15/8
Very good neck second of 10 to Eye of The Water in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 14/1) 4 days ago, just failing. 4 lb better off with that rival now and he's a big player.

11/1
Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 22/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Definite chance if she puts her best foot forward now eased in class.

Three wins from 12 runs this year. Won 10-runner handicap (7/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 4 days ago by neck from Ciotog, just holding on. More needed under a penalty but respected nonetheless.

Two wins from 5 runs this year the latest at Wolverhampton in May. 9/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Sandown (8f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Likely to be on the premises.

Two wins from 4 runs this year. Creditable second of 14 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 7/1) 37 days ago, running on. Solid each-way chance.

C&D winner. Latest win at Windsor in June. Eighth of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Others make more appeal for win purposes.

C&D winner. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 11/1). Off 9 months ahead of this debut for new yard and entitled to come on for the run.

Course winner. 12/1, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to soft, 4/1) 23 days ago. Not without hope in an open-looking race.

Forecasts

Ciotog (15/8), My Ambition (9/2), Eye Of The Water (5/1), Havana Goldrush (15/2), Mr Trick (15/2), Ardbraccan (11/1), Espresso Freddo (16/1), Chifa (16/1), Alyara (22/1), Blue Collar Lad (40/1), Kraken Filly (80/1)

Verdict

CIOTOG deserves to get his head in front and is taken to do just that following his recent C&D near miss. He was just touched off by Eye of The Water on that occasion but is now 4 lb better off with that rival, before the claim of star apprentice Billy Loughnane is taken into consideration. Mr Trick put in good late work when fourth at Sandown last time and is second choice ahead of Chifa and My Ambition. The down-in-class Ardbraccan also needs a second look.
