Inanna^t²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: R Havlin| T: S Woods| OR: 69

Brownlee³²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Rossa Ryan| T: T D Barron| OR: 69| BF| CD

7/1

C&D winner last December but off since a below-form third of 4 in handicap (11/8) at Newcastle (5f) in January. Rossa Ryan up but betting perhaps the best guide to expectations given the length of the lay-off.

Form: 37931-3

Rodborough^p²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: A D Brown| OR: 68| CD

11/4

Pair of C&D wins in August and second at Newcastle in October. Not so good at Wolverhampton last time but capable of bouncing back under Danny Tudhope.

Agostino^v1¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: J Mitchell| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 65

9/2

4/1 and cheekpieces on first me, respectable 2½ lengths third of 10 to Ramon Di Loria in handicap at Wolverhampton (5f) 10 days ago. Visor on first time. Looks competitive on form.

Forecasts

Rodborough (11/4), Agostino (9/2), Ramon Di Loria (5/1), Bang On The Bell (13/2), Stone Of Destiny (7/1), Brownlee (7/1), Secret Mistral (12/1), Birkenhead (12/1), Captain's Bar (22/1), Canaria Queen (25/1), Inanna (40/1), Caesars Pearl (40/1)

BANG ON THE BELL ran well at Chelmsford last time and might be up to landing a fourth success of the year. Last week's Wolverhampton winner Ramon Di Loria should go well under a penalty, while Rodborough is respected back at the scene of her 2 wins in August.
