Dealer's Choice³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Bentley| T: R Varian| OR: 73| D

8/1

May not have handled the heavy conditions when a long way behind the winner at Nottingham last time and ran better in a handicap on good to firm prior to that an was a wide-margin maiden winner at Lingfield in June. Claims on return to polytrack.

Form: 4-22154

Kings Academy^p⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Raul Da Silva| T: P & O Cole| OR: 72

25/1

Off the mark at Leicester in August having run well at a much higher level than this prior to that. Has missed multiple recent engagements due to the ground but has perhaps seemed most at home on this surface and a bold bid is anticipated.

Form: 466314

Major Crispies^b,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Patrick Vaughan⁽⁷⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 70| D

12/1

Not the most favourable career strike-rate but all three wins have come over this trip and two of them on the all-weather. Has looked close to another victory recently and every chance he could here with an apprentice jockey claiming 7lb.

Form: 332438

The Big Lad^b¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 72| CD

11/1

C&D winner whose form has tailed off somewhat recently but would have a outstanding chance on his very best form. Has returned to this distance from the minimum trip but is just as effective over 6f, but needs a revival here.

Form: 226637

(9)

Dream Farr^t¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: L P Keniry| T: E Walker| OR: 68| BF| CD

15/2

C&D winner who has been running consistently at a similar level to this recently, and has shown a liking for Polytrack in the past. Unlucky to lose in selling company last time off a big weight and has to have a say here.

Form: 583332

Mishaal⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: K Shoemark| T: M Herrington| OR: 70| BF| CD

11/8

Second over C&D last time out when running well enough, but now on a fair losing streak and concedes weight here to some higher rated rivals. Others hold more convincing claims.

Form: 270442

Picture Dealer²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Simon Pearce⁽³⁾| T: Mrs L Pearce| OR: 73| D

33/1

Hasn't shown much besides a victory at Yarmouth in May when having the race run to suit. Poor record here and likely to struggle once again.

Form: 781879

(12)

Red Gunner¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Shelley Birkett⁽³⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 68

33/1

Promising in maidens but hasn't built on that potential in handicaps, vulnerable here on the basis of an 18L defeat at Chelmsford last time out (7f, standard).

Form: 298670

Yeeoow^p⁵⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: M Harley| T: K R Burke| OR: 73| CD

9/1

These would be his ideal conditions for him to show his best, but he has had plenty of chances to get his head back in front recently and seems vulnerable against some younger rivals here.

Form: 455370

(6)

Red Trooper¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Josephine Gordon| T: George Baker| OR: 71| C

6/1

Lightly-raced for his age and won his maiden here over 7f last October. Couldn't keep tabs on an odds-on favourite last time out and could go closer here with no obvious leading contender to beat. Jockey takes ride for first time.

Form: 315-562

(8)

Spiritofedinburgh^p1⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-3| J: M Dwyer| T: B G Powell| OR: 57

66/1

Ran okay in maidens, including over further at this course, but not so good since graduating to handicaps/sellers. Cheek pieces may help bring about some improvement given he has hung in the past, but still seems an unlikely prospect here.

Form: 3-37070

Forecasts

Mishaal (11/8), Red Trooper (6/1), Dream Farr (15/2), Dealer's Choice (8/1), Yeeoow (9/1), The Big Lad (11/1), Major Crispies (12/1), Lord Cooper (12/1), Kings Academy (25/1), Red Gunner (33/1), Picture Dealer (33/1), Spiritofedinburgh (66/1)

This can go to DREAM FARR, who has been running well in handicaps recently and has shown that not only he handles this surface in the past, but he may have a preference for it. He looks weighted to get his head back in front here, while King's Academy would also have an excellent chance if able to turn up here in his best form, and Red Trooper benefits from the services of Josephine Gordon for the first time.
