Secret Return¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: Paul George| OR: 81| D

5/1

Has raced really consistently on her last four starts gaining a deserved win at Windsor. Up 4lb but off the back of a career-best is still open to improvement. Likely contender.

Form: 135321

(3)

Juanito Chico^t³⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Bentley| T: S C Williams| OR: 80

12/1

Has had some stiff tasks in handicap company both for William Jarvis and in two starts for his new stable. Possibilities down in grade and back on his last winning mark but needs to raise his game.

Form: 4-80055

(7)

Saryshagann^v1³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 80| D

14/1

Winner at Ayr two starts back but now 7lb higher and subsequently well held at Haydock. Needs to find extra for switch to visor.

Form: 947715

(9)

Vive La Difference¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 80| D

16/1

Has struggled in three starts back from a break and despite ease of 3lb still looks high enough in the weights.

Form: 215808

(16)

Noble Peace²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: A Kirby| T: Mrs L Pearce| OR: 80| D

12/1

Yet to win for current stable but posted a solid effort at Goodwood latest. Seems to reserve his best for there nowadays and remains opposable.

Form: 957053

(13)

Redgrave⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: F Norton| T: J Tuite| OR: 78| D

7/1

Former Charlie Hills inmate who had been in decent form for current stable until a slightly disappointing Newbury effort. May be best waiting for a return to Kempton's 7f.

Form: 661567

(4)

Madeleine Bond¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Nicola Currie⁽³⁾| T: H Candy| OR: 78| D

9/1

Completed a hat-trick last season and now back on the last winning mark. Not racing badly without quite seeing out the mile lately and a return to 7f may be best.

Form: 090385

(8)

Simoon³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: L P Keniry| T: E Walker| OR: 78| D

9/2

Won on his second start for Andrew Balding and yet to add to that for current stable but has been close, racing consistently his last four starts. Worth a drop back to this trip and rates a leading player off a good Chester run.

Form: 264423

(5)

Villette¹¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: D K Ivory| OR: 77WS

25/1

Returns from wind surgery for first run since July. Lightly-raced but is a touch high in the weights and this trip likely to be on the sharp side.

Form: 68-5717

(6)

Dark Magic¹³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: R Havlin| T: D K Ivory| OR: 74

66/1

Maiden winner over 7f here but has returned from a break with two tailed off runs where he's failed to beat a rival. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 1002-09

(2)

Fleeting Freedom^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Jessica Cooley⁽⁷⁾| T: A Bailey| OR: 75

20/1

15-race maiden but has threatened to breakthrough on a few occasions. Has struggled the last twice seen in this grade and others looks stronger candidates.

Form: 437372

(11)

Consultant¹⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 73

8/1

Open to more improvement than most having only had four starts. Progressed on handicap debut over this distance but is now 4lb higher and up in grade and this will require a fair bit more.

Form: 445-2

(14)

Tukhoom²²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: M Herrington| OR: 70| D

20/1

No win since his Goodwood maiden success (1m) for Marcus Tregoning in June 2016 but placed three times in last four. This though is much tougher.

Form: 50-2033

(15)

Beverley Bullet^p¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Jason Watson| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 69

8/1

Gained a fifth career win in testing conditions at Redcar and the extra furlong is no problem. Up 3lb and class but this would require a career-best.

Form: 816561

Forecasts

Simoon (9/2), Secret Return (5/1), Why We Dream (6/1), Redgrave (7/1), Consultant (8/1), Beverley Bullet (8/1), Madeleine Bond (9/1), Juanito Chico (12/1), Noble Peace (12/1), Saryshagann (14/1), Dashing Poet (14/1), Vive La Difference (16/1), Tukhoom (20/1), Fleeting Freedom (20/1), Villette (25/1), Milan Reef (50/1), Dark Magic (66/1)

Secret Return is racing to a consistent level and the in-form mare has every chance of following up her latest success. WHY WE DREAM is lightly-raced, progressive and has a likeable attitude. She gets further so a strong run mile may really suit. Simoon is also back in distance and with that likely to help, he rates a danger.
