Searching^p⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Danny McMenamin⁽³⁾| T: G Harris| OR: 116

5/2

Resumed winning ways at Market Rasen (20.6f) in July and dispelled a lesser effort at Stratford when keeping on for third at Uttoxeter (20f) 6 days ago. Can get involved with a repeat.

Form: 65P-173

Wells De Lune^p1,t¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr Peter Bryan⁽⁷⁾| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 129| D

14/1

Picked up a rare win away from Cartmel when taking a selling handicap at Fakenham (20f) on New Year's Day. Well held upon returning this summer but no doubt a player on these terms if bouncing back.

Form: 41-00P9

Horse Force One⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-4| J: R Johnson| T: P Hobbs & J White| OR: 117| CD

7/4

Dual course bumper winner who made it fourth time lucky over timber when landing a C&D maiden 7 days ago, jumping boldly and in command between the last 2. Still low mileage and claims down in grade.

Form: 113/3P-1

Lovato^b¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Cillin Leonard⁽⁷⁾| T: Dr R D P Newland| OR: 119

12/1

Fairly useful chaser/hurdler at his best but proved to be a disappointment this summer, running poorly on heavy ground at Bangor (19.5f) late last month. Blinkers now the headgear of choice.

Form: 41P-68P

Percy Street^b,t¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: T Scudamore| T: D Pipe| OR: 113

16/5

Not the most genuine of types but hard to knock placed efforts here (21.5f) and Fontwell in recent weeks. Possibly unsuited by conditions when beaten at Bangor but feasible to expect bounce back.

Form: 43-5227

D'waterside^v1⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Page Fuller⁽³⁾| T: Mrs K Stephens| OR: 82

150/1

Poor maiden who looks set for another struggle on these terms. Visored.

Form: 67/09-68

Dollar And A Dream^t²²

Age: 11| Weight: 10-12| J: J J Burke| T: T R George| OR: 72

66/1

Winless for Michael Mullineaux and disappointing both starts upon joining present yard. Easy enough to look elsewhere down in grade.

Form: 7369/5-P

Londonia^t²⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Kielan Woods| T: D Killahena & G McPherson| OR: 105| D

17/2

Respectable efforts on AW earlier this year and didn't shape badly when runner-up over hurdles at Stratford in July. Seemingly not 100% at Southwell since but others make more appeal in any case.

Form: 3634/2P

Forecasts

Horse Force One (7/4), Searching (5/2), Percy Street (16/5), Oxwich Bay (5/1), Londonia (17/2), Lovato (12/1), Wells De Lune (14/1), Dollar And A Dream (66/1), D'waterside (150/1)

A tricky seller with the vote in favour of low-mileage 9-y-o HORSE FORCE ONE. He strictly has work to do on these terms but he may well have a bit more to offer at this sort of level judged on his course success 7 days ago. Searching, Percy Street and Oxwich Bay head up the dangers.
