Majeski Man²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: K Stott| T: P T Midgley| OR: 70

9/2

Successful twice at 6f upon joining John O'Shea earlier this year, latterly at Salisbury (6f) in April. Operating below best more recently but has since joined yard that excels with such types so he's one to note here back down in grade.

Form: 313666

Lost My Sock²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 69| D

9/2

Capitalised on easing mark at Ripon (5f) in May and similar form when runner-up at Thirsk (5f) on his penultimate start in June. Shade disappointing when eighth of 10 in C&D handicap 24 days ago but bounce back distinctly possible from handy draw in stall 1.

Melody King^h⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: J P Sullivan| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 69| D

11/1

Successful twice over 5f last term and, having eased in weights, dropped the hint his turn may be imminent again when running on for fourth at Nottingham (5f) last month. One to consider now operating 3 lb below last winning mark.

Form: 135-694

Roydmoor¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 69| D

5/1

:In good form on AW over the winter, successful at Newcastle (5f) in November. Yet to hit top gear in 2 starts on turf this summer but this does at least rate a little less demanding than his latest Pontefract assignment 11 days ago.

Form: 13-3366

Phoenix Star^v¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 66| D

16/1

Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. 9/1 and visored for 1st time, creditable second of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good to firm) 19 days ago, running on. Task now is to back that up.

Form: 240702

Proclivity³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 69

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden who ran best race to date when keeping on for third at Haydock (5f) in June, ridden over 1f out and keeping on. Subsequent effort at Redcar has to go down as disappointing but she's not discounted if bouncing back.

Form: 222-536

High Security¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Alex Jary⁽⁷⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 63| D

13/2

Latest win at Ripon (5f) in May. Fourth of 7 in handicap (7/2) at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 10 days ago, doing too much too soon. Now back on last winning mark.

Form: 231644

Where's Diana²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jonny Peate⁽⁵⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 67| D

25/1

Latest win at Carlisle (5f, soft) in July and matched that level when finishing creditable second of 7 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good, 3/1) 20 days ago, beaten only by another in-form filly. May be drawn wider than ideal here, though.

Form: 478012

(10)

Latin Five¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 63| D

28/1

Latest win at Ripon in June. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good to firm, 16/1) 19 days ago, never involved. Others more persuasive.

Form: 060138

(2)

Murbih¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 65| BF

17/2

Maiden who filled runners-up spot for third time since the spring over C&D 25 days ago, just no match for the improving Sherdil. Stumbled start, not in same form when third at Ripon (6f) since but pick of form has come at 5f and handy draw to work from here in stall 2.

Form: 220623

(11)

Kendred Fire²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 65

20/1

Creditable third of 6 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to firm, 5/1) 22 days ago, disputing a sound pace and keeping on. This sort of mark looks within reach but drawn a little wider than ideal in 11.

Form: 40-0623

(6)

Buniann^h1¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: P Hanagan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 60| D

9/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2021. 3/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 11 days ago. Hood on 1st time but worth noting all 5 career victories have come at Newcastle.

Form: 796624

Lost My Sock (9/2), Majeski Man (9/2), Roydmoor (5/1), High Security (13/2), Murbih (17/2), Buniann (9/1), Melody King (11/1), Proclivity (14/1), Just Another (14/1), Phoenix Star (16/1), Kendred Fire (20/1), Where's Diana (25/1), Latin Five (28/1)

Plenty in with a shout and it may pay to take a chance on MAJESKI MAN. He's been operating below his best of late but the pick of his early-season form is working out well and, having joined a yard that excels with such types, it would come as no surprise to see him go well. Melody King dropped a hint his turn isn't far away at Nottingham recently and he's feared, along with Lost My Sock and High Security.
