Rebel Territory³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Jim Crowley| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 95| CD

6/1

Won this race 12 months ago and added to tally on Sandown reappearance in May. Last 2 runs have been a little disappointing and he's running off 7 lb higher than last year.

Form: 61-1646

Revich^v⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽⁷⁾| T: R Spencer| OR: 95| BF| D

12/1

Largely consistent sort who was a good third in Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood in July. Another creditable effort when close third of 14 at Ayr (1m) on latest start 6 weeks ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 323983

Ghaly⁹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-13| J: D Tudhope| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 94| D

3/1

Very low-mileage 6-y-o who was better than ever in 2 outings this summer, second at Hamilton before going one better at York (1m, good to firm) in July. Won on testing ground earlier in career. Respected under Tudhope.

Form: 1412/21

Notre Belle Bete³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽⁵⁾| T: A M Balding| OR: 94| D

10/1

Three AW wins at the start of the year but has found life tougher since. Latest 1m Kempton third was respectable but he remains 2 lb above his last successful mark.

Form: 136063

Ropey Guest^v⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: T P Queally| T: G G Margarson| OR: 92| D

12/1

Yet to score this term but he's been runner-up in both the Buckingham Palace and Bunbury Cup. Good fifth of 16 in another competitive handicap at Ascot (7f) last time. Had form in mud earlier in career. No reason why he won't give his running again.

Form: 422035

Lawful Command⁹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: B J Meehan| OR: 91| C| D

13/2

Dual 1m Goodwood winner in the spring who has continued in very good nick, finishing fifth (Revich third) in Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood in July. Off since. Won on soft ground here last autumn.

Form: 3-11545

(2)

King Of Conquest²⁶⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: James Doyle| T: C Appleby| OR: 88| BF

5/1

Made a winning debut at Sandown last summer. Failed to advance his form in 3 subsequent outings (last seen running at Meydan in February) but he does return from a break as an unexposed sort. Market confidence would look significant.

Form: 13-26

(8)

Repertoire³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Olivia Haines⁽⁷⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 84| D

40/1

Successful on his reappearance at Ascot but hasn't managed to go on from that effort, albeit latest 1¼m course fourth respectable.

Form: 734983

(7)

Sunrise Valley³⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 83| C| D

20/1

Won novices at this track (7f) and Chelmsford (1m) last year. Hasn't managed to advance her form in a trio of handicaps this year, with latest C&D fourth only respectable. A soft surface will need to spark some improvement.

Form: 119-434

(10)

Stately Home²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Josephine Gordon| T: S Lycett| OR: 78| BF| D

11/2

Latest win at Pontefract (1m, heavy) in April. Arrives on the back of 2 good placed efforts at Goodwood (1m) this autumn. Another who can't be discounted.

Form: 315232

(3)

Seattle King¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Tyler Heard⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 80

125/1

Well beaten on both starts since leaving Ralph Beckett and has plenty to prove for now.

Form: 47-3508

(12)

Star From Afarhh^h1²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Saffie Osborne⁽³⁾| T: E Walker| OR: 79

50/1

Won a July course novice on debut last summer but has struggled to make an impact this year, including on recent Goodwood stable debut after a break. Wears a hood for the first time.

Form: 64-5708

Forecasts

Ghaly (3/1), King Of Conquest (5/1), Stately Home (11/2), Rebel Territory (6/1), Lawful Command (13/2), Notre Belle Bete (10/1), Ropey Guest (12/1), Revich (12/1), Sunrise Valley (20/1), Dashing Roger (33/1), Repertoire (40/1), Star From Afarhh (50/1), Seattle King (125/1)

Taylor Fisher takes a handy 7 lb off REVICH's back and that may help this reliable sort to get his head back in front for the first time this year. Danny Tudhope has ridden the selection on his last 2 outings but he's on Ghaly this time and Saaed bin Suroor's charge could go well as his York success in midsummer came at the expense of the smart Blue For You. Fellow Godolphin-trained runner King of Conquest is also interesting back from a break.
