Commander Crouch^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 67

4/1

Yet to score this term and only fourth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 12 days ago. Back up in trip but others are more persuasive.

Form: 667084

Strive^h³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Georgia Dobie⁽³⁾| T: D M Simcock| OR: 66

20/1

Got off the mark at Newcastle in February but hooded and failed to get home when seventh of 8 in handicap at Wetherby (10f, good to firm) 38 days ago. More is required.

Form: 8517

Saachi²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Kaiya Fraser⁽⁵⁾| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 64

11/4

Modest maiden. 7/1, posted a respectable third of 9 on his handicap bow at Yarmouth (8f, soft) 28 days ago. Up in trip so cant be discounted.

Form: 9-573

Hello Cotai^p²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: K T O'Neill| T: A West| OR: 64

11/4

Still a maiden but he is knocking on the door, third of 7 in handicap at Salisbury (8f, good) 25 days ago when nearest at the finish. Goes up in trip with cheekpieces back on. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 472423

Remarkable Flight³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: William Cox| T: C Hills| OR: 59| D

13/2

Opened her account at Brighton in May and did too much too soon when seventh of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 31 days ago. Needs considering.

Form: 60-8137

Charles Morin^p1³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Paddy Bradley| T: P Phelan| OR: 58

9/2

Winner at Lingfield in May but he looked a hard ride when a respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Not ruled out though with cheekpieces added.

Form: 88-9315

Forecasts

Hello Cotai (11/4), Saachi (11/4), Commander Crouch (4/1), Charles Morin (9/2), Muy Barato (6/1), Remarkable Flight (13/2), Strive (20/1)

HELLO COTAI has made the frame in all bar one of his starts in 2024 and is taken to gain a deserved breakthourgh victory here. In-form maiden Saachi could emerge as the main danger now his stamina is unlocked more ahead of Charles Morin and Remarkable Flight.
