Chasseral^h,t³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 72| D

9/2

Winner of a Newcastle novice on final 2-y-o start and kicked off last term with a string of decent efforts in higher-grade handicaps. Well held on return/debut for new yard but there were more encouraging signs at Windsor (5f, good to firm) last time and she's a player down 2 lb and back at 6f.

Form: 8554-94

Strike¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Olivia Tubb⁽⁷⁾| T: J G Portman| OR: 70| D

4/1

Doubled his tally when making a successful reappearance at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in April. Backed that up when third off this 3 lb higher mark at Salisbury a fortnight ago and he should give another good account.

Form: 2644-13

Hurt You Never³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Mia Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 70| CD

8/1

Enjoyed a rich vein of form last May/June, completing the four-timer when bagging this prize 12 months ago. Back in the winning groove at Ripon (5f, good to firm) and while this 6 lb higher mark asks a question (she's yet to win off a mark this high), another bold show is anticipated.

Lipsink¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 68| D

5/2

Failed to get his head in front for Robert Cowell in 2023 but dipped to an attractive mark as a consequence and, having changed hands for for 9,000 gns earlier this month, he made a winning return for new connections at Nottingham (6f, good) 12 days ago. Remains feasibly treated up 4 lb.

Form: 52048-1

Snuggle⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Charles Bishop| T: L A Dace| OR: 68| D

11/2

Little impact first 3 starts for this yard on the AW but back in good heart since returned to turf, striking at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in April before finishing just one too good over the same C&D. Put in another good shift when a close third at Salisbury (7f, good) recently and he's a player.

Form: 8-70123

Kodi Red¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: David Probert| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 67| D

11/1

Fallen a long way in the weights and stepped up on reappearance when respectable third of 10 in handicap at Haydock (6f, firm) earlier this month. However, failed to fire at Leicester recently and others make more appeal.

Form: 600-030

(6)

Impeach^p³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: R Havlin| T: M J Attwater| OR: 62| D

25/1

Narrowly prevailed off a 6 lb higher mark at Chelmsford in November but more miss than hit since and he's 0-11 on turf.

Form: 0-83976

(8)

Kensington Agent¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 60| D

18/1

Has slipped to a dangerous mark (now 8 lb lower compared to when last successful at Wolverhampton in April 2023) but there were no real signs of an imminent revival at Goodwood last time.

Form: 0-54868

Nancy Rose²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 64

25/1

Positive start to her career when a close second on debut in a C&D novice last summer but missed the rest of her 2-y-o campaign and safely held all 3 starts so far this season, including on handicap debut at Windsor.

Form: 2-787

Forecasts

Lipsink (5/2), Strike (4/1), Chasseral (9/2), Snuggle (11/2), Hurt You Never (8/1), Kodi Red (11/1), Kensington Agent (18/1), Impeach (25/1), Nancy Rose (25/1)

CHASSERAL is interesting down to 0-70 company for the first time and back up to 6f having finished her race off nicely when fourth of 11 in a Windsor handicap last month. She is on a good mark judged on her peak form for Andrew Balding and gets the nod ahead of last year's winner Hurt You Never, who did the job well at Ripon and is feared greatly, despite going up 6 lb. Lipsink is third choice ahead of Strike and Snuggle.
