Starshiba^v¹¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: Jack Dace| T: Jack Morland| OR: 65| D

10/1

Latest win at Lingfield in December. Seventh of 8 in handicap (20/1) at Kempton (7f). Off 113 days and this 8-y-o looks vulnerable under topweight.

Form: 61-5747

(4)

Renesmee^p¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: K S McHugh⁽⁵⁾| T: Michael Keady| OR: 64| D

2/1

Respectable third of 6 in handicap (11/1) at Leicester (10f, good to firm) 12 days ago, well positioned. Strike rate is pretty modest (2-29), but she is likely to have a say nevertheless.

Form: 258-233

Jazz Scene⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Ashley Lewis| T: J Parr| OR: 64| D

9/2

7/1, first run since leaving Sir Mark Prescott Bt when last of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (8f, good to firm) 60 days ago. Opposable.

Form: 67134-0

Rainwater^p¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Ethan Tindall⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 63| D

7/4

11/2, improved on recent efforts to win 13-runner handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Remains on a workable mark up 3 lb and he's the one to beat.

Form: 400541

Brinton^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Jack Callan| T: J G Portman| OR: 56| D

6/1

Three wins from 12 runs this year, the latest at Brighton in May. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Bath (8f, good to firm, 9/1) 12 days ago. Unlikely to be far away.

Forecasts

Rainwater (7/4), Renesmee (2/1), Jazz Scene (9/2), Brinton (6/1), Starshiba (10/1)

Neither RAINWATER nor Renesmee boast particularly good strike rates, but they both arrive here in good heart and can fight out the finish. Preference is for the former, who has only gone up 3 lb for his recent Hamilton success. Brinton is best of the rest.
