Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Limerick (8f, good to firm) 54 days ago. First run for yard after leaving John Patrick Murtagh. Not the easiest to win with but claims from this mark.

Latest win at Doncaster in June. Blew the start when fifth of 7 in handicap there (7f, good to firm, 9/2) 28 days ago. Chance if getting on away on terms but slow starts have become regular occurence.

4-time C&D winner also won at Musselburgh in May. Sixth of 7 in handicap (9/1) at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Back down in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Forecasts

Poet's Magic (11/4), Riot (10/3), Jump The Gun (4/1), Ventura Rascal (11/2), Black Friday (10/1), Nearly A Gonna (11/1), Tommy G (12/1), Cisco Disco (16/1)

Verdict

POET'S MAGIC has a fine C&D record and has remained in form since her recent Chester win, so looks the one to beat here. Riot isn't the easiest to win with but can give a good account, with Ventura Rascal also a player.
