14/1
Experienced sprinter who has won seven times, three of those wins have come this year. He was fifth of eight last time out at this course over 6f. Dropping back down in trip now. Has to be respected from his latest mark.

11/2
A C&D winner who last scored back in August at Doncaster (5f). Ran well in a 22 runner field at York last time out when he came home in third place. Capable of success from this mark so is one for the shortlist.

Has fared well in all four of his appearances on the AW, with two victories to his name. He prevailed over this C&D two starts back, while last time he was second of five at Chelmsford (5f). Remains off the same mark. Big player.

11/2
Was successful over this C&D two starts ago where he finished his race strongly to get up in the closing stages. Came home fourth of 22 last time at York (5f) after going off at 40/1. One to think about here.

6/1
Has been in good form this year where she has scored twice. She was third of 13 in a Listed race at Bro (6f) in Sweden last time, beaten by just a neck. Down in trip now and back in handicap company so she can't be discounted.

Prevailed at Musselburgh (5f) three runs ago where he made all, holding on gamely by ½L. Could only finish 17th or 22 at York (5f) on his latest start. Needs to bounce back from his latest effort, this will be easier though.

33/1
Was successful twice on the AW early in 2019 but has struggled for form since then. He was sixth of eight on his latest outing at this course over 6f. Is down 2lb in the weights but is hard to make a case for.

20/1
Has won three times over this C&D, including back in February. He was only ¾L away last time out over this C&D when he was second of six runners. Remains off the same mark so he is one to think about.

11/4
Completed a hat-trick of wins at Windsor (6f) in August. Has not won in two starts since then, although he has not been too far away, including when he was fourth of 11 at Kempton (6f) last time. Has each-way claims.

Forecasts

Yimou (11/4), Motagally (7/2), Rocket Action (4/1), Orvar (11/2), The Daley Express (11/2), Puds (6/1), Watchable (14/1), Moon Trouble (14/1), Holmeswood (16/1), Just That Lord (20/1), Moonraker (33/1)

Verdict

MOTAGALLY can complete a hat-trick of wins here at a track he has had C&D success at. He was readily clear in the closing stages last time at this course so he should be able to defy his 8lb rise in the weights. Rocket Action was second off this mark at Chelmsford last time out and he may have to settle for the runner-up spot again here, while Orvar should enter your calculations as he more than capable from this mark.
  1. Motagally
  2. Rocket Action
  3. Orvar
