9/1

18/1, last of 11 in handicap at York (11.8f, good) 27 days ago, possibly amiss. Others more persuasive.

Form: 500720

Uther Pendragon^p⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: L P Keniry| T: J S Moore| OR: 68| D

7/1

Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, firm, 14/1) 5 days ago. Not shaping as if about to come good, but can't be completely dismissed.

Blistering Barney^h³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mathers| T: C N Kellett| OR: 64

11/2

Hooded for 1st time, good second of 10 in handicap (14/1) at Ripon (9.8f, good to soft) 33 days ago, having run of race. Still needs to find a bit more.

Form: 535-052

Mac Ailey¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 63| BF| D

13/8

One win from 22 Flat runs. Good second of 9 in handicap (9/4) at Hamilton (9.2f, soft) 12 days ago, clear of rest. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 203252

Camile^p,t¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 62

7/2

Below form third of 9 in handicap (4/1) at Hamilton (9.2f, soft) 12 days ago, probably in need of the run. Capable of getting involved if he strips fitter for that.

Form: 442/81-3

(5)

Dutch Coed^p1¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Hart| T: T Davidson| OR: 57| D

12/1

Good second of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, soft, 12/1) 13 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Well treated if he can take another step forward on just his third outing for this yard.

Form: 0-40902

Bad Rabbit⁷⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Cam Hardie| T: R Menzies| OR: 58

33/1

40/1 and visored for 1st time, ninth of 13 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good) 78 days ago. Has work to do.

Form: 545-859

(4)

Tarnhelm²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Rhona Pindar⁽⁷⁾| T: W Storey| OR: 49

16/1

Untrustworthy individual. Latest win at Thirsk in June. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap (22/1) at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) 27 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Return to this trip will suit.

Forecasts

Mac Ailey (13/8), Camile (7/2), Paddyplex (5/1), Blistering Barney (11/2), Uther Pendragon (7/1), Ours Puissant (9/1), Dutch Coed (12/1), Zealous (14/1), Tarnhelm (16/1), Bad Rabbit (33/1)

Having come well clear of the remainder when runner-up at Hamilton 12 days ago, the in-form MAC AILEY is fancied to go one better despite a 3-lb rise. Dutch Coed and his former stablemate Paddyplex both arrive on the back of encouraging placed efforts, so they're also respected.
