Hutcheson^p1,t²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: B A Curtis| T: G Boughey

50/1

Well held in a couple of bumpers for James Owen. Now switches to the Flat for George Boughey with first-time cheekpieces added to his tongue strap. Could only consider if backed.

Reel Prospect¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara

12/1

Fair form when third on Nottingham debut in spring 2022 but not seen again until a well-held fourth over C&D 15 days ago. Entitled to strip fitter for the run.

Form: 3-4

(2)

Ciara Pearl¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 64| D

11/2

Twice-raced winner. Second on Bath debut in July before going one better on AW at Lingfield (1m) 12 days ago. The form is nothing special but there should be more to come.

Form: 21

(8)

Storm And Conquest

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: J Mitchell| T: S Crisford

85/40

New Approach gelding. Brother to very smart winner up to 12.5f Loxley and half-brother to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 1m Forest Maiden. Newcomer who makes obvious paper appeal.

Dazamay³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: A Mullen| T: P A Kirby

300/1

125/1, last of 6 in maiden at Carlisle (7f, soft) on debut 34 days ago. Can only watch.

Form: 6

Flickering Flame²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J Tate

6/4

11/4, third of 6 in maiden at Lingfield (1m, AW) on debut 21 days ago. Open to progress.

Form: 3

Rogue Warrior¹⁰⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: R Havlin| T: Tom Clover

9/2

Promising second on 1¼m Windsor debut in June. Not in quite the same form when third over the same trip at Bath in July but her absence suggests something may have come to light. Retains potential now dropping in trip on AW debut.

Form: 23

Madam Florence⁴⁵⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer

50/1

Sent off at 8/1 when eighth of 10 in novice at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 8/1) on debut in July 2022. Not seen since.

Form: 8-

Forecasts

Flickering Flame (6/4), Storm And Conquest (85/40), Rogue Warrior (9/2), Ciara Pearl (11/2), Reel Prospect (12/1), Madam Florence (50/1), Hutcheson (50/1), Dazamay (300/1)

The Crisford stable has a very healthy strike-rate here so it might be worth chancing well-bred newcomer STORM AND CONQUEST, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Fellow Newmarket raiders Rogue Warrior and Flickering Flame may give him most to do.
