10/3, won 12-runner handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm) 6 days ago. Of plenty of interest again under a penalty.

Unreliable sort. Course winner. Twenty runs since last win in 2022. 8/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago. Hard to win with.

9/4

3-time C&D winner. 4 wins from 14 runs this year. Latest win here in August. 10/3, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 341113

15/2

80/1

18/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good) 69 days ago. First run for yard after leaving James Horton. Others have achieved more.

40/1

Last of 11 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago. Hard to make a solid case for on the back of that effort.

40/1

Fourteenth of 20 in handicap at this course (5f, good to soft, 18/1) 12 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Not a guaranteed stayer and has a bit to prove.

Form: 355730

Burning The Bails^v¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: P J McDonald| T: R M Smith| OR: 57

50/1

40/1 and visored for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, soft) 16 days ago. Hard to fancy.

Form: 628897

(3)

Spartakos^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Jason Hart| T: K Scott| OR: 53| CD

4/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Musselburgh in September. Did enough to think he's still in form when fifth of 9 in handicap (7/2) at Catterick (7f, heavy) 10 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 346515

Rogue Force¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: J Fanning| T: R M Smith| OR: 50| D

13/2

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Ninth of 13 in handicap at this course (8f, good to soft, 28/1) 11 days ago, not clear run. Can't be completely written off.

Form: 899939

Forecasts

Jkr Cobbler (9/4), Kalganov (7/2), Spartakos (4/1), Rogue Force (13/2), Tremendous Times (15/2), Rory (16/1), Code Purple (18/1), Water Of Leith (22/1), Kraken Power (40/1), Keep Me Stable (40/1), Burning The Bails (50/1), New Tycoon (80/1)

JKR COBBLER has enjoyed a fruitful second half of the season at this track and he's fancied to add another win on the back of a good effort here 12 days ago. Last-time-out winner Kalganov is a big player and Code Purple can't be ruled out.
