Mearall^h¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 85

3/1

Fairly useful as a juvenile and posted best effort yet, in first-time hood, when very good sixth of 24 in handicap at Royal Ascot (5f, firm, 100/1) 15 days ago, first home in group. Not taken lightly.

Form: 137-06

(7)

Naana's Sparkle¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Rowan Scott| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 83| D

5/1

Back to winning ways when narrowly taking 7-runner handicap (7/2) at Redcar (5f, firm) 14 days ago. Just 2 lb higher now and looks sure to go well again.

Form: 14-3381

(6)

Mission Command^p1,t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Darragh Keenan| T: George Scott| OR: 83| D

11/1

Dual winner at 2yrs who was shaping up well prior to a below-par sixth of 7 in handicap (13/2) at Redcar (5f, firm) 14 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Cheekpieces on first time. Others are more convincing.

Form: 81-5346

(2)

Al Hussar¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 80| D

8/1

Three-time winner last term who returned to best when ¾-length fourth of 7 to Naana's Sparkle in handicap at Redcar (5f, firm) 14 days ago. 1 lb lower now and warrants respect.

Form: 51-9094

(4)

I'm Next⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 76| D

5/1

Back on the up when making all in 11-runner handicap at Newcastle (5f) 9 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Dc Cogent. This looks tougher but he remains feasibly treated.

Form: 341-301

(3)

Dc Cogent⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Smart| OR: 76| D

6/1

Met trouble at crucial stage when good 1¼ lengths second of 11 to I'm Next in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 9 days ago. Raised just 1 lb since and is one for shortlist.

Form: 22-162

(8)

Luna A Inbhir Nis²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Jason Hart| T: K Scott| OR: 74| BF| D

4/1

Different proposition upon returning this year, continuing her rapid rate of progress when scoring for fourth time at Musselburgh (5f) last month. Far from disgraced, under 6 lb penalty, when fifth of 15 in handicap at York (5f, good to firm) 22 days ago and must enter calculations here.

Form: 191115

(9)

Tees Aggregates²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Jack Nicholls⁽⁷⁾| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 71| D

20/1

Back to winning ways in 5-runner handicap at Catterick (5f) in May but not been in same form either start since. Others more appealing.

Form: 6-26170

Non-Runners

End Of Story⁵⁹

Weight: 9-11| Age: 3

T: D M Loughnane J: Ray Dawson

Forecasts

Mearall (3/1), Luna A Inbhir Nis (4/1), Naana's Sparkle (5/1), I'm Next (5/1), Dc Cogent (6/1), Al Hussar (8/1), Mission Command (11/1), Tees Aggregates (20/1), End Of Story (25/1)

DC COGENT was denied a clear run late on when runner-up behind re-opposing I'm Next at Newcastle last time and remains low mileage. He can take advantage on these revsied terms here. Naana's Sparkle and aforementioned I'm Next rate the principal dangers.
