Jems Bond^p¹⁷⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Ryan Sexton⁽⁵⁾| T: A D Brown| OR: 55| CD

10/1

landed back-to-back 6/7f events here earlier this year. Not in same form on turf thereafter, eighth of 12 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good) when last seen in April. Better showing not ruled returned to AW under promising apprentice.

Form: 711388

Enderman^p¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 55| BF

9/2

One win from 25 Flat runs but largely consistent this year, quickly back to form when third of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 18 days ago, staying on. Should give another good account.

How Bizarre¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: K Stott| T: L Bailey| OR: 54| D

10/1

Unreliable type. Tenth of 13 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D 18 days ago, headed over 2f out and weakening. No surprise to see a better showing but his losing run tempers enthusiasm.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Faye McManoman⁽³⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 54

25/1

Tenth of 12 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 10/1) 23 days ago, losing place 3f out and beaten long way out. Handicapper continues to relinquish his grip but pick of his form has come over shorter.

Global Context¹²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: M Dods| OR: 53

80/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 10/1, ran below level of first 2 starts when fourth of 5 in minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, good) in June, dropping away. Still, she's in good hands and entitled to hold more chance now handicapping back from a break.

Form: 534

Jaminoz^b⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Cam Hardie| T: J S Goldie| OR: 47| D

8/1

3-y-o who has looked well served by refitting of blinkers, runner-up over 1m here prior to opening his account at Ayr (7.2f, heavy) 8 days ago, going on over 2f out and just kept up to work. Claims again under a penalty.

Form: 808921

Bearcardi¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P Hanagan| T: J L Eyre| OR: 52

33/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 28/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 15 days ago, weakening over 2f out. Others arrive with more pressing claims.

Form: 339088

Hardy^v¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Oliver Stammers⁽³⁾| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 50

10/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 10/1, respectable third of 13 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago, plugging on. Claims of hitting the frame again from 1 lb lower mark.

Form: 482683

Hart Fell²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: K Frost| OR: 49| CD

9/4

6-y-o who, on back of a wind op, shed maiden tag when landing 13-runner C&D handicap 3 weeks ago, by a neck from How Bizarre. Task is to build on that now but he is at least only 1 lb higher.

Form: 305741

Lady Ziana^p¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Dylan Hogan| T: D H Brown| OR: 48

66/1

Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 11 days ago, ridden home turn and keeping on. Wouldn't be certain to build on that now, however.

Form: 208305

Bobby Joe Leg¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-2| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 48| CD

25/1

3-time C&D winner. Bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D (40/1) 18 days ago, merely closing up late. Others more persuasive.

Form: 194497

(9)

The First Hurrah^t²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Hart| T: Miss Lucinda V Russell| OR: 48

14/1

Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. First run since leaving Kevin Philippart De Foy when respectable 3½ lengths fifth of 13 to Hart Fell in handicap (18/1) at this C&D 21 days ago, running on.

Form: 627-855

Stoney Lane^p²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: Phil Dennis| T: S Whitaker| OR: 47| D

11/1

Latest win at Beverley (7.4f) in July. 4/1, again ran well when creditable third of 12 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Worth consideraton again in present groove.

Form: 381233

(7)

Spirit Of Bowland¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Joanna Mason| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 46

20/1

3-y-o who has offered little to date but not seen to best effect when eighth in 13-runner C&D handicap 18 days ago, hampered 2f out/keeping on when short of room close home. Eased further 3 lb subsequently.

Form: 599968

Hart Fell (9/4), Enderman (9/2), Jaminoz (8/1), Hardy (10/1), Jems Bond (10/1), How Bizarre (10/1), Stoney Lane (11/1), The First Hurrah (14/1), Spirit Of Bowland (20/1), Bobby Joe Leg (25/1), Lucky Lucky Lucky (25/1), Bearcardi (33/1), Lady Ziana (66/1), Global Context (80/1)

A typically wide-open big-field handicap and whilst he boasts only one career success it could just pay to take a chance on ENDERMAN. He needs producing just at the right time but the way he travelled when reeled in late over C&D 3 starts back highlights he's on an exploitable mark and a good showing can be expected. Comfortable Ayr scorer Jaminoz, recent C&D winner Hart Fell and Jems Bond head up the dangers.
