9/2
Sole victory came on his debut in 2022. Ran to only a similar level as on reappearance when seventh of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Beverley (8.4f, good) 17 days ago. Lurks on a dangerous mark as he drops back in trip.

9/4
Hasn't won since successful at this C&D back in 2022 but he's been in good heart this season, third of 12 in handicap here (6f, good, 6/1) 10 days ago. Respected as he returns to this longer trip.

Four-time C&D winner, with latest success here in October. Caught eye when seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 9/1) 29 days ago, finishing with running left. Major player at this venue.

In first-time visor, not discredited on his turf debut when third of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Pontefract (8f, soft) 22 days ago. Remains lightly raced for his age so he could still have more to offer.

20/1
C&D winner last summer. After just 2 days off, failed to come on his return when eighth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in February. Capable of being in the mix if ready to go after a 3-month break.

Thirteen runs since last win in 2023, but ran best race for her current yard when fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good, 12/1) 10 days ago. Races from 7 lb below her last winning mark so she's not discounted.

C&D winner. After 7 months off, not disgraced when sixth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good, 12/1) 17 days ago, no extra last ½f. Could fare better with her recent run behind her.

Making her first start since leaving Alexandra Dunn, offered little after 3 months off when last of 9 in handicap (80/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 20 days ago. Has plenty to prove.

Eleven runs since his last win at this C&D in 2023. Seventh of 13 in handicap back at this C&D (good, 11/1) 23 days ago, nearest finish having typically been slowly away. Needs everything to drop right.

In first-time blinkers, below form when ninth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 10/1) 27 days ago. Headgear quickly discarded, but needs to step up on what she's shown so far this year as she returns to turf.

Remains a maiden. Tried in cheekpieces after almost a year off, probably needed the run when last of 11 in handicap at this course (12.1f, good, 150/1) 10 days ago. Back down in trip with visor reapplied.

Forecasts

Langholm (9/4), Sunny Orange (9/2), Josiebond (7/1), Mr Strutter (15/2), Elladora (15/2), Musical Masquerade (15/2), Rum Runner (12/1), Miss Calculation (14/1), Stop On Red (20/1), Grand Style (100/1), Mr Gambino (150/1)

Verdict

MR STRUTTER hasn't been seen to best effect at this venue on his last 2 starts, keeping on having raced well off the pace on his latest outing, so he looks one to keep on the right side as he bids for a fifth C&D success. Langholm has been placed here 3 times this season and isn't taken lightly, while Musical Masquerade is another to note.

  1. Mr Strutter15/2
  2. Langholm9/4
  3. Musical Masquerade15/2
