Surprise Picture^v²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: David Probert| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 75| CD

5/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year. Latest win here in September. Creditable second of 11 in handicap at this C&D (9/2) 21 days ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 934412

Novak⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: William Pyle⁽⁵⁾| T: I Jardine| OR: 73| D

3 wins from 15 runs this year. 13/2, respectable third of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 4 days ago. Should remain competitive if the race doesn't come too soon.

Miss Mai Tai³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: R Coakley| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 74

20/1

3 wins from 8 runs this year. 10/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Had been in good order prior to latest effort, so no surprise if she bounces back.

Form: 011128

Visibility¹³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 72| CD

12/1

Produced a career best with a game victory under this apprentice in 13-runner handicap at Southwell in May but didn't fire at Beverley on subsequent run. Return to tapeta should help back from 4 months off.

Form: 565015

(6)

Tartan Skirt¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: D Loughnane| OR: 72

16/1

First run since leaving David O'Meara when sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 22/1) 13 days ago. Should build on latest outing and looks well treated on best efforts.

Form: 808-886

(2)

Triggered¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 72| CD

14/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 12 runs this year. Latest win here in May. Below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 50/1) 13 days ago, not ideally placed. Likely to be back on his game.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 73| CD

7/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win here in September. 9/2, good second of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 25 days ago. Makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 372412

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 73

11/1

2 wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 12/1) 48 days ago. One to consider.

Form: 153881

80/1

50/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 21 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 331-597

Thapa VC^t⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Rob Hornby| T: M G Rimell| OR: 70| CD

6/1

4-time C&D winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in May. 6/1, below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 55 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Can get involved if everything drops right.

Form: 169777

(11)

Reidh⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 71

5/1

Fifth of 6 in handicap at York (7.9f, good, 20/1) 44 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Others are more persuasive.

Form: 3-38625

Forecasts

Reidh (5/1), Surprise Picture (5/1), Thapa VC (6/1), Supaspecialawesome (6/1), Novak (7/1), Abbey's Dream (7/1), Tyke (11/1), Visibility (12/1), Triggered (14/1), Tartan Skirt (16/1), Miss Mai Tai (20/1), Reputation (80/1)

ABBEY'S DREAM is on the up since fitted with cheekpieces and, following a good second at Newcastle, she's worth a chance to resume winning ways at the possible expense of Surprise Picture, who goes well at this track. Tyke is another one to consider.
