Act Of Violence

9st 5lb

J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Tony Carroll

Often leads; able to get to the stands' rail when a clear winner at Ripon (6f, good) in July on second start for the yard and, despite going back up 8lb, he's continued in good form since; involved again.

9st 5lb

J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Tony Carroll

Front-runner who has done well since joining Tony Carroll this summer, winning at Ripon (6f, good) in July and a close second here (5f, good to soft) last time; this return to fast ground is no problem and he's a key player back up in trip.

Act Of Violence

9st 9lb

J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Tony Carroll

Front-runner; scored at the second time of asking for Tony Carroll when much too strong for ten rivals at Ripon (6f, good) in July; good third at Newmarket 24 days ago; drops in trip and class and looks more appealing than many.

Act Of Violence

8st 8lb

J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Tony Carroll

He had been upset in the stalls when unable to justify favouritism on his stable debut in June but made no mistake when making all under Silvestre De Sousa at Ripon (6f, good) four weeks ago; 8lb rise still leaves him well treated on old form and he's of firm interest.

Act Of Violence

9st 8lb

J: Silvestre De Sousa

T: Tony Carroll

He's regressed and is winless since scoring over C&D in July 2024; only fourth of six on stable debut at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) three weeks ago but he was the 7-4 favourite and got upset in the stalls, and may have needed that run; interesting to see if he's again strong in the betting.

7/2
