Selected odds by:

(7)

Scotch Mistress^t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 79

14/1

Left reappearance behind when a respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (8.5f, good to firm, 16/1) 14 days ago, finishing well after meeting trouble.

Form: 4829-04

(2)

Quick Change¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 78| CD

4/1

Ended her 3-y-o campaign with a defeat of the useful Amanzoe over C&D last June. Understandably needed her comeback run at Newcastle in March and showed she retains her ability when seventh of 19 over 7f at York last month. The return to 1m should suit her.

Form: 1321-77

(4)

Ellade¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P J Dobbs| T: R Hannon| OR: 72| D

16/1

Fair filly who has returned with respectable fourth-placed finishes in 1m handicaps at Lingfield and Doncaster in recent weeks but there's a suspicion she might prove vulnerable to some of the unexposed 3-y-os in this line-up.

Form: 8075-44

(1)

Five Towns¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 77

9/2

Came good at the third time of asking when seeing off 10 rivals in 7f Kempton novice in October. Creditable fifth of 14 on 7f York handicap debut/reappearance and shapes as if today's longer trip will suit her.

Form: 591-5

(6)

Quantum Light²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 76

12/1

Fair form when reaching the frame on all 5 starts, reappearing with a second in 8.6f Wolverhampton handicap 22 days ago. Ought to be competitive again.

Form: 3244-2

(3)

Alice Knyvet²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: James Doyle| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 75

16/5

Progressive form, finishing 3½ lengths fourth in a decent 1m Windsor maiden 23 days ago. This well-bred filly should go on to better things in handicaps.

Form: 4-34

(9)

Regal Fanfare³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 73

10/1

Fair form when placed in novice at Lingfield (7f) and maiden at Nottingham (extended 1m) this spring. In good hands and appeals as a likely improver now moving into handicap company.

Form: 6-23

(5)

Chorus Line¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: W Buick| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 71

13/2

Left last autumn's 3 efforts well behind when making a successful handicap debut/reappearance under William Buick at Leicester (7f) 15 days ago, showing a good turn of foot to lead in the dying strides. A 3 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop her with further improvement likely.

Form: 658-1

(8)

Bint Al Daar⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: J Fanning| T: K P De Foy| OR: 68

17/2

Fair form in 4 outings for Kevin Ryan. Faded when fourth of 5 on 1¼m Newcastle handicap debut in March and new yard quick to drop her back in trip. Remains unexposed.

Form: 534-4

Forecasts

Alice Knyvet (16/5), Quick Change (4/1), Five Towns (9/2), Chorus Line (13/2), Bint Al Daar (17/2), Regal Fanfare (10/1), Quantum Light (12/1), Scotch Mistress (14/1), Ellade (16/1)

Possibly best to narrow this down to the 3-y-os. CHORUS LINE did well to get up over 7f at Leicester last month and can make light of a 3 lb rise with the step up to 1m likely to suit her. Well-bred pair Alice Knyvet and Regal Fanfare appeal as probable improvers now handicapping and may give the selection most to think about.
