At A Pinch^h,p⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-4| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: T Lawes| OR: 70| CD

40/1

C&D winner. 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) 67 days ago. Looks well in on pick of form but she does have a bit to prove at present.

Form: 22210/7-

Pink Lily²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 68

28/1

Latest win at Goodwood in June. 25/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Gold Aura^h⁴⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Jack Jones| OR: 67

4/1

Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 5/2, last of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) 46 days ago. Was knocking on the door prior to that and she's effective on this polytrack. One to consider.

Maritime Lady^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: S De Sousa| T: James Owen| OR: 69

6/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 7-runner handicap (11/4) at Leicester (11.8f, good to firm) 19 days ago, very much having run of race. More on her plate up 4 lb and may well face competition for the lead.

Form: 234361

Alacrity³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: A M Balding| OR: 68| BF

3/1

4/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm) 38 days ago. Needs to get back on track but that is possible now that she returns to the AW off a sliding mark.

Form: 351-448

Carpathian²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: J Ferguson| OR: 68

9/2

7/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good to soft) 25 days ago, finishing ½-length behind the runner-up Measured Moments and now 1 lb better off with that rival. Place possibilities.

Form: 5-36253

Cakewalk²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Harry Davies| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 67| BF

17/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm, 16/5) 21 days ago. Will need to take a seizeable step forward if she's to play a part in the finish here.

Form: 5878

Umbria⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽³⁾| T: E Walker| OR: 66

5/1

Twice-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Won 13-runner novice at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 9/1) 43 days ago, pushed out. Unexposed handicap debutante from a respected yard but this is significantly tougher.

Form: 91

Tambourine Dream^h¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Coakley| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 64

16/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 14 days ago. That was too bad to be true and she's probably worth another chance on the strength of her handicap debut second over a mile here on penultimate start. Now upped in trip and hood refitted.

Form: 5-5928

(7)

Autumn's Breeze²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Finley Marsh| T: G & J Moore| OR: 62

40/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, seventh of 11 in novice at this course (12f) 27 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to be seen in a better light now handicapping but it's probably best to look elsewhere on this occasion.

Form: 877

Forecasts

Alacrity (3/1), Gold Aura (4/1), Carpathian (9/2), Umbria (5/1), Maritime Lady (6/1), Measured Moments (13/2), Cakewalk (17/2), Bittalemon (10/1), Tambourine Dream (16/1), Pink Lily (28/1), Autumn's Breeze (40/1), At A Pinch (40/1)

GOLD AURA failed to fire on her latest start but she was knocking on the door pretty firmly prior to that and this could be the day when she belatedly sheds her maiden tag. Second choice is Tambourine Dream, who bumped into a bang in-form rival on her handicap bow here in July (subsequent run was too bad to be true) and she shapes as though this stiffer test will be in her favour. Carpathian is closely matched with Measured Moments on recent Leicester form and she is third on the list.
