Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Billy Garritty⁽⁵⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 72| D

17/2

Fairly useful winner at 17f in bumpers. Matched the pick of his maiden form when third of 5 on Ripon handicap debut/reappearance but was below form in similar event there last time.

Form: 328-36

Red Tornado¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 10-1| J: J Garritty| T: C W Fairhurst| OR: 71| D

10/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2014 and only seventh of 8 in handicap at Redcar (16f, heavy, 25/1) 19 days ago. Still to conclusively prove his stamina for this trip.

Form: 7400-27

Alexanderthegreat^v1³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 70

4/1

Third at Wolverhampton in July and wasn't seen to anything like best effect when eighth of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (16f, good) since. Not one to write off in a change of headgear.

Form: 12/4238

(7)

Wadacre Galoubet²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: F Norton| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 68

5/1

Showed a good attitude to double his tally at Beverley in June. Hasn't returned in the same form following 2 months off but was possibly unsuited by conditions at Musselburgh (heavy) last time.

Form: 15-4186

(3)

Bailarico^b²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Edward Greatrex| T: W Greatrex| OR: 60

4/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2018 but ran respectably at Lingfield 3 weeks ago and has eased a bit further in the weights.

Form: 760487

Good View⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Cam Hardie| T: D O'Meara| OR: 69

11/2

Shaped well on first start for David O'Meara when fourth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (11.8f, soft) last week. Has stamina to prove over this significantly longer trip but remains open to improvement.

Form: 0854

(4)

Lizzie Loch¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: T Eaves| T: A C Whillans| OR: 56

4/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable third of 10 in handicap (13/2) at Musselburgh (14f, good) 11 days ago. Up in trip and should continue to run well.

Form: 7-23243

Forecasts

Bailarico (4/1), Lizzie Loch (4/1), Alexanderthegreat (4/1), Wadacre Galoubet (5/1), Good View (11/2), Rory And Me (17/2), Red Tornado (10/1)

A tricky race to solve but there's a chance Mark Johnston's WADACRE GALOUBET may get a soft lead, so with that in mind, he receives the tentative vote. Lizzie Loch's consistency is hard to knock so she's the percentage call for the forecast.
