5/1

Back to winning ways at Dundalk in July on final start for Edward Lynam. Returned to a similar level when second of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Newcastle (6f) 12 days ago and he can give another good account.

Eleven runs since last win in 2023 but showed better signs when fourth of 21 at York in July. Lesser effort when last of 6 in handicap at Ripon (6f, firm, 11/2) 48 days ago, though he's not written off from his current mark.

9/1

Gained a first handicap success at Carlisle in June. Well below that level both subsequent outings, though, tenth of 15 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good, 12/1) 43 days ago. Others more persuasive.

10/3

Record a first win of the year at Ayr in August. Has continued in good heart since, third of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm, 13/2) 8 days ago. Could be in the mix once more.

9/2

Ended long losing run at Carlisle on her first start of the month and ran well when second of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm, 15/8) a week ago. Not taken lightly on only fifth start for current yard.

Forecasts

Ramon Di Loria (10/3), Inanna (9/2), Hierarchy (5/1), Rough Diamond (5/1), Impressor (15/2), Belsito (9/1), Bay Breeze (10/1), Woobay (12/1), Kats Bob (16/1), Secret Road (20/1)

HIERARCHY shaped well in a change of headgear when third at Salisbury 9 days ago, coming from much further back than the front pair, so he could be ready to take advantage of his career-low mark. He can see off the challenge of Impressor, who has returrned to form when runner-up on his last 2 starts, while Inanna is also one to note.
