J: Pat Dobbs

T: David Evans

All ground seems to come alike to him and he gained his second C&D success (good to firm) last month, but a 4lb rise appeared to anchor him in his two outings since; may need the returning visor to perk him up a bit.

J: Oisin Murphy

T: David Evans

Prominent racer who was well held at Chepstow last time, but that was a Class 4 event and he won that track (5f, good to firm) on his penultimate run; remains well treated on his old form and has claims if he can bounce back on this drop back in grade; acts on fast and soft ground.

Form & Verdict
Near miss over C&D in June; only midfield in stronger company on his next two starts but showed he was still a major force at Class 5 level with his last-gasp success at Bath 13 days ago (5.5f, good to firm); 4lb rise manageable; set to go well again.

Form & Verdict
Front-runner; having a good season, winning twice on good or slower (handles any ground); 4lb better off with Treacherous on their latest Bath run and she should make another bold bid.

Acts on any ground and mainly consistent, again running with credit when third of eight here (7f, good to soft) on Saturday; has only managed to win one of her last 32 starts, though, and may prefer further than this now.

Acts on any ground, but the last nine of her ten wins have been over sprint trips; has had some close calls over C&D this summer but she's not easy to predict and has been well held in her last two runs; risks attached.

Seven-time course winner who's become hard to win with, landing just one of her last 30 starts; she's not been this low in the weights for years but isn't as good now; yard also responsible for Savannah Smiles.

Form & Verdict
Showed promise in five runs for Charles Hills; made a winning stable debut at Bath 13 days ago (5f, good to firm), appearing to have more in hand than the winning margin of a short head (inexperienced apprentice on board); partnered by another 7lb claimer tonight but capable of a big run up just 2lb.

C&D winner; well beaten here in handicaps in May and June; produced her best effort for over a year when winning going away in a Lingfield classified event (6f, good) latest; well treated on her return to this sphere if repeating that effort but it's hard to predict if she will.

Sole win from 29 starts was at Bath (5f, good to firm) in August 2024; ran respectably in a classified event there (5.7f) two weeks ago but this looks tough on the figures and others are preferred.

Confirmed the promise of her Kempton debut (1m) by winning a 5.5f fillies' novice at Bath in April (soft); not at the same level at Lingfield (6f, AW) last month but she makes her handicap debut with the prospect of further improvement; new trip and ground to deal with this time but foolish to discount.
