Was a 2L winner from 6lb lower last time out over this trip at Nottingham (runner-up won next time). Rated 6lb higher now but claiming rider booked again and should be in the mix.

Twice scored around Chelmsford on the AW after joining this trainer, latest in March. Shaped well twice returned to turf and below-par run in the Stewards' Cup at Glorious Goodwood can be overlooked. Should go well.

Ran well enough on first try over 5f at Beverley 12 days ago, despite fluffing the start somewhat. Tongue tie left off now but capable of challenging if getting away alertly.

Twice won on the AW back in the spring over 6f, not achieving all that much in truth. Didn't run badly at Yarmouth last month but progress has stalled and left trainer James Tate since.

Debut scorer last season, but has failed to add to that. Well below part in her last three runs, and this former Listed runner-up now has plenty to prove.

8/1
Four-time winner in 2018, all over 5f, but has yet to fire in four starts this year. Shaped much better for a long way at Chepstow (5f, good to firm) recently but ultimately faded. Needs to build on that with another 2lb given back.

Twice won over 6f at Yarmouth last year, including a handicap off 82, but has beaten precious little home in four runs this year for new trainer. Tongue tie reached for now, big bounce-back demanded.

Victorious over 6f at York (good to firm) in July 2016 but struggled since finishing runner-up over 6f at Lingfield in February last year. Market support would be notable having placed off much higher marks in the past.

Forecasts

Restless Rose (9/4), King Robert (9/4), Grandfather Tom (3/1), Pettochside (7/1), Glamorous Rocket (8/1), Nautical Haven (14/1), Elizabeth Bennet (14/1), Autumn Splendour (16/1), Solar Park (20/1), Daphinia (20/1)

Verdict

An all-the-way winner at Nottingham last month, GRANDFATHER TOM can go in again here from his new mark. The form of his previous start was boosted when the runner-up scored at Pontefract in the week and this looks a good spot for Robert Cowell's charge. A big danger is King Robert, who had twice shaped well on turf this summer prior to wilting in the heat of the Stewards' Cup at Glorious Goodwood last week. Veteran Pettochside is another to be concerned about while Restless Rose is capable of challenging under in-form Oisin Murphy.
