(1)

Mid Winster²²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: P T Midgley| OR: 86| D

4/1

Backed up her third in an Ayr listed event to resume winning ways in 8-runner handicap at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 22 days ago, finding extra. 5 lb higher now but clearly in very good form.

Form: 424531

(7)

Ventura Express¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: D A Jacob| T: P T Midgley| OR: 83| D

7/1

Impressive at Pontefract last month and acquitted himself well under a penalty when second at Haydock 3 days later. Far from disgraced subsequently but the handicapper may now be in charge.

Form: 251256

(6)

Ginger Jam⁴¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Bryony Frost| T: N Tinkler| OR: 83| D

8/1

Built on his encouraging Thirsk effort to regain the winning thread at Bath (5f) in June. Found it tougher back up in grade at Doncaster last time but shaped as if still in good form.

Form: 10-8615

(8)

Soul Seeker⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: T Scudamore| T: D O'Meara| OR: 83| D

11/2

Is holding his form really well and notched his third win of the campaign in 7-runner handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to firm) last week. Should remain competitive.

Form: 436221

(2)

Get Boosting^t¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-5| J: C O'Farrell| T: I Jardine| OR: 81| D

9/1

Confirmed reappearance promise when winning 6-runner handicap at Ripon (5f) in May. Ran below form at Thirsk but got back on track when third at Ayr 19 days ago.

Form: 7-51593

(12)

James Watt^p¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: B S Hughes| T: P T Midgley| OR: 81| CD

9/1

Ended losing run stretching back to 2018 in good style at Ripon (5f) in June. Not in same form at Hamilton but looked as good as ever when resuming winning ways over C&D 15 days ago. Respected.

Form: 298131

(4)

Thegreatestshowman^p¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: J M Quinlan| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 79| D

22/1

Not disgraced on 2 of his 3 starts back from a 4-month break but others preferred from a win point of view.

Form: 332493

(5)

Nibras Again³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Jonathan England| T: P T Midgley| OR: 75| CD

9/1

Won this corresponding race in 2019 and looks to be coming to the boil again, going even closer than at Nottingham from a mark 2 lb lower at Newmarket last month. Shortlisted.

Form: 338722

(11)

Son And Sannie⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: Sean Quinlan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 72| D

12/1

Dual 5f winner in 2020. Yet to fire this year, but was plainly unsuited by a change of tactics at Haydock last week, so not one to write off from a falling mark.

Form: 040496

(3)

Eeh Bah Gum^p⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Jamie Hamilton| T: T D Easterby| OR: 66| CD

9/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2018. Not digraced dropped into a 0-70 at Doncaster last week but is proving expensive to follow and others more persuasive now back up in grade.

Form: 754364

Forecasts

Mid Winster (4/1), Soul Seeker (11/2), Ventura Express (7/1), Ginger Jam (8/1), Dark Shot (8/1), Get Boosting (9/1), Eeh Bah Gum (9/1), James Watt (9/1), Nibras Again (9/1), Son And Sannie (12/1), Thegreatestshowman (22/1), Secretinthepark (25/1)

An open race with the vote going to NIBRAS AGAIN, who won the corresponding race in 2019 and signalled he's ready to strike again when runner-up at Newmarket last month. Mid Winster's Doncaster win is backed up by the clock, so he's respected from 5 lb higher, while James Watt and Ginger Jam are others to bear in mind.
