Ready Freddie Go^p⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Gianluca Sanna⁽³⁾| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 89| D

13/2

Impressive strike rate over 5f, and even more so at Thirsk where he made it 3-3 there last week. This is tougher back against the older sprinters but he's clearly in good order.

Form: 140511

Primo's Comet^p¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Zak Wheatley| T: J S Goldie| OR: 79| D

14/1

Added to his excellent record at Musselburgh with another victory in well-run 5f handicap there 18 days ago. Successful off this revised mark in the past and could be involved.

Form: 513231

Buy Me Back⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Mr Cameron Hillhouse⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 79| D

10/1

Has won 4 times over this trip this year and wasn't disgraced from a difficult draw at Catterick on Tuesday.

Form: 112305

Modular Magic²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: O McSweeney| T: T D Barron| OR: 79| D

6/1

Has won 5f handicaps at Ayr and Musselburgh (valuable 17-runner contest in Sky Bet Series) this season. Unable to lead in stronger Sandown event 21 days ago but still fairly unexposed. Interesting.

Form: 42-1410

(9)

Fantasy Master^p1³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Erika Parkinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 77| D

9/1

Dual winner over 5f at Nottingham last autumn. Bit disappointing since looking unlucky in Royal Ascot handicap but back on a dangerous mark in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 043902

Four Adaay²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Sam Feilden⁽⁵⁾| T: B R Millman| OR: 75| D

11/1

Has done well this year, winning 3 times over 5f. Back to form having not been seen to best effect in valuable class 2 York handicap last month and she could figure.

Form: 311246

(13)

Global Humor^p⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 8-9| J: Alan Persse| T: J S Goldie| OR: 70

10/1

Three-time winner this year, latest victory at Ayr in July, and he's continuing to hold his form well, fourth from poor position in C&D contest last week. Merits consideration.

Form: 226134

(16)

Harrogate²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-7| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: P T Midgley| OR: 68| D

14/1

Has won 3 handicaps over this trip this season, making all again in good style at Ripon 3 weeks ago. Better than this in the past and unwise to dismiss.

Form: 836131

Glorious Rio^b⁶^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 8-4| J: Jonny Peate| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 60| D

10/3

Has really come of age this summer, beaten just once in his last 5 starts in 5f handicaps and getting the hat-trick up under this rider at Newcastle last week. Up in grade but bold bid looks assured.

Form: 313111

(8)

Sam's Call^v¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-3| J: William Pyle⁽⁵⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 64| D

10/1

Off the mark dropped in grade/fitted with visor in 5f Beverley handicap a fortnight ago. More needed back up 4 lb/in class.

Form: 537451

(15)

Boudica Bay^b³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-3| J: Marie Perrault⁽⁵⁾| T: E J Alston| OR: 64| CD

25/1

Won 5f handicaps at Nottingham and over C&D earlier this summer. Given a break since finishing behind Glorious Rio at Nottingham 4 weeks ago but returns in a very competitive race.

Form: 331124

(14)

Economic Crisis⁵

Age: 12| Weight: 8-0| J: Molly Presland⁽⁵⁾| T: A Berry| OR: 61| D

28/1

Veteran who came good this time last year with 2 wins but hit and miss in 2021 and suspect she'll do well to land a race as hot as this.

Form: 270638

(5)

Red Walls¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-0| J: Sophie Clements⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 59| D

80/1

Off the mark in 5f Wolverhampton handicap in May and some fair runs since. This looks far too hot from out of the weights, however.

Form: 465224

(12)

Street Life^p²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-0| J: Morgan Cole⁽³⁾| T: P Morris| OR: 57| D

80/1

Doing well at a low level, resuming winning ways in 6f Lingfield apprentice handicap 22 days ago. This looks too tough back on turf now.

Form: 07-3651

Forecasts

Glorious Rio (10/3), Modular Magic (6/1), Ready Freddie Go (13/2), Fantasy Master (9/1), Global Humor (10/1), Buy Me Back (10/1), Sam's Call (10/1), Four Adaay (11/1), Harrogate (14/1), Primo's Comet (14/1), The Bell Conductor (14/1), Muscika (20/1), Holbache (20/1), Boudica Bay (25/1), Economic Crisis (28/1), Street Life (80/1), Red Walls (80/1)

The thriving GLORIOUS RIO recorded his most comfortable success yet of his red-hot spell at Newcastle last week and can deservedly land this valuable prize under a penalty. Modular Magic has already won a race in this Sky Bet series and could have a bigger performance in him. Four Adaay is another to consider.
