Shiplake²¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: C Hills| OR: 75| D

3/1

Promising individual. 5/2, won 7-runner novice at Newcastle (6f) on the second of his 2 starts as a juvenile. That form is nothing to write home about, but he's open to improvement now handicapping off what looks a fair opening mark.

Form: 61-

Rock N Roll Rocket¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D C Costello| T: D Loughnane| OR: 73| C| D

16/1

Course winner. Latest win here in May. 14/1, creditable sixth of 12 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Place possbilities.

Kalahari Blue²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 73

12/1

Tenth of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Each-way chance judged on her C&D second in a maiden on penultimate start.

Form: 5326-20

(10)

Rogue Dancer⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: P J McDonald| T: Jack Jones| OR: 73| CD

5/1

C&D winner in April. 10/3, fifth of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 51 days ago. Low-key though that effort was, it would be no surprise to see this filly get back on track returned to the AW.

Form: 0741-15

Reddeef^v²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Callum Shepherd| T: C Fellowes| OR: 73

11/1

12/1 and visored for 1st time, creditable fourth of 10 in maiden at Catterick (6f, good) 24 days ago. Will need to find improvement from somewhere if he's to open his account here.

Form: 3527-64

Queue Dos^b1⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: J S Moore| OR: 71| CD

11/4

C&D winner. 20/1, good second of 14 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago, well positioned. Blinkers on 1st time and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 217-372

(2)

Amerjeet^b²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 71

12/1

Sixth of 9 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good to firm, 40/1) 20 days ago. Back up in trip and it's easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 703-506

(4)

Skellig Isle²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: T Ward| OR: 70

28/1

4/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, good) 20 days ago. Back up in trip for this tapeta debut and she's likely to come up short once more.

Form: 1030-06

(11)

Have I Told You²⁰⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Hart| T: John O'Donoghue| OR: 67

14/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (7f), finding less than looked likely. Off 6 months ahead of this handicap debut, but she's open to improvement and this drop back in trip looks a good move.

Form: 504-

(5)

Style King²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Marco Ghiani| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 66

15/2

Eighth of 9 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good to firm, 12/1) 20 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip and he is not completely ruled out returned to this course having found just one to good over C&D on return/handicap bow in April.

Form: 87-2008

Forecasts

Queue Dos (11/4), Shiplake (3/1), Rogue Dancer (5/1), Sands Of Dubai (13/2), Style King (15/2), Reddeef (11/1), Kalahari Blue (12/1), Amerjeet (12/1), Have I Told You (14/1), Rock N Roll Rocket (16/1), Skellig Isle (28/1)

The Newcastle novice SHIPLAKE won on the second of his two starts as a 2-y-o wasn't a particularly strong race, but this Lope de Vega colt is nonetheless promising and he is taken to make a winning start in handicap company off a mark that doesn't look too demanding. Queue Dos put in a good shift at Windsor last week and she is feared most ahead of handicap debutante Have I Told You and Kalahari Blue.
