9/1
Latest win at York in July. Remained in good form when sixth of 12 in handicap at Sandown (14f, good, 8/1) 34 days ago, not ideally placed. Visor back on and handy claimer takes off a valuable 7 lb.

12/1
Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 6 in handicap (13/2) at Newcastle (16.2f) 19 days ago. Had a lengthy season but should give a good account on polytrack debut from his easing mark.

22/1
20/1, seen to maximum effect when won 7-runner handicap at Salisbury (14.2f, good) 36 days ago, making all and driven clear. Up 5 lb and percentage call is to look elsewhere on polytrack debut.

7/2
Friendless in the market but made a winning British debut at this track (1¾m) last month. Not in remotely the same form back on turf at Ascot 3 weeks ago so needs to bounce back.

13/8
Lightly-raced maiden. 5/1, shaped well on his first start at this trip when second of 8 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 17 days ago, ideally needing stronger gallop. Has to be of interest again nudged up 2 lb for that near miss.

7/2
3 wins from last 4 runs, latest in 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW, 10/3) 24 days ago, carrying his head awkwardly and not doing much once he hit the front. No surprise should he find some more improvement so he's high on the shortlist.

Forecasts

Mountain Road (13/8), Sandstorm (7/2), At The Double (7/2), Danni California (9/1), Trinity Girl (10/1), Happy (12/1), Champagne City (22/1)

Verdict

MOUNTAIN ROAD came within a flared nostill of opening his account on his first try over this trip at Kempton earlier this month, and with David Simcock's charge likely to get a decent pace to aim at, he's fancied to go one better today. At The Double made it three wins from his last four starts with a typical display last month so he heads up the opposition, with Danni California another who should go well.
