Red Bond^p¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K Dalgleish| OR: 67| CD

7/2

Ungenuine type. C&D winner in September. 10/1, last of 14 in handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good) 17 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good.

Hooflepuff^v¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-3| J: Cam Hardie| T: H Bethell| OR: 66| CD

28/1

Four-time C&D winner. Ninth of 11 in handicap (20/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good) 13 days ago. Back up in trip and it's by no means beyond the realms of possibility that he'll bounce back now returned to this venue.

Form: 3D-3709

(2)

Tribal Commander^p,t³⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: S W Kelly| T: Mrs S Leech| OR: 65| C

33/1

Course winner. 16/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (16f, good) 38 days ago, slowly away. Down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Will probably find this trip too sharp.

Form: 05-5140

(7)

Broomy Law^b1¹⁷⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 62

28/1

Tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good, 14/1), slowly away. Off 175 days and another struggle could be on the cards, unless the first-time blinkers work the oracle.

Form: 453980

Arab Cinder¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: L Morris| T: W J Knight| OR: 63

7/1

Creditable seventh of 13 in handicap (5/1) at Kempton (11f) 17 days ago, never nearer. Down another 2 lb and she's not without each-way hope.

Form: 5-45847

(6)

Showman¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: George Rooke| T: H Morrison| OR: 62| BF

11/8

Good second of 13 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 4/1) 17 days ago, clear of rest. 3 lb nudge fair enough and likely to make a bold bid to go one better here, provided he takes to this surface.

Form: 88-9342

(4)

Rochebrune⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽⁷⁾| T: George Baker| OR: 54| BF

15/2

10/3, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 44 days ago. Back up in trip on this tapeta debut and she merits serious consideration.

Form: 934354

(8)

Mr Rumbalicious^h⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Liam Keniry| T: A King| OR: 53

11/2

Below form sixth of 13 in handicap (10/1) at Ffos Las (10f, heavy) 62 days ago. Needs to raise his game but it could be that this new trip will be the catalyst for some improvement.

Form: 07-0576

Forecasts

Showman (11/8), Red Bond (7/2), Mr Rumbalicious (11/2), Arab Cinder (7/1), Rochebrune (15/2), Broomy Law (28/1), Hooflepuff (28/1), Tribal Commander (33/1)

SHOWMAN is gradually going the right way and this looks a good opportunity for the 3-y-o to open his account. He pulled nicely clear of the rest when just touched off at Kempton recently and remains on a feasible mark following a 3 lb rise. The return to this trip will help Rochebrune, who was doing her best work in the closing stages when fourth over 1¼m at Lingfield last time. George Baker's charge is second choice ahead of Mr Rumbalicious.
