Mine's A Double¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| C

2/5

Promising individual. Won 10-runner maiden at this course (6f, good, 11/1) on debut 18 days ago, readily. Sure to progress and he's very much the one to beat under a penalty.

Form: 1

Haidarah^t⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Dylan Hogan⁽³⁾| T: M L W Bell

22/1

Twice-raced maiden. 10/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in minor event at Catterick (6f, good) 7 days ago. May be the type to do better in handicaps moving forward.

Form: 66

Strike Me A Pose

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: W Buick| T: A Watson

15/8

£15,000 yearling, Adaay half-brother to several winners, including 1m-1¼m winner Universal Gleam and 9.5f-1½m winner Fools And Kings, both useful. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Very much a newcomer to note.

It's Wonderful²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: P Mulrennan| T: A W Carroll

125/1

Orpen filly. Ninth of 10 in minor event at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm, 80/1) on debut 25 days ago, slowly in to stride and always behind but considerately handled. Likely type for later on.

Form: 9

Broughtons Oyster^h1

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: David Probert| T: P J McBride

40/1

Due Diligence filly. Half-sister to 7f winners Lualiwa and Broughton Sunpearl. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 5f/6f winner Texas Gold. Wears hood. Probably best watched on debut.

Form:

(2)

Tilsworth Valerie²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: E J Walsh| T: J R Jenkins

200/1

Twice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 10 in minor event at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Readily passed over here.

Form: 80

Forecasts

Mine's A Double (2/5), Strike Me A Pose (15/8), The Cooler King (8/1), Haidarah (22/1), Broughtons Oyster (40/1), It's Wonderful (125/1), Tilsworth Valerie (200/1)

MINE'S A DOUBLE looked a decidedly-useful prospect when making a winning debut over 6f here 18 days ago, n command before last ½f and winning readily. There's likely a good deal more to come from Clive Cox's 3-y-o and he can make it 2-2. Newcomer Strike Me A Pose makes appeal on paper and is feared, along with The Cooler King who ran with promise on debut at Beverley in June.
