Best effort yet when chasing home a big improver at Southwell last time; high on list

C&D winner in June and only just beaten at Bath last month; one to take seriously
8 (2)	Opticality Bay J:Rhys Clutterbuck T:Mitchell Hunt	J:Rhys Clutterbuck T:Mitchell Hunt	132	v	7-0351	52	70	54	20d	—	—	-10	4.5	1.38/1	11/2 15%
Off the mark at the 18th attempt here last time; will need to better that to follow up

0-14, but has run well over C&D the last twice; no reason why she shouldn't go well again
2 (4)	Balqaa Bay J:Kevin Stott T:Stella Barclay	J:Kevin Stott T:Stella Barclay	137	—	689425	57	66	48	34d	—	—	+2	6.5	4.75/1	20 5%
2-25 with both wins coming at Newcastle; well held in one visit here and enough to prove

Form patchy since beating three rivals at Chelmsford in January; others more convincing
5 (1)	Tacitus Chestnut J:Dale Swift T:Tjade Collier	J:Dale Swift T:Tjade Collier	134	t	918277	54	52	12	13d	—	—	+4	6.1	9.75/1	40 3%
1-22 and no closer than fifth in seven starts on the AW; others more likely
9 (9)	Caracristi Bay J:Billy Garritty T:Philip Kirby	J:Billy Garritty T:Philip Kirby	129	—	933679	49	69	50	14d	—	—	0	2	16.25/1	66 2%
4lb lower than for her second C&D success in March, but well below form the last twice
