Auckland Lodge^v1²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 61| CD

10/1

10/1, last of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good) 22 days ago. Appeared to be coming to the boil prior to that, and 2-2 over this C&D, she'll be a threat if the first-time visor does the trick.

Form: 75-7448

(6)

Captain Corcoran^h⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Russell⁽³⁾| T: E J Alston| OR: 61| CD

15/2

C&D winner. Last of 6 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to soft, 5/1) 6 days ago. Hood back on and while he's capable of a bold show off this mark, others make more appeal on balance.

Form: 142-486

(8)

Mews House⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 59| D

2/1

Last of 7 in handicap (14/1) at Brighton (5.3f, good) 62 days ago, doing too much too soon. First run for yard after leaving Adam West and needs to bounce back, but he has slipped to a dangerous mark.

Form: 5790-77

(2)

Refuge^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Harrison Shaw| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 59| D

7/2

4/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Nudged up 2 lb, but his turn is surely near and another prominent showing is anticipated.

Form: 024422

(1)

King Crimson¹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: J Butler| OR: 59| BF| CD

3/1

C&D winner on penultimate start. 85/40, good second of 9 in handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Remains on a fair mark and this 9-y-o has to enter calculations.

Form: 970-012

(5)

Ruby Wonder²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Ben Robinson| T: P T Midgley| OR: 57

33/1

First run since leaving David O'Meara when seventh of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good, 25/1) 22 days ago. Needs to find improvement from somewhere.

Form: 203/35-7

(7)

Mrs Bagerran¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: T Eaves| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 55

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, soft, 18/1) 10 days ago and she has plenty to find on form.

Form: 0977

(4)

Orchid Rose¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Crook| OR: 48

11/1

Ninth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 33/1) 14 days ago, not clear run. While she's not a forlorn hope, others look more solid overall.

Form: 647309

Forecasts

Mews House (2/1), King Crimson (3/1), Refuge (7/2), Captain Corcoran (15/2), Auckland Lodge (10/1), Orchid Rose (11/1), Mrs Bagerran (28/1), Ruby Wonder (33/1)

Though he's very much the veteran of the party, KING CRIMSON proved that he retains plenty of dash when scoring over C&D earlier this month. John Butler's charge was just touched off at Brighton 3 days later and, still on a favourable mark, he is taken to get his head back in front. Refuge has been knocking on the door of late and should be in the mix, but Auckland Lodge is second choice.
