1st (3) (4/1 -45%) Hi Lord |
4/1(-45%) | (3) Hi Lord 4/1, Encouraging debut second of 7 in maiden at Hamilton (5f, good to soft, 11/1) 29 days ago. Well in the mix with more to come. Made a pleasing start when second at Hamilton last month.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (8/11 +20%) Farandaway |
8/11(+20%) | (2) Farandaway 8/11, Still looked green when a good second of 7 in maiden at Ayr (6f, good) 80 days ago. Gelded and can do better still, so the one to beat. Promising second on debut at Newcastle in August and at Ayr eight days later.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (11/4 +8%) Genius Mistake |
11/4(+8%) | (4) Genius Mistake 11/4, Thrice-raced filly. 8/1, good second of 8 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 8 days ago, running on. Can go well again. Has shown clear promise with two seconds over this trip and should run well.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (33/1 -106%) Sarabi |
33/1(-106%) | (5) Sarabi 33/1, 15/2, seventh of 8 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) on debut 8 days ago, slowly away. Needs to build on it. Slowly away and always behind on debut at Wolverhampton AW eight days ago.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
FARANDAWAY's second-placed finish behind Bob Mali at Ayr in August sets a decent standard and, assuming the son of Far Above has thrived at home since, he could be hard to beat with the ground conditions to suit. Hi Lord also showed promise when he filled the runner-up spot on his racecourse debut at Hamilton last month and, with improvement likely, he rates the chief threat to the selection. Genius Mistake completes the shortlist.
Grant Tuer's FARANDAWAY looked to have more to offer when runner-up at Ayr last time out so gets the vote in this fair juvenile maiden having been gelded since. Genius Mistake is next on the list on the back of her good Wolverhampton second, with Hi Lord not discounted either if, as expected, building on his debut Hamilton second.
Hi Lord made an encouraging debut when runner-up late last month and is second choice but FARANDAWAY is selected to break his duck.

1st (6) (28/1 +15%) Ninety Nine |
28/1(+15%) | (6) Ninety Nine 28/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 80/1) 30 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. She hasn't offered a great deal since joining this yard; cheekpieces now go on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (10/3 -67%) Kyber Crystal |
10/3(-67%) | (1) Kyber Crystal 10/3, Latest win at Hamilton in September. 3/1, good fifth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 25 days ago given she was awkward at the start. Has to be taken seriously. Won at Musselburgh in August and Hamilton last month; should not be far away.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (8/11 +55%) Fortunate Star |
8/11(+55%) | (2) Fortunate Star 8/11, C&D winner. 11/2, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, heavy) 13 days ago, clear of rest. Ought to be in the shake-up. 11lb lower than when successful over C&D in April; holds claims.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (15/2 -25%) Too Much Too Young |
15/2(-25%) | (3) Too Much Too Young 15/2, Course winner in August. 14/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 11 days ago so enters calculations. Made a successful debut for the yard at Catterick in August but held since; first 5f race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (11/1 -120%) Turn And Burn |
11/1(-120%) | (4) Turn And Burn 11/1, Winner at Lingfield in September but below forn since, fourth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 18 days ago. Needs to take a step forward. Made winning handicap debut at Lingfield last month off 3lb lower mark; below form since.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (14/1 +13%) Quanah |
14/1(+13%) | (5) Quanah 14/1, Twenty three runs since last win in 2022. 20/1, below-par fifth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, heavy) 20 days ago so others appeal more. On a losing run going back to May 2022 and no sign of that ending on recent starts.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
This could revolve around the top two in the handicap and while Kyber Crystal is a notably strong contender at this level these days, FORTUNATE STAR has more experience of the undulations of this course and shades preference given he is a previous C&D winner off an 11lb higher mark. Too Much Too Young also tends to go well here and could be the surprise package.
KYBER CRYSTAL arrives in good nick and rates just the pick of the weights so is fancied to resume winning ways. C&D scorer Fortunate Star is next on the list, with another course winner Too Much Too Young also worthy of consideration in this open handicap.
Preference is for KYBER CRYSTAL, who benefited from wind surgery in the summer. Fortunate Star rates the main danger.

1st (7) (11/4 +17%) King's Scholar |
11/4(+17%) | (7) King's Scholar 11/4, 13/2, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at York (10.2f, heavy) 17 days ago, slowly away. Can give a good account in his bid for a breakthrough victory. Again shaped as though this trip would suit in a deeper handicap at York last time; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (50/1 +24%) Ma Belle Artiste |
50/1(+24%) | (1) Ma Belle Artiste 50/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, last of 7 in handicap at Leicester (10f, heavy, 200/1) 21 days ago. Up in trip with work to do. Ex-Irish; finished tailed off at a huge price three weeks ago back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (7/1 -56%) Dreams Adozen |
7/1(-56%) | (3) Dreams Adozen 7/1, Below-par fifth of 8 in handicap at Epsom (12f, soft) 30 days ago. Visor refitted and the sort to bounce back. Hasn't been at her best the past twice and remains 3lb above her highest winning mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (5/2 -43%) Lennox |
5/2(-43%) | (5) Lennox 5/2, Got off the mark with a cosy win in 10-runner maiden at Southwell (11.1f) 33 days ago. Big shout back in handicap company with this longer trip a likely plus. Tapeta win will have boosted confidence and he's been found the right opening. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (9/2 +31%) Local Arms |
9/2(+31%) | (6) Local Arms 9/2, 40/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Can make her presence felt once more. Into rather calmer waters today; it will be interesting to see how she goes in the market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (50/1 -317%) Giselles Defence |
50/1(-317%) | (2) Giselles Defence 50/1, 3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Newbury in July. Last of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 40/1) 14 days ago. Needs considering back in this sphere. Easy 1m4f should be fine but he's lost his way under both codes lately; needs career best. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (15/2 +46%) Clansman |
15/2(+46%) | (4) Clansman 15/2, Latest win at Ripon in April. 25/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago. Holds good claims off a 2 lb lower mark here. Never won off a mark this high and has struggled in three runs back from a summer break. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
LENNOX had more in hand than the winning margin suggests when he emerged a cosy winner under a confident ride from this jockey at Southwell last month. Back on turf, this lightly-raced three-year-old appeals strongly. Local Arms takes a drop in class and is an attractive alternative to the selection on these terms. King's Scholar and Clansman command respect too.
LENNOX had a bit up his sleeve when scoring at Southwell and with this longer trip also a positive he looks the way to go. Clansman is weighted to have a big say and heads the list of dangers, with in-form duo King's Scholar and Local Arms also in the picture.
The stiffer test should suit King's Scholar but LENNOX, who delivered what he'd long promised on Tapeta last time, is given the nod.

1st (10) (13/2 +0%) Rwenearlytheredad |
13/2(+0%) | (10) Rwenearlytheredad 13/2, 15/8, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Ayr (8f, good) 19 days ago. Deserves to get his head back in front and likely to be in the mix here. Last win was at Musselburgh in August 2023 off 5lb higher mark; should go well.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (16/1 -113%) Beltane |
16/1(-113%) | (6) Beltane 16/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. 4/1 and visored for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago. Down another 1 lb and this 5-y-o, who was a good third to Homer Stokes here on his penultimate start, is one to consider. Two seconds this summer; on a career-low mark after failing to take to a visor last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (4/1 +11%) Homer Stokes |
4/1(+11%) | (3) Homer Stokes 4/1, Three-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year. Improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap (10/1) at this C&D (soft) 27 days ago, holding on gamely. Nudged up just 2 lb and should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick. Landed his third C&D win (soft) this month; must be considered again in his present form.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (9/2 +44%) Mister Sox |
9/2(+44%) | (2) Mister Sox 9/2, C&D winner. Latest win over 7f here in May. Below form fifth of 9 in handicap (9/4) at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago. Perhaps a shade too high in the weights for now. Both wins have come on slow ground at this track (7f/6f) and latest was in May.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (7/2 +75%) Catton Lady |
7/2(+75%) | (4) Catton Lady 7/2, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 9/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to soft) 24 days ago. No more than an each-way squeak. Hasn't won since her debut in June 2023 but has been placed five times this year.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (12/1 +0%) Showtime Mahomes |
12/1(+0%) | (1) Showtime Mahomes 12/1, Latest win at Musselburgh in August. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 28 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good once again. Back to winning ways at Musselburgh (7f, good) in August but slowly away on last two runs.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (15/2 +12%) Desert Dream |
15/2(+12%) | (9) Desert Dream 15/2, Three wins from 14 runs this year. 18/1, respectable second of 9 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago, no match for winner. Place possibilities at least off the same mark. Has three wins over C&D, the latest off 4lb lower mark last month; should run well.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (13/2 -30%) Sir Garfield |
13/2(-30%) | (5) Sir Garfield 13/2, C&D winner. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good, 16/5) 28 days ago, well positioned. Up a fair 2 lb and should again have a part to play. Scored over C&D in July and at Ayr four weeks ago.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (150/1 -1567%) Dandy Lichious |
150/1(-1567%) | (11) Dandy Lichious 150/1, 66/1, last of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm) 84 days ago, lost all chance at start. Best to look elsewhere. He's struggled badly in his five British starts.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (33/1 -50%) Langholm |
33/1(-50%) | (7) Langholm 33/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Thirsk in July. 18/1, 6¼ lengths seventh of 11 to Homer Stokes in handicap at this C&D (soft) 27 days ago. Not without each-way hope Dual C&D winner; moderate seventh behind Homer Stokes over C&D (soft) this month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (40/1 -82%) Treasure Storm |
40/1(-82%) | (8) Treasure Storm 40/1, Below form fourth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (7f, soft, 20/1) 11 days ago. Others make more appeal. Shaped better than the bare result when in the frame at Thirsk and Redcar recently.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SIR GARFIELD defeated a subsequent winner at Ayr at the beginning of the month and a 2lb rise looks more than fair. The three-year-old will have different conditions to contend with here, but having won on soft ground over C&D in July, he ought to go very close. Homer Stokes arrives in search of a hat-trick after notching up a brace of C&D successes and with the aid of Joe Leavy's 3lb claim in the plate, he can go well. Veteran Desert Dream is another to consider.
It's been a while since BELTANE last got his head in front but he's fallen a long way down the weights as a consequence (now 16 lb below last winning mark) and has a fighting chance of reversing C&D placings with Homer Stokes on these revised terms, having finished 1¾ lengths behind that rival on his penultimate start. Homer Stokes is bidding for the hat-trick and, armed with a willing attitude, he can be expected to give it a good shot. Rwenearlytheredad and Sir Garfield are others to consider.
This looks a tight handicap, with HOMER STOKES fancied to complete a C&D hat-trick at the main expense of Sir Garfield.

1st (7) (2/1 +56%) Tarbat Ness |
2/1(+56%) | (7) Tarbat Ness 2/1, Unreliable sort. One win from 27 Flat runs. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 10 in handicap at Bath (17.1f, heavy, 5/1) 19 days ago. May again find one or two too good. Second to Captain Potter over C&D this month and at Bath ten days later.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (66/1 -100%) Somebodycomegether |
66/1(-100%) | (3) Somebodycomegether 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 30 days ago. Significantly up in trip and now tried in cheekpieces. Four modest runs so far, latest when seventh on AW/handicap debut at Southwell last month.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (9/1 +44%) Bollin Neil |
9/1(+44%) | (6) Bollin Neil 9/1, C&D winner. Well-beaten eighth of 11 to Captain Potter in handicap (9/1) at this C&D (soft) 27 days ago, slowly away. Needs to bounce back in a major way. Well beaten in three starts since a lengthy absence; hard to fancy.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (10/11 +34%) Captain Potter |
10/11(+34%) | (2) Captain Potter 10/11, Improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap at this C&D (soft, 13/2) 27 days ago by 2¼ lengths from Tarbat Ness. Has to be taken seriously, with a 4 lb rise for that clear-cut success fair enough. Got off the mark on the Flat over C&D (soft) this month off 4lb lower mark.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (11/1 +21%) Malinka |
11/1(+21%) | (4) Malinka 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden on the Flat. Modest winner over hurdles. 11/2, last of 5 in juvenile hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Won juvenile hurdle in August and first start on Flat for current yard.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (25/1 -150%) Catrake Force |
25/1(-150%) | (5) Catrake Force 25/1, Last of 10 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f, 7/1) last time, dropping away quickly. Presumably wasn't 100% there and the fact that she is turned out again 19 days later suggests that all is well, and she would have a chance if reproducing the form of her improved Musselburgh third earlier this month. Eight-race maiden but shaped well when third on turf debut at Musselburgh this month.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (18/1 -350%) Bonne Vitesse |
18/1(-350%) | (1) Bonne Vitesse 18/1, 11/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Carlisle (17.2f, good to soft) by 2½ lengths from Tarbat Ness when last seen in May, responding well. 3 lb rise by no means the end of the world and she'll be a danger to all if ready to roll following a break. Landed her third win on the Flat at Carlisle in May off 3lb lower mark.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (40/1 +0%) Gold Ring |
40/1(+0%) | (8) Gold Ring 40/1, Course winner. 100/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (18f, heavy) 22 days ago. One to swerve at present. Modest and inconsistent sort who has been below par this year.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Lightly raced over staying trips on the Flat, CAPTAIN POTTER proved far too strong for the reopposing Tarbat Ness (second) over this C&D recently and is fancied to confirm his superiority despite a 4lb rise in the handicap. The latter, although difficult to win with, has been a model of consistency and looks set to claim more minor honours. The bigger threat may come from Bonne Vitesse, who also defeated Tarbat Ness at Carlisle in May.
CAPTAIN POTTER and Bonne Vitesse are very closely matched having both beaten the re-opposing Tarbat Ness by similar margins and on similar terms last time out. Preference is for Brian Ellison's charge, who gained his verdict over Tarbat Ness in a C&D handicap earlier this month and will likely hold a fitness edge over Bonne Vitesse, who has been absent since the spring. Catrake Force failed to fire last time but is probably worth another chance and she is third choice.
This looks pretty weak and CAPTAIN POTTER (nap) may well be able to defy a 4lb rise. Old rival Tarbat Ness is next best.

1st (2) (6/1 -9%) Count D'orsay |
6/1(-9%) | (2) Count D'orsay 6/1, 3 wins from 18 runs this year. 12/1, won 11-runner handicap at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago by head from Broken Spear, keeping on gamely. Major player. Grabbing the stand rail over C&D latest would have helped; will need a bit more upped 2lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (11/1 -38%) Jungle Land |
11/1(-38%) | (3) Jungle Land 11/1, Winner at Redcar in May. 22/1, respectable third of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, heavy) 10 days ago. Looks vulnerable for win purposes. More from the front here last time without seeing out 7f, having been pestered; claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (40/1 -233%) Game Breaker |
40/1(-233%) | (5) Game Breaker 40/1, Latest win at Hamilton in September. Below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, heavy, 9/1) 22 days ago. Probably a shade too high in the weights for now. Has her conditions again but now has to prove this mark is within range. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (13/2 -8%) Rough Diamond |
13/2(-8%) | (6) Rough Diamond 13/2, 8/1, creditable ¾-length fourth of 11 to Count d'Orsay in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago. Unlikely to be far away but will probably come up short for win purposes once more. Again gave his running behind Count D'Orsay over C&D last time; should go well once more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (9/1 -29%) Princess Alex |
9/1(-29%) | (7) Princess Alex 9/1, Creditable third of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to soft, 9/1) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and solid each-way chance eased slightly in class off a 1 lb lower mark. Other pace in here and a lot may hinge on how she gets away in first-time headgear. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (4/1 +78%) Broken Spear |
4/1(+78%) | (8) Broken Spear 4/1, Unreliable type. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 25/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, soft) 3 days ago. Visor back on and he's a risky betting proposition. Veteran who does a lot of racing now over 7f and lacks consistency; each-way shout. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (13/2 +0%) Knicks |
13/2(+0%) | (9) Knicks 13/2, Creditable third of 8 in handicap (8/1) at Nottingham (5f, heavy) 5 days ago. Runner-up over C&D on sole previous visit here in April and he's in with an each-way shout. Bounced back of late, finding the drop to 5f against him last Thursday; needs considering. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (7/4 +47%) Hour By Hour |
7/4(+47%) | (1) Hour By Hour 7/4, Three wins from 10 runs this year. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Haydock (6f, heavy, 7/2) 11 days ago, driven out. Shortlist material. Enjoying a productive spell on soft/heavy going; nothing arrives in better form; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (12/1 -20%) General Assembly |
12/1(-20%) | (4) General Assembly 12/1, Winner at Nottingham in May. Bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Yarmouth (6f, firm) 41 days ago. Others have achieved more. Held since handicapping for this, his third yard, but softer ground may help down 2lb. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
COUNT D'ORSAY has been revitalised over the last 12 months and, having edged out Broken Spear to score by a head here 10 days ago, the gelding's commendable attitude could be the key to him upholding the form to grant his trainer back-to-back wins in this race. Hour By Hour has already enjoyed an excellent season and is another to seriously consider.
Last-time-out winners HOUR BY HOUR and Count d'Orsay are the obvious starting points. The latter is a talented sprinter on his day and was game when edging out Broken Spear over C&D recently but it's been something of an up-and-down campaign for the 8-y-o. Conversely, Hour By Hour has, save for a below-par display at Pontefract in July (too free that day), barely put a foot wrong this season and his latest success at Haydock was his best performance yet. Princess Alex makes each-way appeal.
Knicks has claims but HOUR BY HOUR has been in flying form on similar ground this autumn and is tipped to defy a further 6lb rise.

1st (2) (3/1 -9%) Crocodile Power |
3/1(-9%) | (2) Crocodile Power 3/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in September. 4/1, good fourth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 26 days ago. Clearly likes it here and conditions won't be an issue, so he's high on the shortlist. 2-2 over C&D; things didn't pan out his way on Polytrack last time; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (5/1 +29%) White Umbrella |
5/1(+29%) | (1) White Umbrella 5/1, C&D winner. 4/1 and blinkered for 1st time, sixth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 21 days ago, never nearer. Cheekpieces back on and needs to bounce back. C&D win last October came on good going off 7lb lower; handles this ground; considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (28/1 +15%) Blue Jay Way |
28/1(+15%) | (12) Blue Jay Way 28/1, Fourth of 6 in novice (80/1) at this C&D (heavy) 10 days ago and record now stands at 0-14. Ran above himself in a C&D novice latest; will again be doing very well to make the frame. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (7/2 +50%) Canaria Queen |
7/2(+50%) | (9) Canaria Queen 7/2, 12/1, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 22 days ago. Had shaped as though her turn was near when third at Ripon on penultimate start, so she's not discounted. Handicapper's giving her a chance (6lb lower than when winning in April); should go well. |

5th (3) (4/1 +27%) Happier |
4/1(+27%) | (3) Happier 4/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 18/1, respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Redcar (6f, soft) 11 days ago. Enters calculations. This ground is fine and she's drawn to attack off a career-low mark; should go well. |

6th (4) (6/1 +40%) Agnes Grey |
6/1(+40%) | (4) Agnes Grey 6/1, Winner at Carlisle in September. 18/1, below form sixth of 13 in handicap at Redcar (6f, soft) 11 days ago. Can make presence felt if on-song. Behind Happier last time and stall 12 isn't ideal for one happiest on the sharp end. |

7th (5) (18/1 -100%) So Grateful |
18/1(-100%) | (5) So Grateful 18/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. Tenth of 11 in handicap (10/1) at Nottingham (5f, heavy) 13 days ago. In good form prior to that but he's an infrequent winner and may again prove vulnerable. Has regressed this year and his record on this sort of ground would be patchy at best. |

8th (11) (20/1 -100%) Porfin |
20/1(-100%) | (11) Porfin 20/1, 7/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Brighton (6f, heavy) 12 days ago. Has edged down to an attractive mark but he's opposable from a win perspective nonetheless. Not as good now and hasn't been in great form in weak handicap company of late. |

9th (7) (40/1 -122%) Lady Bouquet |
40/1(-122%) | (7) Lady Bouquet 40/1, Latest win at Hamilton in July. Last of 8 in handicap (10/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 22 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Well beaten in three attempts at this trip and has tended to stick to faster surfaces. |

10th (8) (22/1 -57%) La Boo |
22/1(-57%) | (8) La Boo 22/1, 18/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 11 days ago and she will probably come up short once again. Regressive maiden; finished well beaten in her one start on soft ground. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
CROCODILE POWER has a lot going for him on the back of a string of consistent efforts and has a solid chance of adding a third C&D win to his portfolio based on his proven liking for this venue. Happier is another with an affinity for this track and can go well from a handy draw. Although a 13-race maiden, La Boo has shown flashes of ability and could provide some each-way value.
The vote goes to CROCODILE POWER, who landed back-to-back C&D handicaps prior to finishing a solid fourth at Chelmsford where he probably would've gone closer had things panned out a little better. On that evidence he remains on a feasible mark and gets the nod ahead of the Tim Easterby-trained pair, Canaria Queen and Happier. If Travel Candy takes her chance (due to run at Redcar on Monday) she will also be a threat.
White Umbrella is respected, but CROCODILE POWER can make is 3-3 over C&D having not had the breaks on the AW last time.
Ths is the racecard key.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
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. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
