Burning Cash³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: K Stott| T: P T Midgley| OR: 97| D

9/4

Useful gelding. 2 wins from 4 runs this year, the latest at Doncaster in July. Seventeenth of 20 in handicap at Ascot (5f, firm, 15/2) 31 days ago. Vulnerable on these terms.

Form: 55-8110

Night On Earth^p,h⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Frederick Larson⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 90| D

4/1

Useful gelding. Last of 12 in handicap (10/1) at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 5 days ago. Faces a stiff task at the weights.

Form: 708530

Whenthedealinsdone^p¹⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: David Probert| T: R A Teal| OR: 95| D

11/2

Useful gelding. 16/1, twenty-first of 28 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Clearly didn't give his running on that occasion and will be a threat if on-song this time.

Form: 105-070

Audience¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 100

5/4

Lightly-raced winner. 7/1, good third of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago. On that evidence, this drop to the minimum trip could work in his favour and he's a big player.

Form: 1-2203

Forecasts

Audience (5/4), Korker (15/8), Burning Cash (9/4), Night On Earth (4/1), Whenthedealinsdone (11/2)

The 3-y-os AUDIENCE and Korker are expected to come to the fore and marginal preference is for the Gosden-trained colt, who left the impression that he possesses more than enough natural speed to cope with this drop to the minimum trip when third in a 6f Newmarket handicap recently. Whenthedealinsdone has yet to match his 2021 form so far this season, but he will be a live danger if on-song here.
