One More Dream⁴^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 10-4| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽⁷⁾| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 59

1/1

Much-improved on back of breathing op/switch to AW in recent weeks, landing back-to-back Newcastle handicaps (at 6f) with a good deal to spare. Looks well up to completing the hat-trick back up at 7f.

Praise Of Shadows^p1,t²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: K Stott| T: P S McEntee| OR: 55| D

16/5

Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. 14/1, first run since leaving Lucinda Russell when second of 9 in handicap at this course (6f) 2 days ago, headed inside final 100 yds. Can give another good account.

Aurelia Gold⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽⁷⁾| T: K P De Foy| OR: 55

4/1

Maiden who went close on handful of occasions on AW last winter. Mixed bag more recently but she has made an interesting yard switch ahead of this and positive market vibes would look significant.

Arpina^p¹²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 48| BF

25/1

Seventh of 8 in minor event at Brighton (1m, good to firm) in July, forced to switch over 1f out and weakening. Proved consistent on AW previously but she's had plenty of chances from similar marks.

40/1

9/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to soft) 19 days ago, headed under 3f out and eased over 1f out. Returns to 7f/AW now but possible she will find a few too good again.

Forecasts

One More Dream (1/1), Praise Of Shadows (16/5), Aurelia Gold (4/1), Brazen Arrow (10/1), Hachert (20/1), Olivia Mary (20/1), Arpina (25/1), Brave Display (28/1), Creek Harbour (40/1), Essme (40/1), Patrioctic (150/1), Winalotwithalittle (150/1)

ONE MORE DREAM has displayed much-improved form to land each of his last 2 starts on all weather and with his rider's claim off-setting his penalty for the latest of them, he's expected to prove tough to beat in his hat-trick bid. Aurelia Gold on debut for her new yard and Praise of Shadows, who ran well here 2 days ago may emerge as the chief threats.
