Sands Chorus²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-2| J: Gemma Tutty⁽³⁾| T: K Tutty| OR: 72| D

8/1

Three wins from 5 runs this year. 15/8, improved on recent efforts to win 5-runner seller at Redcar (10f, good to firm) 24 days ago. However, revised mark looks tough back in handicap company.

Form: 0-13121

Sagauteur⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 70

2/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2019. 10/3, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good) 9 days ago, running on. Unlucky not to finish closer that day and he's a big player here.

Form: 65-4954

Casilli²³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Joanna Mason⁽³⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 70| BF| C| D

10/3

Course winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year, the latest at Ripon in May. Evens, creditable third of 7 in C&D handicap (good to firm) 23 days ago. Should be in the mix granted a strong pace to aim at.

Form: 5-11423

Sameem^p²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 70| BF| C| D

10/1

Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2019. 11/8, last of 4 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 054994

Whatwouldyouknow¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-12| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 68| CD

18/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Redcar in July. Fifth of 6 in handicap (16/5) at Redcar (10f, good) 14 days ago. Yet to score off a mark this high and likely to find one or two good.

Form: 581015

Zeimaam^p²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: P J McDonald| T: E Bethell| OR: 68

6/1

Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, firm, 4/1) 25 days ago. 0-14 but his belated first taste of success is surely near and he needs taking seriously.

Form: 335722

Broken Rifle¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Cam Hardie| T: W Bethell| OR: 62

66/1

One win from 22 Flat runs. 25/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 18 days ago. Minor place money is probably the best he can hope for.

Form: 537465

Kingson²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 59| CD

12/1

14/1, won 15-runner C&D handicap (good to firm) 23 days ago, driven out. More on his plate up 3 lb in this stronger race.

Form: 51430-1

Love Of Zoffany³²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 63| D

14/1

Latest win at Ripon in June. 15/2, good second of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Probably weighed to his best, but should give it a good shot all the same.

Form: 895132

(4)

Iron Sheriff¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Jason Hart| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 58

28/1

Last of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Thirsk (8f, good) 10 days ago. Up in trip and this 13-race maiden is essentially opposable.

Form: 962279

Dual French winner SAGAUTEUR has yet to strike on these shores, but left the distinct impression that his turn is very near when an unlucky-in-running fourth off this reduced mark at Windsor recently. He gets the nod ahead of Zeimaam, who has gone agonisingly close to shedding his maiden tag the last twice and it's surely a matter of time before he gets his head in front. Casilli also has claims.
