Cliffs Of Capri²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: D C Costello| T: J A Osborne| OR: 92| D

8/1

Left Simon Crisford for 50,000gns in November 2017, initially continuing to run well for this trainer (1m Lingfield winner in January); not quite at that level of form since his return from a break, but does drop down from Class 2 company latest.

Form: 25-2107

Intrude^t²⁸²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Shelley Birkett⁽³⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 91| D

33/1

16L winner at Yarmouth in June 2017 (1m, good to soft), but well beaten on both subsequent starts in this grade (Class 3); off since September 2017, so it'll represent a fine training performance is he proves to be the solution.

Right Action³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: G Mosse| T: R A Fahey| OR: 90

20/1

Kept good form on the AW over the winter and carried that over into the first few weeks of the turf season with back-to-back 7f wins at Doncaster and Catterick (with cut); vulnerable off this mark in this grade on first run over 1m.

Form: 921178

Able Jack³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: M Dwyer| T: S C Williams| OR: 88| CD

10/1

AW specialist (3 from 7) and stablemate of Intrude; well beaten on return from a break on turf at Epsom latest, but better judged on his earlier Class 3 C&D win from a 4lb lower mark.

Form: 4-10119

Ifubelieveindreams⁵⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: I Mohammed| OR: 85| C| D

12/1

6lb above her last winning AW mark (1m Class 4 at Newcastle in February), but has came up short in Class 3 races since and races from a stiff looking perch from the widest draw in stall number 14.

Form: 412-160

Glory Awaits^b¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: S Donohoe| T: D M Simcock| OR: 82| CD

14/1

C&D winner from a 2lb lower mark in March, and whilst generally running to a solid level of form since (regularly finishing just outside of the places), looks likely to come up short again despite an obvious affinity with Chelmsford.

Form: 712445

Aquarium¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 90| C| D

25/1

50% AW strike rate (2 from 4), but now 10lb higher than when a ready 3¾L 7f winner here in March and inconsistent on turf since (including a couple of rather dismal efforts); trainer doubly represented.

Form: 217049

Sir Hamilton⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: R Winston| T: D P Quinn| OR: 89| CD

12/1

Sights lowered (ran in the Group 3 Craven Stakes on his penultimate start) and switched back to the AW from a mark which is 2lb above when finishing a short-head second to Book Of Dreams over C&D in March; AW record: 1,1,4,2.

Form: 1-14267

Book of Dreams³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 89| CD

20/1

Gradually lost his way since a fine start to the season which included a C&D Class 4 win (beat Sir Hamilton by a short-head); might appreciate the drop in grade, but still 3lb above his last winning mark; trainer doubly represented.

Form: 114700

(8)

Kenstone^p²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Wintle| OR: 79| CD

14/1

Easing mark helpful and is a two-time course winner, yet still 10lb above his Class 5 C&D win in March 2017 and although a dual turf winner since then, he needs to produce more than he has done so far in 2018.

Form: 1708-06

(6)

Executive Force^p¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Lemos De Souza| T: M Wigham| OR: 75

33/1

Won just once in 16 starts (6f soft, Newbury) and that was on his racecourse debut way back in September 2016; 0 from 4 on the AW (last twice over C&D), so hard to enthuse over despite a falling mark.

Form: 54-8086

(11)

The Eagle's Nest¹⁸⁴

33/1

Left Richard Fahey for 28,000gns after winning at Newcastle (1m2f) in October 2017, and followed up on stable debut over C&D in December; just 2lb higher here making his first start since early January after undergoing wind surgery.

Form: 04411-5

(5)

Maypole²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Harry Bentley| T: R Hannon| OR: 83| BF| D

3/1

Stablemate of Bullingdon and is a similar type (an improving 3yo); twice a winner over this kind of trip including on Tapeta at Wolverhampton; he's now 5lb above his last winning mark; enjoys racing prominently.

Form: 62-2114

Forecasts

Maypole (3/1), Bullingdon (4/1), Cliffs Of Capri (8/1), Able Jack (10/1), Sir Hamilton (12/1), Ifubelieveindreams (12/1), Glory Awaits (14/1), Kenstone (14/1), Book of Dreams (20/1), Right Action (20/1), Aquarium (25/1), The Eagle's Nest (33/1), Executive Force (33/1), Intrude (33/1)

A decent prize, which has drawn the competitive field that it deserves. Richard Hannon looks to have targeted this race with a pair of improving three-year-old's, with both Maypole and BULLINGDON potential major players. The former will surely help to force the pace and that's a difficult task against some battle-hardened handicappers with previous C&D winning form, so the Pat Dobbs ridden Bullingdon makes more appeal. He's made an encouraging start to his career (C&D winner), and he went down fighting in a three-way tussle with Ulshaw Bridge and the luckless Al Jellaby in a strong race at Doncaster last week.
