1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Chelmsford City (13f) in April. Raced freely when fifth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (16.3f, good to firm, 9/4) 39 days ago. Expected to be bang there reverted in trip.

5/4

9/4, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Doncaster (14.5f, good to firm) 19 days ago, just holding on. Enters calculations.

Form: 97-4221

(6)

Implacable¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: A King| OR: 64

11/2

Low-mileage maiden. 7/2, good third of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 17 days ago, needing stiffer test. Needs considering stepped up in distance.

Forecasts

Miss Gitana (5/4), Tailorman (10/3), Implacable (11/2), Beggarman (12/1), Cherry Cola (14/1), Russian Rumour (16/1), Wahoo King (20/1), Dovena (22/1), Pop The Champagne (25/1), Hidden Pearl (25/1), Nadim (33/1), Masterdream (40/1), Cochin (200/1)

BEGGARMAN failed to last home when fifth over 2m at Lingfield last time so is worth another chance to confirm himself on a lenient mark dropped back in trip here. Miss Gitana heads the list of dangers on the back of her Doncaster success, although the lightly-raced Implacable and 2022 victor Hidden Pearl are also well in the mix in this open handicap.
