Trailblazer^b1²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽⁵⁾| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 75

17/2

Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 11 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, good to firm, 5/1) 29 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Mark looks stiff enough on handicap debut.

Form: 735

Maggie And Me²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: David Probert| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 75

7/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Stepped up on reappearance when third of 7 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 11/4) 22 days ago. Makes handicap debut and appeals as the type to do better in this company.

Form: 2-53

(4)

Let's Fly Again¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Fahy| T: C G Cox| OR: 73

7/1

Well-bred sort reached fairly useful level on first 2 handicap starts but raced too freely when last of 6 at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 16 days ago. No surprise if he's able to get back on track.

Form: 594-246

Badr²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S Donohoe| T: W J Haggas| OR: 72

11/4

Thrice-raced maiden. First run since leaving Kevin Ryan when sixth of 13 in maiden (10/3) at Chelmsford City (7f) 29 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not taken lightly.

Form: 74-6

(6)

Laguna Veneta¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 70| D

11/8

Produced a career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Leicester (8.2f, good) 13 days ago, impressing with sharp turn of foot. On the upgrade and looks the one to beat again.

Form: 7-43631

(3)

Blue Collar Lad¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: William Carson| T: R Brisland| OR: 62| C

18/1

Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Sixth of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Leicester (7f, good) 13 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 863-866

(8)

Aurora Papillon^p1³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: George Rooke| T: B J Meehan| OR: 56

50/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Hasn't made any impact in maiden/minor events and doesn't appeal as one to make a winning start in handicaps.

Form: 875

Forecasts

Laguna Veneta (11/8), Badr (11/4), Atomise (11/2), Let's Fly Again (7/1), Maggie And Me (7/1), Trailblazer (17/2), Blue Collar Lad (18/1), Aurora Papillon (50/1)

LAGUNA VENETA was impressive at Leicester last time and a 7 lb rise shouldn't be enough to stop her from following up. Handicap debutants Badr and Maggie And Me are feared most.
