Strike Me A Pose^p1¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason⁽³⁾| T: A Watson| OR: 65| BF

11/2

Fair form in 3 outings over 5f in recent months, including on AW. Has carried his head a little awkwardly and cheekpieces are now added for handicap debut. Unexposed.

Form: 224

(3)

Pretty Shiftwell^t²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 61| D

7/2

Winner at Wolverhampton in June. 12/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 24 days ago, never nearer. Being dropped another 2 lb can only help.

Form: 341364

(7)

Toplight^b⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 59| D

4/1

7/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5f) 41 days ago, keeping on well. Likely to remain competitive after a 5 lb rise.

Form: 038451

Storm Melody^b⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: R Havlin| T: A Stronge| OR: 57

16/5

Runner-up at Wolverhampton last month and filled the same position over C&D last week. Refitted blinkers replace usual cheekpieces. Major player.

Form: 004522

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Rhys Clutterbuck⁽⁵⁾| T: C Wallis| OR: 57| D

18/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in March (final start for Mick Appleby). Been operating a little below that level for this yard since. Tongue strap on first time.

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Theodore Ladd⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 54| CD

10/3

Three-time C&D winner but not most reliable. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Eighth of 12 here (6f) when last seen in May. Tongue strap on first time with cheekpieces refitted.

Form: 6598-38

(4)

Tilsworth Rose^b¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Ray Dawson| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 50| CD

28/1

C&D winner last month but only sixth of 8 back here since.

Forecasts

Storm Melody (16/5), Jorvik Prince (10/3), Pretty Shiftwell (7/2), Toplight (4/1), Strike Me A Pose (11/2), Lorna Cole (18/1), Tilsworth Rose (28/1)

STORM MELODY has been knocking on the door so will hold a good chance if a change of headgear gives him just a little bit extra. Strike Me A Pose has looked a little awkward on occasions but is unexposed now handicapping for a good stable and looks next best of Wolverhampton winner Toplight.
