Age: 4| Weight: 12-0| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 100

40/1

Fair Flat winner in Ireland but yet to better modest form over hurdles, offering precious little on handicap bow in this sphere at Musselburgh when last seen in March.

Rolypolymoly^v⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-13| J: Ben Ffrench-Davis⁽³⁾| T: A West| OR: 99| CD

9/1

Winner of juvenile events over this C&D and at Worcester last summer but largely struggled since, both in this sphere and on the Flat.

Form: 2114-06

Isabella Bee²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Liam Harrison⁽³⁾| T: F O'Brien| OR: 96

5/4

Modest form in maiden/novice company but duly improved when going close on handicap debut at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) last month. 5 lb rise fair enough and this lightly-raced 6-y-o should have more to offer.

Form: 2766-42

Pittsburg^t¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Finn Lambert| T: R Potter| OR: 89| D

6/1

Firmly on the up since switched to fences, stylish winner of handicaps at Perth and Market Rasen last month. Failed by a whisker when bidding for the hat-trick at Cartmel (17.3f, soft) and will be a threat if able to translate that improvement back to this sphere.

Form: 2-54112

Green Or Black^p,t²³

Age: 11| Weight: 10-12| J: Mr Edward Rees⁽¹⁰⁾| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 82| CD

8/1

Capitalised on a falling mark on second start back with this yard over C&D in June but she hasn't backed that up in 3 subsequent starts. Others preferred.

Form: P-91645

Only Fools^h,t⁵⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-10| J: Gearoid Harney⁽⁸⁾| T: D Pipe| OR: 82WS

10/3

Fair Flat winner in France and hit the crossbar in handicap hurdles at Newton Abbot and Worcester in May/June. Not disgraced when fourth at the latter course last time but subsequent wind op will need to help bring about some improvement if she's to take this.

Form: 65-5224

Willy Nilly¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Conor Rabbitt| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 80

8/1

Remains a maiden following 12 attempts in this sphere. Produced one of his better efforts when second over 2½m here a fortnight ago but whether he will be able to reproduce that level of form remains to be seen.

Form: 6/8-0632

Ceci Wells^b⁸⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Ellis Collier⁽⁵⁾| T: P R Webber| OR: 70WS

66/1

Little solid form on the level and hasn't fared much better over hurdles. Has undergone a wind op since her latest start in June and hopes very much pinned on that procedure sparking immediate improvement.

Form: 644-P0

Forecasts

Isabella Bee (5/4), Only Fools (10/3), Pittsburg (6/1), A Shining Moon (6/1), Green Or Black (8/1), Ambassador (8/1), Willy Nilly (8/1), Rolypolymoly (9/1), Escobedo (12/1), Leopolds Rock (12/1), Apologise (40/1), Ceci Wells (66/1)

ISABELLA BEE finished strongly when just touched off on her handicap debut at Newton Abbot and, with the potential for more back on a stiffer track, she is taken to go one better this time. If Pittsburg reproduces something akin to his improved chase form back hurdling he will be a danger to all.
