Course winner. 80/1, fared little better back sprinting when fifth of 8 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

28/1
Lightly-raced maiden. Seemed unsuited by the track on first run for this yard when fifth of 8 in handicap at Epsom (7f, good to firm, 5/1) 9 days ago, not unduly punished. Worth another chance.

Ran creditably up against better-treated rivals when fifth of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm, 17/2) 16 days ago. Now 0-12 and may again find one or two too good.

SKY BLUE THINKING has been a revelation since joining Adam West, completing a quick-fire hat-trick (including victory over this C&D) last month. She gets the vote to make it 4 on the spin and maintain her unbeaten record for this yard carrying the penalty. Miss Bella Brand, Romulan Prince and Trusty Scout look the main dangers in that order.

  1. SKY BLUE THINKING
  2. MISS BELLA BRAND
  3. ROMULAN PRINCE
