Kit Gabriel^p¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: J P Fahy| T: D Loughnane| OR: 76| D

11/4

Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap (9/1) at this C&D 16 days ago, running on. Solid claims off the same mark.

Form: 2904-44

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 75| CD

9/2

Unreliable sort. C&D winner. Eighteen runs since last win in 2020. 66/1, last of 17 in handicap at York (7f, good) 57 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form.

Form: 4-60200

18/1

C&D winner. Eighth of 11 in handicap (33/1) at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago. Would be a threat if she were to put her best foot forward.

13/2

C&D winner. Latest win here in August. 9/2, fifth of 6 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good) 27 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time and possibilities if responding well to the new headgear.

Form: 315715

El Hombre¹⁵⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Morgan Cole⁽⁵⁾| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 70| CD

22/1

Three-time C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in March. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 12/1). Off 150 days but each-way chance if fully tuned-up.

Form: 645155

Newyorkstateofmind²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 68| CD

9/2

C&D winner. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 14/1) 28 days ago, never nearer. Not the easiest to win with but couldn't rule out all the same.

Form: 930573

Bossy Parker^h1¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: George Wood| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 67

50/1

40/1, last of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, soft) 10 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and hooded for 1st time. Probably best to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Imperial Dream (9/4), Kit Gabriel (11/4), Nogo's Dream (16/5), Motagally (9/2), Newyorkstateofmind (9/2), Gannon Glory (13/2), Belle Fourche (18/1), El Hombre (22/1), Starproof (28/1), Revisit (33/1), Bossy Parker (50/1)

The most appealing of these is KIT GABRIEL, who did well under the circumstances on just his second start of the season (also just second run for this yard) when fourth in the C&D handicap won by Minnetonka earlier this month. The winner of that race did the form no harm at all when runner-up in a competitive contest at Pontefract on Thursday. Nogo's Dream put in a good shift at Kempton last time and is just about second choice ahead of Newyorkstateofmind.
