1st (3) Smooth Silesie
3Jack MitchellLisa WilliamsonFour wins in 5f handicaps this season, including two of her last three starts; it wasn't the strongest of races at Chelmsford 13 days ago though and she'll need to improve again to follow up.
4th (2) Soldiers Design
3Sean D BowenSteph HollinsheadBeaten 2l into sixth at Sandown on Friday (5f, good), her second run for this stable; talented apprentice takes off a handy 3lb and she could take another step forward this afternoon.
2nd (1) Wrestling Revenue
3Jack DoughtyTony CarrollRunning well on turf for new yard this summer, winning twice at Brighton (5.5f, good and good to firm); another solid effort at that track four weeks ago and capable of a big run back down in class; unraced on slower than good so significant rain would be a query.
3rd (4) Port Hedland
3Trevor WhelanHenry CandyOnly fifth of six at Windsor on his reappearance/handicap debut in July (5f, good to firm); that was a fair race though and he could take a step forward with that experience behind him.


Wrestling Revenue (second choice) and Smooth Silesie have enjoyed productive summers and can feature prominently, but SOLDIERS DESIGN (nap) ran creditably against some seasoned handicappers at Sandown last week and she benefits from Sean D Bowen's valuable 3lb claim.[Paul Smith]

3Gina ManganMarcus TregoningWell beaten in all five starts; much more needed; blinkers go on.
(8) Byzantine Empire
7Connor BraceJohn & Rhys FlintMultiple jumps winner who is 0-11 in this code; needs to better his most recent Flat efforts if he is to take a serious hand.
3rd (2) Rockit Tommy
4George RookeSir Mark ToddWon first two starts, over 1m2f (AW and soft turf); largely well below that level since but showed signs of coming back to form at Kempton (1m4f, AW) latest; has stamina to prove now upped again in trip.
(3) For Pleasure
9Sean BowenOlly MurphyVersatile 9yo who has won several times over jumps as well as on AW and twice on turf at up to 1m4f; latest success came over 2m (AW) in April; 2lb higher now but capable of making an impact if ready after a break.
(4) Wilderness
9Trevor WhelanSeamus MullinsFive-time turf winner at up to 2m but hasn't won since 2022; nonetheless, she's shown enough recently to suggest that she could still be competitive from this mark; not written off.
4th (5) A Gift Of Love
4Kevin StottOllie SangsterSeven-race maiden who was placed in handicap company for the first time (1m4f, AW) on last month's first start for this trainer; still has to prove her stamina over this far; if transferring the form of that latest effort back to turf, she's an each-way player.
2nd (1) Percy Jones
5Ray DawsonMark LoughnaneAW winner over 1m4f-1m6f; placed in 8-14 starts on turf at up to 2m; not ground dependent; drops in grade here and should be capable of getting much closer than of late as a result; probable player.
1st (9) Maritime Lady
3Sean D BowenJames OwenGot off the mark at the seventh attempt when sporting first-time cheekpieces in a Leicester fillies' handicap (1m4f, good to firm) in July; up 4lb and was below par at Kempton (1m4f, AW) since; stamina to prove.
(7) Miss Gitana
3Luke MorrisSir Mark Prescott BtRaced prominently when winning back-to-back races at Doncaster (14.5f, good to firm) and over C&D (good) in the summer; maintained consistency with another good effort at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) last month; may still be capable of squeezing out a little more back on turf; player.


A few of these have stamina to prove but that's not the case with MISS GITANA, who has both C&D winning form and an age allowance on her side and she looks the best option. Her most serious challenger could be A Gift Of Love, as Ollie Sangster appeared to set her back on the right path last time, while Percy Jones is another probable player.[Jonathan Doidge]

(9) Rationale
2Kieran O'NeillRae Guest1,500gns yearling; first foal; by Kameko; dam 1m2f AW 2yo winner (RPR 79), half-sister to winners Vociferous (1m AW 2yo/French 8.5f) and Porto Rosa (6f AW 2yo); hooded on debut; trainer 11% with turf 2yos in the last five years; market check suggested.
(6) The Bear Of Saints
2Taylor FisherJoe TickleGlimpses of ability on his first two starts; 125-1 and last of 12 in a Salisbury novice event (6f, good to firm) on his first start for this trainer; much more needed.
(8) Dark Sorceress
2Jason WatsonClare HobsonMade a respectable start in handicaps when 4l second at Nottingham (6f, good) last month, having raced prominently; will need to improve on that bare form but not ruled out each-way.
2nd (7) Atherstone Beau
2Luke MorrisRoger Fell & Sean Murray33-1 when making a positive start at Catterick (5f, soft) in July; raced freely then and on fast ground at Beverley (5f) since, when 3l fourth; step up in trip could help her improve if settling; not ruled out.
1st (4) Obsidian Dream
2Liam KeniryJ S MooreStepped up on his debut effort when fifth of 16 at Chepstow (7f, good to soft) latest; now has to prove he has the pace to cope with this drop in trip.
(2) Beltadaay
2Kevin StottJames Horton25-1 and never a factor on debut at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) recently.
(5) Sofian
2Gina ManganNikki EvansMade significant improvement on a modest C&D debut, when despite running green again, he finished fourth at Ffos Las (7.5f, soft) latest; drops back down in trip and a repeat of that latest form would see him heavily involved.
3rd (3) Distant Rumble
2Jack MitchellRoger TealHad shown glimpses of ability before an improved effort when under 2l second over C&D (good to firm) latest, where he would have finished closer but for having to switch late on; a player if he can back that up.


Nikki Evans' SOFIAN improved markedly on his debut when finishing fourth at Ffos Las last time and has good form claims back down in trip. Distant Rumble's chance is respected after being slightly unlucky here last time and he will be waiting to mop up. Obsidian Dream may prove the best of the rest.[Jonathan Doidge]

5Jack DoughtyTony Carroll0-6 and hasn't yet hinted that he is about to break his duck so more needed.
(1) Impeach
6Taylor FisherMichael AttwaterFour-time 6f AW winner whose best turf efforts have been on a sound surface; has claims based on his close second at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) in July but has a lacklustre Lingfield effort since to shrug off.
(10) Fishermans Cottage
5Charlie BennettMalcolm SaundersReturns for a fourth successive tilt over C&D but this time after almost a year off; not written off if he's ready after that layoff but has fitness to prove.
(2) Whiteley Way
3Jack MitchellRoger TealSecond over C&D (soft; 7lb higher mark) last October, when back from break; best effort since also came after time off, when second at Kempton (6f, AW) in February; has been freshened up again and can get involved.
1st (6) Snow Berry
6Alistair RawlinsonMichael Appleby5f course winner; arrives in super form, having won back-to-back 5f Nottingham handicaps and produced a marginal career best back there in defeat latest; nudged up another 1lb and back up in trip (has won over 6f); player.
2nd (5) Media Guest
6Liam KeniryMark GillardCame from the rear to score over C&D in July, when 2lb lower; well below that level at both Salisbury and Goodwood since but he's not been out of the first two in three starts here so has to be respected.
4th (4) Apache Star
5Ray DawsonMark LoughnaneDual C&D winner, including on good; looked to retain last year's ability on his reappearance in March but he's been well below that level since; handy mark if he can be revived.
(8) Johnny Johnson
3Luke MorrisRod Millman14-race maiden; drops another 3lb to what is becoming a workable mark; claims based on his Salisbury fourth (6f, good to firm) in July but below that level since.
(3) Some Nightmare
7Sean D BowenJohn O'SheaMultiple turf sprint winner on varying ground and he ended a losing run going back two years when a ready winner at Chepstow yesterday (5f, good); small penalty to carry and not written off.
3rd (7) Vaunted
5Finley MarshAdrian Wintle5f course winner who scored over 6f at Chepstow (good to soft) on her penultimate start; unseated her jockey at the start back there latest; carries penalty again but another success is not ruled out if she can repeat her winning effort.


Both Vaunted and Snow Berry arrive with claims on recent form and of that pair, the latter is just preferred. However, given his previous form here, MEDIA GUEST is taken to shrug off a couple of lesser efforts and come good again. The freshened-up Whiteley Way and penalised Some Nightmare can also be involved.[Jonathan Doidge]

(8) Heartrate
4Sean D BowenMark LoughnaneWon twice on turf last season (5f/6f, both good ground); not operating at the same level this year though and vulnerable despite his reduced mark.
4th (3) Delagate This Lord
10Finley MarshRoger Fell & Sean Murray8-18 at Bath as opposed to 1-40 elsewhere; two low-key runs for new yard in midsummer (bled from the nose latest) and although the return to this track will help, others come here with less to prove.
(7) Just Glamorous
11Gina ManganChristopher MasonSmart in his prime and he retained sufficient ability to win a Salisbury handicap last summer off 13lb higher; not really fired this year though and opposable despite a reduced mark.
2nd (4) Symbol Of Hope
6Taylor FisherJohn & Rhys FlintCourse regular who has won twice here for his new yard this summer; disappointed over 6f at Goodwood 12 days ago but these conditions should see him in a better light; not much wiggle room off current mark though.
(2) Sovereign Slipper
6Trevor WhelanHenry CandyPipped So Smart in the final strides at Chepstow in July (5f, good to soft) and he's 2lb better off with that rival today; subsequent Leicester run (6f) less convincing but returning to a stiff 5f should suit, especially with a fast pace looking assured.
(1) So Smart
5Ray DawsonGrace HarrisRunning well since cheekpieces were added, winning over C&D in June and at Chepstow nine days ago; penalty for the latest win found him out at Chepstow on Monday; this is a drop in grade but still looks vulnerable.
1st (6) Honour Your Dreams
4Alistair RawlinsonMichael ApplebyModest strike-rate and has a few quirks but he's capable of his day and he is starting out for Mick Appleby on a handy mark (sold 11,000gns in July); should get a good pace to aim at and this strong traveller is one to consider.
3rd (5) Glamorous Express
5Luke MorrisTony CarrollC&D win as a 2yo; added two AW wins to his tally in March and he's run several sound races on grass this summer, including at Sandown on Friday where he found himself with plenty to do but ran on well; each-way claims once again.


Honour Your Dreams is an intriguing contender starting out for a yard that has excelled with similar types in the past. Glamorous Express (second choice) looks booked for another big run, but SOVEREIGN SLIPPER has had few opportunities at this trip and a well-run race over a stiff 5f could see him take a step forward.[Paul Smith]

5th (5) Spirit Of The Bay
6Taylor FisherJohn & Rhys FlintMultiple 1m winner on turf/AW whose latest success came over 1m2f (good to firm) last season; slipping in the handicap and showed signs of a revival at Ffos Las (1m, heavy) latest; half-sister to a 1m4f winner, so this step up in trip may suit; each-way player.
7th (6) One Glance
3Liam KeniryAlan KingImproved with each start in AW events (all 1m3f-1m4f at Kempton); the second from her latest start came out and won easily next time and if she can show similar progress now handicapping she'd be a player.
6th (4) Ville Natale
3Ray DawsonRoger VarianImproved from her three novice starts to win at Chelmsford in January (1m2f, AW); has gone backwards in two handicaps since then and now has a bit to prove.
1st (2) Miss Dolly Rocker
4Jason WatsonRoger Teal1m AW and 1m2f soft turf winner (stays 1m3f); on a six-race losing run this season; handy mark again but didn't show any signs of taking advantage at Windsor latest.
3rd (7) Bas Bleu
3Luke MorrisEd Walker0-8 but has gone close several times, including in a 0-85 Newbury handicap (1m4f, good to firm) latest, when just collared by the favourite; up another 5lb but is much respected.
4th (3) Divine Presence
3Kieran O'NeillJohn & Thady GosdenProgressing with each start; won a Wolverhampton fillies' handicap (1m4f, AW) on first attempt in this sphere in June; career-best, despite being beaten 5l, in a 0-95 at Newbury (13.5f; good; first-time cheekpieces, retained) latest; back slightly in trip and a likely player.
2nd (1) Ciara Pearl
4Jack MitchellDaniel & Claire KublerHas a good strike-rate with five wins from 1m-1m2f, including here (soft; acts on a sound surface); supported when winning at Sandown (1m2f, good to firm) on her penultimate start before a career-best effort when a close second upped to 1m4f at Salisbury latest; player.


An interesting contest. Bas Bleu has a fair bit going for her except that she has yet to get off the mark. Her latest effort looks very solid but she's gone up 5lb and DIVINE PRESENCE is taken to make this drop in class tell over a new trip. Ciara Pearl has the burden of top weight but can still make her presence felt.[Jonathan Doidge]

5Dylan HoganLouise AllanC&D winner (good) in May off 2lb lower; not far off that level at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) next time, before a flop at Kempton (1m3f, AW) latest; if shrugging that off he could be in contention now back here.
(6) Summer Gale
6Jason WatsonClare HobsonPlaced in a bumper but unplaced in seven starts in this code; drops another 4lb but hard to make a case based on this season's efforts.

2nd (4) Lost In Time
7Luke MorrisDean IvoryHas proved reasonably consistent in defeat over 1m2f-1m4f this season, until disappointing at Brighton (1m4f, good to firm); each-way player if able to bounce back from that.
(10) Highland Lil
3Pierre-Louis JaminTom DascombeBest effort since her debut came when a 5l third at Ffos Las (1m4f, good to soft) on her penultimate start; well below par on heavy ground back there latest; still a bit to prove.
(5) Ladypacksapunch
5Kieran O'NeillGrace HarrisHadn't really lived up to her name until getting off the mark over C&D (firm) last month at the 29th attempt; below that level back here (1m5f, good to firm) and from this mark since but not ruled out.
(1) Galactic Glow
7Taylor FisherJoe TickleRecorded all three wins here over 1m2f (fast ground) but yet to get close to his best over further; arrives in good form after his Salisbury second (1m2f, good to firm) but his stamina will again be tested.
(3) Imprint
5Jack MitchellMark RimellBroke his duck at the ninth attempt with 1m2f course win (firm; first-time in these aids) in a classified event in July; bettered that in defeat at Redcar (1m1f, good) latest; worth a try over this far but will have stamina to prove; not ruled out.
3rd (11) Letmebetheboss
3Jack DoughtyWilliam Muir & Chris GrassickReturned from wind surgery to be placed for the second time this season, when 2l third at Ffos Las (1m4f, heavy) last month; the challenge now is to back that up and he's an each-way player if he can.


Now that he returns to the scene of his C&D win, BOND SPIRIT may be capable of shrugging off a below-par latest effort and come good again. Imprint could be a serious challenger if he stays this trip, while Letmebetheboss can be another player if able to back up his latest effort. Ladypacksapunch is not written off, either.[Jonathan Doidge]
