Up 3lb but she's had just five races and brings clear potential for this sort of trip
4 (11)	Duke Of Verona Grey J:Oisin Murphy T:Harry Eustace	J:Oisin Murphy T:Harry Eustace	132	—	/19-35	82	94	61	30d	—	—	-12	16.9	0.63/1	5/2 29%
Made a promising seasonal/stable debut; needs to put his run one month ago well behind him
2 (5)	Cavern Club Chestnut J:Rossa Ryan T:James Owen	J:Rossa Ryan T:James Owen	133	p	9-9031	83	96	84	21d	—	—	-4	13.5	1.25/1	5/1 17%
Last-gasp 1m4f winner on stable debut, so he may be worth this third attempt at 1m6f
8 (1)	Saligo Bay Bay J:Jim Crowley T:Gary & Josh Moore	J:Jim Crowley T:Gary & Josh Moore	127	—	4150-6	77	95	80	26d	—	—	0	9.4	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Respectable return to Flat last month but his only race over this far on Flat was in 2021
1 (2)	Bashful Boy Bay J:Neil Callan T:David Pipe	J:Neil Callan T:David Pipe	136	—	21154-	86	95	82	—	—	—	+13	19.9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Did well last year on the Flat; the concern is that he's gone downhill since over hurdles
10 (9)	Western Stars Bay J:William Buick T:Jim Boyle	J:William Buick T:Jim Boyle	123	—	3-0035	73	96	69	21d	—	—	+1	10.4	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Clearly best of four runs this year was respectable third at Newbury on penultimate outing
7 (6)	Cinnodin Bay J:David Egan T:Richard Hughes	J:David Egan T:Richard Hughes	130	b	53-170	80	94	63	21d	—	—	+1	10	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Better than ever for AW win in April but lost the plot in two starts since; new headgear
11 (3)	Alshadhian Bay J:Saffie Osborne T:Alan King	J:Saffie Osborne T:Alan King	120	—	4542-9	70	97	53	21d	—	—	+2	6.1	7.00/1	28/1 3%
0-5 for Ralph Beckett; 2nd at Haydock (1m6f, good) for him but poor on reappearance (soft)
NR (7)	Blindedbythelights Bay J:NON-RUNNER T:Sir Mark Prescott Bt	J:NON-RUNNER T:Sir Mark Prescott Bt	133	—	2122-4	83	96	-	50d	—	—	—	8.3	—	—
Both 3yo wins were over about 1m4f but he was also a good second on sole attempt at 1m6f
NR (4)	Dancing In Paris Bay J:William Buick T:Ian Williams	J:William Buick T:Ian Williams	131	—	808212	81	97	86	8d	—	—	—	22.3	—	—
Going back up to 1m4f for last two starts has seen him to good effect; 1m6f is new though
NR (8)	Rhythmic Intent Chestnut J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Stuart Williams	J:Silvestre De Sousa T:Stuart Williams	130	—	683052	80	98	82	10d	—	—	—	13.4	—	—
Solid second at Nottingham ten days ago but he's had no win since 2021
