Sparks Fly¹⁰^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Laura Pearson⁽³⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 68| D

15/8

Promising sort. Much improved when scoring at Windsor (8.1f) last month and followed up with the minimum of fuss over the same C&D (soft) 10 days ago. 6 lb penalty may not prevent the hat-trick.

Form: 655311

(4)

Rievaulx Raver^p²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: S H James| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 71| D

8/1

Fifth of 8 in handicap (8/1) at Redcar (10f, heavy) 24 days ago. Back down in trip. Others look better treated.

Form: 2736-35

(5)

Yeoman¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Rowan Scott| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 70

11/4

Upped his game when making a winning handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 16 days ago. 3 lb rise fair and will be a big player if reproducing that form on turf.

Form: 45-61

(6)

Sea In The Dark²⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: M Dods| OR: 66

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 14/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at this course (7f, soft). Off 8 months. Improvement required on handicap debut.

Form: 547-

(1)

Hale End²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 65| BF

7/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, first run since leaving Richard Hannon when good third of 12 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Entitled to build on that.

Form: 0553-3

(3)

Valstar^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 61

10/1

Still looking for first success but posted creditable second of 4 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, soft) on return 12 days ago, albeit flattered by proximity to winner. Not out of things.

Form: 75250-2

SPARKS FLY has looked a different proposition since upped in trip and switched to turf. She should take the beating here. Hale End made a good start for his new yard at Beverley last month and is feared most.
