14/1

Prolific in 2023 and off the mark for this campaign in 9-runner handicap at Kempton (16f) 16 days ago by length from Enthrallment, always holding on. Looks well weighted back on turf.

9/2

The Crafty Mole²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 73

5/2

4 wins from 6 runs this year. 2/5, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Thirsk (14f, good) 22 days ago, pushed out. Highly progressive as a stayer and this distance could bring more out of him.

Form: 411311

(3)

Warmonger¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Marco Ghiani| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 67| D

9/4

Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (8/11) at Lingfield (16.3f, good to soft) 15 days ago, pushed out. Likely has even more to offer now up and running.

Form: 00-4231

Forecasts

Warmonger (9/4), The Crafty Mole (5/2), Road To Wembley (9/2), Surrey Belle (5/1), Robusto (14/1), Ragosina (20/1), Kitty Foyle (28/1), Wilderness (33/1), Simiyann (50/1), State Of Bliss (80/1)

THE CRAFTY MOLE is yet to meet with defeat as a stayer and is worth a chance to improve again and add a fifth success of the campaign. The penalised Surrey Belle is an obvious player after a wide-margin success at Kempton and Warmonger is one to consider.
