Fact Or Fable^p⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Moore| OR: 54| CD

6/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in August. Respectable third of 6 in handicap at Brighton (8f, soft, 10/3) 5 days ago. Unlikely he will be far away, albeit without proving quite good enough from a win point of view.

Form: 125173

Dappled Light^b¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Ray Dawson| T: A Wintle| OR: 53| D

10/3

Latest win at Ffos Las in June. Blinkered for 1st time, good second of 7 in handicap (11/4) at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago, having run of race. Has good chance on form.

Form: 213432

Ivasecret^h1³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Charles Bishop| T: Ian Williams| OR: 53| D

12/1

Visored for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 12/1) 31 days ago. Now tried in a hood and, unless the new headgear sparks a return to form, this 6-y-o will probably come up short once more.

Form: 026460

Ravenglass^h,p³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Gina Mangan| T: A Wintle| OR: 53| D

8/1

Twenty six runs since last win in 2022. 5/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and he could have a say in the finish.

Havana Goldrush^b²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Ethan Jones⁽⁵⁾| T: J L Flint| OR: 53| CD

6/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in April. 6/1, 3 lengths sixth of 8 to Fact Or Fable in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 28 days ago. Merits consideration.

Bantry¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: William Carson| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 53

18/1

Unreliable individual. One win from 22 Flat runs. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good, 25/1) 19 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 156650

Olympic Quest²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: K T O'Neill| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 52

100/1

11 lengths last of 8 to Fact Or Fable in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 66/1) 28 days ago, missing break. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 618058

Eye Of The Water^p⁹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: L P Keniry| T: R Harris| OR: 52| CD

20/1

C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Seventh of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good, 11/1). Off 91 days. Would have a serious chance if on-song.

Form: 826877

Albus Anne^h1⁹³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: J C Fox| OR: 51| CD

11/2

C&D winner. Bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap (6/1) at Newbury (10f, good to firm). Off 93 days and hood on 1st time. Will be a threat if able to get back on track.

Form: 4124-37

(3)

Hawajes¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Jack Doughty⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 50

10/1

Won 9-runner handicap (11/2) at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago, bit in hand. Shade more needed up 3 lb but couldn't rule out all the same.

Form: 223761

Daany^h¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: J Tickle| OR: 49| D

10/1

7/1, won 9-runner handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Modest on the Flat, respectable on last Flat outing. Place possibilities.

Forecasts

Dappled Light (10/3), Albus Anne (11/2), Havana Goldrush (6/1), Fact Or Fable (6/1), Ravenglass (8/1), Hawajes (10/1), Daany (10/1), Ivasecret (12/1), Bantry (18/1), Eye Of The Water (20/1), Pending Appeal (33/1), Precious Lagatha (33/1), King of The Dance (40/1), Olympic Quest (100/1)

The vote goes to ALBUS ANNE, who scored over this C&D last autumn and she is fresher than most on what will be just her third start of the present campaign. The consistent Dappled Light went close at Chepstow recently and is next on the list ahead of Ravenglass. Cases can also be made for Havana Goldrush and Hawajes.
