C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2018. 25/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 14 days ago. Should come on for that (first run for 8 months) and he's a must for the shortlist.
|
Fourteen runs since last win in 2018. 10/1, eighteenth of 21 in handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Hood back on. Stall 12 isn't ideal for this habitual trailblazer.
|
Latest win at Wolverhampton in August. Bit below form third of 6 in handicap at this C&D (7/2) 28 days ago. Couldn't rule out with Oisin Murphy back in the saddle.
|
Lightly-raced winner. Last of 6 in handicap at this C&D (9/1) 18 days ago. Looks up against it.
|
7/2, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Bath (5f, firm) 24 days ago, conceding first run. 3-5 on artificial surfaces and needs considering with Tyler Heard claiming a valuable 7 lb.
|
7/1, career best when winning 12-runner C&D handicap (third victory over C&D) 7 days ago, keeping on well. More needed under a penalty but couldn't rule out all the same.
|
11/1, good third of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (5f, good) 29 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time for this polytrack debut and needs to raise her game a notch.
|
80/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 11 days ago, running on. Tongue strap on 1st time and improvement needed if he's to play a leading role.
|
C&D winner. Well-beaten eleventh of 12 to Jack The Truth in handicap at this C&D (4/1) 7 days ago, badly hampered. Others more persuasive on balance.
|
Twelfth of 15 in handicap (66/1) at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Winner off this mark at Southwell last December and merits respect back on AW, albeit this is his first run on polytrack.
|
Visored for 1st time, career best when winning 7-runner handicap (9/2) at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm) 23 days ago. 5 lb higher mark to contend with but 3-10 on AW and cannot be safely ruled out.
|
Eighth of 12 in handicap (11/1) at Newmarket (5f, good) when last seen in June. Winner of 2 of her 7 AW starts and certainly capable of a bold show off this mark. Has undergone wind surgery.

Forecasts
Benny And The Jets (4/1), Top Breeze (5/1), Jack The Truth (5/1), Grandfather Tom (7/1), A Momentofmadness (15/2), Lancelot Du Lac (8/1), Mercenary Rose (9/1), Queen's Order (16/1), Firepower (16/1), Daschas (22/1), Get Boosting (33/1), Moonraker (125/1)
The vote in this competitive handicap goes to TOP BREEZE, who boasts a good strike rate on the all-weather and he returned to form when hitting the crossbar at Bath last month. It's been a while since the veteran Lancelot Du Lac last got his head in front, but he shaped well back from an 8-month break at Kempton and is feared off his lowest mark for many a year. Mercenary Rose is also respected.
