Maso Bastie^v1²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Shepherd| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 85

5/1

Latest win at Nottingham in May. 7/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (11.2f, soft) 26 days ago. Sports a first-time visor in a less-competitive event, and remains with potential.

Form: 41-139

(6)

Tenerife Sunshine³²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Stott| T: C Johnston| OR: 82

6/1

Thrice-raced winner. 40/1, 15¾ lengths seventh of 9 to Flying Honours in Zetland Stakes at Newmarket (10f, good) when last seen. Makes handicap debut. More required but trip should suit.

Form: 817-

(3)

Entrancement²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: D Menuisier| OR: 81

16/1

Latest win at Goodwood in May. Last of 15 in handicap (20/1) at Goodwood (9.9f, soft) 27 days ago. Not one to give up on back in a more realistic grade.

Form: 21-4120

(5)

Band Of Steel^h,t²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Havlin| T: S Woods| OR: 81

4/1

22/1, very good fourth of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again.

Form: 2518-54

(4)

Zodiac Star^h1⁶⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A King| OR: 80

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable fifth of 9 in minor event at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 11/2) on return 60 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Not discounted for all he has a bit to find.

Form: 443-5

(7)

Carbis Bay²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: M Botti| OR: 80

13/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Previous best efforts have come on an artificial surface, so could get back on the up on polytrack debut.

Form: 2926

(9)

It's All About You⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: James Doyle| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 80

8/1

Last of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (12f, good, 9/2) 68 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Likely to be back on track after a break.

Form: 351-337

Urban Outlook¹⁸⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 78

6/1

Left previous form well behind when easily winning 10-runner maiden at Lingfield (10f, AW, 6/1). Off 180 days. Open to further improvement on handicap debut, so should take the beating if he's tuned up.

Form: 451

(8)

God Of Fire^t1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 77

25/1

Eleventh of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, 22/1) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Form: 4-13890

Forecasts

Band Of Steel (4/1), Maso Bastie (5/1), Zodiac Star (11/2), Tenerife Sunshine (6/1), Urban Outlook (6/1), Carbis Bay (13/2), It's All About You (8/1), Entrancement (16/1), God Of Fire (25/1)

URBAN OUTLOOK was pretty impressive when opening his account at Lingfield 6 months ago so, for all that fitness has to be taken on trust, he's worth a chance to follow up on handicap debut. Maso Bastie is an obvious danger dropping back in grade and Band of Steel can't be ruled out.
