15/8
Three wins from 10 runs this year. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (7/1) at this C&D 40 days ago by 1¼ lengths from The Defiant. This 5 lb higher mark may be enough to anchor her.

11/1
Four-time C&D winner. Latest win at Bath in July. 50/1, respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 38 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good.

100/1
Cheekpieces on, eighth of 10 in minor event (67/10) at La Teste (5.5f, good). Off 118 days ahead of this handicap debut for new yard and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

16/1
Creditable 2¼ lengths second of 9 to So Smart in handicap (18/1) at Leicester (5f, heavy) 15 days ago. Hood back on. Will do well to reverse the placings with that rival, for all that she's now 7 lb better off.

10/3
Latest win at Newcastle in August. 9/2, bit below form 4½ lengths third of 9 to So Smart in handicap at Leicester (5f, heavy) 15 days ago, never nearer. Makes polytrack debut and will be a threat if he puts his best foot forward.

Winner at Leicester in October. 5/6, good second of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, soft) 13 days ago. This consistent 3-y-o looks sure to give another good account.

C&D winner. Seventh of 11 in handicap (50/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and he has questions to answer at present.

11/1
Four wins from 15 runs this year, the latest at Lingfield in August. Creditable 1¼ lengths second of 10 to Miss Nay Never in handicap (11/1) at this C&D 40 days ago and should be on the premises once more.

Forecasts

Miss Nay Never (15/8), Show Me Show Me (10/3), Lucky Ava (11/2), So Smart (15/2), Jack The Truth (11/1), The Defiant (11/1), Zim Baby (16/1), Autumn Flight (16/1), Mustaffiz (100/1)

Verdict

The most solid option is SO SMART, who has barely put a foot wrong this year and lost little caste in defeat when just touched off at Nottingham last time. Show Me Show Me was a shade below par when third to the selection at Leicester last month but he merits respect nonetheless, while The Defiant has a good chance of reversing recent C&D placings with Miss Nay Never on these revised terms.
