Mayasa^b³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J L Flint| OR: 72| CD

50/1

Filly was a C&D winner in July 2016 but has had a troubled time since and two turf runs since joining this yard have left more questions than answers.

Form: 3140-76

Archipeligo⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Jamie Gormley⁽⁷⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 70| CD

9/2

Fair performer, with a 25% strike rate on the AW that includes a C&D success in January 2015. Latest success over 1m2f at Newcastle in July and on the same mark again now.

Star Of Lombardy¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: J F Egan| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 68| C| D

9/1

Both AW wins have arrived this year, including here over shorter trip in March, struggling for form since Epsom success in July and best watched for now.

Form: 376484

Omotesando^p⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Charlie Bennett⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 66| C| D

6/1

Generally consistent this season and gained a deserved win at Haydock in August (1m3 ½f, good to soft). This looks more competitive and he was well held back at Haydock eight days ago.

Form: 332136

Voski²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 69| D

9/1

Can only be described as a disappointment since making the ideal start to his career at Lingfield in March (1m4f). A fast falling mark has yet to threaten to reap dividends, and was well beaten over C&D in July.

Form: 356855

Innish Man¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Joey Haynes| T: J Mackie| OR: 62| CD

40/1

Lightly-raced sort was full of promise around here in late 2015 and early last year, returned from 607 days off last month with a lifeless display over C&D. Hard to assess now.

Form: 7614/2-0

Enriching⁵⁹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: R Brisland| OR: 62| C

40/1

Has won around here in the past but now coming back from 590 days away and unless money is down will surely be needing this run.

Form: 61/3565-

Ode To Glory³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: David Probert| T: Rae Guest| OR: 67| C

3/1

Won a maiden here over extended-mile in September last, arrives now on the back of a solid effort over this trip at Epsom (good to firm) in August and holds claims.

Form: 062332

Sir Gnet^h⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: K Shoemark| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 66

7/2

May well have more to offer over this trip than looked the case last time at Newcastle, particularly if getting more pace to aim at.

Form: 225326

Singular Quest¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: L Morris| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 59

8/1

Returned from a 455-day layoff with a commendable third over C&D two weeks ago, drops 1lb now and must get involved if able to build on that effort.

Form: 33674-3

Kaisan^t,v1³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Adam Beschizza| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 55

33/1

Nine-race maiden and has struggled in five turf runs since switching to this yard, had run well over this C&D in maiden company but plenty to prove on these terms.

Forecasts

Ode To Glory (3/1), Sir Gnet (7/2), Frozon (4/1), Archipeligo (9/2), Omotesando (6/1), Singular Quest (8/1), Star Of Lombardy (9/1), Voski (9/1), Kaisan (33/1), Enriching (40/1), Innish Man (40/1), Mayasa (50/1)

Frozon has won two from three recent C&D starts and needs plenty respect having gone up the minimum for the latest of those. Singular Quest was close behind that evening returning from a long spell on the sidelines and can surely give him a race now if able to build on the reappearance, while Sir Gnet is unexposed over this trip and is expected to play a leading role granted some pace to aim at. Another with winning C&D form is ARCHIPELIGO and he's on a workable mark returned to this trip having run a solid race over shorter last time out.
