TIMEFORM VIEW Reacted well to first-time cheekpieces when springing 25/1 surprise over C&D 17 days ago. Raised 5lb but a bigger issue is probably whether the headgear has the same effect again. TFRHHHII BHA60

TIMEFORM VIEW 17/2, seventh of 9 in handicap at Beverley (1 1/2m, good to firm) 12 days ago. First-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) need to have a positive effect.

Stewards Note:

TIBERIO FORCE: Following its run on 31/5/2023 it was reported that the horse was hampered on the run-in.

Probable S.P.’s: 11-4 Iron Sheriff (IRE), 4-1 A Shining Moon (IRE), 5-1 Calcutta Dream (IRE), 6-1 Her Way (GB), 15-2 Mc’ted (GB), 12-1 Tiberio Force (GB), 28-1 Air of Approval (IRE), 33-1 Isla Diamonds (GB)

The vote goes to HER WAY who was a bit better than the result over 1 1/2m at Thirsk last week and can take advantage of her reduced mark back at her optimum trip. The thriving Iron Sherriff is clear second choice ahead of Mc’Ted.

Sue, Emma and Robert Carrigill will present a memento to the winning owner in the Winner’s Enclosure after this race. A cash prize of £50 will be presented to the stable employee in charge of the best turned out horse in this race.
