Cloud Formation³⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Patrick Cowley⁽³⁾| T: M Keighley| OR: 94

7/2

Maiden hurdler who unseated early on first try chasing but showed a bit when 10 lengths third of 10 in a novices' handicap at Worcester (23f) next start. Possible he will have a little more to offer.

Form: 9/P-33U3

Clondaw Rigger^t¹³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-6| J: Benjamin Poste| T: Katy Price| OR: 88

15/2

Looked a big player prior to taking a heavy fall at Chepstow (26.2f) in April. Good third at Ffos Las next time but not in same form since, including after a break at first-named venue 2 weeks ago.

Form: 63F-368

Kingsmill Gin²⁰¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-3| J: James Best| T: Miss J Du Plessis| OR: 85

8/1

Minor promise over hurdles but showed nothing when pulled up over fences here (21f) back in April. 5 lb lower ahead of return but improvement required if she's to feature.

Form: 3/P408P-

Leave My Alone^t²⁴⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Brendan Powell| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 83

3/1

Back on track around the turn of the year, readily landing 3m Fakenham handicap prior to a good second at Taunton (21.7f) in February, clear of remainder. Claims on return from 3 lb higher.

Form: 06P/212-

Treacys Jim¹⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Caoilin Quinn⁽⁷⁾| T: J D Frost| OR: 76

13/2

Showed first form when runner-up over 21f here in April. Not scaled same heights either outing since, pulled up under hold-up tactics at Warwick (20f) in May. Returns from a break now.

Form: 0P72-3P

Isla Di Milano^p,t¹⁴⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: C Brace| T: J L Flint| OR: 75

11/1

Point winner who hasn't acquitted himself badly switched to fences, likely to have matched previous best but for unseating at Ffos Las in June. Each-way possibilities now.

Form: 42/P3-5U

Dorado Dollar²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Lorcan Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: B I Case| OR: 67

10/3

Modest maiden who suggested he retains some ability back from 7 months off when fourth at Market Rasen (22.8f) in September. However, doesn't look certain to build on that.

Form: 8P5U4-4

Forecasts

Leave My Alone (3/1), Dorado Dollar (10/3), Cloud Formation (7/2), Arc Of Bubbles (4/1), Between The Waters (9/2), Treacys Jim (13/2), Clondaw Rigger (15/2), Kingsmill Gin (8/1), First Assembly (8/1), Isla Di Milano (11/1), Hedgeinator (12/1), Mr Stubbs (12/1)

LEAVE ME ALONE was in good form when last seen, successful at Fakenham in January prior to finding only one too good at Taunton the following month. She could be the answer to this tricky puzzle on return, with Between The Waters, Arc of Bubbles and Cloud Formation heading up the dangers.
