Imperial Quarter^h³³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: James Doyle| T: R Varian| OR: 92

9/1

Off the mark at the second attempt at Carlisle and much improved form when fourth of 6 in listed race at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) final outing last year. After 9 months off, looked rusty at Newcastle in June, so she could fare better making her handicap bow.

Form: 514-0

Secret Solace^p1²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Jim Crowley| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 90

20/1

Remains lightly raced, shaping well when third in listed race at this C&D (good to firm) only start at 3yrs. Run best excused when well held at Salisbury 25 days ago, racing alone on far rail in the straight. Cheekpieces now reached for.

Form: 314/3-70

Al Anoud³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 89| D

7/2

Successful both starts at 3yrs and ran well after 8 months off when second on handicap debut at Windsor (10f, good to firm) in May. Seemed unsuited by longer trip at Pontefract (12f) last time, so she's not discounted but widest draw not ideal.

Form: 11-23

Wisper³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: K Shoemark| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 86| D

10/1

Has made the frame in 3 of her 4 starts this season, soon getting back to form when runner-up at Windsor (10f, good to firm) at the beginning of the month, clear of the rest. Up in grade but can give another good account.

Form: 85-2472

Roarin' Success¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 85

13/2

Good efforts when runner-up in her first 2 races this season and bounced back from a lesser effort at Royal Ascot when 1½ lengths second of 7 to Elladonna at Salisbury (9.9f, good) 18 days ago. More needed back up in grade.

Form: 35-2202

Power Of Destiny³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 87| D

9/4

Confirmed promise of debut when winning at Haydock in June and improved further when second of 4 in novice at Nottingham (10.2f, good to firm) 3 weeks later. Major player with better still to come as she goes handicapping.

Form: 312

Warda Jamila¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 85| BF| D

8/1

Made a winning handicap debut at Ascot (10f) in May and shaped better than result in King George V Stakes at the Royal Meeting (12f, firm), stretched by the longer trip. Unsuited by way the race developed at Salisbury last time, so she's one to note.

Form: 1-61406

True Wisdom⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 83| BF

9/1

Maiden victory at Newmarket was a standout effort at 2yrs but she got back on track after 6 months off when second of 6 on handicap debut at Kempton (11f) in April. However, well below form at this course (12f, good) the following month.

Form: 014-27

(3)

Candle Of Dubai¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Vincent C Y Ho| T: C Johnston| OR: 79| D

22/1

Promising start to career when runner-up first 2 races and responded well to an attacking ride when opening her account in a Chelmsford novice (10f) in June. Has gone backwards from that effort sent handicapping last 2 starts, though.

Power Of Destiny (9/4), Al Anoud (7/2), Elladonna (4/1), Roarin' Success (13/2), Warda Jamila (8/1), Imperial Quarter (9/1), True Wisdom (9/1), Wisper (10/1), There's The Door (16/1), Secret Solace (20/1), Mysterious Love (20/1), Candle Of Dubai (22/1)

POWER OF DESTINY shaped well when conceding 7 lb to the winner at Nottingham on her latest outing, so she is taken to continue her progress and resume winning ways making her handicap debut. Heading the list of dangers is Elladonna, who is respected in her hat-trick bid, while Warda Jamila has had excuses on her last 2 starts and remains one to be interested in.
