Rusper Dreams¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: D C Costello| T: J A Osborne| OR: 61| BF| D

3/1

Much improved since being gelded and showed he was still heading the right way when a close third at Southwell. Has little to find on return to polytrack.

Form: 99801-3

(8)

Ample Plenty⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S Donohoe| T: D M Simcock| OR: 60

10/1

Yet to get competitive in three novice events but could be a better proposition now handicapping at a modest level.

Form: 600-

Nguni^t¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Raul Da Silva| T: P & O Cole| OR: 59

16/1

Has made little progress since going handicapping but mark continues to slide. Will appreciate the return to 7f but has a lot to find on current form.

Form: 8488-7

Lysander Belle⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: David Probert| T: Mrs S Leech| OR: 59

12/1

Below her best on stable debut and tackles a new trip having been sprinting. Claims on her top efforts but perhaps has too many questions to answer.

Form: 56848-

Rajman^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: Tom Clover| OR: 58

5/1

Mark has been climbing without winning but closely matched with Rusper Dreams on Chelmsford form. However that rival has shaped better since.

Form: 92203-5

Nananita¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Megan Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 57| BF

5/1

Consistent enough but remains an 11-race maiden. Failed to stay when last trying this trip at Wolverhampton, but an inside draw on this easier track may help. Stable in form.

Form: 05226-3

(11)

Magnetic¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Liam Keniry| T: J S Moore| OR: 57

66/1

Has failed to get involved in three races here and in France. Makes handicap debut off a mark that looks unattractive.

Form: 00-9

(14)

Global Acclamation^b1⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Havlin| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 56

7/1

Has failed to deliver on debut promise and blinkers tried this time. Jockey booking has been a positive lately.

Form: 55780-

(3)

Quarto Cavallo¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: A West| OR: 55

25/1

Has shown modest ability so far but lightly raced and open to improvement now tackling an extra furlong from a good draw.

Form: 447-8

(4)

Lincoln Spirit⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: A Kirby| T: D O'Meara| OR: 54| C

6/1

Off the mark here last week over 6f when drawn wide and not handling the bend. Showed a good attitude to fight back and not unduly punished by the handicapper. Extra furlong should not be an issue so hard to dismiss.

Form: 55798-1

Dancing Jaquetta³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Liam Jones| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 50

33/1

Half-sister to enough winners to suggest it is too early to write her off. Makes handicap debut over new trip and yard are going well.

Form: 777-

(2)

Hurricane Speed^p1²¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: F Norton| T: K A Ryan| OR: 45

8/1

Has barely beaten a rival in three starts and has been gelded since his last run in June. Cheekpieces added.

Form: 090-

Jasmine B¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Darragh Keenan⁽⁵⁾| T: J Ryan| OR: 45

40/1

Poor maiden who has been beaten an aggregate of 71L on her first two starts in handicaps. Officially rated 20lb below this basement mark.

Form: 8800-0

Forecasts

Rusper Dreams (3/1), Rajman (5/1), Nananita (5/1), Lincoln Spirit (6/1), Global Acclamation (7/1), Hurricane Speed (8/1), Miss Green Dream (8/1), Ample Plenty (10/1), Lysander Belle (12/1), Nguni (16/1), Quarto Cavallo (25/1), Dancing Jaquetta (33/1), Jasmine B (40/1), Magnetic (66/1)

LINCOLN SPIRIT overcame a wide draw to score here last week and showed a good attitude to fight back after losing her place. She is marginally higher in the weights and the way she rallied suggested the extra furlong will not be an issue. Rusper Dreams is in good form and rates the principal danger, whilst Nananita is a consistent sort who is worth another try at this trip. Ample Plenty looks interesting on handicap debut and Global Acclamation would be a danger if blinkers prompted a return to his best.
