Magnificia³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 60

9/1

Modest maiden for Ed Dunlop but she posted good fifth at Wolverhampton (6f) before run best ignored there last time when raced too freely out wide. Not ruled out for new yard back at 5f.

Form: 8-55950

10/3

Winner at Musselburgh in July and has continued in good form, racing wide when sixth of 13 at Musselburgh (5f) 19 days ago. Holds good claims.

6/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2019, and below-form sixth of 12 in handicap (15/2) at Hamilton (6f) 4 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Heartstar³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Megan Nicholls| T: J Mackie| OR: 50

28/1

Winner at Bath in July but she beat only one in 5f Wolverhampton novice last time. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 94-5109

Lord Of The Glen^b¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Paula Muir| T: J S Goldie| OR: 49| CD

9/4

Four-time C&D winner who gained last of those successes 17 days ago, suited by way race developed and getting up late. Hit with 3 lb rise but he can't be left out of calculations.

Form: 634621

Granny Roz^t1⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Kala Sofie Ingolfsland| T: L Williamson| OR: 46

66/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2018, and last of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 6 days ago. Tongue strap on now but very hard to fancy.

Form: 99-0800

(13)

Murqaab^v¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Ben Sanderson| T: D Shaw| OR: 46

28/1

Only one win from 25 runs, and modest thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (6f) 11 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 638560

(2)

Isabella Ruby^h¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Elisha Whittington⁽⁵⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 45

20/1

Arrives out of sorts, only eighth of 10 in handicap at Catterick (6f) last time. Very hard to make a case for.

Form: 595798

(7)

Tomahawk Ridge¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Darragh Keenan| T: J Gallagher| OR: 45| D

16/1

Losing run is mounting up and his recent form is less than encouraging too, sixth of 10 in 6f handicap at Catterick 17 days ago. Hard to enthuse over.

Form: 0-09076

(6)

Poppy Jag^v³²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-10| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 45| D

33/1

Her sole win came back in 2018, and two runs this season have yielded little promise. Visor back on now but easily opposed.

Form: 6800-78

(9)

La Chica Lobo^h¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Keelan Baker⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 45

50/1

Poor maiden who has yet to reach the frame in 10 starts. Others are much preferred.

Form: 8-65777

Forecasts

Lord Of The Glen (9/4), Gorgeous Gobolina (10/3), Gorgeous General (9/2), Lucky Beggar (6/1), Somekindasuperstar (7/1), Magnificia (9/1), Tomahawk Ridge (16/1), Isabella Ruby (20/1), Murqaab (28/1), Heartstar (28/1), Poppy Jag (33/1), La Chica Lobo (50/1), Granny Roz (66/1)

Lots with chances but it could be worth siding with MAGNIFICIA to open her account now she drops back to 5f for the first time on her debut for the excellent Phillip Makin. In-form Gorgeous Gobolina is feared most with mulitple C&D winner Lord of The Glen also sure to make his presence felt.
