King Of Tonga^b⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: D Nolan| T: D Carroll| OR: 69| D

8/1

Fallen plenty in the weights and finally took advantage when winning 6-runner handicap at Catterick (6f, soft, 6/1) 9 days ago, driven out. Remains with plenty of handicapping scope on old form and respected again.

Form: 063-041

Newyorkstateofmind²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 67| D

33/1

Made a winning return to action at Wolverhampton (6f) in April but hasn't fired either start in handicaps on turf since. Needs to leave those efforts in his wake if he's to feature.

Form: 247-180

Equity's Darling^h⁴¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 65| D

80/1

Successful on second of 3 starts as a juvenile but unable to build on that confined to just 2 starts in 3-y-o handicaps on all-weather last year. Betting should prove a useful guide on return from 13 months off.

Form: 516/58-

Barney's Bay^v1¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: D Shaw| OR: 65| D

66/1

Ended long losing run at Thirsk (6f) 12 months ago. Lightly raced subsequently, and yet to match that level in pair of starts for present stable, ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 19 days ago. Fitting of a visor needs to have a positive effect.

Form: 5139-69

(3)

Emperor Caradoc^p³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: D Tudhope| T: P T Midgley| OR: 65| D

4/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, second of 10 in handicap at Ayr (5f, good) 30 days ago. Potentially well treated if building on that effort back up in trip.

Form: 0-60092

(10)

Selby's Pride^p⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: T Eaves| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 64| D

13/2

Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 17/2, tenth of 13 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, heavy) 53 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 549-270

(4)

Annie Law²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 62| CD

9/2

C&D winner who battled well when adding to her tally at Kempton (6f) in October. Below best back at that venue on final start in November but entitled to strip fitter for her seasonal return at Chelmsford (7f) 3 weeks ago.

Form: 22018-5

(8)

Alseeyerthere^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: D C Costello| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 60

2/1

Redcar winner (7f) last summer who shaped promisingly when close third of 12 in handicap here (7f) on return in April. Finishing effort a shade underwhelming when fifth at Leicester (7f) 3 weeks ago but the way she travels suggests a return to sprinting won't inconvenience her.

Form: 0554-35

(5)

Twayblade²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Davies| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 58| BF| D

12/1

Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (11/4) at Brighton (6f, good to soft) 23 days ago, weakening when slightly hampered last ½f. Others make more appeal.

Form: 1671-65

(11)

Jesse Luc^p,t²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Murphy & M Keady| OR: 55

25/1

Maiden who produced best effort to date when 2 lengths third of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f) in April. Equipped with cheekpieces/tongue tie, not in same form back on turf when fourth of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 059-734

(9)

Toptime⁷³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-11| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: S R Bowring| OR: 53| BF| D

14/1

Latest win at Southwell (5f) and ran well both starts since, fifth of 10 in handicap back at that venue in March. Has tasted success on turf previously and he's not handicapped out of things back from 73 days off.

Form: 83-2125

Forecasts

Alseeyerthere (2/1), Emperor Caradoc (4/1), Annie Law (9/2), Selby's Pride (13/2), King Of Tonga (8/1), Twayblade (12/1), Toptime (14/1), Jesse Luc (25/1), Newyorkstateofmind (33/1), Barney's Bay (66/1), Equity's Darling (80/1)

ALSEEYERTHERE's finishing effort didn't quite match the way she travelled when fifth at Leicester (7f) 3 weeks ago but she's well worth another chance to confirm her mark a workable one returned to sprinting and earns the vote to come out on top. Emperor Caradoc and recent Catterick winner King of Tonga are others fancied to play lead roles.
