Diligent Harry⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 107| D

13/2

Quickly made up into a smart sprinter last year, winning 3 times on AW and close second to Happy Romance in the Hackwood Stakes here. Good second in Doncaster listed on reappearance but limited impact twice since. This just his second try over 5f.

Form: 320-200

Existent^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: S C Williams| OR: 102| D

40/1

Improved for return to sprinting for this yard, landing back-to-back AW handicaps early in the year and back to best when fourth behind Raasel in Coral Charge at Sandown in July. Couple of heavy defeats since raise a question.

Form: 250490

Look Out Louis^p¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Barry McHugh| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 101| D

14/1

Has had an excellent year, wasting no time getting over his York blip for win number 4 at Haydock a fortnight ago. Clearly thriving but this asks a different question.

Form: 210101

Method⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Rob Hornby| T: M Meade| OR: 102| C

20/1

Smart performer who ran right up to form back over 5f when third in Sprint Stakes at Sandown in July. Too free in the Hackwood Stakes here next time and never a factor switched to handicaps in the Stewards' Cup.

Form: 07-4300

Mountain Peak¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Tom Marquand| T: E Walker| OR: 105| D

25/1

All-the-way winner of an Ascot handicap in July and bounced back from a brace of lesser efforts when third to Look Out Louis at Haydock a fortnight ago. This his first crack at Group company but he doesn't have a lot to find.

Form: 521803

Tis Marvellous^t²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-3| J: P Hanagan| T: C G Cox| OR: 109| D

8/1

Enhanced excellent Ascot record when landing 8-runner listed race on final start in 2021. Third in this race prior to that and warmed up for this with another Beverley Bullet victory last month. Just about the form pick.

Form: 131-601

(7)

Manaccan^t¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P J Dobbs| T: J Ryan| OR: 107| D

11/4

Handicap winner at Ascot last month and gained breakthrough win at listed level in 8-runner contest at Doncaster 10 days ago. Clearly in top form so has to go on the shortlist.

Form: 752131

Mitbaahy⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 107| D

9/2

Built on a good reappearance run when taking 5f Hamilton conditions race and took a big step forward when stylish winner of Sandown listed event. Progressed further and looked unlucky not to win when neck second to Raasel at latter course in July and may not have handled Goodwood last time.

Form: 0-21120

(12)

Adaay To Remember²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Louis Steward| T: P Owens| OR: 104| BF

14/1

Successful twice over 6f as a 3-y-o and better than ever when runner-up in Group 3 Summer Stakes at York in July. Raced on wrong part of the track at Naas last time so that effort can be forgiven. First try over 5f.

Form: 133-425

(10)

Chil Chil^t¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 109

11/2

Group 3 Chipchase winner in June 2021 and she's a massive player on that form. Yet to really fire this term, but she did travel with purpose in Group 1 Sprint Cup fitted with a tongue tie a fortnight ago and this is easier back over 5f.

Form: 53-8035

(5)

Teresa Mendoza^p,t²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: M Harley| T: K J Condon| OR: 100

16/1

Certainly wasn't winning out of turn in listed company at the Curragh in June. Couple of fair efforts since, doing quite well to finish third in the Ballyogan Stakes at Naas given her draw.

Form: 951473

(11)

Attagirl¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: N Callan| T: K R Burke| OR: 92| D

66/1

Useful sprinter who won twice as a 2-y-o, including listed event at York. Best effort this season when third to Manaccan at Doncaster 10 days ago and she's up against it in this deeper race.

Form: 6-97673

Forecasts

Manaccan (11/4), Mitbaahy (9/2), Chil Chil (11/2), Diligent Harry (13/2), Tis Marvellous (8/1), Look Out Louis (14/1), Adaay To Remember (14/1), White Lavender (14/1), Teresa Mendoza (16/1), Method (20/1), Mountain Peak (25/1), Existent (40/1), Attagirl (66/1)

Having travelled with a lot more purpose fitted with a tongue tie in Group 1 company last time, CHIL CHIL receives the tentative vote down in class/trip. Manaccan and Tis Marvellous both warmed up for this with victories at Doncaster and Beverley respectively and they head the opposition.
