Prediction Leader

Ziggy's Avenger (GB)

Ziggy's Avenger (GB)

0%

Gelded prior to showing improvement with keeping-on third at Kempton (1m, AW) on handicap debut last time; may build on that effort and take another step forward; respected off same mark.

Rest of field

Deep Sleep

Deep Sleep

0%

Five-race maiden; best form when fourth on two occasions, including at Hamilton (upped to 1m; handicap debut) latest start; again has frame possibilities but needs progress to get off the mark.

Paroda Diva (IRE)

Paroda Diva (IRE)

0%

Proved suited by the step up to 1m at Haydock (good to soft) last time, recording a first win since joining her current yard and belatedly doubling her tally; unexposed at this trip; shortlisted.

Karakula Dancer (GB)

Karakula Dancer (GB)

0%

Consistent record, mostly on AW, this year features three wins; posted a rare unplaced effort last time (behind Ziggy's Avenger) but shaped as if still in form; ran well on turf two starts ago; solid.

Popty Ping (GB)

Popty Ping (GB)

0%

Campaigned mostly on AW and overall record is just 1-18, the success in March; however, she continues in form and wasn't disgraced in most recent turf attempt; frame possibilities.

Talking In Kode (GB)

Talking In Kode (GB)

0%

Thrice-raced filly who fared best of the rest behind 2-13 shot in weak maiden at Beverley (7.5f) most recently; that form isn't hugely convincing but it gives her something to possibly build on.

What Fools Believe (GB)

What Fools Believe (GB)

0%

Opened her account in 1m AW handicap at Southwell in April; has failed to back up that form in two starts since, latest switched to turf; something to prove.

Cobalt Comet (GB)

Cobalt Comet (GB)

0%

Has posted third-place finishes over 1m at Southwell (AW) and Carlisle (soft) since switched to handicaps; has place claims as things stand and wouldn't need to improve much to open his account.
