La Roca Del Fuego^h²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Tyler Heard⁽⁵⁾| T: G Deacon| OR: 70| D

5/2

Has an excellent Chelmsford record this year, gaining a fourth win there (all under Tyler Heard) when making all over 5f 24 days ago. Up another 7 lb but he's very much unexposed at 5f.

Form: 131411

Smokey¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: R Kingscote| T: C Wallis| OR: 69| D

6/1

Six wins from 23 Flat runs. Three wins from 10 runs this year. 6/1, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5f) 15 days ago. Back on a workable mark.

Form: 474555

Gustav Graves¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Philip Prince| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 68

12/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 7/2, first run since leaving Edward Bethell when fourth of 10 in novice at Wolverhampton (5f) 15 days ago. Opening mark not obviously generous but he is unexposed.

Form: 734

(2)

Street Parade^p¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Joey Haynes| T: M J Attwater| OR: 68| D

17/2

Latest win at Sandown in July. Only seventh of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Chelmsford (6f) 19 days ago but dangerous to dismiss having dropped back to a winning mark.

Form: 143447

(5)

Secretfact²³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Ryan Tate| T: M S Saunders| OR: 67| D

20/1

Ungenuine type. 14/1, last of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (5f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 3-55270

(7)

Spirit Power²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: E J Alston| OR: 64| CD

22/1

C&D winner. Back on a favourable mark but his recent efforts hardly inspire confidence

Form: 076689

Persaria^t¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 62| D

4/1

11/4, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 19 days ago, well on top finish. Only raised 3 lb and likely to give another good account.

Form: 375471

(9)

Lothian¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rob Hornby| T: M J Attwater| OR: 60

16/1

Fair maiden. Below par in 2 comeback runs after a break and needs to recapture his best form.

Form: 45-6467

(3)

Trusty Rusty²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: T E Whelan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 59| D

4/1

Pair of 5f Wolverhampton wins in the summer. 3/1, creditable second of 9 in handicap there (5f again) 26 days ago, going off too hard. Respected.

Form: 671122

Forecasts

La Roca Del Fuego (5/2), Trusty Rusty (4/1), Persaria (4/1), Smokey (6/1), Street Parade (17/2), Berrtie (10/1), Gustav Graves (12/1), Lothian (16/1), Secretfact (20/1), Spirit Power (22/1)

LA ROCA DEL FUEGO and Tyler Heard haven't looked back since teaming up at the start of the summer and could take a bit of stopping again if as effective at this right-handed venue as he is at left-handed Chelmsford. Last-time-out Lingfield scorer Persaria and Trusty Rusty, who hasn't finished out of the first two in four starts for Tony Carroll, head the dangers.
