Love Yours⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Billy Garritty| T: G Tutty| OR: 62

11/1

Followed a below-par effort with an even worse one when last of 4 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 10/1) 3 months ago. Not discounted making her first start on turf for this yard.

Form: 6-37244

Due Consideration²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: P Mathers| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 61| D

7/1

15/2, ran no sort of race back on turf when last of 6 in handicap at Haydock (8f, heavy) 23 days ago. Can't be recommended after that.

Form: 212-206

Blufferonthebus¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: William Pyle⁽⁵⁾| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 60

17/2

Winner at Pontefract in April. 13/2, never close enough to challenge when sixth of 12 in handicap at Ripon (8f, good) 10 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Each-way claims.

Form: 346-416

Azure Stage^b1⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: O J Orr| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 59

12/1

150/1, could hardly have shown any less after 7 months off when ninth of 10 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, AW) 45 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut and has been gelded.

Form: 80-9

(3)

Hardman^b1⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: T D Barron| OR: 59

11/2

25/1, failed to improve on qualifying run when sixth of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 11 weeks ago. Up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 9-66

Jesmond Dawn²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Harrison Shaw| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 59| BF

10/3

Well-backed 5/4, failed to improve to the extent the market anticipated when fourth of 8 on handicap debut at Catterick (7f, soft) 26 days ago. Interesting to see if his supporters return.

Form: 3-584

Jez Bomb¹⁸⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: S A Gray| T: S England| OR: 57

33/1

Well held in 3 back-end novices. Makes handicap debut returning from 6 months off.

Oceanic Wonder¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 53

15/2

Stepped up on reappearance when fourth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Ripon (8f, good) 10 days ago, sticking on to hit the frame despite racing freely over a longer trip. Can make presence felt.

Form: 2870-74

Rishi³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: A Mullen| T: T Davidson| OR: 53

20/1

12/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 34 days ago. Up in trip. Makes turf debut. Others look stronger.

Form: 768-365

Northern Cracksman^b²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 53

4/1

Visored for 1st time, again ran well when second of 6 in handicap at Haydock (8f, heavy, 7/2) 23 days ago. Blinkers back on. Has to be taken seriously back on a sounder surface.

Form: 0-34322

Forecasts

Jesmond Dawn (10/3), Northern Cracksman (4/1), Hardman (11/2), Due Consideration (7/1), Oceanic Wonder (15/2), Blufferonthebus (17/2), Love Yours (11/1), Azure Stage (12/1), Rishi (20/1), Jez Bomb (33/1)

A tricky finale to solve but NORTHERN CRACKSMAN has found just one too strong the last twice so Brian Ellison's charge can gain a deserved first success back in blinkers at the expense of Oceanic Wonder, who stepped up on her reappearance run at Ripon recently and made do better again. Blufferonthebus and Jesmond Dawn can do battle for minor honours.
