Scored with something in hand at Newbury in July and shaped as if still in top form when fifth at Windsor (missed break) last time. Should be on the premises.

Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Newbury in June but wasn't in anything like the same form at the same track a fortnight ago. Could bounce back in first-time cheekpieces.

Temperamental sort who wasn't disgraced and finished with running left when fifth at Newbury at fortnight ago but is just as likely to back it up with a poor run.

Fairly useful maiden on Flat who landed juvenile event at Plumpton on hurdles debut last September. After 9 months off, shaped as if better for the run at Epsom last month. Well treated with cheekpieces back on, so he's worthy of consideration.

Losing run stretches back to 2022. Runner-up twice over hurdles for this yard in May and made an encouraging return to the Flat when fourth over C&D last time. Makes plenty of appeal under what is likely to be another positive ride.

Has had a very productive season to date and, while the handicapper might have caught up now, he was still in form when last seen at Hamilton a couple of months ago. Not a forlorn hope.

Fairly useful jumps winner, albeit below form when last seen at Cheltenham 21 months ago. Handicapper has taken a chance based on Flat exploits but it's hard to know how much ability he retains.

Winner at Chepstow in May. Creditable fourth of 6 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good) 49 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Emphatic success earlier in the season sticks in the mind and he's well worthy of interest.

Forecasts

Global Esteem (5/2), Gozo (3/1), Fast Steps (4/1), Continuance (4/1), Bass Player (11/1), Destinado (18/1), Saint Riquier (28/1), Blue Yonder (28/1)

Verdict

GLOBAL ESTEEM is on a fair mark in this sphere and ran with credit over C&D last time, so he could be hard to pass if he gets his own way out in front. The in-form Fast Steps is feared and Gozo should make his presence felt.
