Immediate Effect⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Poppy Scott| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 87| D

7/4

Laid down solid foundations in maiden/novice company and proved more professional when making a winning handicap debut at Southwell (1m) in June. Ran well from 6 lb higher when fourth back there 7 days ago and he's shortlisted back on turf.

Form: 12-214

(4)

Gloriously Sassy³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Jack Nicholls| T: K R Burke| OR: 78

13/2

Cotai Glory gelding who didn't need to improve when making it fifth time lucky in 10-runner maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 33 days ago, driven out. Well held from this mark on his respective handicap debut previously though, and likely he'll have to step up again here.

Form: 43301

Penfolds Grange^p1,t³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 76

4/1

Won 8.6f Wolverhampton maiden in November and bettered that form in defeat subsequently, tongue tied first time when very good third of 14 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Cheekpieces reached for now and he's of interest with likelihood of more to come.

Form: 31-373

(2)

Camino Del Ray³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 75

16/1

Won 6-runner maiden at Newcastle (7f) on debut in March and improved when runner-up in a 7f novice here next time. Underperformed twice since though, 8¼ lengths last of 6 to Immediate Effect in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 33 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 1276

(5)

Saxonia⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Archie Young| T: C Johnston| OR: 75| D

7/2

Hails from a yard going great guns and he gained reward for his consistency when doubling his career tally at Newmarket (1m) in June. 5 lb rise appeared enough to anchor him when eighth of 11 in handicap back there (7f) 9 days ago but this rates less demanding.

Form: 442218

(3)

Double Parked⁶⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Warren Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 73| C

8/1

Improved model this spring, putting his experience to good use when winning 8-runner novice here (7f) in May. Unable to take another step forward, despite being better placed than most when eleventh of 14 in handicap at York (7f, good) later that month but he's not one to write off.

Form: 88-3210

Forecasts

Immediate Effect (7/4), Saxonia (7/2), Penfolds Grange (4/1), Gloriously Sassy (13/2), Double Parked (8/1), Camino Del Ray (16/1)

IMMEDIATE EFFECT arrives on the back of a very good fourth in a Southwell handicap that was backed up by the timefigure and, having already proven his effectiveness on turf, Sir Mark Prescott's charge looks to hold prime claims of getting back on the scoresheet here. Penfolds Grange following his good third at Chester may provide chief resistance, ahead of Saxonia.
