Mr Funky Monkey^v1⁵⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-0| J: Raul Da Silva| T: D Shaw| OR: 45

11/1

Well-backed 4/1, respectable fourth of 14 in minor event at this C&D when last seen 18 months ago. Visor on 1st time. Others more persuasive back from such an absence.

Form: 754/234-

Hard Solution^v¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-0| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 45| CD

33/1

C&D winner in March. Last of 13 in minor event at Newcastle (6f, 40/1) 16 days ago, losing all chance at start. Cannot be viewed be as a reliable betting proposition on account of his slow-starting tendencies.

Form: 765960

(5)

Evoluir³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 47

10/3

4/1, found run of good form coming to a halt when seventh of 9 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 34 days ago. Had been in good form prior (runner-up twice this summer) so he's worth considering if able to bounce back.

Form: 590-227

(7)

Sally Anne's Dream^h¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: S Whitaker| OR: 45

50/1

Hooded for 1st time, fared no better when ninth of 13 in minor event at Newcastle (6f, 125/1) 16 days ago. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 0-009

Forecasts

Evoluir (10/3), Due Date (4/1), Glory Call (5/1), Willowbank (5/1), Tickets (10/1), Mr Funky Monkey (11/1), Global Effort (11/1), Enchanted Night (14/1), Hard Solution (33/1), Sally Anne's Dream (50/1)

DUE DATE has already hit the target on 3 occasions this year and, provided he's able to put a lesser effort behind him, Charlie Wallis' 4-y-o is fancied to go in again at the expense of Evoluir, who has finished runner-up twice on the all-weather this summer and the return to sprinting should be in his favour. Glory Call can edge out Willowbank for third spot.
