Exchequer^p¹¹⁵

5/1

Never won on turf and after a couple of decent runs in first two starts for this yard on AW he has showed little in latest two runs back on the turf. Had wind surgery since last run and will have needed to make a difference.

3/1

Tends to go well here and won back-to-back races over C&D in June. Still 2lbs higher than for the last of those and not as good at Sandown last time. Return to this venue a plus and every chance of going well again.

7/2

Form has been a bit in and out so far this year with his best effort coming at Brighton when finishing second back in May. Needs a sharp return to form to be involved here but talented rider takes off a handy 3lb.

5/1

Ran with real promise on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) two starts back. Disappointing two be beaten at odds-on back in novice company at Yarmouth last time over 1m and this drop back to 7f looks a good move.

16/1

Had been showing signs of progress prior to bombing out on turf debut at Windsor last month. No surprise to see her switched straight back onto the all-weather and needs to bounce back.

Form: 7-1246

Spinart⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 66

13/2

Yet to win in 16 starts including five on the AW. Been running pretty well without winning though off this sort of mark and capable of getting involved on a going day.

Form: 60-5233

Chica De La Noche²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: S De Sousa| T: S Dow| OR: 64| CD

12/1

Has now dropped 3lb lower than her last winning mark at Salisbury last year. Form has not been as good this time around however and needs to show considerably more to be involved here.

Form: 31U-005

Diva Star¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Hayley Turner| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 65

12/1

Shaped with promise over C&D on handicap debut last time. That was her first run after a wind operation and she should strip fitter now. Will have sound claims if she comes on for that run.

Forecasts

Treacherous (3/1), Chess Move (7/2), Dowitcher (9/2), Exchequer (5/1), Excelleration (5/1), Spinart (13/2), Diva Star (12/1), Chica De La Noche (12/1), Sweet And Dandy (16/1)

Excelleration deserves to get his had in front and is certainly respected here dropping back to 7f. Dowitcher will be a danger to all on handicap debut if ready to rock and roll after a five-month break. CHICA DE LA NOCHE has not been in the best of form this year but she is on an attractive mark now as a result and with Silvestre De Sousa on board, this previous C&D winner can bounce back to form.
