(13)

Don't Tell Claire²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Cieren Fallon| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 86| D

14/1

Fairly useful mare but she comes here on the back of modest eighth in handicap at Ascot (8f) 29 days ago. More required.

Form: 156-588

(10)

The Flying Ginger¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: B A Curtis| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 82| D

33/1

Dual winner in 2021 who has just one respectable effort to her name this term. Failed to beat a rival at York last time and is difficult to fancy.

Form: 00-9635

(6)

Tarrabb²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Stott| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 84

10/3

Had a bit in hand when making a winning start at Chelmsford in May and was firmly back on the right path when landing a 10-runner event at Ascot a month ago. Looks an obvious player up in trip.

Form: 1281

(2)

Valley Mist^p1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D C Costello| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 83

28/1

Lightly-raced filly who has shown a fair level of form but will need to improve for first-time cheekpieces if she's to defy quite a stiff opening mark.

Form: 623

(7)

Celtic Empress^h²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: H Main| OR: 76| D

16/1

Winner at Newmarket (1m) in May despite a slow start. Has generally held her form since and was stretched by a longer trip at Chester last time, so could bounce back.

Form: 6-51567

(9)

Queen Aminatu³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 82

10/3

Already a dual winner and was unlucky not to complete a hat-trick when a narrow third over 7f here on her penultimate outing. Struggled in listed company last time but makes plenty of appeal back in calmer waters.

Form: 2-21136

(12)

Urban Violet³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: George Bass⁽⁵⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 75

50/1

Good effort at Yarmouth on penultimate outing but looked laboured at Epsom next time. Return to this trip could suit but others are more appealing.

Form: 399-025

(14)

Rose Barton⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J Mitchell| T: K P De Foy| OR: 81| D

8/1

Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (9/4) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 42 days ago, making all. Likeable sort who still hasn't had much racing.

Form: 236-221

(11)

Canoodled²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: David Egan| T: E Walker| OR: 73| D

7/1

Stepped up on reappearance when runner-up at Newmarket and encouraging efforts over 7f the last twice. Return to this trip will suit, and worthy of consideration.

Form: 10-5243

(8)

Alpha Cru^v⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: D O'Meara| OR: 73| D

22/1

Creditable third of 8 in handicap (10/1) at Hamilton (8.3f, good) 8 days ago, finishing with running left having met trouble. One to be interested in.

Form: 793533

(3)

Ribbon Rose³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽³⁾| T: M Botti| OR: 79

40/1

Won maiden and novice events on first 2 starts but hasn't really kicked on from that and doesn't look particularly well treated.

Form: 1-1885

(4)

Golden Melody⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 72| C| D

16/1

Successful three times in 2021 and mostly running well in defeat this season, third of 11 at Chester 7 days ago. Likely to be thereabouts.

Form: 244433

(1)

Rainbow Colours⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 79| D

17/2

Improved effort to gain second victory at Ripon earlier this month and followed up at Chepstow 10 days later. Solid efforts since, making her effort earlier than ideal at Goodwood recently, so not discounted.

Form: 571126

(5)

Ana Gold¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 76

7/1

In excellent form at present and was only just touched off at Redcar 11 days ago despite conceding first run. Another bold showing looks on the cards.

Form: 3-38222

Forecasts

Tarrabb (10/3), Queen Aminatu (10/3), Ana Gold (7/1), Canoodled (7/1), Rose Barton (8/1), Rainbow Colours (17/2), Don't Tell Claire (14/1), Golden Melody (16/1), Celtic Empress (16/1), Alpha Cru (22/1), Valley Mist (28/1), The Flying Ginger (33/1), Ribbon Rose (40/1), Urban Violet (50/1)

QUEEN AMINATU was on the up before a blip in listed company last time and she's fancied to resume her progress and score. Tarrabb, a comfortable winner at Ascot last time, is regarded as the main danger, while a solid showing from the in-form Ana Gold seems assured.
