Selected odds by:

Bullace^b¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett| OR: 90| D

2/1

Useful sort who was perked up by blinkers when a back-to-form second at this course two weeks ago. Solid claims if the headgear continues to have a positive effect.

Form: 66-7682

(3)

Al Marmar¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: W Buick| T: A M Balding| OR: 90| D

9/4

Lightly-raced sort who got firmly back on the right path when scoring at Ascot a fortnight ago, doing well to get up having conceded first run. Could go in again if the pace is solid.

Form: 2-1401

(2)

Dutch Decoy¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Oliver Stammers⁽³⁾| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 81| D

9/2

Ungeniune sort who overcame a pace bias to capitalise on a reduced mark at Hamilton last time but is just as likely to run poorly this time.

Form: 546741

(4)

Makinmedoit^t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Hayley Turner| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 88

5/1

Off the mark in a Brighton maiden on her reappearance and better form in defeat since, particularly when length third on Chester handicap debut. Latest effort was sub-par but it's too soon to write her off.

Form: 2-13837

(1)

Atheby^t1³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 79| D

8/1

Off the mark at Nottingham in May before a sub-par showing at this course a month ago. Back down in trip with a tongue strap applied so not completely written off.

Form: 2-75418

Forecasts

Bullace (2/1), Al Marmar (9/4), Dutch Decoy (9/2), Makinmedoit (5/1), Atheby (8/1)

AL MARMAR is the most progressive sort in this field and, having done well to get up late at Ascot last time, he's preferred to Bullace, who bounced back with a solid showing at this course last time. Makinmedoit is also considered.
