Sole success came in a claimer over C&D on good-to-soft ground in May. Some fair efforts in handicap company since and an interesting runner today.
Victorious in a 5f handicap on good-to-soft ground here last month. Best effort in two starts since came when 3L third in a 6f claimer on the AW recently. Has looked a non-stayer in two previous attempts at this distance.
Winner of a seller over this trip at Wolverhampton in February. Wore a first time visor on that occasion and that equipment returns having been replaced with blinkers when fourth last time out.
Only victory so far came off a mark of 63 over 6f at Catterick (good-to-soft) in October last year. Disappointing since and makes his first foray into selling company today.
Unraced gelded son of Showcasing purchased for 30,000 gns as a yearling in October 2015. Half-brother to fair sprinter in Threes Grand and starts his career at a low level.
11 race maiden and held fourth in a 6f seller at Chepstow (good) last time out. Others make more appeal in this contest.
Maiden after 11 starts but has twice finished in the frame off a mark of 72 over 1m since being gelded. Disappointing last time but but this drop in trip and marked drop in grade should see him run well in first time blinkers.
Slowly away prior to finishing well beaten on debut over 6f at Lingfield on the AW earlier this year. Returning from over six months off the track.
Ran well when finishing 3L second in a similar race to this on good-to-soft ground over C&D last month. Interesting runner with similar underfoot conditions forecast today.
Running well in modest handicaps at Brighton of late including when fourth over this trip on good ground last week. Worth a check in the market today.
Well beaten in two starts since finishing a close fourth over 1m on soft ground at Compiegne in July. Currently rated 66 and an interesting contender off a light weight today.

Spirit Of Belle (5/2), Undiscovered Angel (9/2), Kings Academy (5/1), Oakley Pride (9/1), Jet Setter (10/1), Queen Beatrice (10/1), Traveltalk (12/1), Garth Rockett (12/1), Solitary Sister (14/1), Hisar (25/1), Parisian Chic (25/1), Broughtons Sport (50/1), Amber Mischief (100/1)
SPIRIT OF BELLE drops in grade today and can return to form by taking this selling contest. The selection has run well off handicap marks in the 70's this summer and is taken to get the better of Undiscovered Angel who has put in some fair efforts in the past while Oakley Pride, third in a similar race to this back in June can claim third.
