Revenue¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: George Downing| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 67| D

3/1

Displayed more encouraging signs when runner-up over C&D on penultimate start and built on that to score for the first time since debut in 8-runner Bath handicap (5.7f) 18 days ago. Possibilities from revised mark.

Form: 95-5521

High Violet^t1⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: D Loughnane| OR: 65

6/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Kempton (7f) 55 days ago, headed under 2f out and weakening. Tongue strap on 1st time back from a break but more needed.

Form: 445-78

(6)

Match Anthem^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: George Wood| T: P Charalambous & J Clutterbuck| OR: 64

9/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 7 in minor event at Chelmsford City (5f, 6/1) 19 days ago, no match for winner. Makes handicap debut and can go well.

Form: 4492

Miss Idunn⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁵⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 64

20/1

Acclamation filly who ran poorly on return at Kempton in April and fared no better (again easy to back) when last of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 40/1) 41 days ago. Return to sprinting needs to have positive effect now.

Form: 467-69

Hot Front^b¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Rossa Ryan| T: P D Evans| OR: 64

6/1

12/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at this course (5f, good) 17 days ago, shaken up over 2f out and weakening. Refitting of blinkers may help and return to 6f shouldn't hold any fears.

Form: 428066

Meganissi¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: George Rooke| T: R Hughes| OR: 62

11/1

33/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 14 days ago, weakening final 1f. That was her first start for 7 months and she's entitled to be sharper with that run under her belt.

Form: 94590-5

(4)

Mullins Beach¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B R Millman| OR: 60

3/1

Seventh of 8 in handicap (10/1) at this course (7f, good) 17 days ago, beaten when hampered inside final 1f. Better showing not ruled out returned to sprinting from career-low mark.

Form: 6226-77

(2)

Liege^b1,e/s1⁸¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: William Carver⁽³⁾| T: S Hodgson| OR: 59

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 80/1) 81 days ago, very slowly away and always behind. That run best excused (reported to have finished lame) and blinkers/eyeshields now the headgear of choice.

Form: 5-7389

(3)

Moe's Legacy^v1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: David Egan| T: R Harris| OR: 57| D

9/1

Winner at Kempton in February and made frame next 2 starts on all-weather. However, not been in same form on turf of late, 5½ lengths sixth of 8 to Revenue in handicap (14/1) at Bath (5.7f, good) 18 days ago. Visor on 1st time.

Forecasts

Revenue (3/1), Mullins Beach (3/1), High Violet (6/1), Hot Front (6/1), Moe's Legacy (9/1), Match Anthem (9/1), Meganissi (11/1), Clear Aim (14/1), Miss Idunn (20/1), Liege (40/1)

MATCH ANTHEM matched the pick of his previous form when runner-up at Chelmsford (5f) 3 weeks ago and earns the vote to come out on top now handicapping back up in trip. Bath scorer Revenue is a live threat, whilst it would come as no surprise to see a better showing from Hot Front with blinkers refitted/back up at 6f and she also makes each-way appeal.
