Glendevon^t1³³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Darragh Keenan⁽³⁾| T: T Gallagher| OR: 84| BF| C

40/1

Unreliable sort who hasn't been seen out since creditable third of 5 in 1m handicap at Southwell 11 months ago on final run for Richard Hughes. Tongue strap replaces cheekpieces. Fitness a concern.

Form: 09638-3

Mukha Magic¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: L Morris| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 83| D

12/1

Dual 12f Southwell winner in spring but he arrives below par, only seventh of 8 in handicap (5/1) at Wolverhampton (14f) 18 days ago. Down in trip and needs to bounce back.

Fly Falcon¹⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J P Spencer| T: D Menuisier| OR: 83

7/2

Wolverhampton novice winner before excellent fourth of 10 in 10f Doncaster novice in June on final run for Richard Hannon. Makes handicap debut for new yard and not taken lightly despite his absence.

Form: 81-4

Horn Of Plenty¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 80

11/2

4/1, improved form on back of wind op when readily opening her account in 12f Wolverhampton novice 17 days ago. Big player back in handicap company.

Form: 337281

Gabrial The One¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey| OR: 76

12/1

Arrives in decent form, needing stronger gallop when fourth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 15 days ago. Makes polytrack debut and worth considering off reduced mark.

Form: 449444

Central City^p⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 69| CD

9/2

Improved on recent efforts to win 12f handicap (4/1) here 7 days ago, well on top at finish. Cheekpieces back on now so he's well in the mix under 5 lb penalty despite dropping back in trip.

Form: 693831

Siglo Six²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: P J McDonald| T: S Lycett| OR: 72

100/1

Winless this season, and he offered little on his first run since leaving Hugo Palmer when last of 12 in 1m handicap (50/1) here 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip but easily opposed.

Form: 679880

Note Bleu^b¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: M Dwyer| T: G & J Moore| OR: 73| C

11/2

Course winner who posted creditable seventh of 13 in first-time blinkers in 1m handicap here 14 days ago. Headgear retained and this longer trip should suit so he's not dismissed.

Form: 216007

Forecasts

Culture (11/4), Fly Falcon (7/2), Central City (9/2), Note Bleu (11/2), Horn Of Plenty (11/2), Mukha Magic (12/1), Gabrial The One (12/1), Glendevon (40/1), Siglo Six (100/1)

A case can be made for a few here but the most persuasive one is for HORN OF PLENTY who benefited no end from a wind op when scoring in good style at Wolverhampton and looks to have got in lightly back in handicap company now. Gabrial The One has slipped to a handy mark so is feared most if taking to polytrack and Central City is sure to have a say too on the back of his recent win here.
