Unforgetable Belle^h,t²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 60

33/1

Won in heavy going last October but little win threat this season, seventh of 9 at Kempton (33/1) 23 days ago with first-time tongue strap, weakening late. Significant step up in trip today and remains with plenty to prove.

Form: 51-5007

Rose Warrior¹¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Jack Doughty| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 59

10/1

One of the first off the bridle when eighth of 12 in a 1m novice at Windsor (200/1) 116 days ago, showing first signs of ability after two previous poor runs. Making handicap debut today over a more suitable trip but may prove yard second string (trainer also saddles Penn Avenue).

Berkshire Smudge¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Tyrese Cameron⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss R Curtis| OR: 59

18/1

Maiden ran creditably at Beverley in April but lost his way for Andrew Balding. Fifth of 7 in handicap at this course (12f) (8/1) 16 days ago racing freely on first start for current connections. Will need to settle better if he's to get home over middle-distances.

Form: 6-73805

Honour Whim^p³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 59

7/2

Has shown fair form in 10f handicaps including when fifth in a better race here last month, but finished 8th of 11 at Windsor (8/1) 32 days ago, always on the back foot after rearing leaving the stalls. Ought to be more competitive if getting away on terms.

Form: 0-85558

Penn Avenue³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Rob Hornby| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 58| BF

6/4

Improving handicapper who confirmed the promise of previous outings when landing 10-runner contest at Lingfield (9f) and progressed again when second of 9 in handicap at Catterick (12f) at 7/4 37 days ago, showing a willing attitude behind a subsequent winner. That form sets the standard here.

Form: 0-25312

Parisian Phoenix^p1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 55

11/2

Hinted at not being straightforward in earlier starts and has made more impact upped in trip, with two creditable efforts in handicaps. Third of 7 in a 10f handicap at Brighton (10/1) 23 days ago, racing freely. Lightly-raced and could go well if cheekpieces have the desired effect.

Form: 05443

Fixated¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Joey Haynes| T: S Dixon| OR: 50

80/1

Shown little in three starts over shorter trips, finishing fifth of 8 in maiden at Wolverhampton (125/1) 19 days ago. Worth a market check now upped in trip on handicap debut.

Form: 985

(6)

Beaune⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Aidan Keeley| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 45

9/2

Has fallen a long way in the weights (races from 1 lb out of the handicap) and ran well when second of 5 in a handicap over 12f at Ffos Las (11/2) 7 days ago, making rapid headway over 2f out having not been ideally placed. Can be slowly away but isn't without a chance if things fall right.

Form: 536452

Forecasts

Penn Avenue (6/4), Honour Whim (7/2), Beaune (9/2), Parisian Phoenix (11/2), Rose Warrior (10/1), Berkshire Smudge (18/1), Unforgetable Belle (33/1), Fixated (80/1)

PENN AVENUE arrives on the up, winning at Lingfield prior to running a determined second behind a subsequent winner at Catterick last time and she's fancied to resume winning ways. Parisian Phoenix has improved since stepping up in trip and could prove the main danger if first-time cheekpieces have a positive effect, while Honour Whim wasn't disgraced in a better race at this course earlier in the season and may be best of the rest.
