23rd Jun 2026 Good 3m 2f 105y Class 4 |
11st 12lb |
Six-time Flat winner; opened account over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good; refitted cheekpieces) last month, after a break, and ran at least as well when close/clear second over that C&D three weeks later; can make presence felt again over this longer trip. |

Multiple Flat winner who was contesting only his second handicap over hurdles when winning with the front two clear over C&D (good) three weeks ago; a 6lb rise isn't the end of the world by any means. |

Second hurdle win for this yard when taking a mares' handicap at Stratford (2m3f, good) last July but very disappointing in her last two runs after lengthy breaks; makes chase debut and she was second in a point. |

26th Jul 2026 2m 3f 207y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Led on the post in a good-ground Perth bumper in April, after a long layoff; comparable form since over hurdles at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft) and Worcester (2m, good); could do with more fluency over the hurdles but this longer trip should help on handicap debut. |

11th Jun 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Led on post to win good-ground Perth bumper in April, after a long layoff, and wasn't discredited when well-held second over hurdles at Ffos Las (2m, good to soft; winner had useful bumper form) last month; probably won't be far away. |

Has worked her way back to peak form, following a break, and scored by just over 4l over C&D (good) six weeks ago; 5lb higher now but ought to make her presence felt again. |

Dual 2m3f winner on good ground; decent effort when third of seven finishers at Market Rasen (2m4f, good) 16 days ago but is still 4lb above her last winning mark and needs some respite from the handicapper. |

Won maiden hurdle here (2m7f, good) in September but has lost her way since, and was tailed off on recent chasing debut; might be aided by the refitted tongue-tie but it takes a big leap of faith to support her. |

11st 4lb |
Appreciated the step back up to 3m when winning at Warwick (good) in May but he was a well-held fourth when favourite at Worcester (2m7f) last month; has bit to prove again after that and this is competitive. |

6th Jun 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Showed the benefit of April's reappearance when back up to a more suitable stamina test off a reduced mark and winning at Warwick (3m, good) the following month; back up 3lb but Freddie Keighley can claim his full allowance; a big player if repeating the effort. |

Won three times under Sean Bowen (once over C&D) in 2025; well below best on all four appearances this year but has slipped to a good mark and the champion jockey evidently still has faith in him; revival possible. |

Won three times (2m2f-3m) in June-September last year, off today's mark over C&D on last occasion; out of form on last four outings, however, and a major revival is needed on this second start after wind surgery; tongue-tie (last used in 2024) returns. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 4 |

Consistent either side of two wins at about 2m4f last December (good to soft and heavy) but there's nothing eyecatching about his mark now and he needs to find extra for the new trip. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |
11st 13lb |
Has struggled to recapture his earlier promise since returning from almost a year off in March and has made little impact in two handicap starts this summer, most recently when pulled up over C&D three weeks ago; may be capable of better but first-time blinkers need to prove a positive addition. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

Fair maiden hurdler; failed to kick on sent handicapping when only fifth of seven at Uttoxeter (2m7f) in May; remains with few miles on the clock, though, so not written off. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good 2m 7f 0y Class 5 |

French claiming hurdle winner on debut in April 2024 and opened his British account under a typically strong Sean Bowen ride over 2m4f here in May; pulled up next time but quickly back on track when runner-up here (2m4f) 12 days ago; Sean Bowen returns and he's a leading contender if seeing out this longer trip. |

Won off 10lb higher at Huntingdon (2m3f, good) last May but he's been disappointing since and was beaten 10l back on the Flat (1m6f) two weeks ago; has lots to prove and this is his first run beyond 2m5f. |

28th Mar 2026 Good 2m 6f 7y Class 5 |

Fourth in a maiden at Worcester last July but he's struggled in three handicaps since; Flat bred and this is a radically new trip, after all previous starts over about 2m, but he rallied well in that Worcester race; could be interesting if strong in the market. |

October Hill, Final Entry
Verdict
Plenty hold each-way chances but MANCERO may be the one to latch on to again, after this C&D on his latest start turned out to suit him so well. He’s 2-2 under Sean Bowen. Topweight Cinnodin is feared most, assuming that the difficulty he had when spreading a plate explains the disappointment last time. The Great Escape staged the great revival last time and will be bang there if he backs up that C&D effort.[Richard Austen]
