Ventura Flame⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Shane Gray| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 71| CD

9/1

C&D winner who arrives on back of good 2¾l second of 6 to Economic Crisis in handicap back here 7 days ago. Can race off a 4 lb lower mark here so she is well worth considering.

15/2

Landed back-to-back 5f wins at Musselburgh and not disgraced from modest draw when eighth of 10 to Economic Crisis back there last time. Much respected.

Age: 11| Weight: 9-7| J: Harrison Shaw⁽³⁾| T: A Berry| OR: 61| CD

11/2

Veteran mare is thriving of late, and she arrives on a hat-trick after wins at Musselburgh and over C&D (by 2¾l from Ventura Flame). Big player turned out quickly under 4 lb penalty.

Form: 176211

11/4

Raced against favoured stand rail when convincing winner of 6f handicap (7/1) at Redcar 5 days ago. Sure to be in the mix again saddling just 5 lb penalty.

Major Pusey^b⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mathers| T: W G Harrison| OR: 64| D

10/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2017 but he arrives in decent form, fourth of 6 to Economic Crisis in handicap here week ago. Claims.

Form: 827-724

Astrophysics^p³²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: Miss L C Siddall| OR: 64| D

20/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in June and recorded creditable sixth of 16 in handicap (33/1) at Beverley (5f) 32 days ago. Another worth considering.

Form: 712206

Shesadabber^b1⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: A Mullen| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 54| CD

9/1

Made it 3-3 over C&D when landing 12-runner handicap (11/2) 8 days ago. Blinkers fitted now and this is tougher under 5 lb penalty but course record makes her hard to ignore.

Form: 711351

Forecasts

Montalvan (11/4), Quanah (3/1), Economic Crisis (11/2), Amazing Alba (15/2), Ventura Flame (9/1), Shesadabber (9/1), Major Pusey (10/1), Popping Corks (14/1), Astrophysics (20/1)

Marginal preference in a tight-knit sprint is for the veteran mare ECONOMIC CRISIS, who is on a roll and taken to complete a quick hat-trick under a mere 4 lb penalty for her commanding C&D win seven days ago. Ventura Flame is handily weighted and sure to have a big say again, along with recent Redcar scorer Montalvan.
