23rd Aug 2023 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Won at Carlisle (1m1f, good) in June and has continued in good form (including on fast ground), most recently winning an apprentice handicap by 14l at Doncaster (1m2f, good) last Saturday; he may be flattered by the bare form but escapes a penalty here and holds leading claims. |

String of consistent efforts this summer, winning at Carlisle (1m1f, good) in June and placed on all four outings since; likely to be in the thick of things again. |

24th Aug 2023 Good 1m 0f 14y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Ultra-consistent gelding whose two wins this year include one over C&D (good to soft) last month; again ran well when beaten less than a length into second of seven at Ffos Las (soft) eight days ago (due a 1lb rise), but wouldn't be sure to confirm form with the less-exposed Lunanera. |

16th Aug 2023 Heavy 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 11lb |
Has form figures 42212225221 in handicaps and he finished well when justifying favouritism at Chepstow (1m, good to soft; acts on soft) last month; that was a narrow success but he's only 2lb higher on this drop back in grade and is a key player. |

Runner-up in five of his six starts since gaining his only success at Bath (1m, good) in May, including at Nottingham (1m, soft) seven days ago; races off the same mark and should go well again, but may be vulnerable for win purposes. |

9st 2lb |
Inconsistent and unraced on slow turf, but he ran well in two handicaps on grass in May/June and was a close second in a maiden at Newcastle (1m, AW) nine days ago; this 3yo has leading claims if at the top of his game. |

Peak efforts when placed in low-grade handicaps over C&D in May and at Carlisle in June; exposed sort who is now 0-11 but has a fighting chance in this ordinary maiden event, granted a return to his best. |

9st 2lb |
Won a Brighton handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in June but he flopped in his final run for Charlie Johnston and made a low-key start for this yard 12 days ago; record now stands at 1-13 and has plenty to prove at this new trip. |

Off the mark (tenth attempt) when landing a Brighton handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in June but was allowed to dictate in that small-field event and his form nosedived in his final run for Charlie Johnston last month; changed hands for 6,000gns since and he needs a major revival for new yard; tongue-tie added. |

Yet to win but isn't fully exposed; has run respectably on two of three starts over this C&D (though bit to find with Balqaa on last week's C&D form) but more needed to win this. |

Eight-race maiden; unlucky not to finish closer to the target when seventh at Bath (1m, good; denied clear run in closing stages) last month but was behind stablemate Athene's Kiss when fifth at Brighton (1m, good to firm) a fortnight ago. |

3yo who has won just one of his 16 starts and is unraced on slow turf; when runner-up at Musselburgh last time he was beaten 11l but it was still a positive performance in today's context and he's a possible player. |
