Verdict

The C&D race QITAAL finished second to Yermanthere looks the key piece of form here, with the Charlie Johnston inmate tentatively selected to reverse the form. 3-y-o Wild Violet is at a different stage of her career and is a potential improver in handicaps.

2	On a losing run but turned in his best effort of the season dropped in grade when second of 7 in a C&D handicap last month. Cast aside a lesser effort at Beverley when third at Ayr 2 weeks ago and this is a slight drop in class. 1st Pick 2 Qitaal Jockey: Connor Beasley Trainer: Charlie Johnston J: Connor Beasley T: Charlie Johnston	100	-	-	-	23%	7/2

3	Snapped a long losing run when winning 7-runner C&D handicap last month, well served by the sound gallop and beating Qitaal by a head. Sound second at Pontefract 11 days later and he can remain very competitive. 2nd Pick 3 Yermanthere (Ire) Jockey: David Allan Trainer: Tim Easterby J: David Allan T: Tim Easterby	98	-	-	-	17%	5/1

4	Similar form all 3 starts, shedding maiden status at Salisbury over this trip a month ago. Opening mark isn't obviously generous but she's not yet exposed. 3rd Pick 4 Wild Violet (Fr) Jockey: Oisin James Orr Trainer: Michael Bell J: Oisin James Orr T: Michael Bell	91	-	-	-	36%	9/5
