Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Sandown (10f, good), suited by more patient tactics. Not disgraced on heavy ground final start. Respected.

Beatrice Shilling³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: K P De Foy| OR: 73

Remains a maiden but better for return/yard debut (changed hands for 25,000 gns) when second at Wolverhampton last month. Should be on the premises again.

Form: 2470-72

40/1

Little impact 3 starts last season. First run since leaving Roger Fell & Sean Murray when ninth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (10f, good to soft, 16/1). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Micky Hammond. Easy to look elsewhere.

Bintabuha²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Cieren Fallon| T: W J Knight| OR: 75

11/1

Stoutly-bred filly who showed ability despite looking quite raw in 4 runs as a juvenile. Well backed but disappointed up in trip at Southwell on AW debut/return. Worth another chance back on turf.

Form: 2345-5

Cymbidium¹⁸⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 73

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 71

Forecasts

Coma Cluster (11/4), Rock Camelot (4/1), Beatrice Shilling (9/2), Cymbidium (5/1), Questionable (8/1), Princess Niyla (10/1), Bintabuha (11/1), Star Cast (16/1), Shifter (25/1), Anjo Bonita (40/1)

COMA CLUSTER proved a different proposition making handicap debut/return when second at Nottingham 2 weeks ago and this well-bred filly almost certainly has more to offer. Cymbidium was consistent on turf last season and rates the main threat ahead of Beatrice Shilling, who has made a decent start for this yard.
