4/1

C&D winner registered a victory in a 1m handicap at Newbury (good) in a big field on seasonal debut in May. Regressed since then however and others hold stronger claims.

12/1

Finished runner-up in a couple of 7f novice races on the AW at Lingfield earlier this year. Gelded since latest start and is interesting stepping up in trip on handicap and turf debut.

Form: 9-22

11/8

Broke his maiden when registering a 2L victory in a 1m handicap at Newbury (good-to-firm) earlier this month. Raised 6lb for that victory and is one to note in this contest.

5/2

Narrowly beaten in a small field handicap over an extended 1m at Beverley (good-to-firm) eight days ago. Strong claims off a 2lb lower mark on this occasion.

Form: 1-58452

Conspiritor¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 72| CD

11/2

Victorious in a three runner C&D handicap on firm ground a fortnight ago. Raised 1lb for that victory and likely more needed if he's to take this event.

Form: 637-361

Forecasts

Canal Rocks (11/8), Welcoming (5/2), Wind In My Sails (4/1), Conspiritor (11/2), Liliofthelamplight (8/1), Shake Me Handy (12/1)

WELCOMING ran well off a higher mark when narrowly beaten last time out and she can go one better than when finishing runner-up that day. Second place can go the way of Canal Rocks who was a winner at Newbury on his most recent appearance while bottom weight Conspirator, the winner of a small field race last time out can finish third.
