COMPETIZIONE (3.30 Salisbury, nap)

Champion jockey Oisin Murphy takes over from Rab Havlin on this three-year-old who has improved with every run for the Gosdens. He missed his juvenile season and badly needed his debut at Newmarket in April before going down in a tight finish at Donny. He hit the crossbar at Chelmsford 19 days ago and looks ready to win. This trip suits and he’s progressive.

VIBRANT PEARL (5.40 Catterick, nb)

Has been second on both starts, including in a photo last time out. She enjoyed the drop back to five furlongs there but stayed further on debut and that stamina could be an asset in the holding conditions. She doesn’t need much more to get off the mark.

JACK SPARROW GREY (6.50 Fontwell, treble)

Has won all three starts at this track by growing margins. He sees out this trip strongly and his rider’s 5lb claim can help defy the handicapper again.

LAUDABLE (6.10 Catterick, Lucky 15)

Was rusty on return before taking a big step forward when second at Ayr three weeks ago. He has winning form at this tricky track and has dropped to a handy weight.
