Los Camachos^b¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Grace McEntee⁽⁵⁾| T: J Gallagher| OR: 70| D

11/1

Latest win at Kempton in September. 9/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 18 days ago, so he's not ruled out.

Form: 411352

Impeach^t1³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: C Allen| OR: 70

14/1

14/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 30 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time, and one for the shortlist.

Radetsky¹⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Marco Ghiani| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 70| BF| DWS

7/2

Dual 7f winner who hasn't enjoyed the rub of the green on both his starts for current yard. Back from a break now after a wind op and he's weighted to go well. Well worth a market check.

Form: 69-6088

Full Approval²¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 70

80/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 18/1, twelfth of 13 in minor event at Kempton (7f). Off 7 months. Makes handicap debut with work to do.

Form: 940

Garth Rockett^p,t³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Murphy| OR: 69| D

66/1

Arrives out of sorts, last of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 30 days ago. Others are much preferred.

Form: 409760

(3)

Coase¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Shepherd| T: M Wigham| OR: 68

11/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2019, and only ninth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 11 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 250589

(4)

Sycamore¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 68

9/1

Had wind op before respectable sixth on yard bow in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago. Can give another good account.

Form: 25-6546

(1)

Custard The Dragon^p¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Beasley| T: J Mackie| OR: 68| CD

4/1

8-time C&D winner who posted another good effort after 8 months off when second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 12 days ago. Well in the mix.

Form: 522102

(14)

Chookie Dunedin¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Billy Garritty⁽³⁾| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 67| D

7/1

Left poorly placed when ninth of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Newcastle (6f) 19 days ago. Merits consideration from a falling mark.

Form: 687509

(6)

Gypsy Whisper⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 67| D

9/2

Arrives on a lengthy losing run but she wasn't disgraced on her yard bow when third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (7/1) 5 days ago. Considered.

Form: 734163

(2)

Evening Song⁶⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: George Rooke⁽³⁾| T: Rae Guest| OR: 67| D

25/1

Winless in 2021, and she was again below par when sixth of 8 in handicap at Brighton (8f) 69 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 244376

(12)

Dick Datchery^b¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Zak Wheatley⁽⁷⁾| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 66

28/1

It's now eighteen runs since last win in 2020, and only ninth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 11 days ago. Blinkers refitted with questions to answer.

Form: 079429

(7)

Global Vision^b1⁷⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 66| D

25/1

Quirky sort who unseated rider early after being hampered in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 79 days ago. Blinkers on for 1st time and he's not easy to make a case for.

Form: 33545U

(8)

Eye Of The Water¹⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Watson| T: R Harris| OR: 66| DWS

16/1

Eighteen runs since last win in 2019. 11/2, only sixth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, soft) 144 days ago. Needs to get back on track after undergoing breathing surgery.

Form: 45-5866

Forecasts

Radetsky (7/2), Custard The Dragon (4/1), Gypsy Whisper (9/2), Chookie Dunedin (7/1), Sycamore (9/1), Coase (11/1), Los Camachos (11/1), Impeach (14/1), Eye Of The Water (16/1), Evening Song (25/1), Global Vision (25/1), Dick Datchery (28/1), Garth Rockett (66/1), Full Approval (80/1)

Lots with chances, so at the likely odds it is worth siding with RADETSKY who hasn't enjoyed the rub of the green on both his starts for Jane Chapple-Hyam and now returns after a wind op on a good mark. Custard The Dragon is another weighted to go well, with Chookie Dunedin, Impeach and Los Camachos all high on the shortlist too.
