Juryman¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Joanna Mason| T: J Coward| OR: 54

14/1

Unreliable sort. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 8/1) 11 days ago. Now 11 lb below last winning mark but opposable all the same.

Form: 08-7607

Porfin^p⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Josephine Gordon| T: P S McEntee| OR: 53| D

7/2

Latest win at Yarmouth in June. 5/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 8 days ago. Remains on a workable mark and another bold show anticipated.

Snow Berry^p¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 52| CD

3/1

12/1, won 8-runner handicap at this course (5f, good to firm) 19 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Back up in trip and while a shade more will be needed up 4 lb, she has to enter calculations.

Form: 430-991

Sounds Of Spring^b,t¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: N Callan| T: J Butler| OR: 50| D

8/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good, 6/1) 13 days ago. Booking of Callan a plus and tongue strap back on but he nevertheless looks vulnerable.

Form: 060077

Company Minx⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 49| D

12/1

12/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good to soft) 42 days ago. Up in trip. Others make more appeal.

Form: 81765-6

My Boy Jack^b⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁵⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 45| D

14/1

Two wins from 44 Flat runs. Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 22/1) 8 days ago, hampered. Opposable.

Delagate The Lady^t1²²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: Rowan Scott| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 45| D

12/1

33/1, first run since leaving Robyn Brisland when below form seventh of 18 in minor event at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 22 days ago. That effort wasn't completely devoid of promise and she's slipped to a handy mark. Tongue strap on 1st time.

Form: 93857-7

Destiny's Spirit^p³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Shariq Mohd⁽⁷⁾| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 45

6/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Good third of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Salisbury (6f, good) 3 days ago. Couldn't rule out off this lowly mark.

Form: 8-95553

Forecasts

Snow Berry (3/1), Porfin (7/2), Gatwick Kitten (5/1), Destiny's Spirit (6/1), Sounds Of Spring (8/1), Delagate The Lady (12/1), Company Minx (12/1), My Boy Jack (14/1), Juryman (14/1)

The vote goes to PORFIN, who has returned to form with cheekpieces refitted of late, scoring at Yarmouth and twice hitting the crossbar at Wolverhampton from four outings since the headgear went back on. He did well under the circumstances on his latest start and can go well back on turf. Gatwick Kitten will be a threat if back to his best, while Destiny's Spirit and Delagate The Lady have both slipped to handy marks. Recent course winner Snow Berry also has claims.
