De Little Engine⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 67| D

33/1

Ended turf season with a win but only beaten three rivals in as many starts since reverting to AW where he's won three times previously. Capable here but others in better form.

Form: 33100-6

Forseti^h¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 66| BF| D

7/2

3-10 record for Andrew Balding but 0-6 since joining this yard. Rather inconsistent recent profile but well treated on best form and not ruled out here.

Form: 00063-5

(4)

Kraka^v²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Kevin Lundie⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 64

3/1

14-race losing run since winning at Lingfield in March. He finished seventh of 10 on his last appearance at Wolverhampton (6f) and is best opposed again if running (also Declared at Lingfield on Saturday).

Form: 38347-8

Red Bravo^p1⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: C Hills| OR: 63| D

9/2

Never made the frame in 10 starts since winning at Newmarket on his debut in 2018. Best form suggests this mark may be within range and fair effort last time gives him place claims.

Form: 64674-5

Break The Silence^b¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 61| CD

5/2

Ultra-consistent course specialist gained fourth career C&D success last time out after three seconds here before that. Always makes a bold bid and may well be capable of overcoming latest weight rise from stall one.

Form: 4322-21

(7)

Muqarred^b¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Gemma Tutty⁽³⁾| T: K Tutty| OR: 61| C| D

5/1

Five-time winner here over 1m plugged on into a never nearer sixth behind Break The Silence latest over 7f. Always liable to get behind over this trip so again appeals more as an each-way option despite the weight pull.

Form: 15200-6

Forecasts

Break The Silence (5/2), Kraka (3/1), Forseti (7/2), Red Bravo (9/2), Muqarred (5/1), Sylviacliffs (6/1), Compass Point (20/1), De Little Engine (33/1)

BREAK THE SILENCE is a standing dish round here who simply never runs a bad race. He landed a fourth C&D win last time out and beat two of his more likely dangers today in the process hence him getting the vote to follow up. Frustrating pair Forseti and Red Bravo are both capable off their current marks.
