T: Christopher Mason

C&D winner (firm) who was third back over C&D on her reappearance in May and ran to a similar level back here next time; produced a career-best effort when winning a Chepstow classified event (5f, good to firm) latest; needs a similar effort to defy this mark back in a handicap but there are plenty of positives, including with her yard among the winners.

Three-time course winner who returns here after clearcut success under Jack Doughty at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) nine days ago; slightly ahead of the handicapper under 4lb penalty and has obvious claims.

Form & Verdict
Has much better strike-rate on AW but opened his turf account in C&D (firm) classified last month and ought to be competitive again on this handicap return.

Front-runner who won at Lingfield (5f, AW) in March and was runner-up on her next two starts (5f, AW/firm); below par in a classified at Bath (5.7f, good) last time but could bounce back with a bold show back down in trip.

Unraced on slower than good; front-runner who won here over 5f in 2024; won on the AW at Lingfield in March and has posted two good efforts since, including when beaten 1l in a 5f handicap here 23 days ago; comes into this in better form than most.

Ten-race maiden who has not raced on turf since his debut last spring; managed only fifth of eight on latest AW start in May (6f) and needs to find something extra here.

J: Tyler Heard

This is only his third race on turf but he finished last and second last in the others; none of his 2025 or 2026 form reads well enough and his 0-33 overall record is probably the bottom line.

Poor maiden who's done most racing in sprints and not looked to see it out in a handful of starts over this trip; two poor efforts this spring leave him hard to recommend.
