9/4
4/1, ran respectably over 3f longer trip when third of 8 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 5 days ago, no extra last ½f. Cheekpieces on 1st time and partnered by promising 5 lb claimer.

6/4
Unreliable type. Good third of 10 in nursery at Southwell (8.1f, well-backed 11/4) 29 days ago. Has looked less than straightforward but worth a chance stepped up in trip today (has also been gelded).

11/2
Unreliable sort. 9/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, again looked a hard ride when third of 5 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 9 days ago, better placed than most. Headgear left off today.

5/1
Again showed little when last of 9 in minor event (200/1) at Leicester (8.2f, good to firm) 3 months ago. Upped in trip for this handicap debut (also gelded since last seen) and a market check is advised.

Forecasts

Downtown Dubai (6/4), Gilded Moon (9/4), Al Ghanim (5/1), The Pug (11/2), Probable (12/1)

Verdict

DOWNTOWN DUBAI has looked less than straightforward previously but a combination of a longer trip/a gelding operation could be just what's required to enable Charlie Johnston's charge to open his account. First-time cheekpieces may see Gilded Moon go close so she heads up the opposition with a talented 5-lb claimer booked, while Al Ghanim is worth a market check on handicap debut, too.

  1. Downtown Dubai6/4
  2. Gilded Moon9/4
  3. Al Ghanim5/1
