9/2
Course winner. Latest win at Lingfield in June. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 13/2) 28 days ago. Wasn't seen to best effect on that occasion and it wouldn't be much of a surprise to see him bounce back with a bold show.

11/4
One win from 25 Flat runs. Didn't need to improve to win 10-runner minor event (4/1) at this C&D 21 days ago, keeping on gamely. More needed returned to handicap company but he showed a good attitude that day and is certainly not ruled out.

13/2
Creditable fifth of 12 in minor event at this course (10f, 3/1) 14 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Blinkers on 1st time and possibilities if responding well to the headgear.

20/1
Respectable ninth of 15 in handicap (33/1) at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft). Off 121 days. First run for yard after leaving Richard Anthony Foley and she's probably worth taking on.

10/3
12/1, bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 22 days ago. Will need to better that if he's to make a serious impact here but, with just 6 starts under his belt, his best days may well be ahead of him.

Tenth of 14 in handicap (14/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 30 days ago. Back down in trip for this polytrack debut and others make more appeal on balance.

Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable sixth of 14 in minor event at Bath (8f, good, 20/1) 50 days ago, nearest finish. Improvement needed now pitched into a handicap.

10/1
C&D winner. Good fifth of 12 in handicap (15/2) at this course (10f) 14 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time and he's not without each-way hope.

Forecasts

Shabs (11/4), Golden Moon (10/3), Bo Taifan (9/2), El Royale (13/2), Darker (8/1), James Bradley (10/1), He Can Dance (18/1), Clandestinely (20/1), Ju Ju Gabor (20/1)

Verdict

The vote goes to BO TAIFAN, who wasn't seen to best effect back from a break at Wolverhampton but was in good form prior to that, landing a 7f handicap here and a 1m minor event at Lingfield earlier in the summer. On the latter occasion he cosily beat the re-opposing Shabs and a 3 lb swing is unlikely to be enough for that rival to turn the tables. Still, Shabs, who finally got his head in front over C&D 3 weeks ago, is clear second choice ahead of El Royale and Golden Moon.

  1. Bo Taifan9/2
  2. Shabs11/4
  3. El Royale13/2
