Rose Hip³³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: P J Dobbs| T: A W Carroll| OR: 83| D

9/1

Career-best effort when landing handicap at Windsor in May. Hindered by slow starts/pulling hard since but this represents a drop in class.

Phoenix Star^p⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 81| CD

6/1

Enjoying another excellent season, posting a career best when dead-heating over C&D in July. Race wasn't run to suit at Haydock next time and quickly back on his game at Newmarket.

Form: 124144

Saaheq^b¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 78| CD

10/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 14 runs this year. Latest win here in June. Raced on a flank at Doncaster a fortnight ago so probably remains in form. Eased 2 lb.

Form: 819047

Vandad¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: William Carson| T: M J Attwater| OR: 78| D

5/1

Third to Saaheq over C&D in June and has won both starts since, supplementing Brighton success at Lingfield 11 days ago. 6 lb rise asks for more.

Form: 522311

Devil's Angel⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-3| J: Oisin Murphy| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 77

7/2

In fine form at Newcastle earlier in the year and having dropped to his last winning mark, he resumed winning ways at Newmarket. Shaped quite well last week so remains in top form.

Form: 127915

Ehrmann^t,v1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J Mitchell| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 79| D

3/1

Gained reward for consistency when doubling career tally at Pontefract last month. Didn't seem to handle the track at Goodwood latest so that run can be overlooked. Visor replaces cheekpieces.

Form: 226315

Spring Bloom³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: R Kingscote| T: R Eddery| OR: 75| D

6/1

Places for the third time from 4 starts for this yard under an attacking ride over C&D a month ago. Nudged up 2 lb so others more persuasive.

DEVIL'S ANGEL has confirmed he's equally effective on turf at Newmarket of late, shaping better than the result a week ago, and he's an appealing candidate down in trip with Oisin Murphy in the saddle. Saaheq won over C&D in June and lurks on a dangerous mark, with Phoenix Star also considered.
