Evelyn's Phoenix^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 62| BF

7/2

Doubled his tally at Carlisle in July. Run of good form halted when fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm, 3/1) 6 days ago, but he appeals as the type to bounce back quickly returned to this longer trip.

Form: 242144

Bits And Bobs^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁵⁾| T: M Walford| OR: 61| BF

12/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. However, in first-time cheekpieces he soon got back on track when third of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good to firm, 13/8) 19 days ago. Could be in the mix from his reduced mark.

Sea La Venus³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 60| BF

5/2

Making her handicap debut, below market expectations (10/11) when fifth of 8 at this course (12f, good to firm) 34 days ago. However, it's still early days for her leading yard so she remains capable of better.

Form: 8-565

Star Delta⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 60

25/1

Hasn't made much impact in 3 starts so far, sixth of 8 in maiden (50/1) at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) 54 days ago. Has work to do as he goes up in trip for his handicap debut.

Form: 856

Pop Noodle²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Ray Dawson| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 58

18/1

Hasn't managed to improve sent handicapping this year, though denied a clear run on turf debut when sixth of 9 in handicap (22/1) at Chepstow (10f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 057-576

Jez Bomb^p²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: O J Orr| T: S England| OR: 57

5/2

Showed improved form when getting off the mark in 12-runner handicap at Redcar (9f, good to firm, 9/2) 3 weeks ago, overcoming significant pace bias. Major player now that he's up and running.

Form: 654231

(4)

Patronage^p¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 56| D

11/2

Latest win at Nottingham in May. Has remained in decent heart since, not discredited when third of 8 in handicap (13/2) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Can give his running once more.

Form: 215633

Forecasts

Jez Bomb (5/2), Sea La Venus (5/2), Evelyn's Phoenix (7/2), Patronage (11/2), Bits And Bobs (12/1), Pop Noodle (18/1), Star Delta (25/1)

JEZ BOMB opened his account in good style when scoring at Redcar 3 weeks ago, coming from last to first in a slowly-run race, so he is taken to build on his latest effort and follow up. The main danger could be Sea La Venus, who is well worth another chance with her yard in excellent form, ahead of Evelyn's Phoenix.
