Digital²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 80| D

11/1

Latest win at Hamilton in July. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, soft, 16/1) 21 days ago. Should give another good account.

Form: 023154

Seantrabh¹⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 77| BF| D

12/1

Not badly treated and, while he seemed to spurn a good opportunity at Catterick 105 days ago, it didn't all go his way. Not a forlorn hope.

Form: 316-444

(12)

Princess Karine³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Andrew Breslin⁽³⁾| T: B Smart| OR: 75| D

12/1

Ran out a wide-margin winner from the front at Pontefract in May but hasn't been able to fully reproduce that form since, so others are more persuasive.

Form: 439304

Paddy's Day⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Alex Jary⁽⁵⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 74| D

14/1

6/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm) 56 days ago. Had been in good orrder prior to that and back from a short break now, but others make more appeal.

Form: 627256

Count D'Orsay^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: P J McDonald| T: T D Easterby| OR: 74| D

33/1

Well-established sprinter who was back to form when scoring at Chester in July and backed it up to some extent when fifth at Hamilton three weeks ago. Not without hope.

Form: 624015

(17)

Fantasy Master^p⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: D Egan| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 72| C| D

4/1

Has dipped below his last winning mark and hasn't been disgraced in competitive races the last twice, fifth of 18 at York 5 days ago. Respected.

Form: 063735

(14)

Rebel Path^v¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 72

15/2

Successful on second of his 2 starts in France and has been finding his way for his current yard, albeit not really threatening at Sandown last time. Becoming well treated and worth monitoring in the betting.

Form: 363607

(7)

Hurt You Never²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Mia Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 72| C| D

33/1

Already hit the target 3 times this year, her most recent win coming at Newbury (5.2f, good) in July. Not in anything like the same form since, though, and looks firmly up against it.

Form: 314750

Strong Johnson¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: D Tudhope| T: P T Midgley| OR: 71| BF| D

5/1

Consistent sort who hasn't won for a while but arrives on the back of a string of consistent efforts, so one to be interested in.

Form: 550223

(9)

Cluedo²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Nicola Currie| T: H Candy| OR: 71| BF| D

12/1

Dual scorer last term who was right back to form when a strong-finishing second at Goodwood 3 weeks ago. This could ben teed up nicely for her, so makes plenty of appeal.

Form: 291-562

(8)

State Of Madness⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Raul Da Silva| T: D Shaw| OR: 70

80/1

Still unexposed and stayed on steadily when fifth at Wolverhampton on handicap debut. Others look better treated, however.

Form: 2675

(16)

South Parade²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Tommie Jakes⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 68

4/1

Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm, 4/1) in August. Shaped nicely when third at Newcastle since, faring best of those ridden prominently, so should be involved if there's not too much of a burn up here.

Form: 564313

Protest Rally^p¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁷⁾| T: L Bailey| OR: 66| D

16/1

Latest win at Musselburgh in August. Good second of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Musselburgh (5f, good) 16 days ago. Another solid showing is on the cards for all that stall 1 isn't ideal.

Form: 442122

(6)

Water Of Leith²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: Amie Waugh⁽³⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 66| D

16/1

Back to form when winning a ladies' race at Carlisle in August then shaped as if still in top form (didn't get a run) when ninth at Newcastle 22 days ago. Not one to rule out, albeit he'll need some luck.

Forecasts

Fantasy Master (4/1), South Parade (4/1), Strong Johnson (5/1), Rock Of England (6/1), Rebel Path (15/2), Digital (11/1), Cluedo (12/1), Seantrabh (12/1), Princess Karine (12/1), Paddy's Day (14/1), Water Of Leith (16/1), Protest Rally (16/1), Crypto Quest (20/1), Count D'Orsay (33/1), Hurt You Never (33/1), Lady Nunthorpe (33/1), State Of Madness (80/1)

CLUEDO is still unexposed in sprinting terms and got firmly back on track when runner-up at Goodwood last time, so she's worth a chance to take this wide-open sprint handicap. The in-form Strong Johnson should be thereabouts and South Parade is worthy of respect.
