Global Tango^v1²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: A McCarthy| T: L McJannet| OR: 83

16/1

Has a good strike-rate on the AW but is 0-9 on turf. His latest outing came at Chelmsford (7f) on the Polytrack where he came home fourth of eight. Visor is on for the first time and is down 2lb in the weights to a mark he has to be respected off.

Form: 164504

I Am A Dreamer^v¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Josephine Gordon| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 85| D

10/1

Scored for the fourth time in his career three starts back at Catterick over this distance. Has struggled on his last two runs though, including latest at Chepstow (7f) where he was last of seven runners. Needs to bounce back.

Reloaded¹⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: George Scott| OR: 85

5/2

Was successful on the second start of his career at Pontefract over 6f. He made her handicap debut last time at Redcar (1m) where he was third of six. Has since been gelded. Likely to produce much more now. Big player.

Form: 613-3

Maksab¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Scott McCullagh⁽⁵⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 80| D

7/2

Scored on the AW at this track earlier this year over 7f but has been unable to add to that since then. His form on turf in the campaign has been modest. He was fifth of 11 last time at Epsom (7f). Others are preferred.

Form: 764445

Gambon¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 82| BF| D

6/1

Has been successful twice in his last four starts. He scored over 6f at Chepstow but then came home fifth of six over that same C&D on his latest appearance when going off as the 11/4 joint-favourite. Up in trip. Worth consideration.

Form: 301515

Kachumba¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Rae Guest| OR: 76| D

7/1

Picked up her second win of the season at this track two starts ago when she prevailed over 7f. Could only finish ninth on his latest appearance Epsom (7f). Remains off the same so she needs to find more here.

Form: 381719

(5)

Fighting Temeraire⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Joey Haynes| T: D K Ivory| OR: 74| BF| CD

4/1

Scored over this C&D back in June. He then followed it up with success at Newmarket over the same distance. Had just one horse behind him last time in a seven runner field over this C&D after going off as the 11/10 favourite. Has to be respected.

Form: 551136

Forecasts

Reloaded (5/2), Maksab (7/2), Fighting Temeraire (4/1), Gambon (6/1), Kachumba (7/1), I Am A Dreamer (10/1), Global Tango (16/1)

RELOADED is already a winner on the track and he did not fare too badly on his handicap debut. This is his first run since being gelded so expect to see an improvement which should see him seal his second victory of his career. Fighting Temeraire knows how to score over this C&D and should be fancied to bounce back from his recent effort to hit the frame here, while although Global Tango has yet to win on turf, he is now down to a mark which helps his chances of finishing close.
