Candelisa^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Phil Dennis| T: D Loughnane| OR: 79| D

10/1

Ran well to be second here on his penultimate start, and largely reliable, so can be expected to put a rare poor effort at Haydock behind him, and has fair claims if doing so.

Form: 302520

Calder Prince^p1²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 77| BF| D

18/1

Has won only one of his last 21 starts, so not one to go overboard about, but he had valid excuses when stumbling badly at the start at Pontefract, and had run well when third at Haydock (1m, good/soft) prior to that. Cheekpieces on for first time.

Form: 387836

Sezim¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 81| BF

3/1

Beat subsequent winner Harvey Dent when landing a lady riders' event at Chester in June, and possible that he just needed the run after a break at Salisbury last time. One of the more interesting ones here, and worthy of respect.

Form: 22-3214

Twin Appeal⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: Gemma Tutty⁽³⁾| T: K Tutty| OR: 75| CD

15/2

Scored over C&D in July in a slightly lesser race, and has run well to make the frame on both subsequent starts, beaten just over 1L at Redcar last time. Should give another solid account, for all he's vulnerable to less-exposed rivals.

Form: 047134

(9)

Red Seeker^t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Danny Redmond⁽⁵⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 73| CD

6/1

Much improved of late, winning a trio of big-field handicaps at around this trip, including twice over C&D on a sound surface. Defied softer ground last time, and appears to have more to offer on that basis.

Form: 629111

Armed²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 71

16/1

Still a maiden after eight starts, and not progressing. Well held, albeit not knocked about, at Redcar last time, and makes limited appeal for all that run might have been needed.

Form: 347-689

(2)

Pickett's Charge^p,t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 71| D

8/1

Benefited from the fitting of a tongue-tie when winning at Brighton two starts back, and ran at least as well when neck third of 9 to Secret Return at Bath last time. Cheekpieces back on now, and shortlisted having gone well here in the past.

Form: 742313

(3)

Northernpowerhouse^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: G Lee| T: B Smart| OR: 75| BF| D

13/2

Probably unsuited by very soft ground at Musselburgh last time, but running well before that blip, and put up a career-best effort when winning over 7f there in July. Still not fully exposed, so needs a second look.

Form: 8-23215

(5)

Ollivander^v¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 75| CD

10/1

Well placed to win four times this season, including off 5lb lower over C&D last month. Latest win came in a claimer, though, and seemed to struggle off this mark at Catterick last time.

Form: 153114

(1)

Ramesses¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Mathers| T: R A Fahey| OR: 74| BF| D

7/1

Just 1lb higher than when winning over an extended 7f at Ayr last month, and would have a solid chance on that form, but he's been a little disappointing in two runs since, and needs to bounce back.

Form: 354155

Forecasts

Sezim (3/1), Red Seeker (6/1), Northernpowerhouse (13/2), Ramesses (7/1), Twin Appeal (15/2), Pickett's Charge (8/1), Ollivander (10/1), Candelisa (10/1), Armed (16/1), Calder Prince (18/1)

SEZIM may just have needed the outing after a break last time, and with his previous Chester win working out, he's taken to get back to winning ways at the main expense of felloe three-year-old Northernpowerhouse, with the back-to-form Pickett's Charge looking best of the older brigade.
