The Big Board⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 89| D

10/3

14/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Ascot (6f, good) 9 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Holds good claims off an easing mark.

Form: 0470-04

Glorious Angel⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 88| C| D

7/2

Course winner. Latest win here in April. Only eighth of 11 to Ponntos in Prix de Saint-Georges at Longchamp (5f, good to soft, 12/1) 7 days ago but the sort to bounce back.

Form: 243148

Radio Goo Goo³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: D Nolan| T: P D Evans| OR: 83| BF| D

3/1

Below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 2/1) 36 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.

Form: 59-4635

International Girl²⁵⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: R A Fahey| OR: 82| D

10/1

Good second of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 8 months but she can't be ruled out for yard among the winners.

Form: 248282-

Origintrail²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Haslam| OR: 78| CD

7/2

C&D winner. Creditable second of 5 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft, 7/2) 25 days ago. Eleven runs since her last win in 2022, however.

Form: 42250-2

(5)

Game Breaker²⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Joanna Mason| T: R Menzies| OR: 81| D

25/1

Lightly-raced sort who posted a career best when winning 9-runner nursery at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 9 months ago on her final run for Ralph Beckett. Needs to hit the ground running for her new handler.

Form: 5251-

Mersea¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: S D Bowen⁽⁵⁾| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 70| D

10/1

Latest win at Southwell in April. 9/2, only fourth of 5 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, soft) 18 days ago so needs to get back on track.

Form: 6-62104

Forecasts

Radio Goo Goo (3/1), The Big Board (10/3), Glorious Angel (7/2), Origintrail (7/2), International Girl (10/1), Mersea (10/1), Game Breaker (25/1)

None of these can be ruled out but THE BIG BOARD didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Ascot last time and is taken to capitalise on a lenient-looking mark. International Girl has an absence to overcome but hails from a yard among the winners so could emerge as the chief threat ahead of Glorious Angel and Radio Goo Goo.
