American Patrol^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: A Kirby| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 65| BF

10/1

Won a seller at Lingfield (1m2f) in July, and not entirely disgraced on turf next time. Proved a big disappointment on latest start at Wolverhampton, though, and questions to answer now.

Hi Ho Silver²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: T P Queally| T: C F Wall| OR: 62

25/1

Signs of ability in maidens, but return delayed until last month at Leicester, and never dangerous after being steadied at the start. May do better, but hard to be confident after that low-key beginning.

Form: 354-8

Pact Of Steel²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jim Crowley| T: H J L Dunlop| OR: 65

9/4

Has stepped up since returning from a break in August, and got off the mark when beating King Athelstan at Lingfield (1m2f) last time. Should have more to come now he's found his feet.

Baasha¹³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Havlin| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 65WS

25/1

Showed ability last year, but well beaten in two handicap starts this season, weakening sharply at Beverley (blinkered) last time; no surprise to hear that he's since undergone wind surgery, and market will be informative.

Form: 063-00

Reveleon²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: M Appleby| OR: 65

14/1

Nicely backed to win at Nottingham in August and duly got home by a neck to make it a winning start for his new yard. Not discredited in two starts since, but concern that he's run poorly on all four AW starts to date.

Hackbridge^v²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley⁽⁵⁾| T: P Phelan| OR: 64

9/1

Well beaten in the spring, including in headgear, but showed marked improvement to win at Lingfield (1m2f) last month after a break despite hanging left. Up 6lb for that, but may well have more to offer.

Form: 96-5571

Mankind^b⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Edward Greatrex| T: A Watson| OR: 63| BF

10/1

Best effort for current yard when fourth of 12 to Livvys Dream in 1m handicap here on penultimate start, and easy to ignore latest effort when badly hampered. Looks on a fair mark, all told.

Topology^v³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Charles Bishop| T: J Tuite| OR: 57

7/1

Yet to win in 22 starts, but running consistently at present, and placed for the fourth start in a row when 2L third of 10 to Celtic Artisan at Wolverhampton last time. Trying a new trip now, and stamina taken on trust.

Contingency Fee^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Nicola Currie⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 62

25/1

Off the mark dropped into a selling handicap at Brighton in August for Brian Meehan, showing a good attitude. Not dismissed, but this looks a bit deeper, and he will need to improve again on debut for new yard.

Form: 86661

Becky Sharp⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 61

12/1

Claims on the form of her second over 1m2f at Sandown in July, but disappointing upped in trip at Lingfield next time, and others more convincing.

Form: 05-8425

(14)

Roodeparis^p1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Watson⁽³⁾| T: M D I Usher| OR: 60

20/1

Best effort to date when fifth of 11 to Rippling Waters in a 1m maiden here last month. Opening mark demands more, but has scope for better, and cheekpieces deployed for first time here.

Form: 095

Celtik Secret³⁹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: H Morrison| OR: 55WS

33/1

Noted putting in some good late work over 1m2f at Brighton on handicap debut, but again looked short of tactical speed upped in trip at Chepstow last time. May yet do better when things drop right.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Fran Berry| T: Rae Guest| OR: 59

5/1

Took a step forward on her handicap debut upped to 1m2f, finishing second at Lingfield. Not so good on turf next time, but this should be more suitable, and she's not entirely dismissed.

Form: 693-25

Pact Of Steel (9/4), Thistimelastyear (5/1), Topology (7/1), Hackbridge (9/1), Mankind (10/1), American Patrol (10/1), Becky Sharp (12/1), Reveleon (14/1), Carvelas (14/1), Roodeparis (20/1), Contingency Fee (25/1), Baasha (25/1), Hi Ho Silver (25/1), Celtik Secret (33/1)

PACT OF STEEL has returned from a break an improved performer, and looks capable of adding to his recent win at Lingfield. Hackbridge is another last-time-out winner who could easily progress further, and is feared, with Mankind and Roodeparis others to consider in a trappy contest.
