|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
(12)  Harbour Vision |  | |  | | | 9 | Joey Haynes | Scott Dixon | Multiple course winner who's not as good or consistent now; the return here could help and he's well handicapped if so, but he doesn't arrive in any form. | ||
(1)  Glen Esk | | | | | | 7 | Charlie Bennett | John O'Shea | Wins for Chris Wall came over 1m2f and he's entitled to need this first run in the best part of two years at his age; probably best watched on his Tapeta debut unless there's good support. | ||
(11)  Pessoa | | | | | | 5 | George Rooke | Adrian Wintle | Four-time course winner, including once after a similar absence, but never off a mark quite this high; fine over this trip but the extended 7f is probably optimal and he'll need the breaks if dropped in as usual from the outside stall. | ||
(13)  Tacitus | | | | | | 6 | Tyler Heard | Tjade Collier | Just a single win and still to finish placed after ten starts on the AW; returns from an 11-week break with Covert Legend looking his yard's best chance. | ||
(7)  Light Up Our Stars | | | | | | 8 | Mikkel Mortensen | Scott Dixon | Three-time course winner who's only 2lb higher than when going in at Southwell in July; two subsequent poor efforts, however, for a yard that's been struggling for winners of late (also runs Harbour Vision). | ||
(3)  Lenny's Spirit | | | | | | 6 | Dougie Costello | Ed Dunlop | Has done most winning, including here, over a bit further and has struggled this season, coming 7lb down the weights (now 4lb lower than when last successful); needs a major revival from a wide stall. | ||
2nd (6)  Covert Legend | | | | | | 4 | Kevin Stott | Tjade Collier | Finally off the mark over C&D in the spring, back from wind surgery, off a 3lb lower mark; no luck in running next time before pulling away his chances at Nottingham and he is capable of better back from a break. | ||
4th (10)  Snooze Lane | | | | | | 5 | Gina Mangan | Sarah Hollinshead | Four wins here (three over 9.5f) including once fresh (returns from a break tonight); often dropped in and wants a proper test over this trip, but would hold claims if they go hard in front. | ||
(4)  Soames Forsyte | | | | | | 5 | Dylan Hogan | Michael Herrington | Boasts a fair record over C&D, including when winning off a 1lb higher mark in January; doesn't arrive in much form but the return here, back in the usual cheekpieces (plus a first-time tongue-tie) after one go in blinkers, may help. | ||
(9)  Equion | | | | | | 6 | Jack Doughty | Tony Carroll | Goes well here and is 2lb lower than when winning over C&D last summer; has returned to form lately, having missed seven months, and there are positives under Jack Doughty who's good value for his 5lb. | ||
1st (5)  Fools Rush In | | | | | | 6 | James Sullivan | Ruth Carr | Has not won in more than two years and has looked on the downgrade this season, coming a stone down the weights; offered more from the front back on Tapeta last time, though, and holds claims on that. | ||
3rd (8)  Pinball Wizard | | | | | | 6 | Sean D Bowen | James Owen | Trainer does well with older horses picked up from elsewhere and Sean Bowen has enjoyed an excellent run for him of late; headgear comes off on this return to the AW and he's one of the more interesting runners. | ||
(2)  Supaspecialawesome | | | | | | 4 | Jonny Peate | Hugo Palmer | Inconsistent front-runner who might have fared better than to land stall 11; unlucky not to have won outright over C&D off 5lb lower in June but typically failed to back that up here last time and it could well be all or nothing again. |
Now 2lb lower than when winning over C&D last summer, EQUION has returned to form of late after a light campaign and gets the nod. The well-handicapped Fools Rush In also holds claims, along with Pinball Wizard whose trainer-jockey combination has been banging in the winners of late.[Graham Wheldon]

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
5th (1)  Desiderata | | | | | | 4 | Darragh Keenan | Ryan Potter | Tailed off in two bumpers and one Flat start (8.4f) in the spring; will do very well to get involved back from a break. | ||
4th (4)  Waiting For Tom | | | | | | 3 | Trevor Whelan | Kevin Frost | First foal of four-time course winner Oratorio's Joy (including her maiden as a 3yo); by Time Test; trainer best known for his older handicappers (4-144 with 3yos over the past five seasons); may need time. | ||
3rd (5)  Arc Zoosve | | | | | | 3 | Joey Haynes | Ivan Furtado | Trainer does better with 3yos on the AW than turf; the market will guide with this gelded half-brother to eight winners, who went for 11,000gns as a yearling. | ||
1st (2)  Lordsbridge Blu | | | | | | 4 | Dougie Costello | S Woods | Debut fourth (7f, turf) been well advertised since and he backed it up behind a useful winner at Chelmsford last time (1m); was inclined to pull hard there, which would be a concern in a small field going up in trip again, but he's been found the right opening. | ||
2nd (3)  Prophet's Path | | | | | | 3 | Kevin Stott | Owen Burrows | Continued the steady progression when a clear second at Kempton last month, despite hanging right; had no problem with 1m4f that night and will likely have plenty of use made of him in a weak novice in which he sets the standard. |
This longer trip is no certainty for Lordsbridge Blu and he'll want to settle better than at Chelmsford if he's to have a chance of toppling the standard-setting PROPHET'S PATH in a novice that likely boils down to the pair.[Graham Wheldon]

| (5) Piddie's Pearl | | | | | | 2 | Trevor Whelan | Kevin Frost | Newcomer by Rajasinghe out of a 6f winner whose only previous foal has shown little in two runs; yard is only 4-73 with 2yos overall (0-7 this term); best watched unless the market speaks positively. | ||
4th (6)  City Of Strangers | | | | | | 2 | J F Egan | Craig Lidster | 13,000euros yearling; City Light half-sister to French winners Clelie (6f 2yo) and Clemenza (5.5f 2yo/1m), out of French 7.5f AW winner; stable has a very low strike-rate with 2yos this season. | ||
2nd (3)  J Street | | | | | | 2 | Ethan Jones | Craig Lidster | Justified favouritism in Catterick maiden in July and performed well in nurseries since, taking form figures over 5f to 42133; faces a difficult task at the weights on AW debut but her consistency is a plus. | ||
3rd (4)  Bobbi Rosa | | | | | | 2 | Andrew Slattery | Andrew Slattery | Thrice-raced Irish challenger; solid second in 5f maidens at Cork (behind a useful colt) and Bellewstown (emerged as the best horse at the weights) last month; clear possibilities on these terms. | ||
(1)  Amestris | | | | | | 2 | Jack Doughty | Michael Bell | Fairly useful filly whose 5f turf form features a comfortable win at Lingfield and good effort in Goodwood Group 3; major player back down in class, with Jack Doughty's claim largely offsetting a penalty. | ||
1st (2)  Star Of Mehmas | | | | | | 2 | George Rooke | Richard Hughes | Failed to get home over 6f when beaten favourite at Windsor and proved well suited by the drop to 5f at Lingfield (AW) where she scored with plenty in hand having made all; looks a useful prospect. |
Being a promising filly who should have more to offer at this distance, STAR OF MEHMAS may well prove capable of defying a penalty for her eased-down win at Lingfield. Amestris is respected back down in class, while Irish raider Bobbi Rosa is interesting on these terms.[Steve Boow]

4th (5)  Twilight Poppy | | | | | | 2 | Trevor Whelan | Kevin Frost | Dam was a modest 5f winner for the yard; today's nursery debut provides her with a first realistic opportunity but she's shown little across her first three outings. | ||
(6)  Mister Coco Fizz | | | | | | 2 | William Carson | Robert Cowell | Beaten a long way on first three starts and also down the field on nursery debut at Brighton; transformation needed now in cheekpieces. | ||
1st (2)  Premium Pass | | | | | | 2 | James Sullivan | Archie Watson | Runner-up at Chelmsford (5f, Polytrack) last month on AW debut and second nursery start, and another fair run when fourth at Brighton (5.2f) subsequently; there's every chance she'll be thereabouts. | ||
3rd (3)  Dawn Awakening | | | | | | 2 | Joey Haynes | Ivan Furtado | Wore a first-time tongue-tie (retained) on last month's nursery debut at Chelmsford (5f, Polytrack) and showed improved form to finish a fair third (a head behind Premium Pass), despite hanging right; she's a contender this evening, especially if able to keep straighter this time. | ||
(4)  Rosie Grey | | | | | | 2 | Kevin Stott | Michael Dods | Took a step in the right direction when fair fourth of eight at Musselburgh (5f, good) ten days ago, behind easy winner Solar Biricz (who is now 10lb higher); could have a part to play if building on that latest effort. | ||
2nd (1)  Solar Biricz | | | | | | 2 | Tom Kiely-Marshall | Brian Ellison | Encouraging third on nursery debut at Beverley (5f) last month and built on that for easy win at Musselburgh (5f) last time; hit with a 10lb rise but was impressive last time and he's highly respected on his AW debut. |
Topweight SOLAR BIRICZ (nap) won in fine style at Musselburgh recently and is taken to defy a 10lb rise. Premium Pass has run pretty well in defeat the last twice and is second choice ahead of Dawn Awakening, with whom she's closely matched.[Ben Hutton]

(9)  One Colour | | | | | | 5 | Christian Howarth | Max Young | Dual bumper winner for Rae Guest; beaten a long way in three maidens here (7f-9.4f) but this longer trip should help on handicap debut. | ||
1st (6)  Black Smoke | | | | | | 7 | Millie Wonnacott | Mark Loughnane | C&D winner in March before steadily losing his way and looks one to watch back from a break. | ||
(7)  Anna Of Saxony | | | | | | 4 | Dougie Costello | Stuart Kittow | Ran poorly at Brighton before slipping up and falling at Salisbury when 40-1; opposable. | ||
(10)  Sweet Painted Lady | | | | | | 3 | Trevor Whelan | Ivan Furtado | Hooded for all her five runs and it's been pretty moderate fare, including two handicaps. | ||
2nd (5)  Alex The Great | | | | | | 4 | Darragh Keenan | Raphael E Freire | Maiden who lost his way in Ireland after finishing third over 2m on the Dundalk AW in January; remains in same ownership and ability is there should blinkers help. | ||
4th (2)  Sea Master | | | | | | 4 | J F Egan | Jason Ward | Probably didn't enjoy the soft ground when tried in a hood last time; that made it 0-12 but could be given another chance off this low a mark. | ||
(1)  Kiss My Face | | | | | | 7 | Jack Doughty | Alastair Ralph | Hefty rise in the weights found him out at Worcester last time after bolting up there the run before; in fair nick and he's capable on the AW, including here. | ||
(4)  Three Platoon | | | | | | 6 | Dylan Hogan | Rebecca Menzies | Took record to 1-30 when beaten 5l into third in a 1m4f selling handicap at Beverley; that wasn't a bad run and sole win was over C&D, albeit back in 2021. | ||
(3)  Virtual Hug | | | | | | 6 | Gina Mangan | Nikki Evans | Doesn't win very often but three of his four victories have come here; however, latest 14l defeat here hardly fills one with confidence. | ||
3rd (8)  Ramaah | | | | | | 3 | Sean D Bowen | Ismail Mohammed | Has run some poor races but it all came together when a clearcut winner over 1m5f at Chelmsford last week (under Sean D Bowen); 6lb higher but might not have a lot to beat here. |
If he is in the same form as at Chelmsford last week, then RAMAAH will probably follow up as he doesn't have a lot to beat. Kiss My Face and Alex The Great are his most likeliest threats.[Alistair Jones]

(9)  Independent Beauty | | | | | | 6 | James Sullivan | Lisa Williamson | Longstanding maiden whose recent form doesn't suggest she's about to get off the mark. | ||
4th (6)  Many A Year | | | | | | 5 | Darragh Keenan | John Butler | Showed promise last summer in novice/maiden races; has tumbled down the weights and he's one to watch in the betting now back from a break, but he struggled on his four starts earlier this year; plenty to prove. | ||
(5)  Kessaar Power | | | | | | 4 | Tyler Heard | Phil McEntee | Second at Yarmouth in May but has a regressive profile and hasn't threatened the next twice; his losing run continues and others appeal more. | ||
3rd (1)  Cooperation | | | | | | 6 | Ryan Kavanagh | Michael Attwater | Now 10lb lower than when runner-up over C&D last November but he's finished no better than fifth across his six starts this year and hasn't been shaping of late as though a return to winning ways is imminent. | ||
(7)  Porfin | | | | | | 6 | Grace McEntee | Phil McEntee | Won at Yarmouth (6f) in June and here (7f) in July; hasn't really threatened away from Wolverhampton on his last three starts but he has a very solid record here and could have a part to play. | ||
(3)  Overnight Oats | | | | | | 4 | Sean D Bowen | James Owen | Has struggled this year, including when sent off favourite for last week's stable debut at Southwell; however, he continues to drop down the weights and his in-form trainer may find the key sooner rather than later. | ||
(8)  Angel Amadea | | | | | | 6 | Dylan Hogan | Rebecca Menzies | Hasn't shone on her three starts this summer and 7f is perhaps her best trip, but 1m has stretched her the last twice and she's 2-3 at Wolverhampton; could play a leading role now back here in first-time cheekpieces. | ||
1st (2)  Arlecchino's Gift | | | | | | 5 | George Rooke | Mark Usher | Three-time C&D winner, the latest in July, and after two lesser runs on turf he returned to form when short-headed at Lingfield (6f, AW) 11 days ago; strong candidate. | ||
2nd (4)  Liosa | | | | | | 4 | Dougie Costello | Stuart Kittow | Lightly raced 4yo whose sole win came over C&D last September and he was runner-up to Arlecchino's Gift over C&D in July last time; this place brings out the best in him and he's one to consider. |
Wolverhampton brings out the best in ANGEL AMADEA and she is taken to exploit a dangerous mark now back here. Three-time C&D winner Arlecchino's Gift is next on the list after a near-miss at Lingfield, while Liosa and Porfin could also be involved.[Ben Hutton]

| (6) Mary The Priest | | | | | | 3 | Tyler Heard | John Butler | Picked up from Ireland, where she won a 6f turf maiden, for 6,000euros last autumn; 80-1, didn't offer a lot from the front on her belated comeback three weeks ago and would want to see some support this time. | ||
(7)  State Of Madness | | | | | | 3 | Raul Da Silva | Derek Shaw | Almost sprang a surprise on her debut for Dominic Ffrench Davis in May; has finished well held in two runs for this yard since, pulling hard back up to 6f last time, and needs more now handicapping. | ||
(8)  Maharajas Express | | | | | | 4 | Jack Doughty | Patrick Morris | Unlucky not to be 2-2 over C&D for Jack Jones; pulled hard from a wide stall round Chester on his first run for current connections six weeks ago, having been picked up for 16,000gns, and ought to fare better. | ||
(1)  Rainyniteingeorgia | | | | | | 3 | Andrew Slattery | Alice Haynes | Best efforts, including for William Jarvis last year, came when fresh, so the ten-week break looks a plus going in a first-time headgear/tongue-tie combination; has the speed to utilise a low stall too, for a trainer who won this with a 3yo in 2022. | ||
(4)  Match Play | | | | | | 4 | Dougie Costello | Paul Midgley | Three wins all came from the front on turf in the summer months, latterly back from wind surgery off a 3lb lower mark a month ago; needs to improve on previous Tapeta efforts and stall 10 wouldn't look ideal. | ||
(3)  Jojo Rabbit | | | | | | 6 | James Sullivan | Ruth Carr | Has never been the most consistent but has won four of his six starts over C&D and returns to Tapeta on a fair mark; the return to 5f is in his favour too, so there are positives. | ||
1st (2)  Catch Cunningham | | | | | | 5 | Dylan Hogan | Michael Herrington | May well be dropped in from stall 11, as he was when winning at Newmarket off a 3lb lower mark a month ago, but he needs to bounce back from a couple of lesser efforts. | ||
(9)  Dark Side Prince | | | | | | 7 | Oliver Stammers | Jessica Macey | Proven winner, including twice over C&D, who landed a Chelmsford hat-trick early in the year; finished well held back on turf a month ago and has never won off a mark quite this high. | ||
3rd (11)  Phoenix Beach | | | | | | 5 | Joey Haynes | Scott Dixon | Successful start for his new yard over C&D three weeks ago (favourite Aces Wild third) and ran well after a slow start back to Tapeta on Tuesday; another furlong is perhaps optimal, though, and he'll always need the breaks over such an easy 5f. | ||
4th (5)  Call Glory | | | | | | 3 | Frederick Larson | Michael Appleby | Has regressed for this yard, latterly in cheekpieces, and is given a try in a blinkers/hood combination tonight; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort at Chester last weekend. | ||
2nd (10)  Aces Wild | | | | | | 5 | Sean D Bowen | Adrian Wintle | Three C&D wins to his name already, latterly off a 4lb lower mark in July, and the return to a bigger field looks ideal under leading apprentice Sean D Bowen; high on the shortlist. |
Things didn't pan out ACES WILD's way in a small field behind Phoenix Beach here last time, with his three previous C&D wins all coming under hold-up rides, and this could well be set up for him. Jojo Rabbit's record over C&D alone (4-6) entitles him to respect, with Rainyniteingeorgia another to consider.[Graham Wheldon]

3rd (3)  Offiah's Boy | | | | | | 3 | Trevor Whelan | Tom Ward | Beaten 10l on debut and then tailed off in two 1m2f novices; goes handicapping in new headgear having been gelded; too risky. | ||
| 4th (12) Filey Beach | | | | | | 3 | J F Egan | Jason Ward | Finished closer on handicap debut over slightly shorter at Beverley, though may have been flattered having gone from the front; this should tell more. | ||
(10)  Little Siskin | | | | | | 3 | Jack Doughty | John Butler | Beaten 9l+ in all seven runs for Tom Clover and now goes beyond 7f for the first time with cheekpieces added. | ||
(4)  Nancy Rose | | | | | | 3 | George Rooke | Jonathan Portman | Has shown the odd bit of promise but has flattered to deceive; has been running over 6f as well so there are stamina concerns. | ||
(6)  Koji | | | | | | 3 | Kevin Stott | Ivan Furtado | Sole win did at least come here, over 7f in March; mostly disappointing in the meantime from 5f to 1m; on a good mark but has some serious questions to answer. | ||
(2)  Eccentric | | | | | | 3 | Dylan Hogan | Adrian Wintle | Tapeta winner (1m; Southwell) for Jamie Osborne; left that yard under a cloud and has yet to emerge from it. | ||
2nd (5)  Northstead Gardens | | | | | | 3 | Joey Haynes | David Simcock | After racing over further (including here) she dropped back to 1m at Lingfield and showed more to finish fourth from off the pace; that's something to build on. | ||
(7)  Soveraine | | | | | | 3 | Oliver Stammers | Charlie Johnston | 11-race maiden who dropped away at Chelmsford and finished behind La Sonnambula; goes in cheekpieces but the visor didn't do much for her on last two starts. | ||
(11)  Lightning Bay | | | | | | 3 | Darragh Keenan | John Butler | Had plenty of chances (0-14) but he hasn't been all that far away of late, albeit behind Northstead Gardens at Lingfield 11 days ago. | ||
(9)  Aspire To Glory | | | | | | 3 | Christian Howarth | Alice Haynes | Dual 7f winner; only 2l behind the winner here last time but that was also over 7f and this far might stretch him. | ||
1st (1)  Cuban Harry | | | | | | 3 | Dougie Costello | Ed Dunlop | 0-12; not far away over C&D and then saw too much daylight out wide when a beaten favourite at Chelmsford; respected. | ||
(8)  La Sonnambula | | | | | | 3 | Sean D Bowen | James Ferguson | Half-sister to two winners and she showed more in her second handicap when tried in blinkers at Chelmsford (1m; beaten just over 4l); now goes in a visor but she has more upside than most. |
La Sonnambula has more upside than most of these after showing more last time at Chelmsford but preference is for CUBAN HARRY who finished further back that day. The selection saw too much daylight out wide and his previous run here was encouraging. Northstead Gardens showed more last time and is preferred of the others.[Alistair Jones]
