9/4
Promising sort. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 7/4, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Bath (14f, good) 7 days ago, going clear entering final 1f. Still looked far from the finished article then and big player with prospect of more to come.

11/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago, making only laboured progress 2f out and never on terms. Cheekpieces go on now upped significantly in trip.

12/1
Ran up to best when runner-up at Carlisle (11f, soft) in June but proved disappointing when last of 6 at Beverley (12.1f) 3 weeks ago, fading last ½f having had the run of things. Bounce back called for now equipped with first-time cheekpieces.

20/1 and visored for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago, weakening over 2f out. Others make greater appeal upped significantly in trip.

28/1
Opened account in first-time blinkers at Lingfield (10f) in January and dispelled a lesser effort when runner-up at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in April. Hasn't always looked the most straightforward but Hollie Doyle an eye-catching booking on return.

5/2
Lightly-raced maiden. Produced best effort to date when second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 11/2) 58 days ago, conceding first run but keeping on. Remains low-mileage and she ought to have more to offer on that evidence.

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 6 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, firm, 25/1) 19 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Something to find on form.

Forecasts

Trooper Bisdee (9/4), Selenachorus (5/2), Portoro (5/2), Optician (12/1), Kittykarma (14/1), Ausdaisia (14/1), Show Me The Wire (25/1), The Pug (28/1), Congruent (66/1)

Verdict

TROOPER BISDEE took his record in handicaps to 2-3 despite looking far from the finished article at Bath 7 days ago and, just the type to go on improving for his shrewd stable, he looks to hold sound claims once more. Portoro bolted up himself on handicap debut latest and along with Selenachorus heads up the dangers.
