20/1

Back from 11 months off when well held at Redcar last month. May have needed that outing and this run should reveal more. Cheekpieces on for first time.

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: W Buick| T: M Murphy & M Keady| OR: 80| C| D

9/2

Disappointed last time but had been in fine form previously (dual winner including over 5.2f at this course) and remains on a workable mark.

Form: 411220

Lord Uhtred²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Harry Davies| T: C Hills| OR: 79

9/2

Confirmed previous promise when landing an AW novice (7f) on final start last season but is yet to fire in 4 outings this term and has something to prove at present.

Form: 21-5677

Smalleytime²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: K P De Foy| OR: 79| D

9/1

Left debut form well behind when winning minor event at Salisbury (6f) in July and backed that up with good fourth at Kempton (7f) since. May have more to offer now sent handicapping.

Form: 914

Beelzebub⁸³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Jim Crowley| T: A Wintle| OR: 77| D

40/1

Made winning return at Newcastle (6f) in April but not really built on that and looks in the grip of the handicapper at present. Yard debut.

Form: 1-13046

Sir Oliver^p⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Stefano Cherchi| T: C A Dwyer| OR: 75| C| D

28/1

Arrives out of sorts, failing to beat a rival home at Newmarket last time. Cheekpieces reapplied now.

Form: 230709

Dark Side Thunder^p¹⁰³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Jessica Macey| OR: 74| D

6/1

Recorded back-to-back wins on the all-weather before good third of 9 in handicap at this course (7f) in May. Below par when last seen in June, however, and is still without a win on turf.

Form: 6-71135

How Impressive^t,v²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: R Kingscote| T: H Palmer| OR: 72| BF

4/1

Ran right up to best when second of 13 in handicap (3/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 21 days ago. Worth another crack at this shorter trip and is one for shortlist.

Form: 554032

Parisiac^b¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Christian Howarth⁽⁵⁾| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 72| D

14/1

Returned to winning ways at Lingfield in June and made the frame all starts since, latest when third in handicap (11/2) at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) 19 days ago. Would probably prefer quicker ground, though. Blinkers back on.

Form: 143443

Snuggle¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Saffie Osborne| T: E Walker| OR: 73| BF| D

7/1

Below par in recent starts but won on slow ground at Windsor (6f) in May and no surprise if he returns to form granted softer conditions here.

Form: 123455

(2)

Hiatus⁵⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K T O'Neill| T: C Allen| OR: 70| D

6/1

Sluiced through the mud to score at Windsor (6f) in May and back to that sort of form when creditable sixth in C&D handicap (good to soft) 55 days ago. Not out of things.

Form: 616376

Forecasts

How Impressive (4/1), Lord Uhtred (9/2), Champagne Sarah (9/2), Razzam (9/2), Dark Side Thunder (6/1), Hiatus (6/1), Snuggle (7/1), Smalleytime (9/1), Parisiac (14/1), Bell Shot (20/1), Sir Oliver (28/1), Beelzebub (40/1)

The return to sprinting could suit HOW IMPRESSIVE and he gets the nod in a tricky-looking finale. Razzam and Snuggle are also of interest.
