Joyful Mission¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Dylan Hogan⁽³⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 84| D

66/1

40/1, first run since leaving Sir Michael Stoute when bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (8.2f, soft) 17 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and he looks vulnerable.

Form: 314-456

Lights On³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Stott| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 85| BF| D

7/4

Promising sort. Winner at Newcastle in September. 7/4, second of 5 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good) 36 days ago, clear of rest. Unexposed and open to improvement, she's high on the shortlist.

Form: 212

River Dawn^t²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: P & O Cole| OR: 83| CD

12/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, heavy, 14/1) 22 days ago. 3-7 on polytrack and not taken lightly back on this surface.

Form: 134309

Manton Grange^p²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: S W Kelly| T: George Baker| OR: 82| C

12/1

14/1, improved on recent efforts to win 14-runner handicap at this course (7f) 26 days ago, cosily. 4 lb rise fair enough and this 7-y-o should have a leading role to play.

Form: 481831

Alqifaar³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jim Crowley| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 83| CD

4/1

C&D winner. 13/2, sixth of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (9f, good) 38 days ago. Improvement needed if he's to have a say in the finish, but it's still early days and return to this surface may help.

Form: 5-216

(5)

Fantail^h⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: W Buick| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 82| D

15/2

Lightly-raced winner. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 59 days ago. 2 lb lower now and she's another who may benefit from the return to polytrack.

Form: 1-4385

Hexagon³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽³⁾| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 81

20/1

12/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 34 days ago. Feasibly treated judged on 2-y-o exploits, but the jury is out as to whether he has trained on.

Form: 3123-98

Madame Tantzy^p⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 79| CD

13/2

C&D winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 6-runner handicap (6/1) at Newmarket (8f, good) 44 days ago. However, this 8 lb higher mark may prove beyond her reach.

Form: 6-34281

(6)

Maori Knight^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: J P Spencer| T: R Hughes| OR: 79| D

13/2

11/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, heavy) 22 days ago. Down to a career-low mark and winner of sole previous start on polytrack, so he's dangerous to discount.

Form: 205677

Forecasts

Lights On (7/4), Alqifaar (4/1), Madame Tantzy (13/2), Maori Knight (13/2), Fantail (15/2), River Dawn (12/1), Manton Grange (12/1), Hexagon (20/1), Joyful Mission (66/1)

Cases can be made for the majority of these, but there's little doubt that LIGHTS ON is the one with the greatest potential. She finished clear of the rest when just touched off on last month's handicap debut at Musselburgh and remains on an attractive mark, despite going up 5 lb. Manton Grange resumed winning ways here last time and is feared most, while River Dawn also enters calculations.
