Cox Bazar^t²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Gabriele Malune⁽³⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 62| D

12/1

Six time French sprint winner but hit and misses out of the stalls of late for current handler and has been badly out of form. Eased 12lb since last British run but more needed on recent evidence.

Form: 790999

(5)

Arzaak^b²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Josephine Gordon| T: C Wallis| OR: 61| CD

5/1

C&D winner on final start for Chris Dwyer last November but hasn't shone in most races for current yard, although showed a bit more when third at Brighton penultimate start and kept on when unplaced last time out.

Form: 86U636

(9)

Atty's Edge²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: L Morris| T: C Mason| OR: 60| BF| D

6/1

Built on previous solid run when scoring at Chepstow on penultimate start and possibly unsuited by heavy ground when beaten favourite latest. Jockey booking catches the eye.

Form: 086215

(3)

Piazon^b,e/s²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Nathan Evans| T: Julia Brooke| OR: 60| CD

4/1

Six-time C&D winner who ran well when third on turf at Redcar last time. Back on workable mark and likely to go well here at his favourite venue.

Form: 231603

(1)

Classic Pursuit^v⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: S H James| T: Mrs Marjorie Fife| OR: 57| CD

15/2

Last win came over C&D last winter off an 18lb higher mark. Generally disappointing on turf for current handler this year but not without hope back here if things go his way.

Form: 539079

(10)

Miaella^p¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 55

16/1

Eight-race maiden campaigned mainly on AW but races for first time here on Fibresand. Fair fourth last time at Lingfield and is not without hope if taking to this surface off 3lb lower mark.

Form: 066784

(8)

Young Tiger^h¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: A Mullen| T: T P Tate| OR: 54| D

13/2

Infrequent winner but popped up to score last time at Newcastle, staying on well to score by a neck. 6lb hike looks harsh but come here in good form and another bold show is quite possible.

Form: 845731

(2)

Loulin^t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 48

6/1

13-race maiden who returned from wind surgery to run with credit when fifth of 14 at Newcastle last time over 6f. Drop back in trip on this surface is interesting but does need to raise his game to score.

Form: 8-49305

(6)

Tadaany^v²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: T Eaves| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 48

25/1

4-60 tells its own story who has run well enough recent starts, although hasn't looked a winner-in-waiting on either occasion. 2lb lower mark a step in right direction but likely to find a few too good once again.

Form: 043065

(7)

Bluella^t,v²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: George Rooke⁽⁷⁾| T: R Brisland| OR: 47| CD

16/1

25/1 shock winner here in August and again ran well at this track in September. Quite able to take a hand here with 7lb claim doing her no harm at all.

Form: 777140

Forecasts

Piazon (4/1), Arzaak (5/1), Atty's Edge (6/1), Loulin (6/1), Young Tiger (13/2), Classic Pursuit (15/2), Cox Bazar (12/1), Bluella (16/1), Miaella (16/1), Tadaany (25/1)

ATTY'S EDGE has been in decent form of late and appeared not to have coped with heavy ground last time. His previous runs give him a solid chance here. Bluella won over C&D in August and with a 7lb claimer taking her down to a low mark she could prove dangerous, while Piazon, a course specialist, is another who should be thereabouts. Arzaak is one fo the likelier outsiders to be in the mix if things drop his way.
