Hollander^b,t²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 49

11/4

Mostly below-par this season but only two respectable runs have come over C&D so seems to like this track. 6lb lower than fair fourth here in July so not out of it on that effort.

Form: 874007

Captain Ryan¹⁵⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: L P Keniry| T: G Deacon| OR: 49| D

25/1

Eight career wins but all have come at either Bath or Wolverhampton. Has failed to exploit falling handicap in recent starts when well held and is hard to enthuse over on recent evidence.

Form: 430508

Jaganory^v¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽⁵⁾| T: C Mason| OR: 48| D

6/1

Seven-time turf winner but has yet to trouble the judge on AW in ten attempts, although has been placed five times. Kept on when third over C&D last time and decent young rider's 5lb claim helps the cause.

Form: 505533

Moneta^v1⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: David Probert| T: R Harris| OR: 49

11/2

12-race maiden probably best at this trip and is tried here in a first-time visor. Not disgraced at Wolverhampton latest but does need to improve to score.

Carla Koala^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Ellie Mackenzie⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss N L-Beavis| OR: 47

20/1

Maiden who tends to race close to the pace but showed little last term and again this spring. Did better on return from 168-day absence when third past the post over C&D last time and may have turned the corner.

Form: 60-977D

Penwood^b¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Charles Bishop| T: J Tuite| OR: 46

7/2

Has plummeted down the handicap in recent months and did show a bit more at Wolverhampton last time over this trip when blinkered first time. More needed but interesting to see if headgear help the cause once again.

Form: 9-49646

Vino Rosso⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Blanshard| OR: 47

16/1

Regressive form since finishing a close third over this trip at Lingfield in mid-summer. Very hard to enthuse over on what she's achieved last three starts and has a lot on her plate.

Form: 005800

Drop Kick Murphi⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: A McCarthy| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 45| D

6/1

All four wins have come on turf and has looked a shadow of himself in 10 attempts so far on AW. Ran creditably after long absence in heavy ground recently and will be fresher than most but artificial surface a concern.

Form: 37336-4

Illustrious Spirit^p1¹⁵²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: A Stronge| OR: 45WS

33/1

Showed poor form in six starts for Archie Watson and was eventually well beaten on only start for current yard over 7f at Lingfield in June having led to 2 out. Returns from wind surgery and is less exposed than some in this event.

Form: 60076-0

Diamond Cara^v⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: M Dwyer| T: S C Williams| OR: 45

10/1

Well beaten all seven starts and has shown very little to enthuse over. Hard to imagine she's up to winning this and is impossible to recommend.

Forecasts

Hollander (11/4), Prince Rock (3/1), Penwood (7/2), Moneta (11/2), Drop Kick Murphi (6/1), Jaganory (6/1), Diamond Cara (10/1), Vino Rosso (16/1), Carla Koala (20/1), Captain Ryan (25/1), Satchville Flyer (25/1), Illustrious Spirit (33/1)

Most of these are strugging at the moment so it would not be the biggest surprise if top weight HOLLANDER proves good enough to land the spoils. He has run well on both previous visits here and is dropped in grade. Jaganory comes into the equation and his rider's 5lb allowance is a positive, while Drop Kick Murphi shaped well enough after a long absence when returning to the fray recently and could build on that. Illustrious Spirit is less exposed than most and has hinted she may have a little more to give, while Prince Rock is another worth considering.
