Swatch⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: S De Sousa| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 62

9/4

Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 5/1) 8 days ago. Carries penalty. Has to be taken seriously given he's unexposed over 1m and retains handicap scope.

Mister Sox^p¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 62| D

7/2

Fitter for reappearance and bounced right back to his best when good second of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Can be competitive again.

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Tommie Jakes⁽⁵⁾| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 60| D

20/1

Played up beforehand and heavy defeat when seventh of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and he needs to bounce back.

Original Thinker^p¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: H Bethell| OR: 60

6/1

Shaped as though needing the run when respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 10 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Expected to last longer this time.

Form: 42437-5

11/1

Fourth of 7 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good, 17/2) 4 days ago. Tongue strap may help his finishing effort.

(9)

Headabovetherest^t⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mulrennan| T: R Menzies| OR: 58

20/1

Another fair effort when fourth of 6 in handicap at Ayr (8f, good) 4 days ago, no extra final 1f. Drop back in trip may therefore help.

Form: 209-624

(5)

Dr Rio¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Harrison Shaw| T: D Carroll| OR: 54| CD

25/1

C&D winner. 9/2, sixth of 8 in handicap at Catterick (5f, soft) 12 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Significantly back up in trip so a better showing surely forthcoming.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Hart| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 53

10/1

Forecasts

Swatch (9/4), Mister Sox (7/2), Ey Up Its Jazz (9/2), Original Thinker (6/1), Coloane (10/1), Gordonstoun (11/1), To The Bar (20/1), Headabovetherest (20/1), Dr Rio (25/1), Twilight Jazz (33/1)

SWATCH made his second start for Alice Haynes a winning one at Bath a week ago and this low-mileage 5-y-o may well have plenty more to offer. He's selected to follow up at he chief expense of Original Thinker and Mister Sox.
