1

Conde

Good second to smart New York City over a mile and won well next start this term.

2

Velato

Already a winner this season and on a right-handed track like Hamburg. He might be capable of more improvement.

3

Noshowlikeajoeshow

Rarely wins (3/30) and well down the field on 30 June.

4

Degas

Very smart in younger days but not so good at the tender age of 11.

5

Heyne’s Henry

Will appreciate the soft ground but rarely wins.

6

Auenfeuer

Seasonal and handicap debut plus first run for new trainer. Looks held on all known form.

7

Ace Aussie

Has won only once but good 2nd under topweight earlier in the year. His 4th place in higher class gives him a chance, and from a shrewd stable.

8

Kiko

Very easy winner of his last three races, up in class now. Soft ground an unknown, but trainer in flying form.

9

Schwarzer Wolf

Has form on soft and his owner who rarely ventures his horses into Handicap class, but hard to fancy on form.

10

Senador

Soft ground specialist, consistent form and could be lively outsider.

11

Sommersby

From a big yard. Ground and trip no worry, recent form a plus as well.

12

Son Gual

Sole win came on a minor track, but may be slightly tough in the weights right now.

13

Shoko Lady

Hasn’t run since March when winning a weak race on heavy ground. Must improve.

14

Repute

Out of form on recent starts but ran really well at this meeting last year from a similar handicap mark. It would be no surprise to see him running well here.

15

Chipping Away

Well handicapped. But is on a long losing run and not much encouragement based on recent efforts.

16

Malhumorada

Filly with one win to her name, no form lately. On minimum weight and ‘wrong’ in the handicap. An outsider.
