7/4

C&D winner in July who wasn't disgraced off 2 lb higher when fourth of 10 in handicap here 16 days ago. Still has few miles on the clock, so has to be taken seriously eased 1 lb now.

Mehmo^b³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: M Appleby| OR: 64

11/1

Unreliable sort wh gained her sole win from 21 runs at Doncaster in July. 9/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Leicester (6f, good) 37 days ago, but others remain more persuasive.

Split Elevens^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: David Egan| T: J Butler| OR: 55| D

16/1

Temperamental sort who remains winless in 2021. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good) 22 days ago but it's easy to look elsewhere.

Molly Shaw (7/4), Papa Stour (2/1), Rabat (9/2), Mehmo (11/1), Napping (12/1), Split Elevens (16/1)

MOLLY SHAW arrives in excellent order and can boast a C&D success too so Chris Wall's filly looks the way to go here. Top-weight Papa Stour is on a long losing run but can't be discounted on the back of his good Newcastle second, with another C&D scorer Napping likely to be on the premises too in an open sprint.
