Chance^h²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: James Doyle| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 93| BF| D

3/1

Low-mileage 4-y-o who has returned with a couple of good runner-up efforts this autumn, particularly when narrowly denied in big field at York latterly. Leading claims.

Form: 1150-22

(8)

Arigato^p³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Ray Dawson⁽⁵⁾| T: W Jarvis| OR: 90| C| D

9/1

Three-time 7f course winner, the latest in June. However, he does need to bounce back from below-par runs on his last 3 starts.

Form: 114006

Badenscoth¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: George Downing| T: D K Ivory| OR: 87| D

8/1

Latest win at Goodwood (soft) in August. Creditable third of 7 at Nottingham (soft again) latest. Another who is likely to be competitive.

Form: 563133

(1)

Mascat¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Tyler Heard⁽⁷⁾| T: R M Beckett| OR: 90| CD

5/2

C&D maiden winner last September. Plenty of good runs in defeat since, including latest Haydock second on soft. Raised 4 lb but that's offset by Tyler Heard's claim.

Form: 747332

Ballard Down^v¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Alexandra Dunn| OR: 85| D

80/1

Moody sort who has yet to threaten in 3 starts for this yard. Can only be watched again.

Form: 116-458

(9)

Lost In Time²⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Marquand| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 86

8/1

Salisbury novice winner last year. Found life tough in Dubai at the beginning of the year but was second in heavy-ground nursery off this mark last autumn so no surprise to see him play a part here.

Form: 12-7000

Modmin³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 80| BF| D

3/1

Had little difficulty landing short odds in Goodwood novice in August and made a sound start to life in handicaps when fourth at Nottingham (1m) 33 days ago. Less exposed than a lot of these.

Form: 4-214

Forecasts

Mascat (5/2), Chance (3/1), Modmin (3/1), Badenscoth (8/1), Lost In Time (8/1), Gin Palace (8/1), Arigato (9/1), Dogged (12/1), Ballard Down (80/1)

CHANCE ran a cracker in a big field at York last time and this looks a decent opportunity for him to get back to winning ways. The lightly-raced Modmin is a possible threat, while Mascat went up 4 lb for pulling clear of the third but the promising Tyler Heard takes 7 lb off and he should also figure with conditions to suit.
