4/5

Winner at Yarmouth (11.5f) in June. 3/1, good third of 14 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good) 8 days ago, doing too much too soon. Visor back on. One of the likelier types here. Player.

6/1

Fifth of 6 in handicap at Brighton (11.9f, good, 10/3) 39 days ago. Remains a maiden but bits and pieces of her form give her claims if bouncing back in an ordinary handicap back on AW.

14/1

Latest win at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in July. 20/1, not disgraced when fifth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (11.9f, good to soft) 15 days ago. However, others make more appeal for win purposes.

MAHANAKHON POWER has largely performed with credit since shedding the maiden tag at Yarmouth in June, possibly doing a little too much too soon under a positive ride when third at Nottingham 8 days ago. He gets the nod in a refitted visor. Parikarma and Eltham Palace are fancied to provide the chief threats.
