Flaming Marvel³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: David Probert| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 91| CD

11/8

Progressive type and has taken big leaps forward in winning his last two at this track. Overcame problems in the run to win in a good time when upped to this trip latest and likely has a lot more to offer. 6lb rise may not be enough to stop him.

Form: 33/52-11

Bartholomeu Dias¹⁶⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Oisin Murphy| T: C Hills| OR: 92| C

11/4

Goes particularly well here and gained a second course and career win when scoring over 1m4f latest. Suited by being able to dictate the pace there but likely more to offer at this trip and now 2-3 on the AW.

Technological²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: A Kirby| T: G G Margarson| OR: 88| C

10/1

Has won off just 1lb lower previously in his three career wins and has raised his game again in some competitive races the last twice. Suited by drop back in trip and can be competitive.

Form: 4-21624

King's Advice¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: J Fanning| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 83

9/4

By Frankel out the unbeaten Cheveley Park winner Queen's Logic. Won three races in Germany and has won both starts over 1m4f since arriving in the UK. Up 6lb but has won with loads in hand and likely still ahead of the handicapper.

Form: 16/10-11

Glan Y Gors^b⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: C Lee| T: D Thompson| OR: 79

25/1

Three wins from five starts at Newcastle earlier this year and not far off that standard at Kempton latest. However off current mark this company likely to prove too hot.

Forecasts

Flaming Marvel (11/8), King's Advice (9/4), Bartholomeu Dias (11/4), Technological (10/1), Glan Y Gors (25/1)

A small field but a fascinating race with some improving types. King's Advice has every chance of landing a hat-trick and is clearly well-weighted but may face pressure up front from Bartholomeu Dias who too has benefited from easy leads. FLAMING MARVEL was really eye-catching in a fine latest success, where a lot went wrong and is hard to oppose.
