Crantock Bay^v1²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: P Mulrennan| T: George Scott| OR: 70

8/1

Below form seventh of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Doncaster (7f, soft) 24 days ago. Visor on 1st time and this 4-y-o probably needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 222-057

Wilfy^b²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Liam Keniry| T: S Kirk| OR: 70| D

8/1

Winner at Sandown in July. Twelfth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 28/1) 20 days ago, unsuited by step up in trip. Significantly back down in trip. Others make more appeal.

Form: 215430

Queen Of Burgundy⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: K Stott| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 68| D

12/1

Respectable sixth of 14 in handicap (12/1) at Nottingham (6.1f, good to firm) 51 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and this demands a personal best.

Form: 374366

Burrows Seeside¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: G Lee| T: P A Kirby| OR: 69| C

7/4

Improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap (11/10) at this course (6f) 18 days ago. 5 lb rise tolerable and this lightly-raced 3-y-o should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick.

Form: 8-0311

Chloellie³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Marco Ghiani⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 67| D

12/1

Latest win at Sandown in August. 4/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 34 days ago, staying on well. Should be on the premises once again.

Form: 555142

Kupa River^h⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Hart| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 66| D

40/1

Eighteen runs since last win in 2019. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 10/3) 8 days ago. Hood back on. Something to find on form.

Form: 304708

(6)

Insurplus¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: D Tudhope| T: J S Goldie| OR: 65| CD

5/1

Three-time C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2019. 14/1, bit below form eighth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. Looks vulnerable.

Form: 202668

(13)

Street Poet¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: M Herrington| OR: 65| D

33/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton in July. 50/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (8f) 11 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 717487

(12)

Dawn Breaking²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Phil Dennis| T: R M Whitaker| OR: 63| D

16/1

Three wins from 10 runs this year, the latest at Pontefract in October. Below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, soft, 8/1) 24 days ago. Others are more convincing on balance.

Form: 860168

Betty Grable¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Paula Muir⁽³⁾| T: W Storey| OR: 63| C

66/1

Course winner. 66/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (10.2f) 14 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Yet to win off a mark this high.

Form: 629158

Royal Regent¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Ray Dawson⁽³⁾| T: R M Smith| OR: 61| BF

50/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2018. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Redcar (8f, heavy, 9/2) 14 days ago. However, well held all 3 previous here.

Form: 33-0953

(7)

Dramatista¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rowan Scott| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 61

50/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (50/1) 18 days ago. Must improve.

Form: 5-3240

(11)

Deolali^p¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-12| J: Shane Gray| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 58| CD

7/1

10/1, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this C&D 11 days ago, keeping on well. That was his third C&D success and this 6-y-o has to enter calculations.

Form: 322101

Forecasts

Burrows Seeside (7/4), Insurplus (5/1), Deolali (7/1), Crantock Bay (8/1), Wilfy (8/1), Society Queen (8/1), Chloellie (12/1), Queen Of Burgundy (12/1), Dawn Breaking (16/1), Street Poet (33/1), Kupa River (40/1), Dramatista (50/1), Royal Regent (50/1), Betty Grable (66/1)

The hat-trick beckons for BURROWS SEESIDE, who made it 2-2 in handicaps when getting on top close home over 6f here last time. He shapes as though well worth another crack at this trip and should have more to offer. Royal Regent has slipped to an attractive mark, but he has failed to fire on his 3 previous visits here. As such, three-time C&D winner Deolali and Chloellie rate the main dangers.
