Took advantage of a reduced mark when winning 12-runner handicap (9/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 16 days ago. Still looks on a good mark but high draw is a concern.

80/1

First run since leaving Hugo Palmer when last of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, soft) 10 days ago. Back down in trip. Hard to fancy.

Do I Dream¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Sam Feilden⁽⁷⁾| T: B Haslam| OR: 65

3/1

Won at Ripon last month before producing a career best to follow up in a 9-runner handicap at Pontefract (8f, heavy, 5/4) 4 days later. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 67-4211

Strangerontheshore^p²¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Faye McManoman| T: N Tinkler| OR: 65| C

28/1

Course winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, won 8-runner handicap at Newcastle (8f, 11/1). Reasonably consistent for one at this level and is respected after 7 months off.

Laura's Breeze³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Garritty| T: L Bailey| OR: 63| D

18/1

Successful over 7f for Ed Dunlop in November and stepped up on yard debut effort when winning 9-runner handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 5/1). Creditable sixth of 15 in handicap (16/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 38 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Ryan Sexton| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 63| C| D

12/1

Five-time course winner. 16/1, probably needed run when fourth of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, heavy) 14 days ago. Place claims if sharper this time.

Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. First run since leaving S. P. C. Woods when 5¼ lengths last of 9 to Laura's Breeze in handicap (17/2) at Southwell (7.1f) 53 days ago. Something to find on form.

Form: 607-959

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: T Eaves| T: M Herrington| OR: 60| D

14/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. 14/1, creditable third of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 23 days ago. High draw is a worry for all she's a player on form.

Willow Baby⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: S De Sousa| T: J Ward| OR: 56

6/1

Respectable third of 8 in handicap (9/2) at Doncaster (6f, soft) 9 days ago, despite going without much fluency. Back up in trip. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 20-4353

Forecasts

Hostelry (5/2), Do I Dream (3/1), Willow Baby (6/1), Ardbraccan (7/1), Gentle Ellen (7/1), Dandy's Angel (12/1), Powdering (14/1), Laura's Breeze (18/1), Inanna (22/1), Strangerontheshore (28/1), Shandy Star (28/1), Princess Niyla (80/1), Clipsham Gold (80/1)

DO I DREAM looks up to completing the hat-trick from a mark only 2 lb higher than when winning at Pontefract. Ardbraccan remains well treated on her best form and can't be ruled out despite a less-than-ideal draw, whith Gentle Ellen also respected on return.
