Alan De Banks⁶⁶

5/4

Soldier of Fortune gelding who made a winning debut in a Newton Abbot bumper in June. Should be competitive under a penalty.

Form: 1

Anjandansar

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽³⁾| T: J Coulson

150/1

Leading Light gelding. Brother to bumper winner/fair hurdler Leading Theatre. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 3¼m) Minella For Steak. Stable 0-14 in bumpers in the last 5 seasons. A watching brief is advised.

Form:

Azaris

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: N de Boinville| T: N J Henderson

5/1

Panis gelding. Brother to useful winner up to 1m Alistair and closely related to a winner. Represents a top stable with a strong bumper record. Market confidence would look significant.

Form:

Boy From Brazil²⁷⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

11/1

Out of a bumper winner but beaten a long way in 2 runs last autumn.

Form: 50-

Everybodydancenow⁶¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Finn Lambert⁽³⁾| T: N & W Twiston-Davies

40/1

Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart hurdler Colin's Sister. No immediate encouragement when eighth on C&D debut in June but may have learned from that.

Form: 8

Kingston Bresil⁴⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-13| J: Mrs Izzie Hill⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs L Hill

80/1

11/1, shaped better than a well-held sixth of 8 on Stratford debut suggests, weakening after racing freely. Can do better if learning to settle down.

Form: 26

Gibraltar Le Bleu

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Brendan Powell| T: D Donovan

50/1

Ask mare. Dam unraced out of useful hurdler (winner up to 3m) Red Square Lady. Best watched unless the betting hints otherwise.

Form:

O'Malley⁹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: G Sheehan| T: Kieran Burke

11/1

Looked to be struggling when brought down on home turn on Taunton debut in March but showed something to work on when fifth at Newton Abbot 8 weeks later. Still looked inexperienced on that occasion so may be capable of better again.

Form: B-5

Rockola Vogue⁷⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 10-9| J: Nick Slatter⁽³⁾| T: D Killahena & G McPherson

9/2

Jukebox Jury mare who was third in a pair of Southwell bumpers at the start of the summer. Another prominent showing is on the cards.

Form: 33

Remember Moi⁵⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: Miss Olive Nicholls⁽⁷⁾| T: G NichollsWS

11/2

Well behind Rockola Vogue on her Southwell debut but left that form well behind when fourth over C&D 3 weeks later. Unlikely to be too far away.

Form: 83

Sweet Hortense²⁴⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-6| J: J M Quinlan| T: Martin Dunne

100/1

50/1 when well held on Newcastle debut for Danny Brooke last December. Can only be watched on return for new trainer.

Form: 9-

Forecasts

Alan De Banks (5/4), Rockola Vogue (9/2), Azaris (5/1), Remember Moi (11/2), O'Malley (11/1), Boy From Brazil (11/1), Everybodydancenow (40/1), Gibraltar Le Bleu (50/1), Kingston Bresil (80/1), Sweet Hortense (100/1), Anjandansar (150/1)

The suggestion is Nicky Henderson newcomer AZARIS, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Rockola Vogue and Remember Moi ran to a fair level when placed earlier in the summer and may provide a bigger threat than penalised previous winner Alan de Banks
