9st 4lb |
Runner-up on three of his last four starts, most recently in first-time cheekpieces (retained) at Ripon (5f, good) 11 days ago; last win came on soft ground; each-way contender off the same mark as last time. |

In and out this year but his last two runs over 5f have seen him finish second here (behind Woobay) and at Musselburgh (both good ground); should give it another good go. |

9yo whose losing streak goes all the way back to May 2021 but he's run some good races this year and is on a career-low mark; in with a chance. |

18th Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 3y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
9yo whose losing streak goes all the way back to May 2021 and this is a warm little race, but he's dropped down the weights and was a close third at Thirsk (5f, good) on Friday night; might not be far away. |
10/1 |

3rd 2 (9) |
16th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Now 8lb lower than for his close second at Musselburgh in April; he's run some fair races in defeat since without taking advantage of his drop in the weights; fair third over C&D last week but needs more to win this. |

9st 13lb |
Went close at Windsor (5f, good to firm) in May and won at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) last month on second run since wind surgery; this C&D winner is not discounted but she's been inconsistent this year and was only fifth at Windsor (5f, good to firm) most recently; unproven on slow ground. |

Yet to hit peak form this season but did pretty well to finish fourth at Chester (5f, good) 11 days ago, having raced wide throughout and remained prominent until well inside the final furlong; another 2lb lower here; might be the answer. |

9st 5lb |
Front-runner who won over C&D (good) in June and was placed over C&D the next twice before a 1l second at Chester most recently, when her saddle reportedly slipped; has also won on soft going; at the top of her game and can make another bold bid under regular rider Jack Doughty. |
9/2 |

2nd 1 (7) |
27th Jul 2024 Good 0m 5f 15y Class 5 |
10st 1lb |
Likes to force it and ran out a 2l winner at Haydock on reappearance (5f, good); another good run back there last week when faring best of the trailblazers; not particularly well drawn for her running style but by no means dismissed. |
3/1 |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
3yo who won at York (5f, good to soft) in July and ran creditably the next twice; not at his very best the last twice but he's on a competitive mark and can't be written off. |
12/1 |
|
10th 3 (7) |
22nd Aug 2024 Standard To Slow 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Good chance if reproducing the form he showed when winning at York (5f, good to soft) last month; probably best to strike a line through Monday's Windsor run where he pulled hard over 6f in a race that didn't set up for the closers; others still more appealing for win purposes though. |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 12lb |
Three-time AW winner who got off the mark on turf at the 14th attempt, at Brighton (5.2f, good to firm) on Monday; also effective on good to soft; she won that four-runner handicap in fine style and is entitled to respect under a 5lb penalty, but today's company is more demanding. |
4/1 |

1st 2 (3) |
2nd Sep 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 60y Class 5 |

Triple AW winner who is 0-13 on turf but she's run respectably at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) and Nottingham (5f, good) in her last two runs; returns after another short break but she's generally reliable and shouldn't be far away. |

6th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Disappointing over C&D (good to firm) last time but has had a break since and she's a player if tapping back into the promise shown when runner-up over C&D (good) two starts ago; versatile ground-wise. |

22nd Jun 2024 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |

Three 5f handicap wins (good to firm-soft) last season; better with each run this year, finishing a creditable 2l second of 13 over C&D latest; can play a prominent role again. |

10yo prominent-racer who has been inconsistent this year but has shown plenty of spark on occasions and is edging back down the weights; tends to ply his trade in a higher grade than this and he's not ruled out. |

29th Aug 2024 Standard 0m 4f 214y Class 2 |

2021 winner of this race (one of seven wins here) and he was beaten only 1l into fifth 12 months ago; latest fourth of 11 in a 5f handicap here last month needs bettering and there is other pace to deal with. |

Won on reappearance at Yarmouth in April and now 4lb lower; however, his subsequent form has been patchy and he needs to raise his game in first-time cheekpieces. |

6th 7 (8) |
17th Aug 2024 Good 0m 5f 34y Class 3 |

26th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
All wins at 5f, one of them here at last year's Dante meeting, and he's on the same mark as when making a successful return at Yarmouth in April (5f, good to firm); best produced late off a strong pace at 5f though and his 6f form is unconvincing. |

8st 10lb |
Has improved with each of his three runs this season and was a close third of 18 off this mark at York (5f, good to firm) last time, when denied a clear run; also effective on soft ground; could play another leading role. |

3rd 17 (3) |
27th Jul 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
10st 9lb |
Just 1-15 on the Flat but he's well handicapped on last year's best and his latest run over C&D saw him travel powerfully and run with more credit than the bare figures might indicate; should get the end-to-end gallop he needs at 5f; one to consider. |

C&D winner (soft) who scored at Nottingham (5f, good) in July and was runner-up at Wolverhampton (6f, AW) on August 1; drops back down in grade having contested Class 2s the last twice but others have more compelling claims judged on recent evidence. |

21st Aug 2024 Good To Firm 0m 5f 89y Class 2 |

3yo who made it three wins for the year when making all at Hamilton (5f, heavy) a fortnight ago; the other wins came on good going; however, she's up in the weights and in grade today, and her form can be up and down. |

Free-going filly who has raced exclusively over 5f, winning three times, most recently in selling handicap at Hamilton in June; couple of poor efforts since; not crying out for this new trip and can be opposed. |
