I Can¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Nicola Currie| T: Sir M Todd| OR: 68

10/1

Has been running well at this track in the past and was unlucky to not finish closer after meeting interference in 7f handicap last time. Dropped 1lb and trip should suit. Respected.

Form: 3/3955

Danecase^p,t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Angus Villiers⁽⁷⁾| T: David Dennis| OR: 67

25/1

Placed the last twice before mediocre sixth over 7f handicap here when having the prime run of the race. Looks high enough in the handicap so others are more persuasive.

Form: P-08336

Entertaining¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: R Hannon| OR: 70

14/1

Had been generally running to his mark before poor 10th in Wolverhampton handicap (1m) earlier this month. Others appeal to win more but jockey booking is a plus.

Form: 4-52950

Roman Spinner^t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: David Probert| T: Rae Guest| OR: 67| CD

7/2

Course specialist will all wins coming at this track. Was below form when seventh in 7f handicap here last time out and last win came in 2018. Place claims if returning to best form.

Form: 422667

Walkman^t1⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: M Dwyer| T: Tim Pinfield| OR: 69

8/1

Had looked hard to place but was a fair fifth in 7f handicap on stable debut in early September. Not seen since but may do better in time for this handler.

Form: 7-70785

Black Medick²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: David Egan| T: Mrs L J Mongan| OR: 68| D

16/1

Winner at Windsor back in July but well held since including sixth in Lingfield handicap (7f) just under a month. Looks like that win was a fluke now.

Form: 159446

Choral Music³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Rob Hornby| T: J E Long| OR: 65| CD

16/1

Good effort when second here in June but out of sorts since, including eighth of nine at Chelmsford (7f) just over a month ago. Limited appeal.

Form: 329608

Keeper's Choice¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Charles Bishop| T: D J Coakley| OR: 65| D

50/1

Not the best form to offer on the flat, including tailed off last at Windsor (1m) before truncated effort over hurdles at Huntingdon (2m) last time. Easily opposable on current form.

Form: 0-30060

(10)

Crimewave^p³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J Mitchell| T: Tom Clover| OR: 68

4/1

Generally holds his mark well without winning and put up fine effort in defeat when close fourth at Wolverhampton (1m1f) last time. Back in trip and cheekpieces are on. Place claims again.

Form: 434554

Takeonefortheteam¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Liam Jones| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 64| CD

9/1

Looked hard to place but posted career best effort to land C&D in ready style earlier this month. 5lb rise looks slightly harsh but should be thereabouts once again.

Form: 284541

Island Glen²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Watson| T: H Main| OR: 67

16/1

Lightly raced whose sole win came at Newcastle last November but folded tamely into 11th in 1m handicap at that track last time. Looks a regressive sort.

Form: 01-590

(4)

Kings Royal Hussar⁷⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: A King| OR: 67

7/1

Not far away from winning this season and held form well once again when staying on fourth over C&D in August. Not seen since but solid each-way claims.

Form: 5-29334

(8)

Andaleep²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: L P Keniry| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 67

20/1

Remains a maiden and no signs of that stopping when down the field in 1m3f contest here on latest start. Back down in trip but offers limited appeal.

Form: 43774-8

Forecasts

Roman Spinner (7/2), Crimewave (4/1), Kings Royal Hussar (7/1), Walkman (8/1), Toro Dorado (8/1), Takeonefortheteam (9/1), I Can (10/1), Entertaining (14/1), Choral Music (16/1), Black Medick (16/1), Island Glen (16/1), Andaleep (20/1), Danecase (25/1), Keeper's Choice (50/1)

A handicap where they all look closely treated from their marks, preference is for TAKEONEFORTHETEAM to defy the rise and land another C&D contest. His victory last time was taking and against rivals who have a bit to prove, he looks a solid selection. I Can has been running well at this track and was arguably hard done by last time so can't be discounted, while while the likes of Crimewave and Kings Royal Hussar possess similar profiles in they run well but fall short of the required mark to win each time.
