Bollin Joan^p⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 91| CD

10/11

In the form of her life last month, scoring at York and over C&D. Shaped as if still in good form when fifth in Zetland Gold Cup at Redcar but saw her effort petering out somewhat back up in trip at York 5 days ago. Fancied to be bang there back down to this trip.

4/1

11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, better than ever after 8 months off when winning 6-runner handicap at Chepstow (10f, good to firm) 20 days ago, suited by way race developed. 5 lb rise to contend with but expected to feature once again.

Form: 11237-1

Urban War^p¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: K Stott| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 80| C

10/3

Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. Returned to form with a career-best effort when second of 7 in handicap at Bath (8f, good to firm, 5/1) 13 days ago, clear of rest. Back up in trip. Gone close several times from higher marks than this so may well feature.

Form: 256-882

Society Red³²

Age: 8| Weight: 8-13| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 80| D

16/1

Form was up and down on turf last term but resurgent on all-weather this winter, gaining third victory at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in February. However he's shaped as if amiss on his last couple of outings (latest over C&D) so has a bit to prove all of a sudden.

Forecasts

Bollin Joan (10/11), Urban War (10/3), Commonsensical (4/1), Cosmos Raj (10/1), Society Red (16/1)

A tricky contest to unravel despite the small field but 4-time course winner BOLLIN JOAN is selected to come out on top having taken her form up a notch in recent weeks. Commonsensical looked better than ever when making a winning reappearance on first start for Hugo Palmer last month so he can give the selection most to think about, with Urban War third choice.
