Harry Hurricane⁵¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: P Cosgrave| T: George Baker| OR: 82| D

3/1

Talented, but not straightforward, and on a losing run of 16 since scoring at Haydock in 2016. Did too much too soon when fifth at Chester last time, but not really one to make excuses for.

Form: 0-75885

Outrage^b¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: G Mosse| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 81| CD

7/1

Useful performer in his conditions (fast ground or AW) and ran with credit on good to firm at Sandown in July. Ran poorly in Stewards' Sprint at Goodwood last time, but forgiven that, and return to 5f should help here.

Form: 8-89630

Tylery Wonder^b⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: L Morris| T: P T Midgley| OR: 73| CD

4/1

Took advantage of drop in class and lightning-fast start to score over C&D last time, and end a frustrating run. Penalty is fair on bare reading of that race, and still well treated on 2017 form, so respected.

Form: 823201

Joegogo⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: A Kirby| T: P D Evans| OR: 78| D

7/1

All wins on AW surfaces, and back to form when fourth over 5f at Chelmsford last time, but needs to build on bare for of that run, and return to turf is not an obvious plus.

Form: 364454

Bashiba^t²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: N Tinkler| OR: 76| CD

4/1

Has plenty of winning form on good/fast ground, including at Nottingham in June, when 2lb lower. Bit disappointing since, including with conditions in his favour at Doncaster last time. Engaged 3:35 Thirsk.

Angel of The South¹⁶¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: R Winston| T: D K Ivory| OR: 77| D

16/1

Has failed to justify a £170,000 yearling price tag but finally opened her account in a fillies novice event at Wolverhampton in December and won again at Chelmsford in February. Off since March, though, and needs to prove herself on turf.

Form: 1-55132

Porto Ferro⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: J J Bridger| OR: 72| C

9/1

Won apprentice event over 6f here in May, and on turf at Lingfield the following month. Better than ever when head second to Vegas Boy there last time, and capable of going close if coping with drop in trip.

Form: 152152

Roundabout Magic²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Tom Marquand| T: S Dow| OR: 65| D

14/1

Won over extended 5f at Brighton in May, but not found much after travelling well on recent starts at 6f, so possible he will benefit from being dropped back in trip. Fairly treated if that's the case.

Form: 234373

Forecasts

Harry Hurricane (3/1), Bashiba (4/1), Tylery Wonder (4/1), Joegogo (7/1), Outrage (7/1), Porto Ferro (9/1), Roundabout Magic (14/1), Angel of The South (16/1)

TYLERY WONDER was out like a rocket when winning comfortably here last weekend, and he can shrug aside a penalty if in the same form now. Outrage ran too badly to be true at Goodwood, and it would be no surprise to see him bounce back, with the drop to 5f a positive. Harry Hurricane is no win proposition given his quirks, but he should be thereabouts at this level.
