Restive^h,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: E J Walsh| T: J S Goldie| OR: 65| CD

9/1

Much his best effort this year when winning a low-grade 1m1f handicap at Hamilton in June. Below that form in better events since, and has place claims dropped to a seller, but needs the principals to underperform if he's to win.

Form: 897107

Canneyhill Bob¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: G Lee| T: Kenny Johnson

100/1

Tailed off on first two bumper starts, and probably flattered when seeming to fare a little better in a slowly-run event at Southwell a couple of weeks ago. No appeal on Flat debut.

Carry On Deryck²³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Cam Hardie| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 87

9/4

Out of sorts this season having left Saeed bin Suroor, but normally plies his trade at a much higher level, and clear pick on official ratings. Drop in class should enable him to make a major impact, and high on the shortlist.

Form: 77-6707

(11)

Fast And Friendly³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Nolan| T: F P Murtagh

200/1

Hinted at ability in bumpers, but no promise over hurdles, and makes no appeal on belated Flat debut.

First Flight¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Ben Robinson⁽³⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 73| D

1/1

Classy sort on his day, but not one to trust, and refused to race at Beverley last month. Only just failed in a C&D claimer last time, and would have fair claims if putting his best foot forward.

Form: 34-7R32

(10)

Hayward Field^e/s²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Connor Beasley| T: N Wilson| OR: 45

18/1

Just a low-grade handicapper, albeit not beaten far last time, and he has made the frame in a couple of weak sellers this year. Could sneak a place if others fluff their lines, but has limited win potential.

Form: 50-4535

(1)

Lord Rob¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Harrison Shaw⁽⁵⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 42

50/1

Has made no impact off basement mark in handicaps this year, and hard to see him getting involved in the finish on recent evidence.

Form: 990988

Royal Liberty¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: S H James| T: G A Harker| OR: 50

33/1

Better previous efforts when finishing third of 5 to Anif in a C&D claimer last time, but was 7L behind runner-up First Flight that day, and will struggle to bridge that gap.

Form: 50-8003

(6)

Silk Mill Blue²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Phil Dennis| T: R M Whitaker| OR: 48

25/1

Ran poorly in cheekpieces last time, and just a modest handicapper on balance, but has snippets of form this year which suggest he could sneak into the frame in a race lacking depth.

Form: 18-9550

(4)

Mandarin Princess⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Rowan Scott⁽³⁾| T: Kenny Johnson| OR: 40

200/1

Failed to reach the frame in eight starts when trained by Charlie McBride, and has pulled up no trees either on the Flat or over hurdles for current yard. Official rating of 41 tells its own tale.

Form: 85-5066

(7)

Biz Markee^b²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: B A Curtis| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 52

13/2

Disappointing after a fair start for Hugo Palmer, and has made only a little impact from his falling mark since switching stables in the spring. Has a bit to prove, although drop to selling company could see him in a better light.

Forecasts

First Flight (1/1), Carry On Deryck (9/4), Biz Markee (13/2), Restive (9/1), Hayward Field (18/1), Silk Mill Blue (25/1), Royal Liberty (33/1), Lord Rob (50/1), Newspeak (66/1), Canneyhill Bob (100/1), Mandarin Princess (200/1), Fast And Friendly (200/1)

Only a handful make any appeal here, with the huge drop in class taken to see the formerly smart CARRY ON DERYCK back to winning ways despite some woeful form figures. First Flight was just beaten over C&D last time, and is the main danger, for all his refusal to race earlier in the campaign is a worry. Restive is the likeliest one to take advantage if the top pair bomb out, which is not impossible.
