Rogue State^h1²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 65| BF

5/2

Only third of 8 in maiden (8/11) at this C&D (good to firm) 28 days ago. However, she could yet do better as she goes handicapping on first run for yard after leaving Bryan Smart. Hood on first time.

Form: 33-33

(6)

War Memorial¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 65

10/3

Has been going the right way with each start sent handicapping this season, ½-length third of 14 to Havana Prince at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 17/2) 15 days ago. Merits consideration.

Form: 458-543

Eco Power Boy²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Gianluca Sanna⁽⁵⁾| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 64

40/1

Fared little better than on his seasonal/stable debut when seventh of 8 in handicap (40/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 3 weeks ago. Has work to do as he goes up in trip.

Form: 0458-07

Stratocracy³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: K Frost| OR: 63

12/1

Has yet to fire for his current yard this year, fifth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to firm, 20/1) 31 days ago. Continues to fall in the weights but more needed to take advantage.

Form: 4-75965

(9)

Evelyn's Phoenix^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 62| BF

3/1

Doubled his tally at Carlisle on his penultimate start and again ran well when fourth of 13 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm, 3/1) 6 days ago. Can resume winning ways back down in trip.

Form: 324214

Game Management^p1³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 58

14/1

In first-time blinkers, looked a hard ride when eighth of 13 in handicap (10/1) at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Cheekpieces now the choice of headgear but others more persuasive.

Form: 57-8658

(1)

Due Consideration^h¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Connor Murtagh| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 56| D

5/1

Shaped as if still in form when fourth of 9 in handicap (9/1) at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Has dropped below his winning mark so he could be in the mix.

Form: 652074

Papagrey^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 47

25/1

Hasn't made much impact switched to handicaps so far this season, in first-time cheekpieces when last of 7 at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 10/1) 2 weeks ago. Improvement required.

Form: 90-5957

Forecasts

Rogue State (5/2), Evelyn's Phoenix (3/1), Havana Prince (3/1), War Memorial (10/3), Due Consideration (5/1), Stratocracy (12/1), Game Management (14/1), Papagrey (25/1), Eco Power Boy (40/1)

EVELYN'S PHOENIX has yet to finish out of the frame since going handicapping, again giving his running when fourth at Beverley 6 days ago, so he is taken to record a third career success as he drops back down in trip. Havana Prince made it 3 wins from his last 4 starts when scoring at Redcar last time and is feared most, ahead of War Memorial.
