40/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 12 in handicap (13/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 23 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and he's opposable.

C&D winner. Twenty runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 23 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Was knocking on the door earlier this year and capable of a bold show off this mark.

Barleybrown²⁹

5/1

Unreliable individual. C&D winner. 13/2, eighth of 12 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, soft) 29 days ago, slowly away. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

18/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in April. Below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good, 12/1) 26 days ago. One or two of these make more appeal.

Struck Gold^b,t¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: J Butler| OR: 49| D

22/1

Unreliable type. Creditable second of 14 in minor event (11/1) at Yarmouth (8f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Tongue strap back on and given a chance by the handicapper. Place possibilities.

Copper Mountain^t¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 49| D

22/1

Tenth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good, 15/2) 14 days ago. Back down in trip and likely she will be seen in a better light back on the AW, albeit without being quite good enough.

Form: 435230

Forecasts

South Dakota Sioux (9/2), Tees George (5/1), Flying Panther (5/1), Barleybrown (5/1), Specialist View (13/2), Balqaa (11/1), Stoic Syd (14/1), Masham Moor (18/1), Easter Island (20/1), Struck Gold (22/1), Copper Mountain (22/1), Martin's Brig (33/1), Glory Call (40/1), Highland Loch (100/1)

Several to consider, with STOIC SYD marginally preferred having performed with credit following a three-month break upped to 9.5f at Wolverhampton. This drop back in trip will be in his favour and he's now 1 lb lower in the weights. Specialist View failed to make an impact on turf last time but is feared now returned to the AW, while Tees George is third choice ahead of Balqaa.
