Aramis Grey¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Callum Shepherd| T: Rae Guest| OR: 77| D

9/4

Three wins from 8 runs this year. 3/1, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 17 days ago. 3 lb rise fair enough and she should be in the mix.

Form: 212421

Verreaux Eagle¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: W Buick| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 77| CD

6/1

C&D winner in August. 9/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap back here 10 days ago. Shouldn't be far away with William Buick back aboard, providing things drop right for her.

Form: 344133

Shining Success¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: N Callan| T: D M Simcock| OR: 75| D

9/2

Latest win at Kempton in August. 10/3, 1¼ lengths fourth of 5 to Aramis Grey in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 17 days ago. Needs to pull out more now switched to tapeta.

Form: 1-53714

Ghaaliya²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: C Banham| OR: 72| D

10/1

Lightly-raced winner. Very good third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 50/1) 25 days ago. Can make her presence felt off the same mark here, providing she proves equally effective on this surface.

Form: 164-73

(2)

Perfect Match²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Marquand| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 72

22/1

Last of 5 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm, 18/1) 21 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and she needs to raise her game a notch or two.

Form: 0205-75

(10)

Join Forces⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Oisin Murphy| T: J Tate| OR: 70

9/2

Winner at Southwell in April. 13/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 41 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and looks vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 215743

Annie Rose¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Hollie Doyle| T: T D Barron| OR: 68| CD

17/2

C&D winner. Latest win at Catterick in July. 15/2, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 10 days ago. Minor place money is probably the best she can hope for.

Form: 7-20134

(9)

Liberty Bay¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: M D I Usher| OR: 67| D

14/1

7/1, last of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good) 13 days ago. Still, she's consistent overall and has claims back here (runner-up on 2 of her 4 previous visits to this course) off a reduced mark.

Form: 442249

(6)

Dacesa^v¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: C Lee| T: P D Evans| OR: 66

14/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Visored for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 16/1) 10 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 334777

(4)

Celerity⁴³

Age: 7| Weight: 8-7| J: Erika Parkinson⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 52| D

80/1

One win from 107 Flat runs, that belated breakthrough success gained at Haydock in August. However, last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 50/1) since and she's 4 lb 'wrong' at the weights here.

Form: 073318

Aramis Grey (9/4), Join Forces (9/2), Shining Success (9/2), Verreaux Eagle (6/1), Annie Rose (17/2), Ghaaliya (10/1), Come On Girl (12/1), Dacesa (14/1), Liberty Bay (14/1), Perfect Match (22/1), Celerity (80/1)

The vote in what looks a wide-open race goes to GHAALIYA, who took a step firmly back in the right direction when a close third at Kempton earlier this month. She has fewer miles on the clock than the majority of these and is comparatively fresh too, with this being just her third start of the year. Aramis Grey is pretty solid and she is next on the list ahead of Liberty Bay.
