Glory of Paris⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 79| BF| D

9/4

Victory and two other good efforts, each at Chelmsford, since joining current trainer from Rod Mlllman's yard. In form and feasibly weighted if adapting to this change of surface.

Form: 74321-4

Mont Kinabalu¹²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: G Lee| T: K A Ryan| OR: 78| D

16/1

Scored twice on turf in early summer, last year, but lost his way and failed to place in four subsequent starts. Has been given a break and tries his luck on the AW. Hard to know what to expect, but is certainly not ruled out.

Form: 116666-

Rey Loopy¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 78| CD

5/2

Fourth victory on this surface when scoring over 7f 10 days ago. Effective at this longer trip and 4lb rise is not too harsh.

Form: P2752-1

(6)

Muqarred¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Sanderson⁽⁵⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 74| D

50/1

First run since last April when last of eight on the Southwell Fibresand recently. Needs to do much better, but is 2lb lower and should be sharper this time.

Form: 20145-8

(3)

Paparazzi⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Cam Hardie| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 71| BF| CD

11/4

Clear-cut victory over C&D before finishing second under a penalty four days ago. Has to cope with another 2lb rise, but clearly enters the equation given his current form.

Form: 4309-12

(4)

Newmarket Warrior^p¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: J Fanning| T: I Jardine| OR: 70| BF| CD

5/1

Third behind Paparazzi over C&D last time, but reopposes on 8lb better terms for a beating of just under 5L. Previous run was solid, too, so he is one for the short list.

Form: 15552-3

(2)

Dubai Elegance¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 67

80/1

Former Saeed Bin Suroor-trained mare who has shown little in two starts for current handler. Up in trip off falling handicap mark, but needs to take a step forward.

Form: 5446/0-9

Forecasts

Glory of Paris (9/4), Rey Loopy (5/2), Paparazzi (11/4), Newmarket Warrior (5/1), Mont Kinabalu (16/1), Muqarred (50/1), Dubai Elegance (80/1)

Cases can be made for a few of these and it would be no surprise to see Paparazzi go close in his current vein of form., but he he may struggle to confirm recent C&D running with NEWMARKET WARRIOR at these weights. Mont Kinabalu has the ability to get involved if on a going day, while Glory Of Paris and Rey Loopy have fair claims and are sure to have their supporters.
