Has won twice this season, at this course (5.7f) in May and at Chepstow (5.1f) in June. Again ran creditably when fifth of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good, 15/2) 39 days ago. Can give her running once more.

Confederation^t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Connor Planas⁽³⁾| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 65| D

10/3

Back to best when runner-up here (5.7f) in August, but not quite in the same form when fourth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 13/2) 2 weeks ago. On a workable mark and he can make another bold bid.

Moonlight Dreamer²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: R Havlin| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 63

20/1

Improved-third at Windsor (5.1f, firm) in July but hasn't built on that effort in 2 starts since, sixth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to soft, 16/1) 22 days ago. Needs to resume progress back on firmer ground.

Form: 7346

Katar^t¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 59

11/2

Ran well when third at this C&D in July and has continued in good heart since, fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm, 10/1) 16 days ago. Merits consideration with more still to offer at 5f.

Forecasts

Jax Edge (2/1), Confederation (10/3), Moulin Booj (7/2), Katar (11/2), Beau Roc (11/1), Ange De L'Amour (14/1), Moonlight Dreamer (20/1), Glamorous Star (25/1), Corinthian Kid (66/1)

MOULIN BOOJ ran well having 3 runs in the space of a week in August, getting off the mark at Wolverhampton and just running out of steam over 6f when fourth at Thirsk on his latest outing. He is taken to resume winning ways back down in trip, with Confederation feared most having made the frame here on his last 2 starts. Katar completes the shortlist.
