7/4

Won in good style on his final start as a juvenile and picked up where he left off with a win at Windsor on his belated return to action last month. Likely more to come and a 5lb higher mark may not be insurmountable for this unexposed individual.

Form: 1621-1

Gold Filigree¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 93| C| D

3/1

Enjoyed a profitable season and also a bonus that she's already got a course success to her name. Equally effective over 5f & 6F and has a good relationship with Shane Kelly. Up 5lb for her Chelmsford win last time so career-best now required.

Buffer Zone^b1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: J Mitchell| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 87

7/2

Dual 6f winner but still has scope for improvement in handicaps. First attempt at the minimum trip and possible his style of running may leave him flat-footed if there isn't a strong enough pace. First-time blinkers may help him at the gates.

Bahuta Acha^b1¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: S H James| T: D Loughnane| OR: 84| D

22/1

Sports blinkers for the first time and making his debut on an AW surface. Also looks a little high in the weights after posting two moderate efforts since his 5f win at Catterick last month.

Fool For You⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 84| D

17/2

Holding his form well and possible she'd have been even closer at York last week had the blindfold not been removed late at the start. Up 1lb but still difficult to rule out and noteworthy that she gets on well with today's rider, who claims 5lb.

Joegogo¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Callum Shepherd| T: P D Evans| OR: 83| CD

14/1

Been kept very busy this season but hasn't enjoyed much success since his C&D win back in February. In fair form on turf but rated better on the AW, the gelding can help set a good tempo but looks vulnerable to a sucker punch in this company.

9/1

Winner over 6f at Leicester in July and been kept on the go with four outings within the last month since. Backed it up with a 5f victory at Ascot but below par last twice. A bit to prove now.

Lord Of The Glen^b⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: Jane Elliott⁽³⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 78| D

33/1

Likes the surface at Newcastle and three wins to his name at that course. Yet to race here, though, and may just need this having been on the sidelines since June. Career-best required from his current mark also a negative.

Forecasts

Kick On Kick On (7/4), Gold Filigree (3/1), Buffer Zone (7/2), Fool For You (17/2), Procedure (9/1), Helvetian (12/1), Joegogo (14/1), Bahuta Acha (22/1), Lord Of The Glen (33/1)

A tough one to call but with the likes of Joegogo capable of setting a decent pace, things may unfold nicely for KICK ON KICK ON, who is still very lightly raced and may be able to extend his winning sequence to three on the bounce despite a 5lb higher mark following his successful return at Windsor in July. Fool For You is another that is in good form and cannot be discounted, while a bold effort should also be with the compass of Buffer Zone if he gets a strong pace on his first attempt over an extended five furlongs.
