/8

May have needed the run when fifth on his seasonal return at Chelmsford (6f; standard). The form doesn't quite match that of his debut run when third at Yarmouth (6f; good to firm) last year. Worth another chance with yard in form.

Form: 3-5

(5)

Kyllishi¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P Cosgrave| T: George Baker

50/1

Didn't show a great deal on debut when only eight of 11 at Kempton (6f; standard to slow). Looks the outsider of the field given others have shown vastly more than her. Remains best watched for the time being.

Form: 8

Tuscan Oasis^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox

6/1

Oasis Dream filly. Half-sister to eight winners including talented 1m-1m2f Group 2 winner Bocca Bacciata. Sole newcomer in the field but doesn't have an overly high standard to aim at on debut. Interesting contender so check market vibes.

After failing to get off the mark at the seventh attempt when ran down late on, Shoot To Kill seemingly had no excuses when second last time. Similar comments apply to Good Earth, though the form of his Lingfield reverse on his seasonal comeback is respectful with the third having franked the form. One who can be given another choice is Villain's Voice who disappointed when last seen, but the stable are in much better form now. In a race where the standard isn't daunting though, a chance is taken on the newcomer TUSCAN OASIS. This filly looks the part on paper and she can make the most of the 5lb she receives from all bar one of her rivals.
