Mister Bluebird^p³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S De Sousa| T: H Main| OR: 74| D

11/4

Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Ffos Las (5f, good to soft, 5/1) 31 days ago by 1¼ lengths from The Daley Express, keeping on well. Rates a live player again with a repeat.

Mayelf^v1⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J P Sullivan| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 70

25/1

Eighth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 9 days ago, slowly away. Application of a visor needs to have a positive effect now.

Form: 246548

The Daley Express^p³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: T E Whelan| T: R Harris| OR: 70| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Creditable 1¼ lengths second of 11 to Mister Bluebird in handicap (9/2) at Ffos Las (5f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 452342

Cuban Breeze^p²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: M Quinn| OR: 69| D

25/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2020. 14/1, first run since leaving Tom Dascombe when last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 20 days ago. Possible he'll strip fitter for that run here.

Form: 526388

(4)

Harrogate²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 68| D

8/1

Gained third success of the year at Ripon (5f) in August. Not disgraced subsequently, never a threat from his high draw at Redcar at the start of the month. Not one to write off.

Form: 131740

(5)

Fine Wine^b⁷³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 68| D

16/1

Dual winner of French claimers last summer (at up to 5.5f). Not disgraced on return/yard debut at Southwell in April, but well beaten both subsequent outings at that venue.

Form: 211-579

(9)

Impressor^p²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 67

14/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2019. Eleventh of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Ayr (6f, soft) 20 days ago, going off too hard. Another who may be sharper with that run under his belt.

Form: 970480

(11)

Zapper Cass^v²³

Age: 8| Weight: 8-13| J: Theodore Ladd⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 66| C| D

8/1

Untrustworthy individual. Course winner. 28/1, last of 17 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 23 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 654470

(8)

Lordsbridge Boy²²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: R Winston| T: W J Knight| OR: 66| D

9/2

Creditable third of 8 in handicap at Leicester (6f, heavy, 9/2) 22 days ago, the fact he went freely under testing conditions possibly catching him out. Not discounted.

Form: 227203

(7)

Stroxx²⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 63

7/1

Maiden, who wasn't disgraced when fifth of 13 in handicap on return at Redcar (6f, good to firm) in April. However, been absent again since and others make more appeal despite sliding mark.

Form: 4/7945-5

(10)

Silver Diva^b⁸⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Aled Beech⁽⁵⁾| T: J Gallagher| OR: 51

28/1

Blinkered for 1st time, well held tenth of 14 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, soft, 14/1) 88 days ago, weakening final 1f. Remains a maiden and others rate stronger on balance.

Form: 345350

Forecasts

Mister Bluebird (11/4), Lordsbridge Boy (9/2), The Daley Express (5/1), Stroxx (7/1), Harrogate (8/1), Zapper Cass (8/1), Impressor (14/1), Fine Wine (16/1), Cuban Breeze (25/1), Mayelf (25/1), Silver Diva (28/1)

MISTER BLUEBIRD took another step forward in form terms when resuming winning ways at Ffos Las 31 days ago and he may be up to defying a 5 lb higher mark and going in again. The runner-up that day The Daley Express is also fancied to go well again and can feature. Lordsbridge Boy completes the shortlist.
