Miss Brazen²²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 72| CD

3/1

C&D winner who is operating below last winning mark and she was far from disgraced having raced solo on the far side when sixth of 13 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 22 days ago. One to bear in mind dropped in class.

Form: 30-5036

Bella Kopella^t¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 72| CD

13/2

Latest win over C&D in May. Respectable efforts next 2 starts prior to a below-par display when fifteenth of 18 in handicap at York (6f, good to soft) 17 days ago, albeit seemingly done no favours by the draw. Better showing anticipated.

Form: 381440

Majeski Man³³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 69| CD

13/2

C&D winner who was returning from 4 months off when good second of 7 in handicap (9/2) at Leicester (5f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Can race off same mark here and holds strong claims.

Form: 22-9892

Soul Seeker^p,t³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Mark Winn⁽³⁾| T: D O'Meara| OR: 68| CD

7/4

Tasted success 3 times during 2023 and he lines up here having posted best effort of the present campaign when second of 18 in handicap (8/1) at York (5f, good to firm) 3 days ago. Looks a big player from plum draw turned out quickly.

Form: 004002

Doctor Vuby⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 70

16/1

Ran well on first 2 starts this year but, having had excuses at Epsom next time, below form when last of 5 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good, 15/2) 45 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 24-2205

(2)

Glory Hyde¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 66| D

10/1

Winner at Thirsk in June. 5/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 13 days ago. Present mark demands that bit more.

Form: 724127

Secret Command²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Murtagh| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 64| D

10/1

Latest win at Catterick in June. 6/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good) 29 days ago, weakening final 1f. Bounce back rates distinctly possible judged on balance of this season's efforts.

Form: 16-2157

Forecasts

Soul Seeker (7/4), Miss Brazen (3/1), Bella Kopella (13/2), Majeski Man (13/2), Glory Hyde (10/1), Secret Command (10/1), Doctor Vuby (16/1)

MAJESKI MAN shaped well by the finish returning from 4 months off when runner-up at Leicester in June and, with that effort likely to have blown the cobwebs away, he looks to hold good claims of going one place better. Soul Seeker, following his excellent second at York on Saturday and Miss Brazen who returns to the scene of her last success head up the dangers.
