Just Hiss^p¹⁰

Age: 11| Weight: 10-2| J: Morgan Cole⁽³⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 65| C| D

12/1

Course winner. Sixth of 8 in handicap (28/1) at Chester (12.3f, soft) 10 days ago. Would have a serious chance if reproducing the form of his Nottingham near miss in July.

Dr Rio²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: Zak Wheatley| T: D Carroll| OR: 61| CD

11/2

C&D winner. Latest win here in July. Good second of 9 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 5/1) 24 days ago. Another bold show could be on the way.

Form: 443152

(10)

Etretat¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Archie Young⁽⁵⁾| T: C Johnston| OR: 65| BF

11/1

Winner at Wolverhampton in July. 10/3, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 19 days ago, faring best of those held up. 0-10 on turf and likely to find one or two too good once again.

Form: 221464

Another Beautiful^p1,t⁶³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Elle-May Croot⁽⁵⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 60

16/1

Creditable seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 14/1) 63 days ago. Tongue strap back on and sports first-time cheekpieces. Needs to raise her game.

Form: 40-5857

(6)

Olympicus^h²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Frederick Larson| T: M Appleby| OR: 60| BF| D

5/1

3/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 24 days ago, doing too much too soon. Back up in trip and while he would be a big player if bouncing back to something like his best, others make more appeal on recent evidence.

Form: 50-8095

(4)

Love Yours⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Rhys Elliott⁽⁵⁾| T: G Tutty| OR: 62| CD

13/2

C&D winner in July. 11/1, ninth of 10 in handicap back here (good to firm) 6 days ago. Others make more appeal.

Form: 447199

Panama City^h,t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Harry Burns| T: I W McInnes| OR: 57| C

25/1

Course winner. Last of 12 in handicap (22/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 25 days ago, hampered. Back up in trip and he needs to get back on track.

Form: 416950

(11)

Regency Boy^b⁷⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Joe Leavy| T: Steph Hollinshead| OR: 55

11/1

9/2 and visored for 1st time, bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 70 days ago. Blinkers back on and he looks vulnerable for win purposes.

Form: 860-426

(9)

Jez Bomb^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: O McSweeney| T: S England| OR: 59

7/2

9/4, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 15 days ago. Nudged up just 1 lb and he's a strong candidate.

Form: 231241

(1)

Dandy's Angel^p⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Mark Winn| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 53| CD

5/1

Five-time C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 6 days ago. Place possibilities.

Form: 472435

(2)

Beguiling^p1,t1⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Amie Waugh| T: T D Easterby| OR: 57

50/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 44 days ago. Tongue strap and cheekpieces on 1st time. Best to look elsewhere.

Form: 6-4697

Forecasts

Jez Bomb (7/2), Dandy's Angel (5/1), Olympicus (5/1), Dr Rio (11/2), Love Yours (13/2), Etretat (11/1), Regency Boy (11/1), Just Hiss (12/1), Another Beautiful (16/1), Panama City (25/1), Beguiling (50/1)

Raised just 1 lb for his recent success on the all-weather, JEZ BOMB looks the way to go. He is equally effective on turf, performing with credit on both previous visits here, and his credentials are rock-solid. An on-song Just Hiss would have a real chance off this mark, while the in-form Dr Rio is also likely to be in the thick of things.
