(9)

Reassurance^b⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Ella McCain⁽⁷⁾| T: Julia Brooke| OR: 60

5/1

Winner at Thirsk in June. 9/2, made little impression when eighth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 9 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Tim Easterby.

Form: 5-51738

(4)

Indian Vision⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: G Lee| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 59

6/1

Shaped as if retaining his ability when fourth of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (16f, good, 17/2) 53 days ago, short of room over 2f out. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 1125/3-4

(3)

Mr Nice Guy^v¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: P Mulrennan| T: C Hobson| OR: 56

8/1

Fourth of 5 in novice hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good, 16/1) on NH debut 16 days ago, none too fluent. Modest on the Flat, good third at Catterick on return.

Form: 94205-3

Jan De Heem^p⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 55

18/1

25/1, possibly still needed the run when fifth of 11 in handicap at Catterick (13.9f, heavy) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 3550-85

Bolt N Brown^e/s1¹⁹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Tyler Heard⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 54| D

11/5

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 3/1, bit below form fourth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f). Off 6 months. Significantly back up in trip. Eyeshields back on.

Form: 3489-24

(6)

Kitty's Cove^p¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: D Nolan| T: M Todhunter| OR: 54

4/1

Unreliable sort. 12/1, good second of 10 in handicap at Beverley (16.2f, good) 14 days ago (first past the post but subsequently disqualified). First run for yard after leaving Tim Easterby.

Form: 28433D

(5)

Fortia²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Garritty⁽⁵⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 52

20/1

66/1, never looked like being competitive after 6 months off when sixth of 13 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good to firm) 28 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 00538/6

Our Cilla^b⁵²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Harrison Shaw⁽³⁾| T: A Crook| OR: 45

14/1

33/1, never involved when eighth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 52 days ago.

Forecasts

Lion's Vigil (2/1), Bolt N Brown (11/5), Kitty's Cove (4/1), Reassurance (5/1), Indian Vision (6/1), Mr Nice Guy (8/1), Our Cilla (14/1), Jan De Heem (18/1), Fortia (20/1), Gloryella (50/1)

KITTY'S COVE put it all together after a string of solid efforts to score at Beverley a fortnight ago, losing the race in the stewards' room having caused interference late on. She can gain compensation for that on first start for her new yard. Lion's Vigil improved further when runner-up here back in July but may have to settle for silver again, ahead of Reassurance and Bolt N Brown.
