Eddaari (C)
FAV
New Bay colt. Showed promise all 3 runs at 2 yrs and got off the mark on his return in 8-runner maiden at Newcastle (1m) 33 days ago. This step up in distance should really suit so he's a player on his handicap debut.

Billy Loughnane | S & E Crisford | 3 | 61.7 kg |

Royal Poetry (F)
Lope De Vega filly got off the mark in 4-runner novice at Wolverhampton and advanced her form when second of 4 on her handicap debut at Salisbury (1¼m) 13 days ago. In the mix.

Alpine Culture (G)
Showcasing gelding who took another step forward when third of 9 in maiden at Yarmouth (1m) 16 days ago. Up in trip with more to offer now going handicapping.

9/1

| 2nd | 5 | 1 |
Sharp Romance (F)
Built on debut promise when landing 12-runner maiden at Kempton (1m) 16 days ago. This Advertise filly goes into handicaps with more needed at these weights.
|
Ashley Lewis | P J McBride | 3 | 57.6 kg |

| 5th | 6 | 8 |
Battosai (C)
Has hinted at promise on his 3 runs, eleventh of 25 in maiden at Newbury (1m) 28 days ago. Handicap debutant.

| 1st | 7 | 5 |
Folk Pageant (F)
Landed 1m Lingfield maiden in March but she came in last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (1m) 44 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Rowan Scott | C Johnston | 3 | 57.2 kg |

|
| 4th | 8 | 7 |
Guest House (G)
Much improved on her return when getting off the mark in 6-runner handicap at Yarmouth (1m) 16 days ago. Weighted to go well over this longer trip despite a 5 lb rise.

J F Egan | G G Margarson | 3 | 53.1 kg |
