Basharat³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 49| D

22/1

6f winner at 3 yrs but seemingly hard to train and well held since, including after 26 months off when ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 37 days ago. This should reveal more but percentage call is to look elsewhere.

Form: 49100/9

Gatwick Kitten^t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: P J McDonald| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 50| D

7/2

It's now eleven runs since last win in 2023 but best effort for a while when third of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good) 23 days ago, never nearer. A repeat gives him claims in an ordinary affair.

Form: 55-5053

(5)

Hard Solution^v⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 43| D

14/1

Had been operating below best in recent months but better efforts of late, noted doing some good late work when third of 11 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 6 days ago, never nearer. Each-way possibilities again.

Form: 596043

(9)

Chillout Charlie⁶³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Harrison Shaw| T: N Tinkler| OR: 48

10/1

Modest gelding. Below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm, 25/1) 63 days ago, ridden over 2f out and fading. Needs to pull out a little more.

Form: 66-7976

(3)

Classy Hopes^t¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: O J Orr| T: J Butler| OR: 46

66/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 9 in minor event at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 10 days ago, ridden halfway and fading. Only market support would make him of interest given what he's showed to date.

Form: 8-859

(7)

Electrified^b1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: K P De Foy| OR: 50

13/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 13/2) 17 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time and he's one to consider.

Form: 686-055

Ifonlytheycudtalk^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 46

10/3

Remains a maiden after 14 starts but he ran creditably despite a late stumble when third of 12 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 10/1) 6 days ago. Not out of things at this level.

Form: 720263

Sassy Soprano^h²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: Mrs A Duffield| OR: 46

7/2

Went close to breaking her duck when third at Wolverhampton (6.1f) in July, headed only late on. Not in quite the same form despite filling same position in 11-runner C&D event 3 weeks ago but she holds claims in an open affair.

Form: 464733

(8)

She'sashambles¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Rowan Scott| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 48

8/1

Bounced back to form when third of 11 in handicap (28/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 12 days ago. However made hard work of things then and needs to prove she can back that up returned to turf here.

Form: 6-00383

Forecasts

Ifonlytheycudtalk (10/3), Gatwick Kitten (7/2), Sassy Soprano (7/2), Electrified (13/2), She'sashambles (8/1), Chillout Charlie (10/1), Peachey Carnehan (12/1), Hard Solution (14/1), Basharat (22/1), Classy Hopes (66/1)

GATWICK KITTEN ran better than previously this year when third over this trip at Yarmouth 23 days ago and, returned to classified company, he earns the vote to build on that effort and come out on top. Electrified, equipped with first-time blinkers, and Sassy Soprano are others to consider.
