9/2

Added another runner-up effort to his tally in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 11/8) 31 days ago, running on. Same mark here and this is slight drop in class but he isn't one for maximum faith.

Form: 48-2422

22/1

28/1, fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, good) 19 days ago. Presumably had an issue or two given fleeting appearances but he's fancied to step up on that.

Bit below form ninth of 15 in handicap (4/1) at Epsom (8.5f, good) 19 days ago, hanging left. Bounce back called for.

Top Secret^h¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Nicola Currie| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 87| BF

16/1

Excellent return to action when runner-up at Newbury last month. Seemingly failed to handle the track when tenth of 15 in handicap at Epsom (7f, good, 9/2) 19 days ago.

Form: 2210-20

Larado^b¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Frederick Larson⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 81

22/1

Stepped up markedly on previous 2 efforts this season when fifth of 15 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, good) 19 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Interesting having been eased 1 lb.

Form: 143-905

Morghom⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 90| BF| D

5/2

Winning debut at Newbury in April. 5/6, third of 14 in novice event at Newbury (7f, good) 40 days ago. Makes handicap debut from a tough-enough mark on the face of it but he's clearly unexposed.

Form: 13

Windseeker¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: James Doyle| T: R Hannon| OR: 89| C

9/2

Back-to-back novice winner 7 months apart. 8/1, very good second of 8 in handicap at Sandown (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago, having run of race. Likely to remain competitive.

Form: 21-132

Sanitiser¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Mohammed Tabti⁽⁷⁾| T: P & O Cole| OR: 87| D

20/1

22/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Sandown (9f, good to firm) 11 days ago, typically keen. Entitled to build on that reappearance.

Form: 11415-7

Rousay³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Hayley Turner| T: R Hannon| OR: 83

12/1

AW novice winner in October. Good third of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good to soft, 20/1) 33 days ago and there might be more to come.

Form: 618-23

Forecasts

Morghom (5/2), Carolus Magnus (7/2), Dubai Mirage (9/2), Windseeker (9/2), Rousay (12/1), Farasi Lane (12/1), Top Secret (16/1), Sanitiser (20/1), Larado (22/1), Variyann (22/1), You're Hired (33/1)

Competitive stuff with LARADO just about the most persuasive option having fared best of the pacesetters in a big-field handicap at Epsom 19 days ago. 3-y-os Rousay and Windseeker are just a couple of potential threats.
