#	Horse	Jockey / Trainer	Wt	Gear	Form	OR	RPR	TS	Last	Crs	Dst	Val	Scr	EW	Odds
3 (4)	Kento gr/b J:Rob Hornby T:Tom Clover	J:Rob Hornby T:Tom Clover	132	b	236483	61	75	47	17d	—	—	-9	13	0.69/1	11/4 27%
Best drawn when third at Lingfield (6f, good) but the new blinkers helped that day as well
7 (1)	Chiedozie Brown J:Josephine Gordon T:Phil McEntee	J:Josephine Gordon T:Phil McEntee	130	b	456062	59	76	-	17d	—	0W/0P 1 run	-6	12.7	0.88/1	7/2 22%
Surprising to see the blinkers back on but ran well last time and needs considering
1 (6)	Dusk Dame Bay J:Christian Howarth(3) T:Alice Haynes	J:Christian Howarth(3) T:Alice Haynes	139	tv	317451	68	73	54	8d	—	—	+6	20.9	1.13/1	9/2 18%
This new headgear worked when seeing off three rivals at Ffos Las (5f, heavy)
2 (3)	Smooth Silesie Chestnut J:Callum Shepherd T:Lisa Williamson	J:Callum Shepherd T:Lisa Williamson	133	b	023413	62	77	44	8d	—	—	+2	20.3	1.00/1	4/1 20%
Did well to win at Lingfield and the ground was testing when third at Ffos Las
6 (5)	Lieutenant Rascal Bay J:Tyler Heard T:Phil McEntee	J:Tyler Heard T:Phil McEntee	131	v	645448	60	74	62	6d	—	—	-3	4.6	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Extremely hard to recommend after his last three races; visor replaces cheekpieces
4 (7)	Southbank Bay J:Olivia Haines(7) T:Stuart Williams	J:Olivia Haines(7) T:Stuart Williams	132	t	110670	61	76	68	24d	—	—	0	6.7	3.00/1	12/1 8%
Disappointing in his recent races and 6f has always looked his best trip
5 (2)	Marching Mac Bay J:Raul Da Silva T:Phil McEntee	J:Raul Da Silva T:Phil McEntee	131	t	672535	60	76	36	19d	—	0W/0P 1 run	+2	7.7	5.50/1	22/1 4%
0-7; best effort when second in a Brighton handicap (7f); below that level since
