Parikarma¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 64

11/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2019. 10/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, firm) 17 days ago, not ideally placed. Back down in trip.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 64| D

11/4

Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Kempton (1m) under Hollie Doyle 27 days ago. Ought to remain competitive after a 6 lb rise.

Form: 345751

Cambridgeshire⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: H Crouch| T: M Meade| OR: 70

5/1

Galileo filly who has yet to build on her debut promise but it is still early days and handicaps provide her with a more realistic chance of success.

Form: 389

Fashion Free^h¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: W Buick| T: M Appleby| OR: 62| D

9/2

Shaped well when second over C&D last month and not seen to best effect when fourth at Newmarket since. Player under Buick.

Nothingbuttrouble³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 68

13/2

Fair maiden. Respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Tipperary (9f, good to firm) 34 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Dermot Weld. Betting perhaps the best guide to what's expected.

Form: 057668

(5)

Light Of Thunder²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: G Lee| T: C G Cox| OR: 67

15/2

Thrice-raced maiden. Offered some encouragement when not beaten far at Goodwood on her second start. Rates a likely improver in handicaps for in-form yard.

Form: 576

Alyara²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽⁵⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 66

17/2

Third in a 9f Hamilton maiden in June but needs to bounce back from a disappointing run on her Carlisle handicap debut 26 days ago.

Form: 0537

(2)

Sobriquet¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: E De Giles| OR: 59

10/1

No significant impact in handicaps on her last 2 starts and will need to up her game to get heavily involved.

Form: 72/855

Forecasts

Far From A Ruby (11/4), Fashion Free (9/2), Cambridgeshire (5/1), Nothingbuttrouble (13/2), Light Of Thunder (15/2), Alyara (17/2), Sobriquet (10/1), Parikarma (11/1)

LIGHT OF THUNDER has quite a useful pedigree and it might be worth chancing her to take a step forward now handicapping for a stable among the winners. Fashion Free has William Buick taking over in the saddle and will be a threat if reproducing the form she showed when a close second here last month. Far From A Ruby should also get involved.
