2/1

Winner at Thirsk (6f, soft) in August. Not in same form when sixth of 12 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) on his latest start 7 days ago but no surprise to see a better showing here.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: B A Curtis| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 60| D

13/8

Got off the mark in first-time blinkers at Ripon (6f) in July and he arrives here on the back of a trio of creditable efforts, runner-up behind another in good form at Redcar latest. One to consider.

11/1

9/2 and blinkered for 1st time, fifth of 7 in seller at Leicester (7f, good) in July, weakening over 1f out. Has been gelded ahead of debut for new yard and the betting may prove useful here.

12/1

Last of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 10/3) 28 days ago, never dangerous without usual cheekpieces on. Blinkers now the headgear of choice which may perk him up.

10/1

Eighth of 15 in handicap at this course (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago, making his effort early in the straight but never dangerous. Blinkers need to have positive effect now back at 6f.

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: G Lee| T: M Herrington| OR: 45

Maiden who ran well on a couple of occassions on turf earlier this term but proved a disappointment on turf/AW in recent weeks. Is now operating from basement mark at least. Cheekpieces refitted.

Forecasts

Ginato (13/8), Mr Trevor (2/1), Jakacan (10/1), Red Stripes (10/1), Dan De Light (11/1), Emjaytwentythree (11/1), Stronsay (12/1), Twelve Diamonds (14/1), Qaaraat (25/1), The Simple Truth (66/1)

GINATO has proved largely consistent since fitted with blinkers, finding only one too good at Redcar on his most recent start 7 days ago, and he's fancied to make his presence felt again under Ben Curtis. Mr Trevor and Stronsay head up the dangers, whilst Emjaytwentythree is worth monitoring also from a career-low mark.
