9/1

Promiment racer who went close to making a winning reappearance at Epsom (5f, heavy) last week. Should make a bold bid from an unchanged mark.

Form: 21708-2

Mellys Flyer^h²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽³⁾| T: George Scott| OR: 79| D

9/4

11/4, won 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) 24 days ago, driven out. The majority of his 4 lb rise is offset by Benoit de la Sayette's claim. Bold show likely.

Form: 8-55351

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: David Probert| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 78

7/1

Notched a pair of 7f AW wins for David Loughnane last year. Not at his best at the end of 2022 but has joined an in-form yard ahead of this reappearance. Also wears a first-time visor. One to note in the betting.

Forecasts

Mellys Flyer (9/4), Mamillius (7/2), Bobby On The Beat (4/1), Impeach (9/2), Dayman (7/1), Recon Mission (9/1), Cashew (50/1)

RECON MISSION went close in a higher grade at Epsom on last week's reappearance and may be capable of going one better off the same mark. Last month's Wolverhampton scorer Mellys Flyer is feared most with Benoit de la Sayette taking a handy 3 lb off. Dayman is on a winning mark and needs keeping an eye on in the betting on his first outing for the in-form Dominic Ffrench Davis stable.
