18/1

5f Catterick maiden winner last June but has failed to beat a rival both starts this season, last of 13 in handicap over C&D 15 days ago. Not easy to make a case for.

17/2

Completed quick hat-trick with win at Hamilton in August and has continued in good form, fourth of 11 at Ayr (5f, soft) 25 days ago. Can race off 1 lb lower mark here so must merit consideration.

14/1

Dual 6f winner in 2019 but yet to hit top form this season, seventh at Redcar (6f, heavy) 44 days ago on final run for Adrian Nicholls. Bit to prove for new yard now.

Gorgeous Gobolina^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: Faye McManoman⁽⁵⁾| T: S Corbett| OR: 61| CD

6/1

Low-mileage 4-y-o who is enjoying excellent run of form, landing 5f handicap (10/3) at Newcastle 17 days ago. Up 3 lb but that form is working out well so C&D winner rates big player.

Forecasts

Black Friday (2/1), Fox Hill (11/2), Gorgeous Gobolina (6/1), Primo's Comet (7/1), Pavers Pride (8/1), Lyons Lane (17/2), Autumn Flight (10/1), Amazing Alba (11/1), Twentysixthstreet (14/1), Fashion Advice (18/1), Fendale (20/1)

Lots in with a shout here but GORGEOUS GOBOLINA is really finding her feet now and can boast a C&D win too so she is taken to make it win number three for the season with her recent Newcastle victory proving good form. Black Friday also arrives on the back of a recent success so is greatly feared under a penalty along with dual C&D winner Amazing Alba.
