Jojo Rabbit¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 86| CD

16/1

C&D winner in June. 20/1, last of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 14 days ago though so he needs to get back on track.

Form: 269-108

Silky Wilkie⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: S H James| T: K R Burke| OR: 86| D

4/6

Bagged his third win this year with a career best in 13-runner apprentice handicap at Haydock (5f, good to firm) 5 days ago. Escapes a penalty here so he rates a big player.

Form: 122121

Abate¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Barry McHugh| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 82| CD

7/1

Latest win at Newmarket in June. Respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm, 16/1) 13 days ago. C&D winner too so he's shortlisted.

Form: 423157

Dusky Prince^b¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: L Morris| T: A Watson| OR: 84| D

13/2

3 wins from 11 runs this year, latest at Doncaster in July. Posted a creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) 15 days ago so ought to be competitive again.

Form: 341114

Leodis Dream²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 78| D

6/1

Twenty four runs since last win in 2019 but he recorded a good second of 20 in handicap at York (5f, good to firm, 16/1) 20 days ago. In the mix.

Form: 857232

Good Luck Fox¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 8-9| J: P Hanagan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 68| D

12/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2021 and only ninth of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 13 days ago, slowly away. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Forecasts

Silky Wilkie (4/6), Leodis Dream (6/1), Dusky Prince (13/2), Abate (7/1), Good Luck Fox (12/1), Ballet Steps (14/1), Jojo Rabbit (16/1)

SILKY WILKIE made it win number three for 2022 at Haydock only five days ago and is weighted to bag another success here as he escapes a penalty. Both Dusky Prince (second choice) and Leodis Dream arrive in good nick however and should ensure Karl Burke's 3-y-o doesn't have things all his own way.
