Reigning Profit^p1⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: T Eaves| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 62| BF

7/1

Bit below form fourth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 7/2) 5 days ago, headed well inside final 1f. Has previously not looked the most enthusiastic under pressure so hopes pinned on first-time cheekpieces doing the trick.

Form: 756824

Wade's Magic^p¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Sean Kirrane⁽³⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 60| BF| D

5/1

Latest win at Southwell in August. Beaten only by one right at the top of his game when second of 8 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good, 11/4) 18 days ago. In good heart at present so he's one for consideration.

Form: 331432

Shesadabber¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Phil Dennis| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 60| D

11/2

Hot Scoop^t,v¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Ryan Sexton⁽⁵⁾| T: S England| OR: 60| BF| D

6/1

Latest win at Catterick in August. Run best excused for a second start in a row when eighth of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Catterick (5f, good to soft) 14 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Merits consideration back under this rider.

Form: 124258

16/1

25/1, won 13-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago, leading final 100 yds. This a rare outing on turf these days but he could well feature.

Form: 312001

Navy Drums^p¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: George Downing| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 55

9/1

20/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, back on track when fourth of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good) 17 days ago, carrying head bit awkwardly. More required.

Captain Corcoran^h⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: E J Alston| OR: 50| D

11/4

16/1, turned in best effort of the season to end a lengthy losing run when comfortably landing 14-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) 8 days ago, quickening clear when shaken up approaching final 1f. High on the shortlist under a 5 lb penalty.

Form: 9-90301

Tilsworth Ony Ta²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: C Lee| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 53| D

11/1

Winner at Windsor in July. 6/1, ran up to his best when second of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago, headed final 50 yds. Back on turf today and others seemingly look stronger.

Form: 518842

Lucky Beggar⁹²

Age: 12| Weight: 8-9| J: G Lee| T: D C Griffiths| OR: 45| D

66/1

Twenty runs since last win in 2021. Eighth of 12 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 33/1) 3 months ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 630058

Go Poppy²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Mollie Phillips⁽³⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 45

12/1

25/1, best effort despite seeming to find the trip on the sharp side when fourth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago, never nearer. Remains early days.

Form: 786654

(7)

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: P Mathers| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 45

100/1

100/1, failed to come on for recent run when 8 lengths ninth of 14 to Captain Corcoran in handicap at Southwell (5f) 8 days ago. Difficult ask.

Form: 74-2909

Red Stripes^b²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 8-9| J: Mark Winn⁽⁵⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 45| D

100/1

Fifty runs since last win in 2020. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, 8 lengths twelfth of 13 to stablemate Brandy Station in handicap (100/1) at Southwell (5f) 20 days ago. Blinkers back on.

Forecasts

Captain Corcoran (11/4), Wade's Magic (5/1), Shesadabber (11/2), Hot Scoop (6/1), Reigning Profit (7/1), Navy Drums (9/1), Tilsworth Ony Ta (11/1), Go Poppy (12/1), Brandy Station (16/1), High Opinion (22/1), Lucky Beggar (66/1), Good To Go (100/1), Red Stripes (100/1)

CAPTAIN CORCORAN had a bit up his sleeve when ending a lengthy losing run at Southwell under this rider 8 days ago and while he may not appeal as an obvious sort to follow up, Eric Alston's charge could take some stopping if translating that form back to turf under a penalty. Wade's Magic is going through a fine spell so he's put forward as the main danger, ahead of Hot Scoop and the consistent Shesadabber.
