Model Guest^b¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Miss Brodie Hampson| T: A Watson| OR: 80

5/1

Fairly useful form, but she remains a maiden following 17 attempts and will probably find one or two too good once more.

Form: 34-0222

Parys Mountain^h,t¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Mr William Easterby| T: T D Easterby| OR: 78| CD

17/2

Landed this race under William Easterby off 1 lb lower mark 12 months ago. Added to his tally at Catterick on penultimate start and shouldn't be far away.

Form: 038914

Two Blondes^b1¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Abbie McCain| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 77| D

80/1

Hasn't got his head in front for the best part of 2 years and while he performed with credit on latest start in this sphere at Newcastle in June, others make more appeal.

Form: 5/400-37

Motashakel²²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Miss Eleanor Williams⁽⁷⁾| T: Evan Williams| OR: 77

80/1

Has acquitted himself fairy well in 4 starts over hurdles since changing hands in October, but passed over back in this sphere from an unfavourable draw.

Fieldsman⁷⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Miss S L Bowen⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 72| D

22/1

Back to form when scoring at Chepstow and Lingfield within space of 3 days in June. However, came up short under a double penalty last time and effectively 3 lb higher now.

Form: 445115

Algaffaal^v1²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Mr Matt Brown⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 72

8/1

Several creditable efforts in defeat since Newcastle victory last spring, including when sixth at Wolverhampton (9.5f) last time. Now tried in a visor and drop back in trip looks a good move.

Form: 752-496

Voltaic¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: Miss Jessica Llewellyn⁽⁵⁾| T: B J Llewellyn| OR: 70

15/2

Won 6f Windsor claimer last autumn for Paul Cole. Has put in good shifts on 2 of his 3 starts for new connections, but this demands a clear career-best.

Form: 251-353

(13)

Stringybark Creek²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: B Roberts⁽⁵⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 70| D

20/1

Rather hit-and-miss since he last got his head in front at Kempton 10 months ago, and will need plenty of luck from stall 13.

Form: 046449

Moxy Mares²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-3| J: Mr Cameron Hillhouse⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 69| D

14/1

Just the one win to his name from 23 starts and needs to bounce back following a tame effort at Newbury last month.

Form: 358-280

(3)

Pacino³²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Mr Eireann Cagney⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 69

5/1

Showed benefit of reappearance run when good second in handicap at Haydock (8.2f) in June. Stamina stretched upped to 10.3f here next time and needs considering back down in trip.

Form: 680-826

(8)

Bertog³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Miss C L Goodwin⁽⁷⁾| T: J Mackie| OR: 68

22/1

Finally got his head in front at Doncaster (7f) in June, but he's none too reliable and has come up short on each of his 3 subsequent outings.

Form: 0-71676

(4)

Wightman¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Miss S Stevens⁽⁷⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 67| BF| D

5/2

Much improved when easy winner of 1m Salisbury apprentice event (good to soft) last week. Below form at Haydock on Thursday, but still respected.

Form: 033314

Precision Storm³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Miss Becky Smith| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 62| D

33/1

Best efforts so far have been on the AW, and he's readily passed over following 3 low-key displays since returning to action in June.

Form: 612-906

Forecasts

Wightman (5/2), Pacino (5/1), Model Guest (5/1), Voltaic (15/2), Penwortham (15/2), Algaffaal (8/1), Parys Mountain (17/2), Moxy Mares (14/1), Stringybark Creek (20/1), Fieldsman (22/1), Bertog (22/1), Precision Storm (33/1), Motashakel (80/1), Two Blondes (80/1)

This drop back in trip will suit PACINO, who performed with credit despite running out of petrol when tried over 10.3f here last time. He remains on an attractive mark and will be the most likely winner unless recent Salisbury scorer Wightman can bounce back from a lesser effort at Haydock on Thursday. Algaffaal and last year's winner Parys Mountain both make each-way appeal.
