Late Arrival¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 67| D

12/1

Latest win at Southwell in March. Last of 6 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good to soft, 6/1) 14 days ago. Return to 6f will suit down in class and he's not dismissed.

Form: 70-0136

Seven Brothers⁴⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Phil Dennis| T: S Dixon| OR: 65| BF| D

13/2

Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/2, good second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 46 days ago. Clearly on a good mark if building on that.

Form: 6-50342

Runninwild⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: D Allan| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 65| CD

18/1

C&D winner. 8/1, last of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) on return 42 days ago, too free. On a career-low mark.

Form: 69497-0

Giselles Izzy⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 64| D

22/1

Goes well at Hamilton, gaining a third success there on her penultimate start. However, not in the same form when tenth of 11 in handicap (14/1) at Carlisle (5f, soft) 8 days ago. Bounce back called for returned to this longer trip.

Form: 67-7810

(8)

Lord Abama^b²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Sean Kirrane| T: M Dods| OR: 64| CD

4/1

Blinkered for 1st time, improved on recent efforts to win 18-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 17/2) 20 days ago by 1½ lengths from Atomise, the switch to front-running tactics clearly having a positive effect. Player again up 5 lb.

Form: 677-981

(4)

Phoenix Beach¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 63| D

4/1

Respectable third of 11 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm, 12/1) 19 days ago. Return to 6f will suit and he's one to note (red-hot yard's only runner on the card).

Form: 64-8463

(13)

Dream Deal^p,t¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: J Garritty| T: D Brooke| OR: 61| D

4/1

Creditable second of 10 in handicap (well-backed 16/5) at Ayr (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Respected.

Form: 0123-62

Tickets³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: B Haslam| OR: 58

66/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 20/1, last of 6 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good) 38 days ago. Looks better on AW.

Form: 7656-96

(7)

Atomise²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 57| D

11/2

17/2, good 1½ lengths second of 18 to Lord Abama in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) on return 20 days ago. Just 1 win to her name but that was a fine reappearance and she's not dismissed.

Form: 35070-2

(12)

Poetic Jack¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Hart| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 56

28/1

Seventh of 10 in handicap (6/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 15 days ago. Unproven on turf.

Form: 7318-77

(5)

Dandy Spirit^b²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: S H James| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 53| D

16/1

18/1, creditable 2½ lengths fourth of 18 to Lord Abama in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 20 days ago. More needed.

Form: 89-9844

(10)

Garifullina²¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Amie Waugh⁽⁵⁾| T: J J Davies| OR: 53

25/1

Modest maiden. Probably has enough ability to pick up a small race but might be best watched on return after 7 months off.

Form: 547637-

(14)

Missmimi¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 45

80/1

Poor maiden. Sixth of 15 in handicap at Redcar (7f, soft, 40/1) 11 days ago. Uphill task.

Form: 696-066

Run This Way⁸

Weight: 9-8| Age: 6

T: P T Midgley J: D Nolan

Forecasts

Run This Way (3/1), Lord Abama (4/1), Dream Deal (4/1), Phoenix Beach (4/1), Atomise (11/2), Seven Brothers (13/2), Late Arrival (12/1), Dandy Spirit (16/1), Runninwild (18/1), Giselles Izzy (22/1), Garifullina (25/1), Poetic Jack (28/1), Tickets (66/1), Missmimi (80/1)

RUN THIS WAY is thriving and was a C&D winner off a fair bit higher in the past so she could be hard to beat under a double penalty. This is a competitive heat though, with good cases to be made for recent C&D 1-2 Lord Abama and Atomise, Seven Brothers and Phoenix Beach also.
