5/6

Course winner. 9/4, won 9-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 5 days ago, bit in hand. Merits respect with a repeat under a penalty.

Street Parade^p⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: William Carson| T: M J Attwater| OR: 71| D

7/1

Latest win at Sandown (5f) in July. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good, 10/3) 8 days ago. No reason why he won't give another good account but he's hardly prolific.

Form: 453814

Lady Quickstep⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: N Callan| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 65| D

9/2

Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (18/1) at Yarmouth (5.2f, good to firm) 8 days ago, keeping on well. Certainly not discounted under a penalty.

4/1

4 wins from 11 runs this year. Bounced back to form to win 9-runner handicap (4/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 37 days ago, pushed out. Expected to be bang there.

Jumira Bridge⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: T Eaves| T: D Shaw| OR: 68| CD

22/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year. However, out of sorts on turf of late, last of 8 in handicap (18/1) at Leicester (5f, good) 4 days ago. Needs return to AW to have a positive effect now.

Forecasts

Lilkian (5/6), True Hero (4/1), Lady Quickstep (9/2), Street Parade (7/1), Lorna Cole (22/1), Jumira Bridge (22/1)

Having not been seen to best effect on turf previously, TRUE HERO very much got back on track when scoring at Wolverhampton 5 weeks ago. A 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold showing and he earns the vote. Fellow last-time-out winners Lilkian and Lady Quickstep can give the selection most to think about.
