Zenga³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Ray Dawson| T: R Varian| OR: 85

11/4

Thrice-raced filly got off mark in 6-runner minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 37 days ago. Opening mark requires bit of improvement but that looks guaranteed from this scopey sort.

Form: 431

Cubana Habana⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: J P Spencer| T: R A Fahey| OR: 84

11/1

Thrice-raced gelding got off mark at Hamilton on penultimate outing. 13/8, bumped into useful sort when second of 10 in minor event at Thirsk (8f, good to firm) 43 days ago. Steps up in trip for handicap debut.

Form: 312

(7)

Royal Aviation²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: K P De Foy| OR: 82

9/2

Won back to back handicaps at Kempton and Windsor in the spring and has been placed all 3 starts since, shaped well when a close third over 1m here last time. Will continue to give a good account.

Form: 311233

Le Forban¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Ryan Sexton⁽⁵⁾| T: George Baker| OR: 81| CD

7/2

Has won twice here this season, including over C&D in June. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. First disappointing effort for a while when last of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (11.2f, good to firm) 13 days ago and can't be fully ruled out if back to form.

Form: 5-15150

Postmark^h1,t1³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: L Dettori| T: M F Harris| OR: 81

7/1

Produced a career best when winning 9-runner minor event (17/2) at Ffos Las (8f, good) 37 days ago, responding well. Back up in trip. Goes back into handicaps from 5 lb higher mark on first run for yard after leaving Ralph Beckett.

Form: 64-3441

He's A Gentleman^v1¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: B A Curtis| T: H Palmer| OR: 80

12/1

Consistent sort again ran respectably when fourth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good) 10 days ago. Visor goes on for polytrack debut but others may have more in hand from handicapper.

Form: 522234

(3)

They Don't Know^b,t³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: S M Levey| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 72

4/1

Remains a maiden, though has finished runner-up on 6 occasions without hinting at any attitude problems. Edged out only late on at Kempton last time (winner has won twice again since) so looks on very competitive mark.

Form: 2-22252

(8)

Rogue Mission^t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Callum Shepherd| T: M F Harris| OR: 71| CD

125/1

Narrow winner for Tom Clover in January and looked in need of experience on yard debut when fifth of 6 in juvenile hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, good) 14 days ago. Others more persuasive switched back to the level.

Form: 7127

Forecasts

Zenga (11/4), Le Forban (7/2), They Don't Know (4/1), Royal Aviation (9/2), Postmark (7/1), Cubana Habana (11/1), He's A Gentleman (12/1), Rogue Mission (125/1)

THEY DON'T KNOW is fancied to finally get off the mark after a series of near misses, with the form of his recent Kempton second looking particularly strong. Zenga remains with considerable potential on her handicap bow and is feared most, with the consistent Royal Aviation also holding convincing claims.
