Escobar^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 108| D

7/1

Smart gelding but arrives on back of below-par sixth of 10 to Safe Voyage in Group 2 at Leopardstown (8f) 21 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 003736

(7)

Ostilio^t³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 108| D

10/3

Smart horse. Best run this season when gamely making all in 4-runner conditions event at Haydock (7f, heavy) 30 days ago. This is tougher but he can make his presence felt again.

Form: 780-241

Qaysar²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R Hannon| OR: 109| D

11/1

Smart gelding. Landed 1m Haydock handicap in July but below par on his last two starts, only sixth of 7 in Superior Mile at Haydock (8.2f) 28 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 971396

Vale Of Kent⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: B A Curtis| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 108| D

17/2

Bounce back to his best when scoring in 7f handicap at Newmarket 7 days ago, making all against favoured rail. This demands more so others make more appeal.

Form: 807941

Brunch¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: M Dods| OR: 100| BF| D

15/2

Progressive form in handicaps this year, gaining third success at York in August, and excellent second of 9 at Ayr (8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Into listed company now but not dismissed lightly.

Form: 1-14112

My Oberon²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 109

11/8

Fast improving colt who arrives on back of excellent second of 7 to Top Rank in Grouop 3 at Haydock (8.2f, soft) 28 days ago. Has more to offer so holds very good claims.

Forecasts

My Oberon (11/8), Khaloosy (11/4), Ostilio (10/3), Escobar (7/1), Brunch (15/2), Vale Of Kent (17/2), Qaysar (11/1)

Ready preference is for MY OBERON who has quickly made up into a smart performer and is taken to go one better after an excellent second to Top Rank in a Group 3 at Haydock last time. Khaloosy finished just behind Willie Haggas' colt there and is taken to chase him home again, with Michael Dods's progressive Brunch looking the pick of the rest.
