Handiwork^p²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: P Mulrennan| T: S Gollings| OR: 83

33/1

Started the year with victory at Doncaster (2m½f) but has not been able to add to that since. He was only 1¾L away on his latest effort at Newcastle (2m½) on the AW when he was third of six. Has each-way claims off this mark.

Form: 5-10663

Music Seeker^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Zak Wheatley⁽⁷⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 80| C

12/1

His last success was back in June at York (1m2½f). Has fared modestly well on his last two outings, including when he was fourth of 10 at this course over 1m2f earlier this month. Back up in trip. Worth thinking about.

Turning Gold¹⁹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: T Hamilton| T: N & W Twiston-Davies| OR: 79

20/1

Has been campaigning over hurdles since switching yards in December 2017. He had success at Leicester in a 1m7½f handicap hurdles on his penultimate start. This will be his first run on the Flat since September 2017. Could be off a lenient mark.

Polish^p²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: B A Curtis| T: J Gallagher| OR: 78

14/1

Scored on the second start of his career at Salisbury (1m4f) but has not been able to add to that since. He was fourth of six on his latest run at Newcastle (2m½f) on the AW. Has been eased 2lb. Others are preferred.

Buriram³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 82

9/2

Broke his maiden at Carlisle (1m3f) back in May but has been unable to follow up since. He came close to adding to his tally on his last appearance at Chester (1m6½f) as he was second of 13. Has been raised 4lb but is one to consider.

Goshen¹³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: H Crouch| T: G & J Moore| OR: 80| D

11/10

Is unbeaten since joining handicap company as he was successful at Brighton (1m4f) and then followed it up with a 9L victory at Sandown (1m6f) on his latest appearance. Has gone up 10lb since last success but he is still a big player.

Form: 980-11

Theatro⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: G Lee| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 79

11/2

Has been in good form with two wins from her last four starts. She was only ½L away on her most recent appearance on the track when she came home third of seven at Haydock (1m6f). One for the shortlist off just this 1lb higher mark.

Form: 341613

Goscote⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: P Hanagan| T: H Candy| OR: 70| CD

16/1

Her sole success to date came over this C&D back in July where she was victorious by just a neck. Has been well held in three attempts since. Had just one horse behind her last time in a seven runner field at Ffos Las (2m). Needs to improve.

Forecasts

Goshen (11/10), Buriram (9/2), Theatro (11/2), Music Seeker (12/1), Polish (14/1), Goscote (16/1), Albert's Back (16/1), Turning Gold (20/1), Handiwork (33/1)

GOSHEN has made a mockery of his handicap mark on his two runs this year and even after being raised 10lb here, he is still likely to be off a very workable mark so take the in form gelding to complete a hat-trick of wins. Burriam ran well over the extended 1m6f trip at Chester last time and he can follow that up with another strong display here, while Theatro is running well at the moment and can fill the placings on her second attempt at this trip.
