Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Fifth of 13 in handicap (25/1) at this course (7.1f) 13 days ago, very slowly away. Others preferred.

10/1, last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Off 113 days and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Below form seventh of 12 in handicap (7/2) at Newcastle (8f) when last seen in March. Successful over the same C&D on penultimate start and reproduction of that form would give her a fighting chance.

11/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 13 days ago, not clear run. No surprise if he's on the premises but, at the same time, will probably find one or two too good once more.

Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Last of 7 in minor event at Kempton (6f, 300/1) 36 days ago, very slowly away. Significantly back up in trip for this handicap debut and big step forward needed.

Course winner. Winner here in August. Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 7/2) 24 days ago, left poorly placed. Enters calculations.

7/4, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 17 days ago, no match for winner. Record stands at 0-15 but he's a leading contender nonetheless.

Two wins from 50 Flat runs. Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. 6/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Ayr (8f, heavy) 77 days ago. Bit to prove back on the AW.

Won 12-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 13/2) 35 days ago, sticking to task. 2 lb nudge fair enough and should give another good account.

Forecasts

Shabs (15/8), Pittsburg (11/2), Kodebreaker (6/1), Tea Garden (13/2), Six Strings (11/1), Lucky Lucky Lucky (12/1), Mac Ailey (14/1), Channel Packet (16/1), Stand Free (16/1), Velma (20/1), Coligone Kate (66/1), Bazalgette (80/1)

Verdict

Though still a maiden following 15 starts, SHABS is clearly capable of winning a race of this type judged on recent efforts and he is taken to deservedly open his account. Velma failed to fire on her latest appearance in March but she has gone well fresh in the past and could have a big part to play if on-song. Channel Packet made every post a winning one at Chelmsford last month and is also worthy of consideration.
