18/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 9/2) 35 days ago. Can give a good account.

12/1

Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (7/2) at Lingfield (7f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Up 2 lb but he's not taken lightly.

Form: 825241

Eyeshadow²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: K Shoemark| T: H & R Charlton| OR: 66| BF

10/3

From a talented family but she failed to build on earlier promise when third of 6 on her handicap debut at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm, 5/4) 27 days ago. Remains with potential so she has to be taken seriously eased 1 lb.

Form: 7543

11/2

Winner at Chelmsford City in June. Creditable sixth of 11 in handicap (11/8) at Chelmsford City (8f) 22 days ago so he's in the mix.

5/1

13/2, suffered a poor run when sixth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago, never nearer. Can make presence felt.

Forecasts

Wilde And Dandy (10/3), Eyeshadow (10/3), Ideal Guest (5/1), Rhythmic Acclaim (5/1), Inverinate (11/2), King of The Dance (12/1), Arbaawi (12/1), La Rav (16/1), Meng Tian (18/1)

A case can be made for plenty of these but the most persuasive one is for EYESHADOW, who didn't hit the heights expected on her handicap debut when third at Chepstow but is well bred and remains one to be interested in off a handy-looking mark. Arbaawi is feared most on the back of his recent Lingfield success, with Rhythmic Acclaim, Meng Tian and Wilde And Dandy all in the mix too.
