Persist²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 85

1/1

Winner at Ripon in May and encouraging efforts in second since, keeping on well at Nottingham 20 days ago. Open to improvement at this trip, so could take the beating.

Form: 32-1722

(4)

Terra Mitica²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 84| BF| D

6/1

Doubled her tally at Salisbury in July and probably found race coming too soon when last at Nottingham 20 days ago. Worth a chance to bounce back.

Form: 23-1214

(2)

Greek Flame²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Benoit D L Sayette⁽³⁾| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 76

7/1

Fairly useful form to date and, while not on her game last time, she remains with potential back down in trip, so not one to write off.

Form: 41-3226

(5)

Elena's Gift¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 80| BF| D

7/2

Really got her act together in recent starts, following up her Beverley victory with convincing success in 8-runner handicap at Windsor last month. Solid third at same course last time and might get the run of things.

Form: 436113

Angels Landing⁴⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: P J McDonald| T: Ian Williams| OR: 70

9/1

Looks at the top of her game based on her last couple of outings, again not ideally placed when fourth at Chester 47 days ago. Could get involved if the pace is solid.

Form: 21-8834

Forecasts

Persist (1/1), Elena's Gift (7/2), Terra Mitica (6/1), Greek Flame (7/1), Angels Landing (9/1)

PERSIST has been shaping up well and should have a bit more to offer at this distance, so she's preferred to Elena's Gift, who could take some pegging back if she gets her own way in front.
