Age: 7|  Weight: 12-1| J: Ross Chapman(3)| T: Miss L Harrison| OR:  101
25/1
Took a backward step when beaten out of sight at Perth in August, but had previously run well to be runner-up off this rating at that venue. Hard to know what to expect, but cannot be ruled out.

Moorlands Mist222
Age: 11|  Weight: 11-12| J: Nathan Moscrop(5)| T: Sara Ender| OR:  98
33/1
On a long, losing run and has been pulled up on his last three starts. Seems to be regressing and comes with risks attached after his spell on the sidelines.

Horse silk
Wyfield Rosep29
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-10| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR:  96| CD
5/2
First run for this stable when making all to win at Sedgefield last month. Plenty to do off 10lb higher, but has to be considered.

Horse silk
What A Gameb39
Age: 7|  Weight: 11-5| J: Mr William Easterby(5)| T: T D Easterby| OR:  91
8/1
Cartmel winner in May, last year, but was having his first run for over a year when well beaten at that track in August. Should come on for the run and is worth noting in the market.

Horse silk
Golans Choicep148
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-5| J: Tom Broughton(7)| T: Olly Williams| OR:  91
20/1
Mixed bag since joining current stable from the point-to-point field. Wears cheekpieces for the first time and they need to have a galvanising effect.
6
Horse silk
Equus Pandorat9
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-2| J: S Bowen| T: P & M Bowen| OR:  88
5/2
Tongue tied for the first time when third of 13 over 2m4f at Perth last time. The equipment is fitted again and he has strong claims with the extra distance of this contest likely to suit.
8
Horse silk
Lawtop Legend18
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-13| J: Jonathon Bewley(3)| T: G Bewley| OR:  85
3/1
Not much encouragement on last two starts, but did run well to be second over C&D in May. Has dropped 4lb and has a fair shout if returning to that earlier form.
9
Horse silk
Kilcullen Ladyp204
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-9| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: H Hogarth| OR:  81
125/1
Unplaced in four starts over hurdles and was pulled up on heavy going at this track when last seen in March. Return to a sounder surface should help, but others hold stronger claims.
10
Horse silk
Solway Berry25
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-7| J: Callum Bewley| T: Miss L Harrison| OR:  79
50/1
Stable companion of Solway Lark who has been beaten out of sight on all three starts over hurdles this year. Needs to improve considerably for her first start in a handicap.
11
Horse silk
Lamh Ar Lamhh,t24
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-0| J: Tom Buckley(10)| T: N J Hawke| OR:  71
9/1
Has shown slightly improved form on last two starts in handicap company. Steps up in trip and she could go well from 1lb out of the handicap.

Forecasts

Equus Pandora (5/2), Wyfield Rose (5/2), Lawtop Legend (3/1), Chanceiton (4/1), What A Game (8/1), Lamh Ar Lamh (9/1), Golans Choice (20/1), Solway Lark (25/1), Moorlands Mist (33/1), Solway Berry (50/1), Kilcullen Lady (125/1)

Verdict

Bottom-weight Lamh Ar Lamh shapes at though this longer trip should suit and is well worth a second look, but the one which makes most appeal is EQUUS PANDORA, who improved for the fitting of a tongue tie last time and looks likely to be suited to this greater stamina test. Others to consider in a tricky handicap are Wyfield Rose, What A Game and Chanceiton.
  1. Equus Pandora
  2. Lamh Ar Lamh
  3. Chanceiton
