Achnamara^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Connor Beasley| T: P A Kirby| OR: 87| D

12/1

Useful earlier in his career. Recent efforts don't suggest he's capable of that level nowadays but he's still good enough to make an impact in a seller.

Form: 241-007

(5)

Edge Of Darkness⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: A Mullen| T: C Johnston| OR: 84| D

8/13

Pretty useful 3-y-o who completed a hat-trick over this trip this summer. Better than ever when a close second in a 1¾m Redcar handicap 9 days ago and he's the one to beat down in grade.

Form: 119652

Skilled Warrior^p¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 76

10/3

Struck on his 1m Newcastle reappearance in April but has been well below that form since. His stamina has to be taken on trust too (well held previous attempt at 1½m) but this is a big drop in class.

Form: 100073

Big Hamish^p⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie

125/1

Tailed off over 1m and 6f this summer. Can't make a case for.

Form: 00

Beauty Blaze^v1¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Cam Hardie| T: P D Niven

66/1

Pulled up in 2 juvenile hurdles ahead of this switch to the Flat with a visor added.

Glowing Flame^h1⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: P J McDonald| T: E Bethell

9/2

Sent off at 22/1 when refusing to race on his 1m Nottingham debut in August. Connections waste no time dropping him into a seller over a much longer trip. Hood also added.

Form: R

Eternal Sunshine²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Amie Waugh⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie

150/1

Remote fourth of 5 on her 5f course debut last month. Significantly up in trip now.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Edge Of Darkness (8/13), Skilled Warrior (10/3), Glowing Flame (9/2), Achnamara (12/1), Beauty Blaze (66/1), Big Hamish (125/1), Eternal Sunshine (150/1)

This should concern the top 3 in the weights. EDGE OF DARKNESS has less to prove than former stablemate Achnamara and Grant Tuer's Skilled Warrior so he's the selection.
