Monteria^t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Dane O'Neill| T: W S Kittow| OR: 77

33/1

1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Windsor in May but finished down the field in similar event there (11.4f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Widest draw will make life difficult.

Form: 454-616

(8)

Silastar³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: G & J Moore| OR: 77| C

4/1

Improved to win at Leicester (10f, heavy) in April before taking another step forward to follow up in 12-runner handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 34 days ago, well on top finish. Should have enough in hand to cope with 5 lb rise.

Form: 98-6211

(6)

Graignes^t⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: W Buick| T: George Baker| OR: 75| BF

7/1

Well handicapped on the form of his 2 wins in France in 2021 and was given a considerate return when fourth of 9 in handicap at Windsor (10f, heavy) in May. One to note if market speaks favourably.

Form: 30/055-4

Wild Hurricane^h1²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 74

7/2

Hasn't looked the easiest of rides in novice/maiden company so far, most recently when fifth of 12 (14/1) at Chepstow (10f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut with hood on.

Form: 3-35

(4)

Chips And Rice⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 73

5/2

Made winning start for this yard when scoring on return at Lingfield and showed improved form behind a pair of unexposed 3yos at Ascot on next start. Should give another good account from same mark.

Form: 1242-13

(7)

Fascinating Lips²⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: G & J Moore| OR: 72

12/1

Won Lingfield seller last summer before a pair of good placed efforts. Absent since making successful transition to hurdling in 4-runner novice hurdle (15/8) at Fontwell (17.7f, good) on NH debut but would merit respect if fully tuned up back on the Flat.

Form: 53/2123-

(10)

Lafan⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: R Coakley| T: F Brennan| OR: 72| BF| C

25/1

Dual course winner also scored at Wolverhampton in April. Seemed to find an 8 lb rise in the weights beyond him when third of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 55 days ago. Steps back up in trip.

Form: 0-60313

Down To The Kid¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: K Shoemark| T: I Furtado| OR: 71

11/1

Gained third C&D success at Southwell in March. 11/2, good second of 12 in handicap there (12.1f) 15 days ago, edged out near line having been well positioned. Leading player again.

(5)

Caribou^t⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: A J Farragher⁽³⁾| T: R Stephens| OR: 66

50/1

Shaped as if better for run when fourth of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm, 10/1) 43 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Tongue strap back on. Both wins have come at sprint trips, so has to prove he stays this far.

Form: 74/090-4

(3)

Waterloo Sunset²²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: George Bass⁽³⁾| T: D J Coakley| OR: 65

10/1

Lightly raced for age but has been in decent heart of late, second of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 22 days ago. Can give another good account.

Form: 04-4832

Forecasts

Chips And Rice (5/2), Wild Hurricane (7/2), Silastar (4/1), Meisterzinger (5/1), Graignes (7/1), Waterloo Sunset (10/1), Down To The Kid (11/1), Fascinating Lips (12/1), Lafan (25/1), Monteria (33/1), Caribou (50/1)

SILASTAR is an improved model this season and looks capable of completing the hat-trick after recent wins at Leicester and Sandown. Chips And Rice has ran well on both of her outings for James Fanshawe, latterly when chasing home an unexposed pair of 3-y-os, and is feared most, with Down To The Kid taken to complete the placings.
