Andaleep^t³^{(ex 5)}

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: B A Curtis| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 70| D

5/6

Successful start for this yard at Goodwood in June and added to tally in a small field at Windsor (11.5f) on Sunday. Likely to be very competitive under a 5 lb penalty if coping with the quick turnaround.

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: K Stott| T: D H Brown| OR: 72| CD

14/1

Temperamental sort but did bag a C&D win in April. Creditable third at Ripon in June but well-held fifth of 6 at Haydock (11.5f) on latest start.

Form: 1-21635

11/2

Three wins this year, including over the extended 1m here. Last couple of runs suggest the handicapper is possibly winning the argument for now, though.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: D Tudhope| T: M Walford| OR: 67

7/2

Back to winning ways at Nottingham in July. 3/1, creditable third of 8 back there last time. Cheekpieces the headgear of choice this time. Much respected under Tudhope.

Forecasts

Andaleep (5/6), Zumurud (7/2), Dark Company (5/1), Bavardages (11/2), Little Ted (7/1), Whispering Winds (12/1), Can Can Girl (14/1), Fire Eyes (20/1)

It might be worth taking a chance on DARK COMPANY as he ran a bit better last time and really ought to be capable of winning from a mark in the 50s. Zumurud arrives in good nick and often runs well for Danny Tudhope so he's feared most ahead of recent Windsor winner Andaleep.
