Mysterious Love²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Tom Marquand| T: D Menuisier| OR: 85

14/1

Useful maiden winner who was back on track when sixth in handicap at York last time. Might not have a great deal in hand, however.

Naaey^p1¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 85

33/1

Persevered with by her top yard and duly got back on the up in taking fashion when landing 8-runner handicap at Doncaster in August. Sub-par effort at Haydock since, so needs the cheekpieces to have a positive effect.

Form: 2/1-7419

Loughville³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Rossa Ryan| T: A King| OR: 83

6/1

Has been going the right way this season, landing handicaps at Bath in April and Wetherby in June. Good efforts since and can get involved again.

Form: 131333

Miss Dolly Rocker¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jason Watson| T: R A Teal| OR: 79| D

11/1

Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (11/2) at Bath (11.6f, good to firm) 16 days ago, driven clear. Worthy of respect once more.

Form: 469551

Beeley^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: K Shoemark| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 84| D

10/1

Has some strong form to her name and didn't need to up her game to get off the mark in a novice at Ffos Las recently. Handicapper has taken no chances with her mark but there might be more to come.

Form: 2-25221

Blessed Honour⁸⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: W Buick| T: C Appleby| OR: 82

13/8

Boasts a progressive profile and showed a willing attitude to score in a 4-runner novice at Nottingham 85 days ago. Off since but likely to have developed further and should take the beating.

Form: 0-21

Billiegee²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: James Doyle| T: J Ferguson| OR: 81| CD

15/2

Improving filly who completed a double despite idling in a 3-runner C&D handicap 22 days ago. Can't be ruled out in the hat-trick bid.

Form: 14-2311

Loving Look³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Morrison| OR: 77| D

13/2

Lightly raced filly who took a stepo forward when opening her account in determined style at Kempton a month ago. Her mark demands a fair bit more, however.

Form: 32521

(3)

Alacrity²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: S De Sousa| T: A M Balding| OR: 73| BF

15/2

Latest win at Kempton in August. Second of 4 in handicap (5/6) at Southwell (11.1f) 21 days ago, needing stiffer test. In good order and this step up in trip should play to her strengths.

Form: 1-44812

Forecasts

Blessed Honour (13/8), Loughville (6/1), Typical Woman (6/1), Loving Look (13/2), Billiegee (15/2), Alacrity (15/2), Beeley (10/1), Miss Dolly Rocker (11/1), Mysterious Love (14/1), Naaey (33/1), Mrs Twig (33/1)

BLESSED HONOUR looked a good prospect when scoring at Nottingham last time and her opening mark seems reasonable, so she's marginally preferred to the hat-trick seeking Typical Woman. Billiegee is one of several others with feasible claims in a race that isn't short of depth.
