Northern Express²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: M Dods| OR: 88| BF| CD

11/2

C&D winner. 10/3, creditable sixth of 13 in C&D handicap (good to soft) 20 days ago, running on. Capable of having a big say if things drop right.

Form: 818-226

(12)

Woven³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 88| CD

16/1

Just 1-27 but the win did come over C&D. Good second first 2 outings this term but needs shrug off a poor run here in cheekpeices (off now) last time.

Form: 002-220

(17)

Orbaan^t⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 87| C

9/2

On a long losing run but looked unlucky over 1m here last month and shaped well again when third of 15 over 7f at Epsom on Friday. Threatening to come good soon but the draw could have been kinder here.

Form: 2-80093

(10)

Wizard D'Amour²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 87| D

11/2

Latest win at Catterick in April. Respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good, 3/1) 27 days ago. Can give another good account of himself.

Form: 2-23124

(8)

Russco²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Jim Crowley| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 87| D

9/1

Thrived as a 3-y-o. winning 5 times. Creditable reappearance third of 12 at Haydock (7f) 20 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up again.

Form: 11110-3

(13)

Seven Brothers⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 85| C| D

10/1

Course winner. Won on 7f Doncaster reappearance in March but only a respectable third of 5 back there since. Others preferred.

Form: 0279-13

Queen's Sargent²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: M Dods| OR: 84| D

80/1

Well held both starts this year and watching brief advised until showing more.

Form: 7015-77

(2)

Tammani²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: D O'Meara| OR: 84| D

7/2

Smart in his prime and caught the eye when fourth of 18 over C&D under James Doyle last time, unlucky not to finish closer after meeting plenty of trouble. That suggests he can win off his mark.

Form: 8004-44

(1)

Poet's Magic¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 82| D

16/1

Three wins in productive 2021. Shaped as if needing run when seventh of 11 on C&D return 19 days ago and should be back close to form this time. Respected from a handy draw.

Form: 21320-7

(16)

Royal Musketeer²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 82| D

33/1

Good start for new yard, posting a career best to win 9-runner handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) 28 days ago, driven out. 6 lb rise fair enough but a high draw could make life tricky.

Form: 54U4-51

(14)

Fiftyshadesofred³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 81| D

33/1

Winner at Newcastle (7f, AW) on yard debut/reappearance in March. Missed the break and met trouble when down the field at Hamilton since so he's best not judged too harshly on that.

Form: 0/286-10

(4)

Cisco Disco¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 79| D

66/1

First run since leaving Jack Davison when last of 12 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good to firm, 20/1) 18 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot in a short time.

Form: 35092-0

(9)

Ugo Gregory^p,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 78| CD

16/1

C&D winner. Best run this season when third of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. On a winning mark and respected.

Form: 10-8093

(6)

Barney's Bay¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 72

28/1

Creditable third of 6 in handicap at Carlisle (7f, good to firm, 7/2) 14 days ago. More needed in this stronger race.

Form: 085-853

(3)

Tommy Taylor²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 8-6| J: Barry McHugh| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 71| CD

40/1

C&D winner but down the field here on latest start 3 weeks ago. Others arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 758500

Ebury⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 8-5| J: Jack Duern⁽³⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 70

16/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2019. 14/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) on reappearance 7 days ago. Well treated if he can build on that.

Forecasts

Tammani (7/2), Orbaan (9/2), Northern Express (11/2), Wizard D'Amour (11/2), Russco (9/1), Seven Brothers (10/1), Stone Soldier (10/1), Wobwobwob (12/1), Woven (16/1), Ebury (16/1), Poet's Magic (16/1), Ugo Gregory (16/1), Barney's Bay (28/1), Royal Musketeer (33/1), Fiftyshadesofred (33/1), Tommy Taylor (40/1), Cisco Disco (66/1), Queen's Sargent (80/1)

The David O'Meara yard is no stranger to success in this contest and TAMMANI looks the pick here on the back of his eye-catching performance over C&D at the Dante meeting. Ugo Gregory looked on the way back at Beverley last time and heads the dangers along with Wizard d'Amour and Poet's Magic. The selection's stablemate Orbaan can also make his presence felt if a wide stall isn't too troublesome.
