1	10 1st (10) (2/1 +67%) Dubeyeracingcraic		2 2/1(+67%)																															(10) Dubeyeracingcraic 2/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. 17/2, third of 8 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 8 days ago. Should progress. In the mix. Rated 68 after three Flat runs, remote third behind two market leaders on hurdling debut.
2	3 2nd (3) (3/1 +14%) Kalanisi Flash		3 3/1(+14%)																															(3) Kalanisi Flash 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable third of 8 in bumper (10/3) at this course (18.8f, good) 15 days ago. Much respected on his hurdles debut. Twice successful in points, placed twice in bumpers at this venue, makes hurdling debut.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/1 +9%) Fathom Two		5 5/1(+9%)																															(1) Fathom Two 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 11 in bumper (9/2) at Limerick (19f, soft) 32 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Not ruled out for good yard. Point winner, touched off by a 150-1 chance in a bumper here last month, unplaced since.
4	9 4th (9) (3.5/1 -27%) Signora Di Milano		3.5 3.5/1(-27%)																															(9) Signora Di Milano 3.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 22/1, first run since leaving William Durkan when second of 11 in novice hurdle at this course (17.3f, good) 15 days ago. The form choice. Made an encouraging stable debut in the race in which the fancied Fortuna Favente flopped.
5th	2 5th (2) (11/1 +31%) Josies Dylan		11 11/1(+31%)																															(2) Josies Dylan 11/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 9 in novice hurdle at this course (21.8f, good, 20/1) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time with more to do. Tailed off on hurdling debut at Galway, remote fourth over a longer trip here last time.
6th	7 6th (7) (200/1 -700%) Bama Breeze		200 200/1(-700%)																															(7) Bama Breeze 200/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Tenth of 11 in novice hurdle (125/1) at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 16 days ago. No sign of ability so far, huge price when tailed off in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 -186%) Fortuna Favente		10 10/1(-186%)																															(8) Fortuna Favente 10/1, Promising sort. 6/4, looked in need of the experience when eighth of 11 in novice hurdle at this course (17.3f, good) on NH debut 15 days ago. Sure to improve and she's one to consider. Well-related mare was let down by her jumping when favourite on recent debut at this venue.
8th	5 8th (5) (33/1 -65%) Truckers Fame		33 33/1(-65%)																															(5) Truckers Fame 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. Twelfth of 16 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Galway (21f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Third point-to-point, has struggled in maiden hurdle outings at Kilbeggan and Galway.
9th	4 9th (4) (40/1 -100%) Kalu Pande		40 40/1(-100%)																															(4) Kalu Pande 40/1, Once-raced maiden. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap (20/1) at Gowran (13.7f, good to soft), hampered. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Pulled up on last hurdle run so has work to do. Second off a low rating in a 2m Dundalk handicap in 2021, poor form otherwise.

LTO Selection:

SIGNORA DI MILANO can open her account on her second start for the Gordon Elliott yard. The five-year-old showed significant improvement on her initial run for the trainer earlier this month when runner-up to a strongly fancied stablemate at this track. Given the way she saw out the race on that occasion, it would be no surprise to see the Milan mare go one better now. Zaghraf shaped well on his hurdling debut at Naas back in March but has since switched trainers and was well beaten on his only subsequent run over flights. A reproduction of that earlier effort would be good enough to see the four-year-old get involved. The well-bred Fortuna Favente was sent off favourite on her racecourse debut here earlier in the month. Although well behind Signora Di Milano then, the Barry Connell-trained mare is almost certainly capable of better.

SIGNORA DI MILANO made a promising start for Gordon Elliott when a recent runner-up here and can go one better now at the chief expense of Fortuna Favente who should have learned plenty from coming home eighth in the same contest and can get much nearer this time. Fathom Two is another to consider starting out over hurdles for Gavin Cromwell.

A vastly improved display when runner-up on her first run for Gordon Elliott suggests that SIGNORA DI MILANO can go one better

1	1 1st (1) (6/1 -33%) Goodeveningmrbond		6 6/1(-33%)																															(1) Goodeveningmrbond 6/1, In first-time tongue strap, made more impact than previously when third of 10 in nursery at Doncaster (6f, heavy, 16/1) 23 days ago. Enters calculations. Made positive nursery debut; drops 1lb and back in trip and looks likely to be involved..
2	7 2nd (7) (1.75/1 +30%) Charlie Mason		1.75 1.75/1(+30%)																															(7) Charlie Mason 1.75/1, Visored for 1st time, did well under circumstances when second of 13 in nursery at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 3/1) 11 days ago, badly hampered soon after start. Can build on his latest effort to go one better. Not much luck in running when improving at Beverley latest; up 2lb; big player..
3	8 3rd (8) (11/1 +8%) Surface To Air		11 11/1(+8%)																															(8) Surface To Air 11/1, With visor reapplied, raced too freely when eighth of 12 in nursery at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 15/2) 11 days ago. Significantly back down in distance but others more persuasive. Well held on his nursery debut at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) latest; more needed..
4	10 4th (10) (20/1 -122%) Birkie Boy		20 20/1(-122%)																															(10) Birkie Boy 20/1, After just 5 days off, not in the same form as previous outing when third of 7 in nursery at Windsor (6f, good 6/1) 2 weeks ago. Needs to get back on the up returned to this shorter trip. Poor form in six starts and well beaten when making the frame latest; much more needed..
5th	2 5th (2) (9/1 -64%) Torvar		9 9/1(-64%)																															(2) Torvar 9/1, Some encouragement when sixth of 9 on nursery debut at Musselburgh (5f, good, 17/2) 34 days ago, forced to switch 1f out. Gelded since and hood now applied. Remains with potential. Gelded, drops 2lb and now hooded, all since last start; may get more competitive..
6th	3 6th (3) (3/1 +63%) Cypriot Diaspora		3 3/1(+63%)																															(3) Cypriot Diaspora 3/1, Failed to progress further when fourth of 13 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good, 11/2) 3 weeks ago. More needed as she makes handicap debut. Initial mark on the stiff side but no surprise if she improves now entering nurseries..
7th	4 7th (4) (7/1 -8%) Moe's Legacy		7 7/1(-8%)																															(4) Moe's Legacy 7/1, Ran to a similar level as previously when fourth of 5 on nursery debut at Newbury (6f, good, 6/1) 10 days ago. Drops in grade with cheekpieces on 1st time. Didn't look the easiest of rides on her recent nursery debut; drops 1lb; more needed..
8th	6 8th (6) (28/1 -40%) Ritzy		28 28/1(-40%)																															(6) Ritzy 28/1, Showed bit more than on first 2 starts when seventh of 12 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 150/1) 15 days ago. Still has work to do on her handicap bow. Initial mark will demand improvement but trainer's runners in good form and not ruled out..
9th	9 9th (9) (33/1 -18%) Proficient		33 33/1(-18%)																															(9) Proficient 33/1, Fared little better than previously when ninth of 12 in minor event at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 50/1) 15 days ago. Needs to leave her previous efforts well behind dropped in trip. Initial mark stiff and she will need improvement to break her duck on this nursery debut..

LTO Selection:

---

This looks a tricky puzzle for punters to solve and only a tentative vote goes to CHARLIE MASON, who has been threatening to score and his one-length second off 2lb lower when dropped to 5f at Beverley last time gives him a big shout in this company. Goodeveningmrbond has been eased 1lb for a promising third over 6f on soft ground at Doncaster, but the shorter trip and quicker ground are a concern, while a sliding mark brings Moe's Legacy into the equation. Torvar wasn't beaten too far off 2lb higher at Musselburgh last month and he is another to consider.

CHARLIE MASON improved in a first-time visor when runner-up at Beverley 11 days ago, despite having suffered early interference, and he can take another step forward to open his account. Goodeveningmrbond also showed more on his latest outing and is respected, with Torvar completing the shortlist.

A weak contest and CHARLIE MASON (nap) is taken to atone for his defeat when having a tricky passage at Beverley last time.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +20%) Marshalled		4 4/1(+20%)																															(1) Marshalled 4/1, Winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland and has revived for new yard lately, winning a handicap chase at Newcastle before nose second of 8 to Ubetya in handicap chase over C&D. Latest effort was sub-par but he's been given a break since. Claims on his narrow C&D defeat two starts ago; possible excuses here latest.
2	7 2nd (7) (6.5/1 +19%) Sword Of Fate		6.5 6.5/1(+19%)																															(7) Sword Of Fate 6.5/1, Front runner who capitalised on a drop in grade when scoring at Perth earlier in the month, This is more competitive but dangerous if he's unhassled in front. Perth winner this month and could prove hard to catch if able to lead.
3	4 3rd (4) (3.5/1 +46%) Lermoos Legend		3.5 3.5/1(+46%)																															(4) Lermoos Legend 3.5/1, Resumed winning ways in 5-runner handicap chase at Worcester (23f, good to soft) in July. Seemingly amiss last time but could bounce back and has tasted success at this track before. 2m7f winner two starts ago but pulled up latest; good course form but unpredictable now.
4	5 4th (5) (5.5/1 +15%) Kellyiscool		5.5 5.5/1(+15%)																															(5) Kellyiscool 5.5/1, Fair maiden hurdler/chaser at his best and, after some uninspiring efforts, he made a positive step when third to Jelski in C&D event last time, Not dismissed, Maiden; should have won over C&D last month but found little.
5th	8 5th (8) (6.5/1 +28%) Sean Og		6.5 6.5/1(+28%)																															(8) Sean Og 6.5/1, Disappointed on chasing debut in May but improved when second over hurdles on final outing for Margaret Mullins. BHA mark doesn't look all that lenient, though, so up against it on stable debut. Just beaten over hurdles latest; well held only chase; stable debut.
6th	3 6th (3) (2.75/1 -10%) Jelski		2.75 2.75/1(-10%)																															(3) Jelski 2.75/1, 5/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap chase at this C&D (heavy) 37 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Looks well capable of landing the hat-trick if the race is run to suit. Two course wins this summer and obvious credentials in the hat-trick bid.

LTO Selection:

---

Jelski has to be respected in his bid for a hat-trick but a 3lb rise for his most recent win will make life tougher for the nine-year-old. With that in mind, preference is for MARSHALLED, who failed to fire last time but is a big player based on his narrow defeat over C&D two starts ago. Others to note are Sword Of Fate and Lermoos Legend.

JELSKI bids for a course hat-trick and, if the pace is strong enough, he's up to completing it. If Sword of Fate is allowed his own way in front he'll be hard to pass and Kellyiscool, who was third to the selection here last time, can't be ruled out.

Topweight MARSHALLED is best forgiven his latest effort here and has decent claims on his previous C&D second.

1	2 1st (2) (12/1 +14%) Power Of Zeus		12 12/1(+14%)																															(2) Power Of Zeus 12/1, Big price and too green to show much when eighth of 12 in novice event at Nottingham (6.1f, good to soft) on debut 18 days ago. Well beaten on debut but did well to finish where he did having been detached at one point.
2	5 2nd (5) (6/1 -167%) Townsend Manor		6 6/1(-167%)																															(5) Townsend Manor 6/1, Continued theme of race-by-race progress when third of 10 in novice event at Windsor (6f, good, 22/1) 30 days ago. Shortlist material. Close third at Windsor on third start and he's a leading candidate.
3	4 3rd (4) (7/1 -8%) There's No Limit		7 7/1(-8%)																															(4) There's No Limit 7/1, Promise on his first 2 starts but unable to continue the good work since, third of 5 switched to a nursery a month ago. Can still be a factor at this level. Form of Newbury third reads well but he needs to bounce back from two lesser performances.
4	9 4th (9) (66/1 -230%) Yiengaa		66 66/1(-230%)																															(9) Yiengaa 66/1, Sixth of 10 in maiden (100/1) at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on debut 12 days ago. Soundly beaten on debut but there's potential in her pedigree & she's a possible improver.
5th	6 5th (6) (3.5/1 +50%) Veiled Illusion		3.5 3.5/1(+50%)																															(6) Veiled Illusion 3.5/1, 8/1, third of 7 in maiden at Catterick (7f, good) on debut 20 days ago, not knocked about. Should progress with that experience under his belt. Didn't settle when third over 7f at Catterick on debut; not ruled out now tackling 6f.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 -65%) Batal Dandy		33 33/1(-65%)																															(7) Batal Dandy 33/1, Twice-raced colt. 20/1, fifth of 10 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago, never nearer. Plenty to find but can be hope he'll improve for this step back up in trip; not discounted.
7th	8 7th (8) (20/1 +0%) This Years Love		20 20/1(+0%)																															(8) This Years Love 20/1, Third of 8 in maiden (18/1) at Pontefract (6f, good) on debut 19 days ago, nearest finish. More to come. Well-beaten third on debut but reared at start; yard's horses tend to improve for the run.
8th	3 8th (3) (150/1 +0%) The Man From Loule		150 150/1(+0%)																															(3) The Man From Loule 150/1, Twice-raced gelding. 100/1, eleventh of 14 in maiden at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Well beaten at big odds this month on first two starts.
9th	1 9th (1) (0.91/1 +27%) Jersey Rocs		0.91 0.91/1(+27%)																															(1) Jersey Rocs 0.91/1, Promising individual. 6/1, second of 9 in novice event at this C&D (good to soft) on debut 20 days ago, slowly away. Should have more to offer with that under his belt and he's bred to be useful. Second over C&D on debut and the winner has franked the form; firmly in calculations.

LTO Selection:

---

JERSEY ROCS showed plenty of promise when second behind a subsequent winner on his racecourse debut here recently and he ought to go very well with the benefit of that experience. The main danger is likely to be Townsend Manor after his Windsor third last month, while Veiled Illusion could find some improvement if he manages to settle better on only his second start.

JERSEY ROCS is bred to be useful, and with above-average improvement from his debut anticipated, he looks the way to go. Townsend Manor and There's No Limit head the opposition.

Having bumped into a useful, experienced winner when runner-up over C&D on his debut, JERSEY ROCS is the pick on his second start.

1	4 1st (4) (7/1 -27%) Crimson Spirit		7 7/1(-27%)																															(4) Crimson Spirit 7/1, Left debut run well behind when fourth of 12 in novice event at Nottingham (6.1f, good to soft) 18 days ago, running on. 7f will suit on that evidence. Respected. Close fourth over 6f last time; may improve further provided he stays 7f.
2	7 2nd (7) (0.73/1 -9%) Get Jiggy With It		0.73 0.73/1(-9%)																															(7) Get Jiggy With It 0.73/1, Matched debut form when third of 13 in maiden at Goodwood (7f, soft) 25 days ago. That is the best form on offer and she's still not the finished article. Placed in 7f fillies' maidens at two major festivals; the clear form pick.
3	2 3rd (2) (6/1 +14%) Magico		6 6/1(+14%)																															(2) Magico 6/1, Tongue strap on but displayed clear ability when fifth of 11 in novice event at Haydock (7f, good to firm) on debut 17 days ago, finishing with running left. Should have more to offer. Shaped with promise at Haydock; possibilities if building on that effort.
4	5 4th (5) (4/1 +33%) Daymer Bay		4 4/1(+33%)																															(5) Daymer Bay 4/1, Took another small step forward when second of 14 in novice event at Doncaster (7f, soft) 37 days ago. Likely to give it another good go. Consistent thus far; good second at Doncaster upped to 7f last time.
5th	3 5th (3) (18/1 -50%) Burdett		18 18/1(-50%)																															(3) Burdett 18/1, Foaled March 24. 49,000 gns foal, 25,000 gns yearling, Inns of Court colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Mytilda. Dam once-raced half-sister to smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner (stayed 1m) Ivawood. 25,000gns yearling; sole newcomer in the field; market instructive.
6th	6 6th (6) (50/1 -257%) Dufresne		50 50/1(-257%)																															(6) Dufresne 50/1, Shaped quite well both starts, sixth of 11 in novice event at Haydock (7f, good to firm, 12/1) 17 days ago. Should progress. Should find handicaps more suitable shortly.
7th	1 7th (1) (50/1 -150%) Jean Ribault		50 50/1(-150%)																															(1) Jean Ribault 50/1, Foaled April 18. Ribchester colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 1¼m-15f winner Atzeco and useful 2-y-o 1m winner Blanchland. Dam unraced. Has a notable pedigree but merely hinted at ability on last month's debut at Ascot. Needs to improve plenty on Ascot effort; hood now applied.

LTO Selection:

---

The form of GET JIGGY WITH IT's recent Goodwood third took a timely boost when the winner went on to finish second in a Group 2 at Deauville next time and she might prove tough to beat if running to a similar level today. Daymer Bay hit the woodwork at Doncaster last month and he should be on the premises along with Crimson Spirit, whose pedigree would suggest he ought to appreciate this step up in trip.

CRIMSON SPIRIT stuck to his task well when fourth over 6f at Nottingham recently and with more to come over 7f he gets the tentative nod in what looks a trappy maiden. Get Jiggy With It brings the best form to the table and gets weight all round so she's an obvious threat, with Magico a potential improver.

Having been placed in maidens at the Newmarket July festival and Glorious Goodwood, GET JIGGY WITH IT brings strong form claims.

Much better effort when seventh of 12 in minor event (14/1) at Nottingham (6.1f, good to soft) 18 days ago, slowly away. Tongue strap on 1st time. Plenty more needed. Down the field in both her runs and has quite a lot to find back in trip; tongue-tie added.
2	1 2nd (1) (2/1 +11%) Miss Mach One		2 2/1(+11%)																															(1) Miss Mach One 2/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Won 12-runner minor event (2/1) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Should go well again even under a penalty. Won under a prominent ride at Windsor and she sets the standard back in trip; big player.

4	2 4th (2) (5/1 -82%) Bint Havana Grey		5 5/1(-82%)																															(2) Bint Havana Grey 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 15/8, 1¾ lengths third of 12 to Miss Mach One in minor event at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Has a bit to find to turn that form around even on better terms. Front-running third behind Miss Mach One at Windsor and she's respected on this drop to 5f.
5th	6 5th (6) (4.5/1 +18%) Reprised		4.5 4.5/1(+18%)																															(6) Reprised 4.5/1, Foaled April 7. Blue Point filly. Dam Italian 2-y-o 5f winner. Not discounted on debut. Out if a useful 5f 2yo winner and she needs watching in market on debut.
6th	8 6th (8) (100/1 +0%) Stoneacre Girl		100 100/1(+0%)																															(8) Stoneacre Girl 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. Last of 9 in minor event (40/1) at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Looks up against it again. Has struggled in both her runs and minor nurseries will be more suitable after this.
7th	5 7th (5) (100/1 -100%) Grid Iron Maiden		100 100/1(-100%)																															(5) Grid Iron Maiden 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. 50/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Hard to make a case for. 50-1 and has been beaten 9l in two maidens (7f/5f) this summer; can only be watched.
8th	3 8th (3) (3.5/1 -5%) Bluebell Grove		3.5 3.5/1(-5%)																															(3) Bluebell Grove 3.5/1, Foaled April 13. 190,000 gns yearling, Blue Point filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including US 5f-7f winner Big Handsome and winner up to 6f Frenetic, both smart. Dam US 6f winner. Of obvious interest on debut. 190,000gns Blue Point filly; plenty to like on paper and she's an interesting newcomer.

LTO Selection:

---

Miss Mach One had BINT HAVANA GREY a length and three quarters back in third when the pair met at Windsor last time, but a 4lb swing in the weights, along with a drop in trip, could see the latter gain her revenge on that rival. Reprised makes plenty of appeal on paper and the Blue Point filly is worth a market check ahead of her racecourse bow, as is Bluebell Grove, who could be well berthed in stall eight.

BLUEBELL GROVE looks of obvious interest on debut, being a six-figure daughter of Blue Point and a half-sister to 2 smart sprint winners. Miss Mach One is the form pick even under a penalty having had Bint Havana Grey back in third at Windsor.

Preference is for MISS MACH ONE, who justified support in good style at Windsor 15 days ago and sets the standard under a penalty.

2	1 2nd (1) (2.75/1 +21%) Gwan Tadhg		2.75 2.75/1(+21%)																															(1) Gwan Tadhg 2.75/1, 7/1, career best when winning 13-runner handicap hurdle at this course (17.3f, good) on return 15 days ago, driven out. Can go well again. Recent C&D winner on first run since January, likely to be involved again despite 7lb rise.
3	4 3rd (4) (12/1 -33%) Tea It Is		12 12/1(-33%)																															(4) Tea It Is 12/1, 11/1, creditable sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (20f, good) 39 days ago. Others more persuasive. Made a bright start to life in handicaps when third at Sligo, not as good at Killarney.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 -100%) Breagagh		12 12/1(-100%)																															(3) Breagagh 12/1, Very good second of 18 in handicap (12/1) at Naas (8f, soft) 33 days ago. Creditable on last hurdle run. Expected to be bang there. Has had plenty of opportunities, fair form over hurdles and on Flat recently, place chance.
5th	7 5th (7) (50/1 -100%) Leading Flame		50 50/1(-100%)																															(7) Leading Flame 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Off 6 months. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Poor maiden hurdle form after fair debut, transformation needed on handicap/seasonal debut.
6th	13 6th (13) (16/1 -129%) Charle Brune		16 16/1(-129%)																															(13) Charle Brune 16/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2019. 17/2, first run since leaving Neil Mechie when creditable fifth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Two wins in 2019, good return at Ballinrobe after a spell in Britain.
7th	12 7th (12) (16/1 +36%) Greatmindstinkalik		16 16/1(+36%)																															(12) Greatmindstinkalik 16/1, 25/1, sixth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (23.8f, heavy). Off 7 months. Down in trip. Hood on 1st time. Absent since a remote sixth at Fairyhouse in January, nothing to suggest she can feature.
8th	10 8th (10) (18/1 -13%) Georgie's Gal		18 18/1(-13%)																															(10) Georgie's Gal 18/1, Creditable sixth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Cork (18.7f, good to soft, 20/1) 21 days ago. Not taken lightly. Has shown enough in her first two handicaps to suggest she could go close in this company.
9th	2 9th (2) (9/1 -125%) Blackberry Jack		9 9/1(-125%)																															(2) Blackberry Jack 9/1, 11/2, creditable second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. In good form on the Flat last summer, definite chance after recent second at Kilbeggan.
6	6 |U| (6) (80/1 -220%) Across The Ocean		80 80/1(-220%)																															(6) Across The Ocean 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1, fell heavily in handicap hurdle at this course (21.8f, good) 15 days ago. Posed no threat when falling three out on handicap debut here, 50-1 then, hard to fancy.
10th	14 10th (14) (50/1 -150%) Wee Jerry		50 50/1(-150%)																															(14) Wee Jerry 50/1, Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs. Last of 9 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Worcester (16f, good to soft) 39 days ago. Unplaced on all 14 starts over hurdles, has struggled on last three starts in Britain.
11th	8 11th (8) (20/1 -43%) Grizabella		20 20/1(-43%)																															(8) Grizabella 20/1, 16/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Tramore (12f, good to soft) 48 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Won a claimer on the Flat and has managed a couple of fourth placings in handicap hurdles.

GWAN TADHG should be difficult to beat as he bids to follow up a recent course and distance success. The Edward O'Grady-trained six-year-old travelled noticeably easily throughout that contest, looking a winner at every stage. Although subsequently handed a 7lb rise, his proven ability to act on this unique track is a big positive. Blackberry Jack arrives here in better form than most having filled the runner-up spot at Kilbeggan on his most recent outing. Trainer Denis Leahy, who makes the long trip up from County Cork with the six-year-old, will be hoping to return home with the main prize. Charle Bruno, who shaped encouragingly on his first start back with former connections last time, is another who can get competitive.

GWAN TADHG is a rare one here in that he brings winning form to the table and he's fancied to strike again. Breagagh is feared most ahead of Anyway and the potentially very interesting Karloss.

Recent C&D winner Gwan Tadhg could go close off 7lb higher but may not cope with recent Kilbeggan runner-up BLACKBERRY JACK

1	13 1st (13) (5/1 +17%) Emirates Angel		5 5/1(+17%)																															(13) Emirates Angel 5/1, Stepped forward from debut when third of 12 in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good to soft, 13/2) 9 days ago, staying on again close home. Merits consideration upped in distance. Third at Bath but the winner went into that 0-4 and the time wasn't great.
2	10 2nd (10) (1.25/1 +44%) Secret Bid		1.25 1.25/1(+44%)																															(10) Secret Bid 1.25/1, Related to several winners and made a promising debut when fourth of 10 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 4/1) 2 weeks ago. Entitled to progress and he's a leading contender. Raced prominently before going down narrowly in a bunch finish over this trip at Kempton.
3	9 3rd (9) (3.33/1 +11%) Miguel		3.33 3.33/1(+11%)																															(9) Miguel 3.33/1, Made an encouraging start amidst greenness when second of 11 in maiden at this course (6.1f, good to soft, 11/2) 31 days ago. Can make his presence felt with this step up in trip to suit. Found 6f on the sharp side here a month ago (good/soft) but kept on well to finish second.

Half-brother to 1m-1¼m winner Calidus Mirabilis and winner up to 7f Escher. Yard's first 2-y-o runner of the year. 6,500gns yearling; related to winners but already gelded and best watched.
6th	11 6th (11) (150/1 -50%) Weston Court		150 150/1(-50%)																															(11) Weston Court 150/1, Has finished well held both outings, looking a hard ride when ninth of 10 in maiden at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy, 200/1) 20 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Tailed off over similar distances at Leicester (good to firm) and Ffos Las (soft).
7th	8 7th (8) (18/1 -50%) Leguizamo		18 18/1(-50%)																															(8) Leguizamo 18/1, Foaled February 6. Churchill gelding. Dam 6.7f/7f winner who stayed 1m. Watch for market clues. One to note in the betting with the stable 5-21 with 2yos on turf this season.
8th	15 8th (15) (12/1 +0%) Thunderous Love		12 12/1(+0%)																															(15) Thunderous Love 12/1, Some encouragement when fifth of 11 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 14/1) on debut 2 weeks ago, keeping on when hampered inside final 1f. Open to improvement. Under pressure when short of room at Kempton (7f) but was only 3l away.
9th	5 9th (5) (50/1 -150%) Havana Sky		50 50/1(-150%)																															(5) Havana Sky 50/1, Still in need of experience when eighth of 10 in minor event at Newmarket (7f, good, 40/1) 10 days ago. Looks one for further down the line. Midfield first time at Newcastle and then eighth of ten at Newmarket; needs to step up.
10th	2 10th (2) (6/1 +14%) Compton Bay		6 6/1(+14%)																															(2) Compton Bay 6/1, Showed ability when fourth of 6 in maiden at Epsom (7f, good, 4/1) on debut 54 days ago. Hood on 1st time and he may well do better. Ability when fourth of six at Epsom 54 days ago and could improve for the hood.
11th	4 11th (4) (18/1 +10%) Ginormous		18 18/1(+10%)																															(4) Ginormous 18/1, Foaled February 26. 14,000 gns yearling, Bungle Inthejungle gelding. Dam, unraced, closely related to smart winner up to 1m Happy Power. Trainer capable of readying a newcomer. 14,000gns yearling; unraced dam closely related to 7f Group 2 winner Happy Power.
12th	1 12th (1) (250/1 -150%) Cable Strike		250 250/1(-150%)																															(1) Cable Strike 250/1, Has shown little in 2 starts so far, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good to soft, 200/1) 9 days ago. Up in trip with cheekpieces on for 1st time. Down the field in both runs and one for another day; tries cheekpieces.
13th	7 13th (7) (28/1 -100%) History Awaits		28 28/1(-100%)																															(7) History Awaits 28/1, Shaped as if better for run when seventh of 10 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 17/2) on debut 14 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Bred for more stamina than speed. Only 17-2 at Kempton (7f AW) but couldn't pick up from a midfield position.

Secret Bid travelled well when beaten just three-quarters of a length into fourth over this trip at Kempton on debut and he should go close, but slight preference is for MIGUEL. Jack Channon's colt stayed on very well for second once the penny dropped over 6f here last month and, expected to relish this extra furlong, he can show the benefit of that experience to go one better. Compton Bay hinted at ability on his introduction at Epsom, while Duely Spiced has filled the runner-up spot on both starts to date and she's worth a second look.

SECRET BID showed plenty of ability when fourth at Kempton a fortnight ago and he can build on that experience to score at the second time of asking. Archie Watson's colt can see off the challenge of Miguel, who made an encouraging start when runner-up at this course last month, while Emirates Angel is another to consider upped in trip.

Jack Channon's MIGUEL might be the answer after running well here on his debut over shorter behind one who has since followed up.

1	1 1st (1) (1.88/1 +0%) Gifted Angel		1.88 1.88/1(+0%)																															(1) Gifted Angel 1.88/1, Fair maiden on the Flat who got off the mark at only the second attempt in this sphere in 2m Stratford juvenile earlier in the month. Inexperience still evident switched to a handicap at Bangor last week, too free and also making mistakes. Cheekpieces removed. Well held in a handicap latest but earlier juvenile win points to his chance.
2	8 2nd (8) (3.33/1 -67%) Majestic Jameela		3.33 3.33/1(-67%)																															(8) Majestic Jameela 3.33/1, Modest performer on Flat but well supported when good second of 8 in Aintree juvenile (16.5f) on hurdles debut in June. Sets the standard on that run though was disappointing at Uttoxeter latest. Placed in both hurdle starts; should be on the premises again.
3	2 3rd (2) (2/1 +43%) Balboa		2 2/1(+43%)																															(2) Balboa 2/1, Fair maiden on the Flat, making jumps debut. First run since leaving Jamie Osborne when sixth of 8 in handicap at Sandown (14f, heavy) 26 days ago. Hood fitted and stamina no concern in this discipline. Showed enough on the Flat to make him of interest on hurdle debut; hood fitted.
4	4 4th (4) (7.5/1 -25%) Cofficionado		7.5 7.5/1(-25%)																															(4) Cofficionado 7.5/1, Well held in Haydock maiden on sole start on Flat 11 months ago. Makes hurdles debut and sure to be well prepared for this. Well beaten only outing on the Flat; hurdle debut.
3	3 |PU| (3) (12/1 +14%) Beauty Blaze		12 12/1(+14%)																															(3) Beauty Blaze 12/1, Half-brother to numerous winners on Flat, including very smart winner up to 1¼m Magic Artist (by Iffraaj). Dam unraced. Debut in any code. Good pedigree but no Flat runs; racecourse debut.
7	7 |PU| (7) (66/1 -100%) Carmentis		66 66/1(-100%)																															(7) Carmentis 66/1, Little worthwhile form in 7 attempts on level (between 5f-8f) and didn't show much on recent hurdles bow. Unplaced on the Flat and tailed off on hurdle debut last month.
5	5 |PU| (5) (150/1 -355%) Imenso		150 150/1(-355%)																															(5) Imenso 150/1, Modest form at best on Flat, unproven beyond sprint trips, well held upped in trip in handicaps both starts in 2023. Stamina an obvious concern in this sphere. Finished last in both Flat attempts this year; hurdle debut.

LTO Selection:

Gifted Angel merits respect under a penalty for his recent Stratford success, but MAJESTIC JAMEELA, who receives 14lb from the former, is preferred. Stuart Edmunds' filly has run with credit on both of her starts over timber and any further improvement could see the daughter of Postponed get off the mark. Hooded ahead of his hurdling debut, market support would have to bring Balboa into the reckoning.

BALBOA achieved fair form on the level, and with stamina no issue switched to hurdles, he's selected to get the better of a couple with experience over timber in Majestic Jameela and Gifted Angel

The return to juvenile company can see GIFTED ANGEL gain a second win.

1	5 1st (5) (0.4/1 +35%) Exposed		0.4 0.4/1(+35%)																															(5) Exposed 0.4/1, Second of 8 in novice event (9/4) at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm), no match for winner. Up in trip for first start in 14 months but this isn't a deep race and she's in top hands. Showed ability in 2yo campaign; absent since but in top hands and leading form claims.
2	6 2nd (6) (2.25/1 -105%) Sindri		2.25 2.25/1(-105%)																															(6) Sindri 2.25/1, Promising sort. 7/2, third of 6 in maiden at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Should improve and she's an obvious player. Fair efforts on both starts and has been found a weak race; leading candidate.
3	3 3rd (3) (25/1 +62%) Lukla		25 25/1(+62%)																															(3) Lukla 25/1, Modest gelding. Remains a maiden after 11 Flat runs. Good second of 6 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, good to soft, 14/1) 31 days ago, no match for winner. Up in trip. Second in selling handicap at Thirsk latest but now 0-11 and probably vulnerable once more.
4	1 4th (1) (50/1 +24%) Fly Awhile Johnny		50 50/1(+24%)																															(1) Fly Awhile Johnny 50/1, First run since leaving Jack Teal (mid-field in a bumper) when seventh of 8 in novice event at Catterick (12.1f, good, 200/1) on Flat debut 7 days ago, slowly away. Second in point-to-point in March but down the field at 200-1 on recent Flat/stable debut.
5th	4 5th (4) (40/1 +60%) Zandora		40 40/1(+60%)																															(4) Zandora 40/1, Poor filly. Remains a maiden after 10 Flat runs.

Step back in right direction in this hood last time but now 0-10 and others are preferred.
6th	2 6th (2) (25/1 +38%) J C International		25 25/1(+38%)																															(2) J C International 25/1, Sent off 200/1 but showed a bit more than on Flat debut when sixth of 8 in novice event at Catterick (12.1f, good) 7 days ago. Well beaten in both bumpers and has made no impact on his two Flat starts.

LTO Selection:

---

It's hard to get away from EXPOSED, who represents the in-form William Haggas yard and she sets the standard for the others to aim at with a rating of 73. The three-year-old has hit the crossbar the last twice and she could improve for the step up in trip, which makes her difficult to oppose. Sindri can give the selection the most to think about after her respectable third at Yarmouth, while Lukla looks best of the rest.

This looks a match between SINDRI and Exposed with marginal preference for the Michael Bell filly given she has a fitness edge and remains open to progress.

This should be between the two 3yo fillies. EXPOSED has been absent since last July but showed promise last season and is in top hands.

1	3 1st (3) (7/1 -27%) Sir Winston		7 7/1(-27%)																															(3) Sir Winston 7/1, Took his form to another level when scoring in good style at Brighton in June. Only seventh of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago but the sort to bounce back. Should take well to Epsom, having gained both wins at Brighton; interesting contender.
2	4 2nd (4) (4.5/1 +18%) G'Daay		4.5 4.5/1(+18%)																															(4) G'Daay 4.5/1, Four-time winner last year who got off the mark for 2023 over C&D last month. Posted a fair third in the mud at Chester last time so he should give another good account. Back in better form since wearing visor, notably winning over C&D two starts ago.
3	1 3rd (1) (3.33/1 -48%) Wild Lion		3.33 3.33/1(-48%)																															(1) Wild Lion 3.33/1, Lightly-raced 5-y-o who confirmed himself equally as effective on turf as AW when landing 7f York handicap in June. Posted a good fourth of 11 there following month so he has to be of interest again after a break. Useful form at York since wearing cheekpieces, winning gamely over 7f then fourth over 1m.
4	6 4th (6) (4.5/1 +18%) Marlay Park		4.5 4.5/1(+18%)																															(6) Marlay Park 4.5/1, Three-time C&D winner who comes here in good nick, fourth of 9 in handicap back over C&D (good) 54 days ago. Merits consideration eased 1 lb. Sound record at Epsom includes three wins; made the frame here the last twice.
5th	2 5th (2) (8/1 -60%) Chartwell House		8 8/1(-60%)																															(2) Chartwell House 8/1, Scored at Haydock in June and not disgraced when seventh of 13 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 11 days ago. This C&D winner needs considering. Scored on this card last year; has some good 7f form this season; held over 1m last time.
6th	5 6th (5) (2.5/1 +29%) New Business		2.5 2.5/1(+29%)																															(5) New Business 2.5/1, Progressive sort who got off the mark in 7f novice at Kempton in June. Very good fourth (given he raced keenly) on his handicap debut at Sandown (7f, good) since. Type to go on improving, especially if he settles better. Player. Respectable fourth at Sandown on handicap debut; unexposed 3yo who warrants respect.

LTO Selection:

---

WILD LION posted a solid fourth off this mark in a warm 0-105 handicap at York last month and The Last Lion gelding looks well capable in these calmer waters, despite having to saddle the burden of top-weight. The unexposed New Business, who was far from disgraced on his handicap bow 51 days ago, can make his presence felt from a 1lb lower mark. G'daay is fancied to chase the pair home ahead of Chartwell House.

None of these can be ruled out but the vote goes to NEW BUSINESS who did well to come home fourth on his handicap debut at Sandown given he went freely and can continue on the up to resume winning ways. Both Marlay Park (second choice) and Chartwell House arrive in good nick and have winning C&D form so could emerge as the chief threats in a competitive handicap.

Returned to an ideal-looking scenario, SIR WINSTON remains open to further improvement. Chartwell House is second choice.

1	8 1st (8) (1.38/1 +59%) Rodborough		1.38 1.38/1(+59%)																															(8) Rodborough 1.38/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (14/1) 8 days ago. Remains relatively unexposed at this trip and she's a big player under a penalty. Clearcut winner here last week; big shout under penalty if as good again.
2	1 2nd (1) (5.5/1 +8%) Birkenhead		5.5 5.5/1(+8%)																															(1) Birkenhead 5.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Creditable second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 25/1) 10 days ago, conceding first run. Likely to be on the premises once again. C&D winner in May off only 2lb higher and latest Wolverhampton effort bodes well.

Others preferred for win purposes. All four of his wins have come over 5f on the AW at Lingfield; had 67 days off.
4	10 4th (10) (9/1 -50%) Mehmo		9 9/1(-50%)																															(10) Mehmo 9/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year, the latest at Beverley in July. Respectable 3 lengths third of 11 to Rodborough in handicap at this C&D (5/2) 8 days ago. 6 lb better off with that rival this time. Dual C&D winner but couldn't keep tabs on Rodborough when a 3l third here last week.
5th	4 5th (4) (7.5/1 -36%) Storm Fox		7.5 7.5/1(-36%)																															(4) Storm Fox 7.5/1, Winner at Thirsk in June. 10/3, third of 5 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and shouldn't be far away if she takes to this surface. Yard also saddles Lola's Moment. Having first run on the AW but consistent on turf and was close up at Ripon latest.
6th	12 6th (12) (12/1 -85%) Cuban Grey		12 12/1(-85%)																															(12) Cuban Grey 12/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap (9/2) at Chelmsford City (5f) 13 days ago, worst of draw. In decent form prior to that and he's not discounted. Has threatened in handicaps and raced wide last time at Chelmsford.
7th	11 7th (11) (28/1 +15%) Storm Venture		28 28/1(+15%)																															(11) Storm Venture 28/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 12/1) 12 days ago. Hard to warm to judged on what he's shown this year. Placed in a couple of nurseries last autumn but disappointing this season.
8th	14 8th (14) (33/1 -175%) Lola's Moment		33 33/1(-175%)																															(14) Lola's Moment 33/1, 22/1, very good second of 8 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good) 20 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and place possibilities if she takes to this surface. Exposed maiden but has dropped down the weights and ran well at Catterick.
9th	5 9th (5) (28/1 -180%) Golden Rainbow		28 28/1(-180%)																															(5) Golden Rainbow 28/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 10/3) 13 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Mark is on the slide but he will probably find a few too good all the same. Close up at Wetherby in May and latest run (after 91 days off) wasn't him.
10th	9 10th (9) (33/1 -500%) Glorious Charmer		33 33/1(-500%)																															(9) Glorious Charmer 33/1, Three wins from 7 runs this year, the latest at Wolverhampton in March. 9/2, fourth of 5 in handicap at that course (5.1f). Off 145 days but will be a danger to all if fully tuned-up. Best at Wolverhampton; returns from a break at a venue he's yet to win at (0-7).
11th	3 11th (3) (66/1 -32%) Our Delia		66 66/1(-32%)																															(3) Our Delia 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, heavy, 50/1) 23 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Runner-up in a 6f maiden on Tapeta but that's her standout effort.
12th	7 12th (7) (25/1 -56%) Doctor Mozart		25 25/1(-56%)																															(7) Doctor Mozart 25/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 14 runs this year. Latest win at Lingfield in June. Fourth of 7 in claimer at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 12/1) 14 days ago. Improvement needed on debut for new yard. C&D winner on a competitive mark and having first run for new yard after being claimed.
13th	13 13th (13) (66/1 -164%) Dalglish		66 66/1(-164%)																															(13) Dalglish 66/1, 12/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (5f), unsuited by drop in trip. 15-month absence to overcome and this 11-race maiden looks vulnerable kept to this trip. 11-race maiden with ability but difficult to know what to expect after so long out.
14th	6 14th (6) (10/1 +17%) Azucena		10 10/1(+17%)																															(6) Azucena 10/1, Third of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 25/1) 13 days ago. 1 lb lower here and not without each-way hope. Newcastle winner over this trip and best race of this season when a close third latest.

RODBOROUGH was a commanding winner over track and trip eight days ago and the lightly-raced son of Mayson could double his tally under a 6lb penalty. Birkenhead, who was narrowly denied at Wolverhampton last time, can make his presence felt, along with Storm Fox. Mehmo finished third behind the selection in that same contest and a swing in the weights could see him close the gap.

Equipped with first-time cheekpieces and ridden more positively, RODBOROUGH looked a different proposition when scoring over this C&D recently and, with the possibility of more to come from her over this trip, she is taken to follow up under a penalty. Mehmo was beaten 3 lengths into third by the selection that day and, now 6 lb better off, it would be no surprise if he finishes closer this time. Glorious Charmer and Cuban Grey are also likely to be on the premises.

The 3yo RODBOROUGH looked a lot more with it in the cheekpieces when making all here last week and can defy a penalty.

1	1 1st (1) (0.53/1 +47%) Reverend Hubert		0.53 0.53/1(+47%)																															(1) Reverend Hubert 0.53/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Promising type. Third of 12 in novice hurdle at Tramore (21.4f, good to soft, 11/2) 8 days ago. Sets a high standard with promise of more to come. Useful on the Flat in Britain; two good efforts over hurdles including over this trip.
2	7 2nd (7) (4.5/1 -29%) Ringdufferin		4.5 4.5/1(-29%)																															(7) Ringdufferin 4.5/1, Fair hurdler. 6/1, respectable fourth of 16 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (19.8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Fourth in a pair of maidens and rated 106; definite place claims but will struggle to win.
3	6 3rd (6) (2.25/1 -20%) Marv Michael		2.25 2.25/1(-20%)																															(6) Marv Michael 2.25/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 13/8 and tongue strap on for first time, second of 13 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (20.4f, good) 87 days ago, collared very close home. Must for the shortlist. Point winner was caught close home on second hurdles start at Down Royal (2m4f) in June.
4	9 4th (9) (66/1 -32%) Knockaneleigh Girl		66 66/1(-32%)																															(9) Knockaneleigh Girl 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 28/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 14 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16f, heavy) 10 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Runner-up in a point; well held on first two starts over hurdles.
5th	3 5th (3) (50/1 -52%) Farewellchancer		50 50/1(-52%)																															(3) Farewellchancer 50/1, Sixth of 14 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft, 100/1) 16 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Open to progress. Bit better when sixth at Kilbeggan but still beaten 26l; unlikely to contend.
6th	4 6th (4) (150/1 -200%) Hardy Buck		150 150/1(-200%)																															(4) Hardy Buck 150/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. 200/1, last of 16 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (19.8f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 20 days ago, going in snatches. Fourth in a couple of points; heavy defeats in a bumper and on hurdles bow at Roscommon.
7th	8 7th (8) (50/1 -25%) Rust To Riches		50 50/1(-25%)																															(8) Rust To Riches 50/1, Poor hurdler. Pulled up in handicap chase at Stratford (27.5f, good, 25/1) 4 days ago, losing touch from 5 out. Switches from chase to hurdles. Back down in trip. Point winner in May; poor form over fences since; beaten 32l in C&D maiden on hurdles bow.
8th	5 8th (5) (80/1 -60%) Knocky		80 80/1(-60%)																															(5) Knocky 80/1, Dual-point winner. Eighth of 11 in novice hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good to soft, 100/1) 27 days ago. Uphill task. Dual winning pointer was 100-1 when beaten 46l on hurdles debut at Perth earlier in month.
9th	2 9th (2) (33/1 -50%) Meadow Soprano		33 33/1(-50%)																															(2) Meadow Soprano 33/1, 18/1, first run since leaving Bettina Andersen when seventh of 11 in novice hurdle at this course (17.3f, good) on NH debut 15 days ago. Up in trip. Dual Flat winner in Denmark; not shamed when beaten a dozen lengths here on hurdling debut.

LTO Selection:

REVEREND HUBERT can get off the mark over flights on just his third start for the Charles Byrnes yard. A smart handicapper on the level when trained in Britain, the five-year-old made a promising Irish debut when runner-up at Roscommon at the beginning of this month. Although unable to improve on that form when only third at Tramore last time, he may not have appreciated the tight track. With more of an emphasis on stamina here, his staying prowess should come to the fore. Marv Michael was a beaten favourite at Down Royal last time, only getting run out of it close home. The Henry De Bromhead-trained gelding receives a valuable 8lb from Reverend Hubert. Ringdufferin, who has an official rating of 106 over hurdles, should also be capable of playing a role in the finish.

There should be plenty more to come from REVEREND HUBERT based on his Flat ability and this looks a great chance for him to open his account at the third attempt. Marv Michael and Ringdufferin are the obvious threats.

Useful Flat stayer Reverend Hubert has run well in two maiden hurdles this month after a year's absence and can outstay Marv Michael

3	3 (3) (9/1 -20%) Ithra		9 9/1(-20%)																															(3) Ithra 9/1, In first-time cheekpieces, last of 3 on handicap debut at Ffos Las (7.4f, soft, 9/1) 12 days ago, left behind approaching final 1f. However, could fare better back in novice company. Last in a three-runner nursery at Ffos Las (7.5f, soft) recently; drops 2lb; more needed..
1	4 1st (4) (0.18/1 +82%) Mexicali Rose		0.18 0.18/1(+82%)																															(4) Mexicali Rose 0.18/1, Finished with running left when third of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW, 4/9) 79 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. Remains open to progress and can open her account this time around. Back from a break with trainer's runners in form and has best form in field; big player..
2	6 2nd (6) (28/1 -12%) Hawk Jet		28 28/1(-12%)																															(6) Hawk Jet 28/1, Ran to similar level as on debut when third of 6 in minor event at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy, 80/1) 25 days ago. Needs to step forward on what she's shown so far as she drops in trip. Has shown minor ability in two starts at around 1m but much more needed to get involved..
3	7 3rd (7) (50/1 -150%) Perovskia		50 50/1(-150%)																															(7) Perovskia 50/1, Never dangerous when fourth of 7 in minor event at Wetherby (7f, good to firm, 12/1) in May on debut. Likely to do better in time. Didn't show a huge amount on debut in a Wetherby novice event in May; much more needed..
4	1 4th (1) (6/1 -71%) Concon Candy		6 6/1(-71%)																															(1) Concon Candy 6/1, Improved from debut when third of 12 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f, 11/2) in April. Cheekpieces on 1st time and she could still have more to offer after a break. Promising filly; returns from a break for her turf debut in cheekpieces; player..

LTO Selection:

---

Concon Candy has displayed ability when making the frame at Wolverhampton and Chelmsford, but preference is for the proven turf form of MEXICALI ROSE. Ralph Beckett's filly began the season with second-placed finishes at Leicester and Nottingham, before a half-length third off this mark at Lingfield when last seen in June and she sets the standard in this company. Ithra looks best of the rest.

MEXICALI ROSE was unsuited by the emphasis on speed at Lingfield last time, but she had previously shaped well on handicap debut and is taken to resume her progress to get off the mark. Concon Candy is open to further improvement on only her third start and looks to be the main danger, with Ithra the pick of the remainder.

This looks best left to MEXICALI ROSE, who has the best form in the field and is taken to break her duck for a stable in good form.

9	9 (9) (16/1 +0%) Coup De Gold		16 16/1(+0%)																															(9) Coup De Gold 16/1, Poor strike rate (1-29 in this sphere) and while he put in a good shift when fourth of 10 at Hexham (16.2f, good) last time, chances are he will again find one or two too good. Has been running creditably but just 1-56 in career.
1	10 1st (10) (3.33/1 +79%) Secret Secret		3.33 3.33/1(+79%)																															(10) Secret Secret 3.33/1, Easy winner on the Flat in Ireland last autumn but turned over at short prices on each of his 3 starts in this sphere for Neil Mulholland. Opposable on debut for another new yard. Not a great deal to recommend apart from fact he's making stable debut.
2	7 2nd (7) (1.5/1 +55%) My Gift To You		1.5 1.5/1(+55%)																															(7) My Gift To You 1.5/1, Form has taken off since leaving Paul Webber, readily landing a handicap hurdle at Southwell before following up in equally impressive fashion over fences at Worcester (both wins at around 2½m on good ground). Major player with further improvement on the cards. Two easy wins since joining this yard; 10lb higher but could still be well ahead of game.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/1 -33%) Coal Fire		6 6/1(-33%)																															(3) Coal Fire 6/1, Appears to be on the up, hitting the crossbar from the front at Stratford on penultimate start before going one better with a last-gasp success at Market Rasen (20.6f, good to soft). 4 lb rise fair enough and he's one to consider. Improved and narrow winner latest; 4lb higher and ground may be an issue.
4	11 4th (11) (40/1 -21%) Blame Rose		40 40/1(-21%)																															(11) Blame Rose 40/1, Maiden who looks pretty limited judged on what she's shown in half-a-dozen starts over hurdles, and hopes now pinned on the first-time cheekpieces sparking improvement. Unplaced all starts; cheekpieces on for first time.
5th	6 5th (6) (22/1 -10%) Joie De Vivre		22 22/1(-10%)																															(6) Joie De Vivre 22/1, Won on the Flat in September and reached the frame in a Carlisle handicap hurdle and Sedgefield handicap chase later in the autumn. However, she was safely held back in this sphere at Hexham in June and others make more appeal. Better chance than it looks on the surface and return of cheekpieces could assist.
6th	8 6th (8) (8/1 -100%) Strike Of Lighting		8 8/1(-100%)																															(8) Strike Of Lighting 8/1, Belatedly gained first taste of success over this C&D in May and creditable third upped to 25.4f back here (good to soft) next time. That form looks solid (winner went in again on Saturday) and leading candidate back at what appears to be his optimum trip. C&D winner in May and good effort over further here next time; should run well.
7th	5 7th (5) (33/1 +0%) That's Me Finished		33 33/1(+0%)																															(5) That's Me Finished 33/1, Little impact in 7 starts over hurdles and it's hard to envisage this Irish raider making waves in this competitive handicap. Unplaced all starts, including handicaps, and only once better than tailed off.
8th	4 8th (4) (12/1 -140%) Prince Nino		12 12/1(-140%)																															(4) Prince Nino 12/1, Opened his account in 20.2f handicap here (good to soft) earlier this month, given an assertive ride and kept on gamely when challenged on the run-in. Moving back up in trip shouldn't be a problem but this is a tougher race. Two starts for this year and won gamely at Perth this month in the latest; 3lb higher.
9th	1 9th (1) (18/1 -140%) Sir Canford		18 18/1(-140%)																															(1) Sir Canford 18/1, Off the mark over hurdles at the third attempt for this yard in 2½m Uttoxeter handicap (good to soft) last month. That wasn't a particularly strong race, though, and a 4 lb rise could find him out. Uttoxeter winner on third start after long absence; up 4lb and in the shake-up again.
10th	2 10th (2) (11/1 -100%) Camilla's Choice		11 11/1(-100%)																															(2) Camilla's Choice 11/1, Surpassed pick of her Irish form when making second start for this yard a winning one at Bangor (23f, good). Up 8 lb but she did the job in decisive fashion and is likely to remain competitive. Won in style at Bangor this month and 8lb rise might not stop her going in again.

LTO Selection:

---

MY GIFT TO YOU made an immediate impact when switched to handicaps last month. A comfortable hurdles winner at Southwell, he went on to strike over fences next time out and James Owen's progressive five-year-old looks well placed to bring up his hat-trick now back over timber. Coal Fire and Prince Nino must enter calculations following their recent victories, while Camilla's Choice and Sir Canford are just two others to consider.

With five last-time-out winners, this looks very competitive. MY GIFT TO YOU has improved significantly since switched to this yard, equipped with a tongue strap and partnered by Harry Cobden the last twice, bagging handicaps in this sphere at Southwell and over fences at Worcester. The 5-y-o is taken to complete the hat-trick, perhaps at the chief expense of Coal Fire. Strike of Lighting also enters calculations and Camilla's Choice needs a second look, too.

A very competitive event could go to CAMILLA'S CHOICE after her emphatic Bangor win.

1	6 1st (6) (1.38/1 +31%) Task Force		1.38 1.38/1(+31%)																															(6) Task Force 1.38/1, Frankel colt with typically cracking Juddmonte pedigree. Made a winning start in ready fashion in 11-runner maiden at Salisbury (6f, good) 30 days ago. Sure to improve. Bred to be classy and he was an easy winner on last month's debut at Salisbury.
2	3 2nd (3) (8/1 -14%) Matters Most		8 8/1(-14%)																															(3) Matters Most 8/1, 500,000 gns yearling who has won 5f Salisbury novice and 6f Windsor nursery, making all 35 days ago, always travelling best at the head of affairs and holding off the persistent challenge of the runner-up. More needed on the bare form but can't be dismissed. Two wins from his four starts; further improvement is possible but necessary in this field.
3	4 3rd (4) (5/1 -43%) Seven Questions		5 5/1(-43%)																															(4) Seven Questions 5/1, Well on his way to becoming a very useful sprinter, following up his C&D win and completing the hat-trick in 8-runner nursery at Leicester (6f, good to firm, 6/5) 15 days ago. More to come and leading claims. Landed hat-trick in Leicester nursery and clearly thriving; respected now up in grade.
4	2 4th (2) (16/1 -88%) Bombay Bazaar		16 16/1(-88%)																															(2) Bombay Bazaar 16/1, 2 wins this term. 18/1, 15¼ lengths nineteenth of 23 to Big Evs in listed Windsor Castle Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) 68 days ago. This is easier and he could bounce back after a break. 2 wins at Beverley before Royal Ascot flop; better than that but others have stronger form.
5th	5 5th (5) (4.5/1 -13%) Shagraan		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(5) Shagraan 4.5/1, Won 6f Windsor novice in good style last month. 7½ lengths sixth of 8 to Big Evs in Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood (5f, heavy) 26 days ago. Booking of Buick a plus. No surprise to see a return to form back down in class. Listed runner-up at Newbury then soft ground was an excuse at Goodwood; major player.
6th	1 6th (1) (4/1 +20%) Asadna		4 4/1(+20%)																															(1) Asadna 4/1, Produced an excellent timefigure when winning by a whopping 12 lengths over C&D on debut for George Boughey, but hasn't kicked on, 2 lengths third of 9 to Action Point in listed race at Newbury (6f, good) 38 days ago. That form hasn't worked out. Very impressive over C&D on debut; hasn't kicked on but still posted a Listed third latest.

LTO Selection:

---

Shagraan (second) had Asadna (third) behind on his penultimate outing at Newbury and he can confirm that form here. However, preference is for the highly-progressive SEVEN QUESTIONS, as he defied a mark of 88 on his nursery bow in comfortable fashion at Leicester last time. The son of Kodiac could take another step forward and make it four wins from his last four starts. Task Force won nicely on his debut at Salisbury and is also considered.

SEVEN QUESTIONS and Task Force are the ones to focus on, both looking very promising sprinters, with George Scott's charge fancied to make it 4 wins in a row. Shagraan could be dangerous, while Asadna, visibly so impressive here on debut, suddenly has a bit to prove.

Easy Salisbury maiden winner TASK FORCE has an excellent pedigree and this exciting colt can take the rise in grade in his stride.

1	11 1st (11) (12/1 -118%) Belgoprince		12 12/1(-118%)																															(11) Belgoprince 12/1, Winner of a Tipperary handicap last month and creditable second of 15 at Killarney (1¾m, good) subsequently. 2 lb nudge fair enough and and should make his presence felt back down in trip here. One of two Irish raiders; back in good form last month; could go well.
2	8 2nd (8) (2.75/1 +31%) Liberated Light		2.75 2.75/1(+31%)																															(8) Liberated Light 2.75/1, Opened his account at the ninth attempt when driven out to land a 14-runner maiden at Killarney (1¾m, good to soft) last month. Returns to handicap company on a stiff-looking mark, though. Eyectaching contender under Champion Bumper-winning rider John Gleeson.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 -100%) Warning Sign		10 10/1(-100%)																															(6) Warning Sign 10/1, Successful at 2 yrs in France and produced by far his best effort on these shores when going close under David Dunsdon at Newbury (1¼m, good to soft) last month. 1 lb nudge fair enough and possibilities if coping with this step up in trip. Went close under David Dunsdon at Newbury last time; one to consider.
4	3 4th (3) (11/1 +21%) Sun King		11 11/1(+21%)																															(3) Sun King 11/1, Maiden winner for Aidan O'Brien last season and, save for a below-par display at Chepstow (1m) recently, he hasn't done much wrong since joining present yard. Stamina to prove now venturing beyond 1¼m for the first time but each-way chance if he does see it out. Has stamina to prove but being by Galileo is cause for some optimism.
5th	9 5th (9) (16/1 -33%) Restorer		16 16/1(-33%)																															(9) Restorer 16/1, Arrives here on a long losing run but he has posted a number of creditable efforts in defeat in the interim. Furthermore, he has slipped to a career-low mark and it would be no surprise whatsoever if this 11-y-o is involved in the finish. Veteran who is on a three-year losing spell; others preferred.
6th	7 6th (7) (6/1 +8%) Warhol		6 6/1(+8%)																															(7) Warhol 6/1, Got off the mark at Windsor in April and backed it up with an excellent second of 18 at Newbury the following month. Wasn't beaten far back from a break here 25 days ago and he needs considering back up in trip with Simon Walker booked. Consistent this season; solid contender with useful amateur Simon Walker booked.
7th	4 7th (4) (33/1 -83%) Ring Of Beara		33 33/1(-83%)																															(4) Ring Of Beara 33/1, Hasn't fired in this sphere since landing a Ffos Las maiden at 2 yrs and his effort at Haydock when returning from a break did little to suggest that he's about to turn things around. 0-7 (Flat/hurdles) for current yard, well beaten most recently.
8th	5 8th (5) (9/1 +10%) Premiere Ligne		9 9/1(+10%)																															(5) Premiere Ligne 9/1, Dual winner in France and stepped up on first 2 starts for current yard when runner-up at Lingfield in June. Put in another good shift when fourth at Brighton (11.9f, good) recently and perhaps the addition of cheekpieces will help eke out a little more. Gives the impression he'll take well to Epsom and first-time cheekpieces; interesting.
9th	2 9th (2) (5/1 +9%) Citizen General		5 5/1(+9%)																															(2) Citizen General 5/1, Looked better than ever in first-time blinkers when routing the opposition at Pontefract (1½m, good) 8 days ago. Leading claims turned out quickly under a penalty here. Won by wide margin in first-time blinkers at Pontefract; good chance under 5lb penalty.
10th	1 10th (1) (28/1 -133%) Appier		28 28/1(-133%)																															(1) Appier 28/1, Enhanced excellent strike rate at Lingfield in June and followed that with a solid effort in defeat at Newcastle. Latest effort in 2m Ascot handicap was underwhelming but not without each-way hope back down in trip here. Has form figures of 3131 in his races at about 1m4f this season; not dismissed.
11th	10 11th (10) (5.5/1 +39%) Captain Haddock		5.5 5.5/1(+39%)																															(10) Captain Haddock 5.5/1, Winner of this race in 2021 and wasn't ideally placed when sixth in last year's renewal. 7 lb lower in the weights 12 months on and, having performed well when runner-up back here last time, he has to enter calculations. Won this race off 10lb higher two years ago; second in Ladies' Derby here last time.

LTO Selection:

---

Having landed this contest in 2021, CAPTAIN HADDOCK returned to finish sixth in the corresponding event 12 months ago. Heather Main's charge is 7lb lower today and his recent C&D second would suggest he might be ready to exploit a sliding handicap mark. Citizen General merits the utmost respect under a 5lb penalty having bolted up at Pontefract eight days ago, while the consistent Warhol is unlikely to be far away in the capable hands of Simon Walker.

Preference is for WARHOL, who is entitled to come on for his latest run here when returning from a break of almost three months and the booking of top amateur Simon Walker adds to his appeal. The 2021 winner of this race, Captain Haddock, is lurking on an attractive mark and may emerge as the main danger, provided he doesn't get caught too far back, while recent wide-margin Pontefract winner Citizen General and Restorer are others to consider.

Several runners are appealing, most notably PREMIERE LIGNE. Second choice is Liberated Light.

1	3 1st (3) (5/1 +23%) Mai Dubai		5 5/1(+23%)																															(3) Mai Dubai 5/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 11 in minor event (9/1) at Kempton (7f) 19 days ago. Each-way chance if he manages to build on that improved effort. Third at Kempton last time and this £200,000 yearling could continue to progress.
2	9 2nd (9) (4/1 +0%) Tribal Rhythm		4 4/1(+0%)																															(9) Tribal Rhythm 4/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 8 in minor event at Beverley (7.4f, soft, 6/5) 27 days ago. Likely to pick up a race sooner rather than later. Slight step backwards on second start but this £150,000 yearling retains potential.
3	7 3rd (7) (1.1/1 +41%) Superposition		1.1 1.1/1(+41%)																															(7) Superposition 1.1/1, Promising individual. Fifth of 11 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to firm, 14/1) on debut 17 days ago. Entitled to come on for that and he's a must for the shortlist. Would have been closer than 5th on debut granted a clear run; firmly in calculations.
4	2 4th (2) (4/1 +43%) Juantorena		4 4/1(+43%)																															(2) Juantorena 4/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 6/1, eighth of 10 in maiden at Sandown (7f, soft) 32 days ago. Looks vulnerable on the back of that rather disappointing display. Close third at Haydock on second start then soft ground may not have suited at Windsor.
5th	10 5th (10) (33/1 -65%) Almudena		33 33/1(-65%)																															(10) Almudena 33/1, Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 10 in minor event (40/1) at Kempton (7f) on debut 12 days ago. That experience won't be wasted on her but she's probably more one for the longer term. Likely to come into her own when tackling further but market check advised on second start.
6th	11 6th (11) (20/1 -150%) Roman Secret		20 20/1(-150%)																															(11) Roman Secret 20/1, Twice-raced maiden. 13/8, third of 7 in minor event at Ayr (7.2f, good) 21 days ago, needing stiffer test. Needs to take a step forward here. Has a useful pedigree and has shown promise on both starts; might not be far away.
7th	4 7th (4) (100/1 +0%) Northern Cracksman		100 100/1(+0%)																															(4) Northern Cracksman 100/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in maiden (100/1) at Pontefract (6f, good) on debut 19 days ago. Readily passed over. 100-1 and always behind on recent debut at Pontefract (6f, good); transformation needed.
8th	8 8th (8) (22/1 -83%) The Crafty Mole		22 22/1(-83%)																															(8) The Crafty Mole 22/1, Foaled March 18. €16,000 yearling, Study of Man gelding. Dam 1¼m winner who stayed 1½m. Yard can ready a newcomer and he's worth a second look in the betting. Dam 1m2f AW winner (RPR 82); gelded; may be one for further down the line.

LTO Selection:

---

SUPERPOSITION travelled well on his debut at Newmarket and may have finished even better than fifth had he not been put off his stride when a bit short of room near the finish. That run will have taught him plenty and more can be expected from this son of Sea The Stars with that experience to draw upon. Tribal Rhythm has also shown promise in two previous starts and is feared most, while Roman Secret and Mai Dubai are other likely improvers.

Following an encouraging debut at Newmarket earlier this month, SUPERPOSITION looks the way to go. The Sea The Stars colt holds an entry in the Royal Lodge and while it remains to be seen if he'll prove good enough to take his chance in that Group 2 contest. a race of this nature should be well within his grasp. Tribal Rhythm is taken to follow the selection home, with Mai Dubai best of the rest.

Having caught the eye when an unlucky fifth on his debut at Newmarket, SUPERPOSITION is the selection.

1	8 1st (8) (5.5/1 +27%) Paidi's Passion		5.5 5.5/1(+27%)																															(8) Paidi's Passion 5.5/1, Tenth of 15 in handicap hurdle (4/1) at Ballinrobe (21.6f, good) 34 days ago, weakening when not fluent at the last. Roscommon second in July was encouraging, reported to be in season when below best latest.
2	5 2nd (5) (7.5/1 +58%) Gladiatorial		7.5 7.5/1(+58%)																															(5) Gladiatorial 7.5/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (17.2f, heavy, 33/1) 37 days ago. Back up in trip. Has tended to show his best form at this venue and at Cartmel but poor form so far in 2023.
3	9 3rd (9) (20/1 -43%) Moneynabane		20 20/1(-43%)																															(9) Moneynabane 20/1, 40/1, good fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good) 9 days ago. Others more persuasive. Poor form in points and has so far failed to make any significant impression over hurdles.
4	7 4th (7) (3.5/1 -27%) The Grey Monty		3.5 3.5/1(-27%)																															(7) The Grey Monty 3.5/1, Very good second of 7 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at this course (21.8f, good) 15 days ago. Has to be taken seriously on the back of that very encouraging return to action. Second here last time with Lighthouse Rose back in fourth, should be in the mix again.
5th	6 5th (6) (3.5/1 -40%) Joshua Chamberlain		3.5 3.5/1(-40%)																															(6) Joshua Chamberlain 3.5/1, 7/1, career best when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at Tramore (21f, heavy) 10 days ago, comfortably. New mark and different ground this time. Handled testing conditions well when winning readily at Tramore, different ground now.
6th	4 6th (4) (10/1 -11%) Lighthouse Rose		10 10/1(-11%)																															(4) Lighthouse Rose 10/1, 3-time C&D winner. Blinkered for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at this course (21.8f, good, 7/1) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. All three wins have come over C&D, held by The Grey Monty on running here last time.
7th	2 7th (2) (8.5/1 +66%) Sargent Lightfoot		8.5 8.5/1(+66%)																															(2) Sargent Lightfoot 8.5/1, Below form eighth of 19 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Galway (16.6f, soft) 28 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Should strip fitter with that under his belt. Hood off. Kilbeggan hurdles/chase winner last year, ran over a trip short of his best at Galway.
8th	3 8th (3) (7/1 -100%) Glendars Mahler		7 7/1(-100%)																															(3) Glendars Mahler 7/1, Tongue strap on for first time, career best when winning 10-runner novice hurdle (11/2) at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Opened her account with an emphatic Sligo maiden win over 2m2f, extra 7lb may anchor her.
9th	1 9th (1) (16/1 +20%) Snugsborough Benny		16 16/1(+20%)																															(1) Snugsborough Benny 16/1, Twenty three runs since last win in 2019. Slipped up before race took shape in handicap hurdle at Tramore (21f, heavy, 20/1) 10 days ago, won by Joshua Chamberlain. Veteran has gone a long time without a win, several good runs in defeat last year.
10th	10 10th (10) (16/1 +20%) Porky Rush		16 16/1(+20%)																															(10) Porky Rush 16/1, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs. 18/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Limerick (22f, soft) 32 days ago. Poor form this year, merits some respect on the basis of last season's C&D placed form.

LTO Selection:

---

GLENDARS MAHLER is an intriguing runner on her return to a track where she shaped well previously. The seven-year-old looked as though she would have won her maiden at this course on her hurdling debut last June only to come to grief when travelling easily two out. On her only subsequent visit, the James Fahey-trained mare finished third here earlier in the summer. Having won for the first time in her career at Sligo recently, the Frank Reynolds-owned runner holds strong claims. Trainer Noel Kelly always has to be respected at this track and Gladiatorial is one that could outrun his odds. The dual winner has run some of his better races at this venue, including a course and distance success. The Grey Monty, runner-up here earlier this month, should improve enough to be a leading contender.

THE GREY MONTY's return from a year off here a fortnight ago was very promising and on that evidence, this mark is within range. Glendars Mahler and Paidi's Passion are a couple of viable threats.

Beaten only 1/2l at this venue on her first outing in almost a year, THE GREY MONTY gets the vote to step up a place

1	9 1st (9) (7.5/1 -36%) King Of War		7.5 7.5/1(-36%)																															(9) King Of War 7.5/1, C&D winner. Good second of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Claims if he can build on that. Perhaps went off too fast when not quite seeing it out at Lingfield.
2	3 2nd (3) (3.33/1 +49%) Little Boy Blue		3.33 3.33/1(+49%)																															(3) Little Boy Blue 3.33/1, C&D winner in June. Respectable fourth of 7 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 9/2) 18 days ago. Not discounted. Best at Brighton but also runs this track well and current mark is very manageable.
3	6 3rd (6) (3/1 -9%) Redredrobin		3 3/1(-9%)																															(6) Redredrobin 3/1, C&D winner in 2022 and has won 5 times elsewhere in a very productive 2023. Creditable second of 6 in handicap at Epsom (7f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Another prominent showing likely. Just missed out on the hat-trick when runner-up at Epsom but again ran with credit.
4	4 4th (4) (6.5/1 +0%) Macs Dilemma		6.5 6.5/1(+0%)																															(4) Macs Dilemma 6.5/1, Three-time C&D winner, the latest in July. Type to bounce back from a rare below-par run in a Racing league handicap over C&D 18 days ago. Blinkered first time. Had been in really good form until beating only one home on his latest visit here.
5th	1 5th (1) (14/1 +30%) Baileysgutfeeling		14 14/1(+30%)																															(1) Baileysgutfeeling 14/1, Won a Leicester seller in June (final start for Kevin Philippart de Foy) . 80/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (1m) 5 days ago. Tonge strap on first time. Others are more obvious. Started off okay for this yard but has regressed sharply the last twice.
6th	7 6th (7) (9/1 +10%) Tiriac		9 9/1(+10%)																															(7) Tiriac 9/1, Won a 6f Doncaster maiden in the mud last November but has struggled in 3 handicaps this year. Needs a wind op since last seen in June to have had a positive effect. Made no impression in his three handicaps and now returns from wind surgery.
7th	2 7th (2) (3/1 +14%) Autumn Festival		3 3/1(+14%)																															(2) Autumn Festival 3/1, C&D winner. Seven wins from 25 Flat runs. Had excuses when last of 11 at Beverley latest and back on a good mark if staging a revival. Inconsistent this year but he's due a good run after his no-show at Beverley.

LTO Selection:

---

Redredrobin has enjoyed a profitable campaign with five wins from her last eight starts. However, she looks vulnerable back up in class, while Macs Dilemma, who won over C&D last month, also makes the shortlist dropping back in trip. Nevertheless, LITTLE BOY BLUE appeals most off just 1lb higher than his own C&D success in June and he could be difficult to overhaul if allowed a soft lead.

AUTUMN FESTIVAL has a mixed record this year but is well handicapped and is worth chancing at a venue where he's tasted success before. C&D specialist Macs Dilemma is second choice ahead of the prolific Redredrobin.

Mark Walford's CORI GLORY appeared to be coming along nicely until getting stuck in the mud at Beverley.

1	8 1st (8) (80/1 -60%) Smart Connection		80 80/1(-60%)																															(8) Smart Connection 80/1, Fair at best on Flat for Alice Haynes but has shown little form this year, yet to make much impact over hurdles and he was always behind back on the level last month. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Has been unplaced in all starts for this yard.
2	2 2nd (2) (6.5/1 +54%) Native Fighter		6.5 6.5/1(+54%)																															(2) Native Fighter 6.5/1, Dual course winner in 2021 but below his best last year and hasn't fared any better in 2 starts this summer, seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (17.2f) last time. Has dropped further in the weights, but return of cheekpieces needs to spark a revival. Seemingly in steady decline in last two years; would prefer quicker; yard form a plus.
3	4 3rd (4) (7/1 -56%) Sunshine Girl		7 7/1(-56%)																															(4) Sunshine Girl 7/1, Upped further in trip, showed improved form when getting off the mark in mares' handicap at Southwell (24.3f) in July. Subsequently left Stuart Crawford and shaped better than the result when fifth of 9 in handicap at Bangor (23f) earlier this month. Shortlisted. Southwell winner last month; well held on stable debut latest; better needed.
4	5 4th (5) (2.25/1 +18%) Unwanted Attention		2.25 2.25/1(+18%)																															(5) Unwanted Attention 2.25/1, Built on earlier promise when opening account in 8-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in June, rallying to lead over 2f out. Could do with brushing up his jumping, but should be suited by this longer trip and he can make his presence felt. Much improved when winning latest start (well backed); 5lb higher.
5th	10 5th (10) (12/1 +14%) Confelicity		12 12/1(+14%)																															(10) Confelicity 12/1, Unplaced all 3 starts in Irish points and didn't offer much on her first 3 starts over hurdles. However, upped in trip she showed her first form when third at Perth (23.9f) on her handicap debut at the beginning of the month. Task is now to build on her latest effort. Tailed off in novices but ran well for long way on this month's handicap debut.
6th	7 6th (7) (6/1 +0%) You Say Its Over		6 6/1(+0%)																															(7) You Say Its Over 6/1, Showed more than previously upped in trip when second in C&D maiden in June. Unsuited by the return to shorter when fourth of 9 at Market Rasen (20.6f) last time, so she could fare better now handicapping back at this venue. Has shown enough to be of interest on handicap debut with Brian Hughes booked.
7th	6 7th (6) (3/1 -9%) Blended Stealth		3 3/1(-9%)																															(6) Blended Stealth 3/1, Placed 3 times for Nigel Twiston-Davies last season and, after 11 weeks off, shaped encouragingly on his stable debut when third at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in July. Well treated on old form and he can get off the mark with tongue strap on first time. Third on stable debut last month; lots of good runs but 0-15 over hurdles; tongue-strap on.
8th	9 8th (9) (33/1 +0%) Robeam		33 33/1(+0%)																															(9) Robeam 33/1, Showed that he retains some ability when fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (24.3f) in June, but virtually refused to race next time and was very slowly away when down the field on his latest outing. Best watched. Good spell of form last year but out of sorts since.
3	3 |PU| (3) (12/1 -140%) Tip Top Tonto		12 12/1(-140%)																															(3) Tip Top Tonto 12/1, Fair form at best but, after 12 months off, he failed to justify favouritism when a well-beaten third in maiden at Uttoxeter (15.8f) in June. Fared no better at Worcester a month later, so he needs to get back on track upped in trip for his handicap debut (cheekpieces reapplied). Well beaten in both starts this summer; up in trip for handicap debut; cheekpieces back.

LTO Selection:

---

BLENDED STEALTH made a highly encouraging first start for the Lizzie Quinlan stable when he managed to hit the frame at Uttoxeter over 2m4f and the son of Walk In The Park now goes in a first-time tongue-tie, which could eke out the improvement needed to score now back up in trip. Last-time-out victor Unwanted Attention is a live threat after he accounted for his nearest rival by a length and he should go well off a 5lb higher mark. Any market support for Tip Top Tonto on his handicap bow would be of interest.

BLENDED STEALTH shaped encouragingly on his stable debut when third at Uttoxeter last month and, with a tongue strap applied, he can build on his latest effort to open his account. Unwanted Attention arrives here on the back of his first success and is feared most upped in trip, with Sunshine Girl completing the shortlist.

After his improved display when winning at Uttoxeter, UNWANTED ATTENTION (nap) makes most appeal.

1	1 1st (1) (2.5/1 +29%) Isla Kai		2.5 2.5/1(+29%)																															(1) Isla Kai 2.5/1, C&D winner. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (7/2) at Newbury (7f, good) 9 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Enters calculations. C&D winner in April and good third at Newbury recently; solid contender.
2	7 2nd (7) (18/1 +10%) Maysong		18 18/1(+10%)																															(7) Maysong 18/1, Latest win at Sandown in June. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Newmarket (8f, good to soft) 37 days ago. Capable of bouncing back. Two wins this year but only seventh the last twice and needs to raise his game.
3	4 3rd (4) (2/1 +0%) Kathab		2 2/1(+0%)																															(4) Kathab 2/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Haydock (8.2f, good, 11/2) 16 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Diamondonthehill. Firmly on the up and boasts leading claims as he bids to complete the hat-trick. Won on handicap debut at Haydock and can continue to progress for top trainer.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 +29%) United Front		10 10/1(+29%)																															(6) United Front 10/1, Latest win at Beverley in June. 18/1, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good) 18 days ago. Hood back on. Had been in good order prior to latest effort. Blip at Chepstow last time but otherwise in good form since winning at Beverley in June.
5th	3 5th (3) (8/1 -45%) Diamondonthehill		8 8/1(-45%)																															(3) Diamondonthehill 8/1, Latest win at Yarmouth in June. 20/1, very good 1¼ lengths second of 13 to Kathab in handicap at Haydock (8.2f, good) 16 days ago. Shortlist material. Won at Yarmouth in June and good second to Kathab at Haydock latest; can be thereabouts.
6th	5 6th (5) (7/1 -8%) James Mchenry		7 7/1(-8%)																															(5) James Mchenry 7/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Haydock in May. 4/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (10f, good) 30 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Respected. Back to form when third over 1m2f at Newmarket and may appreciate this drop back in trip.
7th	8 7th (8) (12/1 +14%) Garden Oasis		12 12/1(+14%)																															(8) Garden Oasis 12/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win at Ayr in June. Tenth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 10/1) 9 days ago, not clear run. Not completely dismissed. Down the field the last twice but this four-time C&D winner is not written off.
8th	2 8th (2) (11/1 -120%) Another Batt		11 11/1(-120%)																															(2) Another Batt 11/1, C&D winner. Won 11-runner handicap at Thirsk (8f, heavy, 11/1) 23 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. One to consider in the hat-trick bid. Soft-ground wins the last twice; solid form on good going last year; could again go well.

LTO Selection:

---

Isla Kai has claims on his third in a valuable 7f handicap at Newbury last time, but it could pay to concentrate on the hat-trick seeking duo of KATHAB and Another Batt. Both began their winning runs over this C&D and are progressive, but the William Haggas-trained gelding's form on a better surface tips the balance in his favour. He powered home to win well at Haydock and a 6lb rise may not be enough to halt him.

KATHAB is a progressive 3yo and he had a bit to spare when winning a Haydock handicap at the expense of Diamondonthehill, who is worthy of respect on better terms with the selection. Isla Kai is also of interest.

The unexposed 3yo KATHAB made it two wins in a row when scoring on his handicap debut at Haydock and he can land the hat-trick.

4	4 (4) (18/1 -100%) Zhang Fei		18 18/1(-100%)																															(4) Zhang Fei 18/1, Good second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 28/1), well positioned. Off 132 days. First run for yard after leaving Paul & Oliver Cole. Hood on 1st time. Generally reliable and feasibly treated, so not a forlorn hope if he's tuned up. Absent for four months; heed the market signals on debut for new yard.
1	1 1st (1) (12/1 -9%) Satono Japan		12 12/1(-9%)																															(1) Satono Japan 12/1, Successful on AW sole start as a 2-y-o but went winless thereafter for Sir Michael Stoute. Fairly low-key start for his current yard, though not disgraced when fifth in Ascot handicap 45 days ago. Needs a step forward from that. Latest effort wasn't bad but his long losing spell tempers enthusiasm.
2	6 2nd (6) (3.33/1 -21%) Oh So Grand		3.33 3.33/1(-21%)																															(6) Oh So Grand 3.33/1, Doubled her tally with an easy success in 5-runner minor event at Wolverhampton in July. Bit disappointing at Lingfield next time but it's still early days and she may well get back on the up. Things went against her on handicap debut; still open to further improvement.
3	10 3rd (10) (3.5/1 +56%) Flight Of Angels		3.5 3.5/1(+56%)																															(10) Flight Of Angels 3.5/1, Made all in handicap at Wetherby (1¼m) in June and ran to a similar level on next 3 outings. Too free at Salisbury last time but no surprise if she's back on track. Non-stayer over 1m4f last time; consistent over 1m2f otherwise this term.
4	2 4th (2) (7.5/1 -25%) Udaberri		7.5 7.5/1(-25%)																															(2) Udaberri 7.5/1, Has a poor strike rate and, while he's normally consistent, he arrives on the back of a sub-par showing at Sandown 72 days ago. Drop in trip may suit and he's worth monitoring in the betting. Best form is over 1m3f/1m4f but has place claims if coping with this trip.
5th	7 5th (7) (14/1 -40%) Light Up Our Stars		14 14/1(-40%)																															(7) Light Up Our Stars 14/1, On a dangerous mark and back in form when last seen, again hitting the frame when fourth at Ripon 99 days ago. Off since but he's scored here before and merits respect. Last appearance at Epsom resulted in a success off 3lb higher; interesting.
6th	8 6th (8) (66/1 -313%) Giovanni Baglione		66 66/1(-313%)																															(8) Giovanni Baglione 66/1, 1m winner as a 3yo but hit and miss this season and hard to recommend on the back of a tame stable debut at Sandown. Blew the start last time (stable debut); penultimate effort was encouraging.
7th	5 7th (5) (1.38/1 +50%) Ribal		1.38 1.38/1(+50%)																															(5) Ribal 1.38/1, Lightly-raced maiden who arrives in good order, third in a minor event at Bath last time. Cheekpieces could eke a bit more out of him, so likely to feature. Gives the impression he'll benefit from first-time headgear; remains of interest.

LTO Selection:

---

The unexposed OH SO GRAND was not disgraced, despite being a beaten favourite, on her handicap debut at Lingfield a month ago and she merits the utmost respect in a race of this nature. Ribal remains a maiden but is more than capable of going well here and may even improve for the application of first-time cheekpieces. Light Up Our Stars and Zhang Fei are others to note.

OH SO GRAND looked progressive before a blip at Lingfield last time and she's worth a chance to resume winning ways. Fellow 3yo Ribal may pose the biggest threat, although Light Up Our Stars could feature if ready to go after a break.

First-time headgear may well enable RIBAL to build on some placed form and get off the mark. Oh So Grand is feared most.

1	4 1st (4) (3.5/1 +0%) Grozni		3.5 3.5/1(+0%)																															(4) Grozni 3.5/1, Fairly useful winner at 23f over hurdles. 7/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable third of 7 in minor event chase at Tramore (21.6f, heavy) 10 days ago. One for the shortlist. Three-time winning hurdler; fair efforts in four starts over fences this year.
2	7 2nd (7) (33/1 +34%) Typical Thomas		33 33/1(+34%)																															(7) Typical Thomas 33/1, Fair hurdler. 8/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Sligo (20.4f, good to soft) 18 days ago, folding. Switches from hurdles to chase with work to do. Has a good bit to find on hurdles form; well beaten on chase debut at Ballinrobe in May.
3	8 3rd (8) (12/1 +45%) Weddell Sea		12 12/1(+45%)																															(8) Weddell Sea 12/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Only fourth of 6 in minor event at this course (17.3f, good, 9/2) 15 days ago. More is required on his chase debut. Came from the Flat in France and fair handicapper over hurdles; makes chasing debut.
4	6 4th (6) (1.2/1 +73%) Rexem		1.2 1.2/1(+73%)																															(6) Rexem 1.2/1, Fairly useful winner at 23f over hurdles. 16/5, encouraging second of 11 in novice chase at Wexford (19.8f, heavy) on debut over fences 17 days ago, no match for winner. Open to progress. In the mix. Bumper and hurdles winner here; back from a break when second on chase debut at Wexford.
5th	3 5th (3) (4/1 -60%) Grand Roi		4 4/1(-60%)																															(3) Grand Roi 4/1, Useful hurdler. 20/1 and blinkered for 1st time, twelfth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft) 125 days ago. Switches to chasing now but failed to complete on last two runs in that sphere. Good claims if back on song. Smart hurdler tried chasing last year, second at Listowel but jumping issues thereafter.
6th	5 6th (5) (14/1 -65%) Plains Indian		14 14/1(-65%)																															(5) Plains Indian 14/1, Useful hurdler. 8/1, fifth of 6 in minor event hurdle at Cork (18.7f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Makes chase debut and can't be dismissed. Three wins over hurdles last year; returned from long break in July and now goes chasing.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -60%) Douglas Dc		16 16/1(-60%)																															(1) Douglas Dc 16/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Cork (17f, good to soft, 9/1) 21 days ago. Much respected on his chase debut. Maiden hurdle winner has been running well on the Flat this summer; chasing debut.
8th	2 8th (2) (7/1 -133%) Gentleman Joe		7 7/1(-133%)																															(2) Gentleman Joe 7/1, Fairly useful Fal/hurdles winner. Promising second of 7 in novice chase at Roscommon (16.4f, soft, 7/4) on debut over fences 20 days ago. Trainer going well. Open to improvement. Player. Maiden hurdle winner at Clonmel in May; decent start over fences when second at Roscommon.

GRAND ROI will need to improve on his two most recent starts over fences but the Gordon Elliott-trained gelding should find this easier than recent tasks. A runner-up at Listowel on his chasing debut last September, the seven-year-old has subsequently failed to complete in two further runs over fences. However, there was sufficient promise in his most recent starts back hurdling to suggest he retains enough ability to win a race of this nature. Point-to-point winner Rexam shaped well on his recent chasing debut at Wexford so has to have a solid chance at a track where he has tasted success over hurdles. Grozni was well supported at Tramore recently but could manage no better than third. Connections clearly feel that he is good enough to win a similar race.

GENTLEMAN JOE shaped well on his first go over fences when runner-up at Roscommon and this fairly useful Flat/hurdles winner can build on it to get off the mark in this sphere. Rexem also made an encouraging chasing start when second at Wexford so could emerge as the chief threat ahead of form=choice Grand Roi who would be a threat to all if completing on this occasion.

Quite competitive but maybe REXEM, twice a winner at this venue, can go one place better than on his chasing debut at Wexford

12	12 (12) (80/1 -300%) Arlecchino's Gift		80 80/1(-300%)																															(12) Arlecchino's Gift 80/1, Latest win at Windsor in June. 20/1, tenth of 12 in handicap there (6f, good) 14 days ago. Looks competitive on form if shrugging off latest effort. Won at Windsor in June but he's been back in the doldrums since then; risky.
1	1 1st (1) (1.1/1 +12%) The Waiting Game		1.1 1.1/1(+12%)																															(1) The Waiting Game 1.1/1, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 10/3) 4 days ago. A ready winner there so she's the one to beat under a 5 lb penalty on her tapeta debut. Emphatic wins at Chelmsford last twice and she's open to more progress; big player.
2	8 2nd (8) (18/1 -13%) Eldeyaar		18 18/1(-13%)																															(8) Eldeyaar 18/1, 9/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 10 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Two Tapeta wins last year but he's lost his way and has lots to prove.
3	6 3rd (6) (11/1 +8%) Noble Captain		11 11/1(+8%)																															(6) Noble Captain 11/1, 22/1, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 25 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. 0-7 but he had a near miss on Tapeta (6f) on his penultimate run; in the mix.
4	7 4th (7) (14/1 +13%) Stella Blue		14 14/1(+13%)																															(7) Stella Blue 14/1, 50/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Has work to do. Went close over C&D in May but she's been disappointing since and is now 0-8.
5th	10 5th (10) (50/1 -257%) Enchanted Night		50 50/1(-257%)																															(10) Enchanted Night 50/1, One win from 36 Flat runs. Winner at Yarmouth in July. 11/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Unreliable type. Infrequent winner who faded over 6f latest and doesn't have a great record at this track.
6th	4 6th (4) (2.75/1 +73%) Mumcat		2.75 2.75/1(+73%)																															(4) Mumcat 2.75/1, One win from 30 Flat runs. Twenty five runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fifth of 18 in handicap (12/1) at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 2 days ago. Sole win was in a 7f Wolverhampton maiden last spring; fifth of 18 at Redcar on Saturday.
7th	13 7th (13) (16/1 -14%) Final Frontier		16 16/1(-14%)																															(13) Final Frontier 16/1, Good fourth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 11/1) 25 days ago. It's now seventeen runs since last win in 2021, though. On dangerous mark and he showed signs of a revival at Newcastle (6f, AW) last time.
8th	11 8th (11) (10/1 -67%) Congress		10 10/1(-67%)																															(11) Congress 10/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 8-runner minor event at this C&D (4/1) 8 days ago, well on top finish. Not taken lightly under a 6 lb penalty. Off the mark with a comfortable win over C&D last Sunday; respected under a penalty.
9th	2 9th (2) (20/1 -150%) Autumn Flight		20 20/1(-150%)																															(2) Autumn Flight 20/1, Good fourth of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good, 3/1) 39 days ago. Much respected. Has mixed record for current yard but he's on a workable mark and is not ruled out.
10th	9 10th (9) (33/1 -230%) Byefornow		33 33/1(-230%)																															(9) Byefornow 33/1, Latest win at Lingfield in April. 7/1, below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. More is needed. On last winning mark but she's been well held in last four runs and others are preferred.
11th	3 11th (3) (33/1 -175%) Phoenix Star		33 33/1(-175%)																															(3) Phoenix Star 33/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, heavy). Off 135 days. Chance on old form. On reduced mark but his losing run is up to 11 and has something to prove after a break.
12th	14 12th (14) (100/1 -203%) Georgia Madeleine		100 100/1(-203%)																															(14) Georgia Madeleine 100/1, Last of 9 in handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm, 11/1). Off 97 days with more required. Just one win from ten starts and has something to prove after another break.

LTO Selection:

There is a lot to like about the chances of THE WAITING GAME, who is still unexposed at the trip and, having won each of her last two starts at Chelmsford with plenty in hand, a third straight success over 6f is a distinct possibility. Switching back to a Tapeta surface under a 5lb penalty is a slight concern, though, and may open the door for the potentially well-handicapped Autumn Flight and Phoenix Star, both of whom are very much respected.

THE WAITING GAME has her first go on tapeta but still looks the way to go under a 5 lb penalty for her stylish Chelmsford City success only four days ago which sees her still on a winning mark. Recent C&D scorer Congress appeals as the chief threat to Jack Jones's filly ahead of Arlecchino's Gift and Autumn Flight.

The most striking contender is THE WAITING GAME (nap) whose form has really taken off with her two emphatic wins at Chelmsford.

Bit below form seventh of 17 in bumper (15/8) at Cork (18.7f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Switches from bumpers to hurdles. Cheekpieces on first time and he's a big player on his earlier form.

Remains a maiden after 8 hurdle runs. 12/1, fell in novice hurdle at Cork (18.7f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Rated 99 and was placed in Cork maiden last month; faller at halfway back there last time.

LTO Selection:

The form of SILVER KING's fourth and third in a pair of maiden hurdles at Punchestown in November has been well endorsed. He is entitled to be sharper for a comeback seventh in a bumper at Cork this month. Quarry Rocco has a chance. The rain on Sunday should aid his cause as he is probably one for winter ground. This former point-to-point winner kept on for fourth in a maiden hurdle on soft ground at the Galway Festival and was well clear of the remainder. On The Tide made a promising return to action when third at Kilbeggan. He had previously shown ability when runner-up in a bumper at Tipperary in May last year. Quarry Rocco's stablemate, Casey West, has been off a long time but showed decent form for his former trainer.

Despite being sent off at unflattering odds having displayed little in a bumper, QUARRY ROCCO offered plenty to work on when fourth on hurdles debut 3 weeks ago. This trip should unlock more so he gets the tentative vote in an open race. Silver King is dangerous id reacting positively to cheekpieces, with Edge of My Seat also considered.

From a yard in fine form, QUARRY ROOCO ran a lovely race on hurdles bow in a good maiden at Galway and is preferred to \bSilver King/p

1	5 1st (5) (7.5/1 -50%) Pavlodar		7.5 7.5/1(-50%)																															(5) Pavlodar 7.5/1, Very good second of 9 in handicap over C&D (good to soft, 16/1) 31 days ago. Can make presence felt off an unchanged mark. Much better returned to 7f when just missing out here a month ago; same mark.
2	8 2nd (8) (8/1 -78%) Fact Or Fable		8 8/1(-78%)																															(8) Fact Or Fable 8/1, Three-time C&D winner this year, the latest in game fashion on Thursday. More on his plate under a 5 lb penalty but can't be discounted in his current mood. Prominent racer who should give his running once more despite carrying a penalty.
3	3 3rd (3) (6.5/1 -8%) Thewaytothestars		6.5 6.5/1(-8%)																															(3) Thewaytothestars 6.5/1, Won at Ffos Las (7f) and Windsor (1m) this month. Possibly couldn't cope with a quick turnaround when only fifth of 7 back at Ffos Las (1m) 12 days ago. Beaten under a double penalty last time and up another 1lb for this.
4	1 4th (1) (6.5/1 -30%) Roscioli		6.5 6.5/1(-30%)																															(1) Roscioli 6.5/1, Latest win at Brighton in June. 17/2, good second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to soft) 28 days ago, no match for winner. Solid efforts on his last three runs and the race didn't go like clockwork last time.
5th	6 5th (6) (16/1 -191%) Dourado		16 16/1(-191%)																															(6) Dourado 16/1, Winner of AW at Kempton in May and bounced straight back from a poor run at Lingfield when landing a 13-runner handicap at Windsor (1m, good, 16/1) 35 days ago. Should remain competitive up 4 lb. Back up a combined 7lb after winning two of his last three; perhaps best at 1m.
6th	2 6th (2) (14/1 -115%) Ibiza Rocks		14 14/1(-115%)																															(2) Ibiza Rocks 14/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. 6/1, fifth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (7f) 25 days ago. First-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) need to have a positive effect. Hasn't kicked on from a respectable start for this yard and now goes in blinkers.
7th	4 7th (4) (12/1 +14%) Iconic Knight		12 12/1(+14%)																															(4) Iconic Knight 12/1, Three-time C&D winner. Below par this year but not seen to best effect on recent stable debut and well handicapped if staging a revival. One to note in the betting. Reservations after finishing only seventh on recent stable debut.
8th	9 8th (9) (33/1 -65%) What A Whopper		33 33/1(-65%)																															(9) What A Whopper 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (6f, good to soft, 80/1) 18 days ago. Blinkers on first time. Has work to do. Achieved little to date, including two handicaps; blinkers need to make a difference.
9th	7 9th (7) (22/1 -57%) Chindwin		22 22/1(-57%)																															(7) Chindwin 22/1, Down the field in 3 handicaps this year. Mark on the slide but need to see a lot more. Unplaced in all six starts and has been well down the field in his handicaps.
10th	11 10th (11) (1.5/1 +70%) Coffeemeanscoffee		1.5 1.5/1(+70%)																															(11) Coffeemeanscoffee 1.5/1, C&D winner in July and followed up over 6f at Ffos Las 3 days later. Shaped as if still in good form when fifth over 1m here on Thursday and this return to 7f should be in her favour. Player. Better expected back at this trip off what remains a fair mark.
11th	10 11th (10) (25/1 -108%) Star Map		25 25/1(-108%)																															(10) Star Map 25/1, Second in a 6f Doncaster maiden in May but well beaten on all 3 other starts, including Newcastle handicap debut 25 days ago. Is effectively 6 lb lower this time if Billy Loughnane's claims is taken into account. Her second at Doncaster in May is very much a standout and that was a modest race.
12th	12 12th (12) (150/1 -127%) Patrioctic		150 150/1(-127%)																															(12) Patrioctic 150/1, No form of worth on Flat and pulled over hurdles when last seen in May. Pulled up in novice hurdle on sole run this year; has achieved little on the Flat.

FACT OR FABLE is an appealing option turned out under a 5lb penalty for last week's C&D success. That was his third victory at this venue and his proven effectiveness on these undulations is a very persuasive factor. Dourado also commands respect on the back of his Windsor success and can go well again, despite dropping back in trip off a 4lb higher mark. Thewaytothestars and Coffeemeanscoffee are others for the shortlist.

COFFEEMEANSCOFFEE was possibly stretched by 1m here last week and is narrowly preferred to last-time-out C&D second Pavlodar. Fact Or Fable may not be obviously well treated under a 5 lb penalty for Thursday's C&D win but his very good record here this year makes him a must for the shortlist.

Better than the result there next time and not ruled out up in trip. Good recent form over 2m2f at Market Rasen and this longer trip won't faze her.
3	3 3rd (3) (2.25/1 +25%) Shantou Sunset		2.25 2.25/1(+25%)																															(3) Shantou Sunset 2.25/1, Dual winner at Stratford last season and made a very positive start for new yard when edged out on the line in similar handicap over further here 8 weeks ago. Nudged up 3 lb but clearly of interest. Very nearly won her seventh race over 3m1f here two months ago.
4	4 4th (4) (7.5/1 -15%) Belles Benefit		7.5 7.5/1(-15%)																															(4) Belles Benefit 7.5/1, Landed a gamble in good style on first run for yard at Fontwell and continued in form, taking a keen hold and no match for classy winner at Market Rasen when last seen 13 months ago. Down 4 lb and a player if ready to go. Has form here; can go well fresh and this reduced mark offers hope.
5th	2 5th (2) (4.5/1 -64%) Jumping Susie		4.5 4.5/1(-64%)																															(2) Jumping Susie 4.5/1, Has returned in good form, looking the likely winner for much of the straight but collared late in Killarney mares' maiden 5 weeks ago. That race had a bit of depth to it and she could have more to offer now handicapping for yard that does well here. Career-best form in finishing second in Irish maidens at 2m4f and 2m7f.
6th	1 6th (1) (10/1 -122%) Bon Retour		10 10/1(-122%)																															(1) Bon Retour 10/1, Dual winner for Nicky Richards last summer, including this race. Yet to show that form for current yard but she was given a considerate return from a 3-month break at Market Rasen in June. Similar absence since and she lurks on a tempting mark. Won this last year but needs a turnaround in form for her current yard.

SHANTOU SUNSET just missed out by a short head in a fierce battle to the line over an extended 3m1f around here last time and despite being raised 3lb for that effort, the nine-year-old can cope with the drop back in distance to score on only her second start for the James Moffatt yard. Jumping Susie makes her handicap bow after hitting the crossbar on both of her outings this year and she could get involved off what looks a workable opening mark of 108. Belles Benefit returns from a layoff but could prove the pick of the remainder if fully wound up for her reappearance.

Tricky stuff but JUMPING SUSIE might have more to offer now handicapping for an Irish yard that does well here and she gets the vote over Shantou Sunset and last year's winner Bon Retour.

Quite a competitive finale. SPOT ON SOPH is on a high enough mark but her recent efforts bode well.

1	10 1st (10) (9/1 +18%) We Still Believe		9 9/1(+18%)																															(10) We Still Believe 9/1, 8/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 13 days ago. Doesn't appear to be in top form at present. Twice went very close in May but his form has gone the wrong way subsequently.
2	4 2nd (4) (14/1 +0%) Bay Of Naples		14 14/1(+0%)																															(4) Bay Of Naples 14/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap (10/1) at Leicester (11.8f, good) 39 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not dismissed. In and out this year but has finished second on three of his last six starts.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 +33%) Mac Ailey		5 5/1(+33%)																															(6) Mac Ailey 5/1, Latest win at Ayr in July. Creditable second of 8 in handicap (17/2) at this C&D (good to soft) 9 days ago, clear of rest. One to consider. Won at Ayr last month and good second over this C&D nine days ago; likely player.
4	2 4th (2) (16/1 -14%) Jewel Of Kabeir		16 16/1(-14%)																															(2) Jewel Of Kabeir 16/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap (17/2) at Musselburgh (9f, good) 17 days ago. Unlikely to feature. Made it 0-10 when disappointing last time but in good form previously and not written off.
5th	13 5th (13) (33/1 +0%) Thomas Cranmer		33 33/1(+0%)																															(13) Thomas Cranmer 33/1, C&D winner. Thirty runs since last win in 2018. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good, 33/1) 19 days ago. Doesn't make much appeal. Has dropped to basement mark but this 9yo is without a win since 2018; others appeal more.
6th	7 6th (7) (14/1 +0%) Kells		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) Kells 14/1, Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, soft, 11/1) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. His mark continues to fall but unable to get competitive on his three runs this summer.
7th	9 7th (9) (2.25/1 +18%) Cryptos Dream		2.25 2.25/1(+18%)																															(9) Cryptos Dream 2.25/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good, 10/3) 7 days ago. Unexposed for this yard and impressive last time, so worth a chance to defy a penalty. Comfortable win at Brighton on second stable start and strong claims under 5lb penalty.
8th	3 8th (3) (22/1 -120%) Calcutta Dream		22 22/1(-120%)																															(3) Calcutta Dream 22/1, 11/4, seventh of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, good) 13 days ago, missing break. Usually reliable, so he's likely to get back on track. Below-par favourite at Lingfield a fortnight ago but good second at Yarmouth previously.
9th	12 9th (12) (5/1 +38%) Mr Heinz		5 5/1(+38%)																															(12) Mr Heinz 5/1, Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap (6/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good to soft) 41 days ago. Blinkers back on. Yet to fully convince with his stamina over this distance. In good form at about 1m before fading over 1m2f latest, but back on better ground here.
10th	1 10th (1) (7.5/1 -67%) Dr Rio		7.5 7.5/1(-67%)																															(1) Dr Rio 7.5/1, Latest win at Beverley in July. Creditable second of 11 in handicap (7/2) at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Hood back on. In good form over 7.4f at Beverley of late and has won over 1m2f there; respected.
11th	14 11th (14) (33/1 +0%) Skedaddled		33 33/1(+0%)																															(14) Skedaddled 33/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, good to firm, 20/1) 17 days ago. Others have achieved more. Two fair efforts earlier this season but down the field the last twice and is now 0-19.
12th	15 12th (15) (50/1 -52%) Knights Spear		50 50/1(-52%)																															(15) Knights Spear 50/1, 11/1, respectable third of 8 in handicap at this course (12f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Difficult ask. 3yo is 0-10 and has shown only very modest form.
13th	8 13th (8) (12/1 -9%) Coconut Bay		12 12/1(-9%)																															(8) Coconut Bay 12/1, 11/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 13 days ago. Might strip fitter for latest effort and she's on a handy mark. Things didn't go her way on AW last time and she's well treated on form as recent as May.

Despite not looking entirely at home on the idiosyncrasies of Brighton, CRYPTOS DREAM ran out facile winner over this trip a week ago and the decision to turn her out again quickly under a 5lb penalty looks a wise move. Dr Rio only found one too good when bidding for a double over the extended 7f at Beverley off this mark and he should give it a good go under top weight, while a recent silver medal over C&D off 3lb lower brings Mac Ailey into the equation.

CRYPTOS DREAM isn't long with her current yard and she cleared away in taking style at Brighton a week ago, so she's worth a chance to go in again. Dr Rio arrives in top form and looks an obvious danger, while another solid showing from Mac Ailey is on the cards.

Clear preference is for CRYPTOS DREAM (nap), who won with something to spare at Brighton last Monday and can defy a 5lb penalty.

1	6 1st (6) (6/1 +45%) Kimifive		6 6/1(+45%)																															(6) Kimifive 6/1, His only win since 2019 came over 7f here a year ago. Hasn't obviously been shaping as if his turn is near this summer but he is down to only 1lb above that winning mark.
2	7 2nd (7) (11/1 -38%) Hi Clare		11 11/1(-38%)																															(7) Hi Clare 11/1, Won at Pontefract (1m) in June and good second at Bath next time. Last 2 efforts not so good, although this is easier than the Goodwood Class 3 she contested last time.
3	9 3rd (9) (10/1 -100%) Otago		10 10/1(-100%)																															(9) Otago 10/1, Won at Brighton (7f) in April. Creditable third of 13 back at Brighton (1m, good) 19 days ago, nearest finish.
4	4 4th (4) (6/1 -9%) Bobby Dassler		6 6/1(-9%)																															(4) Bobby Dassler 6/1, Won at Nottingham in May and also a good second over C&D in July. Possibly unsuited by very testing ground when only fifth back at Nottingham latest. Enters calculations under Hollie Doyle.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 +44%) English Spirit		5 5/1(+44%)																															(3) English Spirit 5/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. Back to form when fourth of 13 at Brighton (1m) last time. Oisin Muphy takes the ride and his yard is among the winners so there are reasons to be positive about his prospects.
6th	1 6th (1) (2.75/1 +8%) Bowland Park		2.75 2.75/1(+8%)																															(1) Bowland Park 2.75/1, C&D winner earlier in his career who has been placed on both outings this season. Prominent showing on the cards.
7th	2 7th (2) (16/1 -100%) Trais Fluors		16 16/1(-100%)																															(2) Trais Fluors 16/1, Back to winning ways at Goodwood (9f) in June. Hasn't helped himself with slow starts when running respectable races in defeat on both outings since.
8th	8 8th (8) (4.5/1 +10%) Desfondado		4.5 4.5/1(+10%)																															(8) Desfondado 4.5/1, Got a race run to suit and stepped up considerably to run out a ready winner over C&D last month. Not in the same form when only fifth back here since.
9th	10 9th (10) (80/1 -567%) Deceit		80 80/1(-567%)																															(10) Deceit 80/1, Won in Ireland for Johnny Murtagh last summer but down the field in 2 outings for current yard just under a year apart. Could only consider if backed.
10th	5 10th (5) (22/1 -38%) Dutch Kingdom		22 22/1(-38%)																															(5) Dutch Kingdom 22/1, Won on AW handicap debut at Kempton in March but has found life tougher on the turf since. Now below that winning mark but needs to stage a revival.

LTO Selection:

OTAGO displayed plenty of promise when a close third over a mile at Brighton last time and he could be hard to beat off the same mark here. That said, Bowland Park has made the frame in both starts this season and could give the selection plenty to think about. English Spirit edges out Kimifive and Trais Fluors to be best of the rest.

BOWLAND PARK is quite a classy sort for this level and can resume winning ways at a venue where he's tasted success before. Second choice is Bobby Dassler who had heavy ground as an excuse last time and had run well here prior to that. Heather Main's English Spirit also makes the shortlist.

The vote goes to BOWLAND PARK (nap), a C&D winner who returns to Epsom off a workable mark. English Spirit is second choice.

1	11 1st (11) (16/1 +20%) Padraic's Choice		16 16/1(+20%)																															(11) Padraic's Choice 16/1, Poor maiden. Unseated rider in handicap chase at Tramore (22.2f, heavy, 18/1) 7 months ago. Showed some ability over hurdles, chase form is very weak and he lacks a recent outing.
2	10 2nd (10) (14/1 -56%) Nabraska		14 14/1(-56%)																															(10) Nabraska 14/1, Winning pointer, well beaten only start over hurdles, poor maiden handicap chaser. Off 6 months. Work to do. Beaten around 5l when third in this race last year, took same place here last September.
3	2 3rd (2) (2/1 +43%) Brehon Star		2 2/1(+43%)																															(2) Brehon Star 2/1, 11/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, career best when winning 11-runner handicap chase at Tramore (15.7f, soft) on debut over fences for new trainer 8 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Lesssaidthebetter. Up 8 lb and good chance in follow-up bid. Made a good start over fences when beating Lesssaidthebetter at Tramore, may follow up now.
4	9 4th (9) (7/1 -133%) Lesssaidthebetter		7 7/1(-133%)																															(9) Lesssaidthebetter 7/1, Ninth of 13 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) 7 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Blinkers on 1st time. 0-24 hurdles, 0-9 chasing, blinkers may help bid to reverse Tramore form with Brehon Star.
5th	4 5th (4) (20/1 -67%) Shean Glory		20 20/1(-67%)																															(4) Shean Glory 20/1, Modest winner at 19f over hurdles. Fell in handicap chase at Tramore (21.6f, heavy, 10/1) 10 days ago. Modest strike rate hurdling (2-32), has failed to complete two of her three chase starts.
6th	8 6th (8) (10/1 -150%) Seskin Flyer		10 10/1(-150%)																															(8) Seskin Flyer 10/1, Latest win in chase at Kilbeggan in July. Ninth of 13 in handicap chase at Roscommon (21.3f, soft, 15/2) 20 days ago. Ended a long losing sequence at Kilbeggan, failed to reproduce that form at Roscommon.
7th	3 7th (3) (50/1 -100%) Deo Bellator		50 50/1(-100%)																															(3) Deo Bellator 50/1, Modest winner at 24f over hurdles. 66/1, last of 4 in minor event chase at Wexford (19.8f, good to soft) 69 days ago. Long-priced 3m handicap hurdle winner last year struggling this season, makes no appeal.
8th	5 8th (5) (50/1 -150%) Caridadi		50 50/1(-150%)																															(5) Caridadi 50/1, 20/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (19f, soft) on return 38 days ago won by Seskin Flyer, saddle slipping and pulled up quickly. Saddle slipped in Kilbeggan race won by Seskin Flyer, ended last season with a good run.
9th	1 9th (1) (1.75/1 +47%) I Am Spider Man		1.75 1.75/1(+47%)																															(1) I Am Spider Man 1.75/1, 11/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (21f, heavy) 10 days ago. Makes chase debut and one to note. Recent handicap hurdle second at Tramore provides encouragement for chance on chase debut.
7	7 |U| (7) (8/1 +60%) Monoxide		8 8/1(+60%)																															(7) Monoxide 8/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Perth (23.9f, good, 22/1) 9 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Blinkers back on. Could figure. Creditable second over C&D in June, unplaced in seven starts in a busy spell since then.
6	6 |PU| (6) (33/1 -32%) Copia Verborum		33 33/1(-32%)																															(6) Copia Verborum 33/1, Eleventh of 13 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at this course (17.3f, good) 15 days ago. Makes chase debut. Has run creditably at this track on occasion, otherwise not much going for him.

LTO Selection:

I AM SPIDERMAN failed to complete on his first two starts for new connections but showed what he is capable of when runner-up at Tramore last time. Surely it is significant that Charles Byrnes wastes no time in sending the six-year-old straight over fences on the back of that run. Off a similar mark here, the Walk In The Park gelding must enter calculations. Lesssaidthebetter may be able to overturn recent Tramore running with Brehon Star on these revised terms. The Philip Rothwell-trained nine-year-old also wears blinkers for the first time so that aid may also help. The aforementioned Brehon Star was making his debut for trainer Ian Donoghue when successful at Tramore, so may well have further improvement in him on just his second start for the stable.

Poor stuff and BREHON STAR can follow up his Tramore victory. I Am Spider Man is interesting on his chase debut, while Monoxide could also go well.

There should be more to come from BREHON STAR who was making his chasing debut when beating Lesssaidthebetter at Tramore

3	7 3rd (7) (3.33/1 +76%) Lupset Flossy Pop		3.33 3.33/1(+76%)																															(7) Lupset Flossy Pop 3.33/1, 33/1, fared better than of late when fifth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 25 days ago. Needs considering. On dangerous mark and she showed signs of a revival at Newcastle last time; in the mix.
4	9 4th (9) (22/1 -57%) Lady Gazelle		22 22/1(-57%)																															(9) Lady Gazelle 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, fourth of 6 in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good, 33/1) 19 days ago. Needs to step forward on her handicap debut. Unexposed filly and she needs watching in market on handicap debut.
5th	6 5th (6) (16/1 +0%) Little Man		16 16/1(+0%)																															(6) Little Man 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 33/1) 13 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Still lightly raced but he needs a transformation on this drop back to 6f; blinkers added.
6th	14 6th (14) (16/1 +36%) Dresden Green		16 16/1(+36%)																															(14) Dresden Green 16/1, Ninth of 13 in handicap (28/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 13 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Very hard to make a case for. 13-race maiden and he needs a major turnaround with blinkers added.
7th	3 7th (3) (8/1 +43%) Guest List		8 8/1(+43%)																															(3) Guest List 8/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Eleventh of 13 in handicap (10/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 13 days ago. Every chance if back to best. Won a 2yo maiden in 2021 but she's 0-15 since and has form figures of 969560 this year.
8th	13 8th (13) (40/1 -100%) Quanah		40 40/1(-100%)																															(13) Quanah 40/1, Posted his best effort of the season when fourth of 8 in minor event (17/2) at this C&D 8 days ago. Eleven runs since last win in 2022, though. Last success was 15 months ago and has been well held in his four runs this year.

Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Defied this mark on Tapeta in May but he's been generally disappointing since; risky.
10th	8 10th (8) (8.5/1 +15%) Irish Dessert		8.5 8.5/1(+15%)																															(8) Irish Dessert 8.5/1, Hampered under 2f out when fifth of 9 in handicap (11/4) at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago.

Well held at big prices in all five runs and has plenty to prove; first-time blinkers.

Deputise had Blackcurrent (third) behind when he landed a classified event over C&D recently but he is 8lb worse off with that rival this time, so the latter has solid clams of reversing that form. However, the vote goes to LUPSET FLOSSY POP, who produced her best effort so far this year when fifth last time at Newcastle, where she was short of room when making her move late on. The three-year-old was kindly dropped 1lb for that display and she could go close.

DEPUTISE ended a losing run in taking style over C&D last week and a 4 lb penalty might not be sufficient to prevent Michael Wigham's 7-y-o from a quick follow up. C&D scorer Blackcurrent came in third that day and again looks set for a place, with Irish Dessert and Bomb Squad completing the shortlist.

It might be worth siding with LUPSET FLOSSY POP, who is on a dangerous mark and showed signs of a revival at Newcastle last time.

The admirable CHARLIE LUCIANO could go in again after a break since mid-July. Noel Meade's charge proved tough to pass when winning at Downpatrick and Bellewstown over the summer before filling the runner-up berth in another Downpatrick contest. Neil Ryan takes 7lb off his back and that could be important as Charlie Luciano is closely matched with Gordon Elliott's Samui who sandwiched a victory in Tramore with runner-up spots at Tipperary and Galway. Luminous Light won a maiden hurdle at Cork in April and holds third-placed Calico on that run. He has been placed in a couple of Flat races since then and has plenty to offer.

Gordon Elliot's SAMUI looks on a good mark for this handicap debut and can strike under Jack Kennedy. Luminous Light has run 2 crackers on the Flat since his Cork maiden hurdle success and is second choice ahead of the selection's stablemate Jay Jay Zee.

A decent handicap but SAMUI (nap) could be better than this level and he can boost the form of Mystical Power's Galway race.

Off 9 months. Hood on first time. Latest effort (handicap debut) last November suggests he'll need some improvement..
4	6 4th (6) (11/1 -10%) Major Gatsby		11 11/1(-10%)																															(6) Major Gatsby 11/1, Below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm, 10/3) 33 days ago. Back down in trip. Competitive mark but unable to take advantage of that in recent starts; more needed..

Musical Mystery made a successful debut for the Ed Dunlop yard at Lingfield 13 days ago and dropping back a furlong should be fine if he copes with the 4lb rise. Contrastingly, Hastily is back up in distance after his 5f triumph here last week and may well bush aside the 5lb penalty. However, the in-form DANDYS DERRIERE shades preference from a attractive mark and he holds another live chance back on turf.

MUSICAL MSYTERY made a winning start for the Ed Dunlop yard at Lingfield a couple of weeks ago and might be able to follow up off 4 lb higher. Dandys Derriere really has found form in the second half of the summer and is feared most ahead of Thursday's course scorer Hastily.

1	1 1st (1) (1.38/1 +15%) Dogged		1.38 1.38/1(+15%)																															(1) Dogged 1.38/1, Course winner. 3 wins from 7 runs this year. Latest win at Beverley in August. 7/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good) 19 days ago. Enjoying a productive campaign and no surprise if he gets back to winning ways. Good third at Pontefract last time when bidding for a hat-trick and he's one to consider.
2	2 2nd (2) (3/1 -9%) Billy Roberts		3 3/1(-9%)																															(2) Billy Roberts 3/1, Course winner. 9/2, fourth of 5 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Now below last winning mark and can't be ruled out. Two good seconds this season on soft ground; below par on good going last time.
3	3 3rd (3) (2.75/1 -83%) Little Ted		2.75 2.75/1(-83%)																															(3) Little Ted 2.75/1, Unreliable sort. 10/3, improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at this course (9.8f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Obvious claims if he turns up in the same mood. Won here nine days ago, which was his third course victory; strong claims up 5lb.
4	5 4th (5) (10/1 +50%) Peroni		10 10/1(+50%)																															(5) Peroni 10/1, First run since leaving Gay Kelleway when respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft, 25/1) 13 days ago. Hard to make a case for. Lightly raced 5yo who finished mid-division on recent stable debut; hard to be confident.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 +64%) Loom Large		10 10/1(+64%)																															(4) Loom Large 10/1, Pulled up in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, soft, 28/1) 37 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Becoming well handicapped but has a lot to prove at present. Won at Naas last August but has struggled this summer following a change of stables.

LTO Selection:

A big run from Mac Alley in the 4.45 here today would boost the claims of LITTLE TED, who had that rival back in second when recording a third C&D victory in style nine days ago and Tim Easterby looks to have found his in-form gelding a good opportunity to defy a 5lb rise. The main threat appears to be Dogged, who was far from disgraced in third when bidding for a 1m2f hat-trick at Pontefract and has been dropped 1lb for that effort. Billy Roberts can pick up the bronze medal.

DOGGED is a likeable type who might well get his own way on the front end, so he's a confident choice in a thin race. Recent course winner Little Ted is an obvious danger and Billy Roberts is becoming well treated.

Dogged arrives in good form but so does LITTLE TED, who is taken to post his fourth course win having scored here last time.

1	3 1st (3) (1.75/1 +30%) Capital Guarantee		1.75 1.75/1(+30%)																															(3) Capital Guarantee 1.75/1, Two from 2 for new yard, landing 7f 3-y-o Musselburgh maiden and Thirsk handicap. Still looked a little raw last time but he knuckled down well and big shout in hat-trick bid with Oisin Murphy booked. 2-2 for new stable and could well improve further; respected.
2	1 2nd (1) (6/1 +50%) Larado		6 6/1(+50%)																															(1) Larado 6/1, Won the second race on this card last year and well handicapped if reviving after 2 poor runs this month. 2-4 at Epsom, including a win off 4lb higher on this card last year.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/1 -13%) La Maquina		9 9/1(-13%)																															(4) La Maquina 9/1, Multiple 7f winner who has offered a fair bit for new yard this term and lurks on a tempting mark. 0-4 for new yard this season; others are more appealing.
4	5 4th (5) (7/1 -56%) Shoot To Kill		7 7/1(-56%)																															(5) Shoot To Kill 7/1, Ended losing run in 1m Brighton handicap (40/1) 3 weeks ago. Couple of winners in behind and not handicapped out of things after 3 lb rise. Not sure to back up the form of his 40-1 win at Brighton.
5th	2 5th (2) (2.25/1 +10%) Desert Falcon		2.25 2.25/1(+10%)																															(2) Desert Falcon 2.25/1, Progressive, winning 7f Lingfield maiden and 6f Chepstow handicap before a fine run in 7f AW handicap at the former venue, likely to have pushed the winner closer had he applied himself better. Fitting of cheekpieces looks a good move and he's respected up 2 lb. Prescott 3yo who is still open to further progress; 2-2 on turf; major contender.
5th	6 5th (6) (12/1 -33%) Secret Strength		12 12/1(-33%)																															(6) Secret Strength 12/1, Struck at Newbury (7f) in June and back to form when third at Lingfield last time. This is tougher. Back up in grade; more exposed than some of these rivals.
7th	9 7th (9) (40/1 -60%) La Rav		40 40/1(-60%)																															(9) La Rav 40/1, Won 1m Lingfield AW handicap in November but form patchy since, held over further here 7 weeks ago. Others preferred. Just one success on turf since 2017; others preferred.

LTO Selection:

Capital Guarantee has to be of interest in his bid for a hat-trick, but the three-year-old will need to find more to defy a career-high mark, while similar comments apply to the in-form Desert Falcon. With that in mind, preference is for SECRET STRENGTH, who is only 1lb higher than when scoring at Newbury in June and he caught the eye when third at Lingfield last time.

Three-year-olds DESERT FALCON and Capital Guarantee make the most appeal. Cheekpieces are likely to bring about more improvement from Sir Mark Prescott's progressive charge and he gets the narrow vote over his hat-trick seeking rival. La Maquina and Larado, the latter a winner on this card last year, lurk on tempting marks and could go well.

This race may be fought out by the improving 3yos DESERT FALCON and Capital Guarantee, in that order.

This is easier and he can go well. Twice runner-up over fences; should come on from Wexford fifth after four months off.
2	9 2nd (9) (6/1 -33%) Berliet Express		6 6/1(-33%)																															(9) Berliet Express 6/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 16/5, good fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Wexford (16f, heavy) 17 days ago. Maiden over fences but has been performing well this year; up in grade and may struggle.

Switches from hurdles to chase. Jumped poorly on chase debut under this inexperienced pilot at Roscommon; stiff task.
4	7 4th (7) (3.33/1 +26%) Golden Sandbanks		3.33 3.33/1(+26%)																															(7) Golden Sandbanks 3.33/1, 15/2, career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Can go well again over fences. Won first two chase starts last year and back to form over hurdles at Sligo; respected.
5th	4 5th (4) (20/1 -43%) Samurai Cracker		20 20/1(-43%)																															(4) Samurai Cracker 20/1, Third of 4 in handicap chase (11/1) at Perth (20.1f, good to soft) 27 days ago, going in snatches. Former useful hunter not been at his best for some time; soundly beaten at Perth latest.
6th	2 6th (2) (10/1 +0%) Flaming Moon		10 10/1(+0%)																															(2) Flaming Moon 10/1, Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. 22/1, ninth of 11 in novice chase at Wexford (19.8f, heavy) 17 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut. Should have more to offer. Decent on the Flat and won a Listed novice hurdle at Galway last year; handicap debut.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -14%) Play The Game		16 16/1(-14%)																															(1) Play The Game 16/1, Fairly useful chaser. 28/1, last of 6 in minor event hurdle at this course (17.3f, good) on return 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Winner on chase debut in 2020 but ran only once more over fences; fitter for return here.
6	6 |F| (6) (5/1 -11%) Top Line Tommy		5 5/1(-11%)																															(6) Top Line Tommy 5/1, Winner in chase at Tramore in June. Seventh of 11 in handicap chase (5/1) at Wexford (19.8f, heavy) 17 days ago, going with enthusiasm and jumping better. Lots to like in this company. Won over 2m5f at Tramore and second at Clonmel (2m) in June; too keen at Wexford last time.
5	5 |PU| (5) (4/1 +60%) Clonbury Bridge		4 4/1(+60%)																															(5) Clonbury Bridge 4/1, Course winner. Twelfth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft, 22/1) 28 days ago. Interesting back here. Won beginners chase here last autumn and second in Naas handicap; fitter for Galway return.

LTO Selection:

The Paul Flynn-trained GOLDEN SANDBANKS has every chance of following up his recent hurdles win at Sligo. Although rated slightly higher back over fences, the six-year-old arrives here at the top of his game and gets on particularly well with jockey Sean Flanagan. In a race lacking any real strength in depth, the gelding can double up. Flaming Moon was well beaten at Tramore on his second start over fences but could be a different proposition now entering handicap company for the first time. The Matthew Smith-trained gelding is rated 6lb lower at this discipline, so if he can adapt then he will go very close. Clonbury Bridge cannot be ruled out returning to the scene of his only career win over fences. A recent run over flights at Galway should have brought him on.

TOP LINE TOMMY jumped a lot better at Wexford last time and could be the way to go ahead of Irish Blaze and Golden Sandbanks.

In the hope that he returns to the best of last year's chase form which included a win at this venue, CLONBURY BRIDGE is selected

1	12 1st (12) (4.5/1 +50%) Fox Flame		4.5 4.5/1(+50%)																															(12) Fox Flame 4.5/1, Visored for 1st time, very good fourth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Beverley (16.2f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Back down in trip. Looks competitive on form with headgear retained. Seems most potent on AW and has possibilities back at 1m4f in this sphere.
2	10 2nd (10) (12/1 -20%) Kehlani		12 12/1(-20%)																															(10) Kehlani 12/1, Winner at Brighton in May. 17/2, good sixth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 14 days ago, left poorly placed. Makes tapeta debut. Cheekpieces on 1st time. In the picture. Unexposed filly and she looks interesting with cheekpieces added at this new trip.
3	8 3rd (8) (7.5/1 +46%) Spring Glow		7.5 7.5/1(+46%)																															(8) Spring Glow 7.5/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (14.1f, good, 9/1) 27 days ago, unsuited by step up in trip. Not discounted back over 1m4f now. Her last win was in 2021 and has not made an impact for new yard this season.
4	11 4th (11) (50/1 -257%) Doublethetrouble		50 50/1(-257%)																															(11) Doublethetrouble 50/1, First run since leaving Lucy Wadham when seventh of 9 in handicap (40/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good) 30 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and he's no forlorn hope if building on that effort. 18-race maiden who struggled on his stable debut at Windsor last month; down the list.
5th	1 5th (1) (7/1 -133%) Let Her Loose		7 7/1(-133%)																															(1) Let Her Loose 7/1, Course winner who readily completed her hat-trick in 11-runner handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good) 7 days ago. Expected to be bang there under a 5 lb penalty. Four wins this summer and is only 2lb higher under penalty for latest success; big player.
6th	14 6th (14) (25/1 +0%) Toscan Genius		25 25/1(+0%)																															(14) Toscan Genius 25/1, Off 27 months/first run since leaving Ivan Furtado when considerately-handled fifth of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good, 28/1) 19 days ago. Up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. One to consider. Seven-race maiden who has yet to be placed and needs to do much better back up in trip.
7th	2 7th (2) (4.5/1 -13%) Typical Woman		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(2) Typical Woman 4.5/1, Landed 10-runner handicap (6/4) at Haydock (11.6f, good to firm) 53 days ago, always holding on. Cheekpieces back on and well in the mix. Won at Haydock last time and she's still unexposed on AW; in the mix.
8th	4 8th (4) (20/1 -100%) Benadalid		20 20/1(-100%)																															(4) Benadalid 20/1, 18/1, good third of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, heavy) 23 days. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. On long losing losing but he's been consistent this season and should be in the mix again.
9th	6 9th (6) (9/1 -29%) Hooflepuff		9 9/1(-29%)																															(6) Hooflepuff 9/1, 9/1, won 11-runner handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 13 days ago, holding on gamely. Needs considering. Tapeta specialist who scored at Newcastle last time and is respected back up in trip.
10th	7 10th (7) (25/1 -25%) The Bay Warrior		25 25/1(-25%)																															(7) The Bay Warrior 25/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in March. Tenth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 40/1) 34 days ago. Up in trip with more needed. Has lost his way since his last win in March and has questions to answer back up in trip.
11th	5 11th (5) (25/1 -56%) Clansman		25 25/1(-56%)																															(5) Clansman 25/1, Latest win at Doncaster in April. Last of 10 in handicap (28/1) at York (16.2f, good) 30 days ago. Back down in trip. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. On workable mark but he's a mercurial type who comes with risks attached.
12th	9 12th (9) (100/1 -300%) Tigerten		100 100/1(-300%)																															(9) Tigerten 100/1, Latest win at Salisbury in May. Last of 6 in handicap (22/1) at Leicester (11.8f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Others appeal more. On last winning mark but he's finished out the back over this trip in last two starts.
13th	3 13th (3) (3/1 +25%) Down To The Kid		3 3/1(+25%)																															(3) Down To The Kid 3/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in March. Respectable third of 10 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 11/1) 61 days ago, barely adequate test. Can make presence felt. All three wins have come over C&D and this in-form 4yo is a key player back at this track.

Tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Charlie Johnston when tenth of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm, 50/1) 12 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Has struggled in his last two runs and has plenty to prove at this new trip.

LET HER LOOSE is in the form of her life and she arrives on a four-timer after her comfortable success at Catterick last Monday. The daughter of Mukhadram is going from strength to strength at present and she struck at this track last year, so she looks to have lots in her favour again under a 5lb penalty. Typical Woman could give her something to think about after she went in by half a length at Haydock last time and she is only 4lb higher in the ratings now. Benadalid completes the shortlist.

LET HER LOOSE is flourishing at the age of six and hard to side against in her four-timer bid on the back of her facile Catterick success a week ago. Kehlani didn't enjoy the rub of the green when a good sixth at Kempton last time so could give Archie Watson's mare most to do. Fox Flame, Down To The Kid and Hooflepuff all warrant plenty of respect too in a competitive handicap.

The vote goes to LET HER LOOSE, who has won four of her last five starts and is only 2lb higher under a penalty for her win last week.

4	3 4th (3) (20/1 -25%) Bless The Moon		20 20/1(-25%)																															(3) Bless The Moon 20/1, Sea Moon mare. Dam (c111/h129) 2m-3m hurdle winner, also 11.3f winner who stayed 2m on Flat. Dam 11.3f Flat (RPR 74) and useful 2m-3m hurdle winner; claimer ridden on debut.

Sixth of 17 in novice hurdle (20/1) at Cork (17f, good to soft) on NH debut 21 days ago. Up in trip. Signs were a tad more encouraging when sixth at Cork (2m1f) but she'll need more.
7th	6 7th (6) (100/1 +20%) Electric Dreamer		100 100/1(+20%)																															(6) Electric Dreamer 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, eleventh of 17 in novice hurdle at Cork (17f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Up in trip. Suffered some interference last time but has finished tailed off in both her maidens.

12th	14 12th (14) (33/1 -230%) Mermaids Cave		33 33/1(-230%)																															(14) Mermaids Cave 33/1, Once-raced maiden. 40/1, sixth of 11 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft) on NH debut 16 days ago.

Fourth of 10 in bumper at Sligo (18.2f, good to soft, 15/2) on bumper debut 18 days ago. Switches from bumpers to hurdles. Up in trip. Should improve. Positives to take from both her runs and respected now raised to 2m6f.

LTO Selection:

STRAIGHT HOME created a good impression with a decisive victory in a bumper at Cork in April and is one to take very seriously on hurdling debut. She graduated to the track with aplomb after landing a point-to-point in February. Hurricane Honey kept on for fourth in a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle this month and the step up in trip looks ideal on the back of that run. Sleep Sound has posted a third over hurdles at Kilbeggan and a fourth in a bumper at Sligo over the summer. Maiden hurdle winners have come out of that Kilbeggan contest. Hats Off Six Pence ran well for a long way before dropping to sixth on hurdle debut at Cork. Reserve Amazing Amy finished second in a handicap hurdle at Killarney on Saturday which would bring her into contention if getting a run.

Point winner STRAIGHT HOME looked potentially useful when landing a Cork bumper on her Rules debut in the spring and is taken to follow up now switched to hurdles on her return. Gordon Elliott's Hurricane Honey is second choice ahead of Sleep Sound.

The 6yo STRAIGHT HOME posted a decent RPR in winning her bumper at Cork and going up in trip for her hurdling debut is an obvious move.

RANGER BILLY is a consistent sort who could grab his second career success. His sole victory came over an extended 3m at Kilbeggan in June, and since then he has been placed twice in Limerick and Tramore. Richard Condon's 5lb claim has him on a handy mark. Storm Mahler returns off a break since April and has to be respected. He was in good form in March and April with a victory at Cork and two placed efforts as well. That's About Right didn't run badly in fourth in his first handicap hurdle at Limerick last month and could have more to offer. Walk In Time wasn't at her best when a beaten favourite in fourth at Killarney on Saturday and would have questions to answer if reappearing.

The one who appeals most is STORM MAHLER, who looked progressive during the spring and the form of his latest effort when third of 16 at Cork represents solid form in the context of this race. Ranger Billy has been in good form in recent months and looks sure to be thereabouts once more, while That's About Right stepped up on his maiden efforts when fourth on in a Limerick handicap and will also be a threat if able to build on that.

Top of the list is RANGER BILLY whose consistency ticks a big box and his latest effort at Tramore can be upgraded.

TULLYHOGUE FORT is a likeable stayer at this level and was a hurdles winner over 3m at last year's Listowel festival. He almost gained a second chase success at Roscommon earlier this month so comes into this in good shape. Glenmalure Lodge has been runner-up on five of her last six visits to Ballinrobe and heads west again for another attempt to gain an elusive victory. Her trainer could not be in better form. Sarah's Soldier stepped up on previous form when third in first-time blinkers here last month and that was in a slightly higher grade. She merits consideration along with Rewrite The Script who got a 5lb hike for running well in a maiden at the last meeting here.

TULLYHOGUE FORT has been in excellent form over fences and he's equally effective over hurdles, so he gets the nod returning to this sphere. Glenmalure is a big danger and Sarah's Soldier is worthy of considering following a good second here a month ago.

This is tricky. TULLYHOGUE FORT won't mind what the weather does and returns to hurdling off a fair mark after a near miss over fences.

Respectable fifth of 22 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, good to soft, 18/1) 26 days ago. Back down in trip and he's a key player. Grade 1-placed as a novice last season, creditable fifth in Galway Plate, good chance here.
2	5 2nd (5) (7.5/1 +17%) Effernock Fizz		7.5 7.5/1(+17%)																															(5) Effernock Fizz 7.5/1, Useful chaser. Three wins from 15 runs last season. 25/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at the Curragh (12f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Switches from Flat to chase. Dangerous if allowed too much rope in front. Admirably versatile nine-time winner, has been struggling to establish consistency lately.

Obvious claims. Galway handicap chase fourth came only two days after a Flat run, big chance in theory.

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 11/1, below form fifth of 11 in handicap chase at Killarney (17f, good) 38 days ago. Would be meeting all of these rivals on significantly better terms if this were a handicap. Six-time chase winner is on a long losing run, others much better treated at these weights.

This looks a good spot for VISIONARIAN who was a creditable fifth in the Galway Plate last time. He didn't quite get home over 2m6f on that occasion but is a pacey sort who was placed at Grade 1 novice contests at Leopardstown and Aintree last season and dropping back to this trip around a sharp circuit will be no bother to him. The selection has to concede 10lb to Mt Leinster who is best in at the weights and performed well in valuable handicaps over this trip last year. His jumping has let him down on his last couple of starts over fences and he'll need to be sharper in that department around here. The Little Yank was well beaten at Killarney on Saturday but can contend for minor honours along with Effernock Fizz who wasn't far off Mt Leinster on the Flat at Galway.

This drop back in trip will help VISIONARIAN, who performed with credit in the Galway Plate last time, despite finding the 22.5f trip too stiff a test. He is an appealing alternative to likely favourite Mt Leinster, for all that, strictly speaking, he isn't entitled to beat that rival on these terms. Mt Leinster will be a big threat granted a clean round of jumping, while Effernock Fizz could give the aforementioned duo something to think about if allowed an easy lead.

The weights favour Mt Leinster to the tune of 8lb, but the Galway Plate fifth VISIONARIAN may be able to cope.

Having been with Joseph O'Brien and Gordon Elliott, SLIGE DALA is now under the care of Pat Foley and caught the eye when staying on well to be fifth over hurdles here earlier this month. Although his most recent chasing efforts have been poor, the bumper and hurdles winner did show ability in his first couple of starts in this discipline and a pair of cheekpieces might sharpen him up. Junior Rattler, second over hurdles at Sligo last time, was narrowly beaten on his most recent start over fences at Kilbeggan and has been giving the impression that this step up in trip will suit well. Takarengo, who twice ran well at Galway, is anything but a fluent jumper of hurdles but has been placed in three of his four outings over fences. He's a quirky sort but should be coming home well over this distance.

TAKARENGO can strike back chasing, with this longer trip sure to suit. Tempo Chapter Two and Bella Bliss are also on the shortlist.

A trappy chase with no outstanding contender. MISTY'S GIFT had some flashes of good form over hurdles despite his maiden status.

BABY KATE is the latest interesting bumper newcomer to roll off the Mullins conveyor belt and the daughter of Champs Elysees is likely to take plenty of beating. She's out of Augusta Kate who was unbeaten in three bumpers before going on to do well in staying hurdles and her grandam Feathard Lady was unbeaten in both bumpers before winning a Grade 1 over hurdles. Lady Masquerade made a pleasing debut when third in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last month. She's from a good family herself and has every chance of again being in the money. Smiling Bess is out of a smart dual-purpose mare and attracted market support when a promising third at Roscommon earlier this month.

BABY KATE represents a top yard and is out of a bumper winner, so she's a straightforward to make a successful start at the likely expense of Lady Masquerade who shaped with encouragement when third in a novice hurdle at Limerick last month. Smiling Bess is also considered.

The eyes are naturally drawn to BABY KATE, who looks the part on paper for the all-conquering Mullins team.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses.
