1400m – Turf

1

Planteur’s Whiskey

Raced in several Class 2 races lately so comes down in class today. Likely to be thereabouts despite carrying top weight.

2

Savoya

Derby-winning jockey who can still claim again in the saddle. Very good third at Dortmund latest start.

3

Conde

Well beaten when last seen in July 2024. Top local jockey booked but up against it after such a long lay-off.

4

Grey Sparkle

Should be favoured by soft ground. Top jockey booked and good chance.

5

Royal Ice

Local raider and won over C&D in May. No show in a valuable race in Hamburg after. Winning jockey booked again but tough at the weights.

6

Piu Bella

Acts on any surface and is consistent. Good chance.

7

Golden Passport

Won here in May over slightly further, his second victory so far. Stable struggling for winners. An outsider.

8

Lucia Aratori

Out of form, so handicap mark on career low. Pick of form from last year gives him a shout though. Interesting outsider if coping with conditions.

9

Icatu

Three good runs lately gives him an each-way chance in this.

10

Vamos A Marte

Huge disappointment latest when well fancied. She could make amends for her top yard that rarely ventures runners into handicap class.

11

Noelle

Czech raider whose last two runs give her an each-way squeak at big odds.

12

Mademoiselle Lilly

Has bits and pieces of form but stable out of form of late.

13

Son Gual

In fine form and still on a manageable handicap mark, so clearly has chances.

14

Storm Kodi

Very much out of form of late though on a potentially good handicap mark.

15

Djariya

Slightly ‘wrong’ at the weights but still looks to have a decent chance.
