Seattle King⁸⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Tyler Heard⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 87| D

100/1

Highly tried as a juvenile after making a winning debut. Failed to make a significant impact in a brace of handicaps in June and since left Ralph Beckett. Mark looks too high

Form: 147-35

(4)

Bell Shot²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: C Hills| OR: 85| D

11/4

Confirmed the promise of his reappearance when landing a Newbury handicap in June and improved another chink for latest win at that venue a month ago. Up 6 lb but manner of latest success suggests that could be lenient.

Form: 41-4131

(9)

Sense Of Power²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Davies⁽³⁾| T: C Appleby| OR: 85| BF| D

7/2

Off 9 months/gelded, won 4-runner maiden on the July course in July. Failed to land the odds under a penalty at Kempton but well bred and in top hands so could easily improve now handicapping.

Form: 2-12

Baileysgutfeeling³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: K P De Foy| OR: 83| D

6/1

Given a break and responded with a career-best effort when doubling tally at Lingfield last month, finding plenty. 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.

Form: 312-361

(10)

Wajd^t³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Thore Hammer-Hansen| T: P Owens| OR: 82

20/1

Yarmouth novice winner (6f) at 2 yrs and found plenty for pressure when gaining first handicap success on the July course. Didn't look straightforward last time and now goes up in trip.

Form: 10-5416

(2)

War In Heaven⁹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 81

33/1

Won a brace of AW contests for Andrew Balding during the winter. Attitude seemed to prevent him progressing after and has left that yard but joined another successful stable and now gelded.

Form: 114286

(3)

The Mouse King²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 80| D

16/1

Seven-length winner of 9-runner handicap at Southwell last month. Not far off that level under a penalty at Kempton but up another 4 lb and needs to improve if he's as effective on turf.

Form: 528213

(6)

Sabyinyo^h1²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Dane O'Neill| T: M R Channon| OR: 78

33/1

Got off the mark in 1m Brighton novice in May but too free to see his race out both outings since. Drop back in trip will help.

Form: 24176

(5)

Guess¹³⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 78| D

12/1

Didn't need to improve on Irish form to make a successful debut for Ralph Beckett in April. Disappointing turf/handicap debut over C&D a month later and off since (gelded).

Form: 8417

(12)

Chola Empire^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Hayley Turner| T: D M Simcock| OR: 78| D

17/2

Winning debut on the AW in October and matched that form when third at Kempton 3 weeks later, ideally needing a stronger pace. Off 10 months and sound return fitted with a hood on the July course but that confirms his mark is a stiff one.

Form: 13-5

(11)

Mount Kosciuszko^b⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: J P Spencer| T: R Hannon| OR: 77

9/1

Big improver since fitted with blinkers, completing hat-trick at Epsom last week. Up 4 lb in a better race but clearly demands respect.

Form: 4-24111

(7)

Astral Beau^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: S W Kelly| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 77| D

17/2

Won on debut at Leicester over this trip in April and reacted well to cheekpieces when doubling tally on the July course last month. That was a messy race and this is deeper.

Form: 144371

Forecasts

Bell Shot (11/4), Sense Of Power (7/2), Baileysgutfeeling (6/1), Astral Beau (17/2), Chola Empire (17/2), Mount Kosciuszko (9/1), Guess (12/1), The Mouse King (16/1), Wajd (20/1), Sabyinyo (33/1), War In Heaven (33/1), Seattle King (100/1)

BELL SHOT turned a 3-y-o handica at Newbury into a one-sided affair a month ago, and given the impression he created, the handicapper's revised mark may not prevent further success. Mount Kosciuszko has reacted really well to blinkers in recent weeks and is a threat, along with Sense of Power.
