(3)

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 62| C

Course winner. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm, 17/2) 44 days ago, just unable to reel in prominently ridden pair. Significantly up in trip. Can make presence felt.

Neverbeen To Paris²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Liam Keniry| T: P G Murphy| OR: 62

Fourteen runs since last win in 2018 but ran creditably on return to AW when second of 6 in handicap (12/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 26 days ago. Place claims if in same form.

Form: 026482

Placated⁹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: George Wood| T: Dr J D Scargill| OR: 60

Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft), eased down at least a length close home. 8 lb higher now but merits serious respect after 92 days off.

Form: 251351

(6)

Central City^p³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Mr Bradley Furniss⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 60| C

Won here in May but seemingly going through the motions since, never involved when seventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 20/1) 31 days ago.

Form: 215657

(10)

Janus^v²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: P J McDonald| T: S Hodgson| OR: 60

Won on stable debut at Lingfield in June and made frame on next 4 starts. Caught out for pace in slowly-run race last time but is a generally reliable sort and should give his running.

Form: 142235

Infiniti⁹^{(ex 4)}

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽⁵⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 56

Successful over hurdles at Market Rasen in May and has won 4 of 5 on the Flat since, settling matters very quickly at Ripon (2m) last week. Hard to beat under a 4 lb penalty if showing up in similar form. Engaged 5.00 Carlisle Wednesday.

Form: 7-11121

(9)

Diamond Cutter^b³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Stefano Cherchi⁽³⁾| T: D Menuisier| OR: 57

Remains a maiden after a disappointing campaign, only tenth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 38 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Chance if rediscovering old form.

Form: 4-45360

(7)

Ocean Beyond⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Joey Haynes| T: F Brennan| OR: 52

Little show on first start since leaving Robyn Brisland when ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 40 days ago (off 17 months prior). Significantly up in trip. Hard to fancy.

Form: 37/8-9

(8)

Percy's Prince^p¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Jason Watson| T: C Hobson| OR: 51

Won final start for Amanda Perrett last October but was beaten over hurdles and in amateurs event at Lingfield 15 days ago on other outings for this yard. Can't be recommended.

Form: 06621-0

(4)

Agent Of Fortune^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 8-9| J: Frederick Larson⁽⁵⁾| T: A Carson| OR: 46| C

Course winner. In the frame for second consecutive start when third of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm, 11/1) 18 days ago, again slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive.

Form: 524933

Forecasts

Infiniti (7/4), Placated (11/4), Smokey Malone (11/2), Neverbeen To Paris (15/2), Agent Of Fortune (8/1), Janus (10/1), Diamond Cutter (20/1), Central City (33/1), Percy's Prince (50/1), Ocean Beyond (66/1)

INFINITI has been on a real roll this summer and will take all the beating again if lining up (also engaged at Carlisle on Wednesday). Should she not run, impressive Yarmouth scorer Placated would be the one to be on, with Smokey Malone also respected upped in trip.
