C&D scorer earlier this month and added another win in 16-runner event at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Clearly in very good form but the outside stall is potentially awkward.

1/1
Career best when winning 11-runner C&D handicap 11 days ago, suited by way race developed but still doing it cosily. 6 lb rise may not stop him.

Two wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Bath in July. 16/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces need to help get her back on track.

Off 5 months, may have needed the run at Windsor 14 days ago. Return to AW probably a help and he's on a feasible mark.

First run since leaving Tony Newcombe when last of 15 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 19 days ago. First-time tongue strap needs to make a difference.

Forecasts

Wade's Magic (1/1), Capla Spirit (9/2), Knockabout Queen (13/2), Dark Side Dream (15/2), Hard Solution (17/2), Shecandoo (12/1), Port Noir (16/1), Broughton Excels (18/1), Bernie's Boy (25/1), Carla Koala (150/1)

Verdict

WADE'S MAGIC is a 3-y-o who has got his act together of late and can make light of a 6 lb rise for his C&D success. Knockabout Queen has been given a bit of a chance by the handicapper and could go well back at a track where she's won before. The draw hasn't been kind to Hard Solution but he arrives in top form so still merits respect.

  1. WADE'S MAGIC
  2. KNOCKABOUT QUEEN
