Selected odds by:

(4)

Breccia^t²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: Marco Ghiani| T: R Stephens| OR: 56| CD

7/2

C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Up in trip and she's not without each-way appeal.

Form: 489/63-4

(2)

Beaming Light^h⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: L Horsfall| OR: 55

16/1

18/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 7 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Significantly up in trip and he's opposable for win purposes.

Form: 540997

(7)

Valegro¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Mia Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: P G Murphy| OR: 52

66/1

First run since leaving Ali Stronge when eighth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW, 80/1) 18 days ago. Readily passed over.

Form: 42/9-88

(9)

Baileys Warrior^h⁷⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: T Faulkner| OR: 52| BF

10/3

One win from 30 Flat runs. 11/4, fifth of 8 in handicap at Ffos Las (14f, good) 75 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Likely to give it a good shot back on the AW.

Form: 154325

(1)

Humaniste^p⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 50

12/1

Winless following 16 Flat runs on these shores. 8/1, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Bath (17.1f, good) 9 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and couldn't rule out off this reduced mark.

Form: 3-64334

(10)

Nostromo¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Loughnane| T: R A Teal| OR: 49

6/1

11/1, respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 18 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and he looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 0-48756

(8)

Bigz Belief^p,t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: David Probert| T: F Brennan| OR: 47

15/2

Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, creditable fourth of 16 in handicap at Tipperary (12.5f, good, 22/1) 22 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Matthew Smith and will be a danger to all if taking to this surface.

Form: 8-73394

(3)

Robeam⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: Charlie Bennett| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 45| CD

50/1

C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 66/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Bath (17.1f, good) 9 days ago. Dangerous if scaling a revival but he's not the easiest to catch right nowadays.

Form: 007-720

(6)

Mimasusa²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Jason Watson| T: A M Balding| OR: 50

11/4

3/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Ffos Las (16f, heavy) 25 days ago and she's opposable on the back of that low-key effort.

Form: 665558

(5)

Ormering Tide¹¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Callum Shepherd| T: P D Evans| OR: 47

33/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Chepstow (10f, good, 50/1). Off 115 days and this represents a significant step up in trip. Others preferred.

Form: 96907

Forecasts

Mimasusa (11/4), Baileys Warrior (10/3), Breccia (7/2), Nostromo (6/1), Bigz Belief (15/2), Humaniste (12/1), Beaming Light (16/1), Ormering Tide (33/1), Robeam (50/1), Valegro (66/1)

Irish-import BIGZ BELIEF took a step back in the right direction when fourth off this mark on his final start for Matthew Smith at Tipperary earlier this month and he could be the answer. He is unproven on this surface but his credentials are otherwise appealing. Baileys Warrior wasn't at her best at Ffos Las last time but she can be expected to bounce back with a bold show returned to the all-weather, while Breccia and Humaniste are live each-way contenders.
