Dubai Station^p⁶³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 77| C| D

9/4

Has moved yards several times and on a lengthy losing run. Made a big move into contention but also capitulated when ninth at Sandown 9 weeks ago. On the plus side, he's down in class off a career-low mark.

Pop Dancer^p⁹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A W Carroll| OR: 72| CD

9/1

C&D winner. Below form sixth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D. Lurking on a dangerous mark if refreshed by a break.

Form: 5-26976

Nelson Gay^p¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: S De Sousa| T: M Dods| OR: 69| CD

5/2

C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Took a step back in the right direction when fifth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good to firm, 9/1) 13 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not taken lightly.

Aces Wild¹⁸

2/1

3-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year. 4/1, didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at this C&D 18 days ago, stayed on to lead final strides. Must be respected despite 4 lb rise.

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Joey Haynes| T: S Dixon| OR: 61| BF

11/1

Not at best this term but can have a line put through latest run after being somewhat marooned on the outer wing. First run for yard after leaving Richard Fahey.

Forecasts

Aces Wild (2/1), Dubai Station (9/4), Nelson Gay (5/2), Ancient Times (7/1), Pop Dancer (9/1), Mondammej (10/1), Phoenix Beach (11/1)

It could be worth chancing DUBAI STATION, who returns from a short break off a career-low mark down in class. Aces Wild recorded his third C&D win 18 days ago and is the obvious threat, while Nelson Gay took a step back in the right direction at Thirsk.
