10/3

Good second of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good, 25/1) 21 days ago. Should be competitive off the same mark here with conditions in his favour.

Form: 2220-02

Le Reveur^v¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Ryan Tate| T: M Murphy| OR: 70| D

14/1

Latest win at Ayr in July. First run since leaving Sir Mark Prescott Bt when fifth of 14 in handicap (18/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 12 days ago, better placed than most. Others preferred.

Form: 261145

Stopnsearch³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carson| T: B R Johnson| OR: 69| D

7/1

Three wins from 5 runs this year. 9/4, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 35 days ago. 6 lb higher mark and different conditions to overcome here.

Form: 0-01411

Man Of The Sea^p,t³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Ray Dawson⁽⁵⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 66

14/1

Latest win at Chepstow in July. 12/1, good second of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Heading back in the right direction recently and not discounted.

Kodiellen⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Mr Edward Rees⁽⁷⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 67| D

25/1

Latest win at Kempton in September. Twelfth of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 12/1) 9 days ago. Needs to bounce back and conditions pose a serious question mark.

Form: 644810

Kyllachys Tale^p⁴⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: R A Teal| OR: 64| CD

20/1

C&D winner. Seventh of 9 in handicap (10/1) at Bath (8f, good) 47 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 20-0427

(10)

Platinum Prince⁵³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: David Probert| T: G & J Moore| OR: 67| D

10/1

One win from 3 runs this year. Career best when landing 12-runner handicap (5/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 53 days ago. This is more demanding and another for whom conditions are a major concern.

Form: 046-451

(3)

Globe Theatre^t¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁷⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 63

50/1

Eleventh of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 12 days ago. Plenty to prove at present.

Form: 3-56000

(9)

Party Island⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Oisin Murphy| T: D J Coakley| OR: 64

10/3

Winner at Haydock in July. Below form third of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (7f, good to soft, 10/3) 59 days ago. Booking of Murphy a plus but more needed if he's to emerge on top.

Form: 6-61253

(2)

Mabo^b³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Rossa Ryan| T: G Harris| OR: 59| D

22/1

Latest win at Kempton in June. 8/1, last of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 35 days ago. Others make more appeal on this occasion.

Form: 219567

(7)

The King's Steed^t⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: S De Sousa| T: S Lycett| OR: 59| D

5/1

18/5, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, soft) 7 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. This test will be more suitable and he's not without each-way hope.

Form: 080415

(12)

Dancing Jo²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-6| J: Mr Oliver Timms⁽⁷⁾| T: M R Channon| OR: 52| D

16/1

Eighteen runs since last win in 2019. 9/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at Bath (8f, firm) 21 days ago. Has edged down to an attractive mark and claims judged on form from earlier this season.

Form: 78-3375

(5)

Atalanta Queen^v¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-5| J: K T O'Neill| T: R Brisland| OR: 51| D

22/1

11/2, good second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 11 days ago. Conditions won't be a problem but something to find on form overall.

Form: 247632

Forecasts

Espresso Freddo (10/3), Party Island (10/3), The King's Steed (5/1), Stopnsearch (7/1), Platinum Prince (10/1), Le Reveur (14/1), Man Of The Sea (14/1), Dancing Jo (16/1), Kyllachys Tale (20/1), Atalanta Queen (22/1), Mabo (22/1), Kodiellen (25/1), Globe Theatre (50/1)

ESPRESSO FREDDO returned to form when finding only a progressive 4-y-o too good at Hamilton 3 weeks ago and he is appealing off the same mark here and with conditions to suit. He may have most to fear from Dancing Jo, who is unproven on soft/heavy but has slipped to a potentially handy mark and will be a threat if handling the ground. Man of The Sea and The King's Steed are others to consider.
