William Hill Farewell Flat Handicap

Won the Great St Wilfrid at Ripon for Tracy Waggott last summer and took his form to a new level when landing Ascot handicap for new yard in July. Smart effort when close third in Portland here last month but below par both starts since.

Four wins from 12 runs this year and is ending the season on a roll, career best when winning 9-runner handicap (11/2) at Catterick (5f, heavy) 7 days ago by short head from Glorious Angel, just holding on. 3 lb rise may prove enough to prevent the hat-trick, though.

Dual winner for Keith Dalgleish in June and took his form to another level for his new yard with further success over C&D and in Stewards' Cup (heavy) at Goodwood. Form has dipped off of late but is proven under conditions and is back on a decent mark.

Useful at 2 yrs who caused a surprise when winner of the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot last summer. No show in 3 starts this term, though, so plenty to prove.

Winner at Newbury in August and confirmed himself still on the upgrade when resuming winning ways at Nottingham (5f, soft) 10 days ago with a bit in hand. Must be respected.

Won the Portland here last season off similar mark and picked up wins at Chester and Ascot last month. Not seen to best effect last 2 starts but ground is a slight concern.

Completed hat-trick on the AW in January and came close to ending losing run the last twice, short-head second of 9 to Vintage Clarets in handicap (17/2) at Catterick (5f, heavy) last week, just failing. Player.

Back-to-back wins at Haydock (heavy)/Chepstow in August. Mixed record off revised mark since, 2 lengths fourth of 9 to Vintage Clarets in handicap at Catterick (5f, heavy, 10/3) 7 days ago.

Veteran who picked up another win at York in July before defying a penalty at Pontefract a week later. Last 3 starts suggests he has gone off the boil, however.

Creditable 1½ lengths third of 9 to Vintage Clarets in handicap (16/1) at Catterick (5f, heavy) 7 days ago but up against from 4 lb out of the handicap here.
