Family Fortunes⁴⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Scott McCullagh⁽⁵⁾| T: M Madgwick| OR: 88| D

14/1

0-10 on turf but went close on seasonal bow over C&D in June and chance of doing so again from 1lb lower have been well held in stronger grade at Salisbury since.

Arcanada^p³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: R Kingscote| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 86| D

6/1

Gained first turf success since 2016 when scoring over a mile on good to soft ground at Haydock in June, taking advantage of much-reduced mark. Held back there since on quick ground, may do better on forecast surface.

Mr Tyrrell¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 84| CD

6/1

Scored over C&D on reappearance in April, breaking duck at 20th attempt. Also went in at Bath in May and has shaped well at times since. Luckless passage last time at Glorious Goodwood, not discounted.

Spirit Warning¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 89| D

11/8

Model of consistency in five starts this season - 22132 - with an AW win June and close third over C&D subsequently. No reason not to see him in the picture again.

Form: 422132

Sash¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: K Shoemark| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 87| CD

2/1

Lightly-raced Oasis Dream colt, scored nicely over C&D last month before struggling in much stronger fare at Ascot a week later from this increased mark. Should bounce back to form and not finished improving.

Form: 6-15614

Forecasts

Spirit Warning (11/8), Sash (2/1), Arcanada (6/1), Mr Tyrrell (6/1), Family Fortunes (14/1)

A C&D winner on his penultimate start, SASH is back here and getting weight from his four rivals now. Amanda Perrett's charge was foiled in a classy three-year-old race at Ascot since that win from his revised mark but this looks less daunting and, chances are, there is more to come from him. The very consistent Spirit Warning should give him plenty to contemplate while Family Fortunes and Mr Tyrrell can fight it out behind them.
