Korker²²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Jack Nicholls⁽⁷⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 103

7/2

Now 14 runs since last win but he returned to form when third of 16 in a handicap at York (14/1) 22 days ago, racing off the pace and keeping on well after picking way through. Has to be taken seriously in this slightly easier race.

Form: 359-903

Commanche Falls^b²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 100| CD

7/1

Useful handicapper who tends to need a run or two at the start of the season. Finished 10th of 16 in a handicap at York (17/2) 22 days ago, sweating up beforehand and going through the race as if still a bit rusty. Blinkers back on today and should be sharper with those two seasonal runs under his belt.

Form: 4658-70

Tropical Island¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 90| D

13/2

Largely disappointing in 2024 but well prepared following 7 months off to readily win 7-runner handicap at Ripon (15/2) 18 days ago (tongue strap and cheekpieces removed). Back to her best and looks capable of following up under similar conditions.

Form: 09473-1

Vantheman²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 88| D

5/2

Lightly-raced sprinter who took a backward step when eleventh of 17 in a handicap at York (8/1) 21 days ago, awkwardly away and making no impact. Back up to 6f, the trip he shaped well over at Newmarket in April.

Form: 0154-50

Fahrenheit Seven⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 86| D

2/1

Admirably consistent performer with 4 wins from 11 starts. Fourth of 7 in a handicap at Newmarket (7f) at 14/1 50 days ago, emerging with credit under a penalty against more progressive rivals. Back down in trip and is 1 lb lower.

Form: 131-314

Count D'Orsay^p⁴⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 8-11| J: Amie Waugh⁽³⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 82| C| D

33/1

Won twice on heavy ground at Catterick last October. Finished 10th of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (66/1) 40 days ago, looking rusty after a break. Uphill task from just out of the weights.

Forecasts

Fahrenheit Seven (2/1), Vantheman (5/2), Korker (7/2), Aleezdancer (4/1), Tropical Island (13/2), Commanche Falls (7/1), Count D'Orsay (33/1)

TROPICAL ISLAND bounced back to her best when winning readily at Ripon on return 18 days ago and looks capable of following up from 7 lb higher. Korker returned to form when third at York recently and is feared most, while Commanche Falls should be sharper with two runs under his belt and more severe headgear employed.
