Sip And Smile⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: R Coakley| T: G Boughey| OR: 77

7/4

Lightly-raced winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Good third of 13 in handicap (11/1) at Ascot (8f, good) 8 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Should remain competitive.

Form: 11643

(5)

Mistrix^h1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽⁷⁾| T: George Scott| OR: 76| D

13/2

Lightly-raced winner. Creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good, 12/1) 21 days ago. Looks the type to benefit from a first-time hood, and could have more in the locker.

Form: 2210-4

(9)

Star Zinc³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: J P Spencer| T: C Fellowes| OR: 75

4/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 13 in novice (7/1) at Kempton (7f) 38 days ago, finishing with running left. Strikes as a likely improver switched to handicaps.

Form: 24-5

(1)

Definitive Force^p²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 75| C

11/4

3/1, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this course (6f, good to firm) 21 days ago, slowly away. Return to this trip holds no fears, and his stable is flying at the moment, so strong claims.

Form: 71-4421

(6)

Baileys Accolade²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 72

28/1

Fair winner as a 2yo but hasn't fired as yet this term. Looks up against it in a competitive affair.

Form: 2213-57

(8)

La Feile¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey| OR: 72

33/1

Fair form as a juvenile but her mark isn't lenient, and she was only fifth at Beverley on reappearance. Others make more appeal.

Form: 16490-5

(4)

Shaladar^p²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: O McSweeney⁽⁵⁾| T: K A Ryan| OR: 71

12/1

Ninth of 13 in handicap (11/1) at Leicester (7f, good) 21 days ago, hampered. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive.

Form: 43205-9

(3)

Trust Bertie¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 71

18/1

Thrice-raced winner. 18/1, last of 6 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good) 12 days ago. Others make more appeal for all he's still unexposed.

Form: 15-6

Forecasts

Sip And Smile (7/4), Definitive Force (11/4), Star Zinc (4/1), Macchiavello (11/2), Mistrix (13/2), Shaladar (12/1), Trust Bertie (18/1), Baileys Accolade (28/1), La Feile (33/1)

STAR ZINC caught the eye on his qualifying run at Kempton last month and, with Jamie Spencer booked, he could improve enough to overcome an opening mark of 75. The bang-in-form Definitive Force is an obvious danger and Sip And Smile should be on the premises again.
