Completed a 5f hat-trick when seeing off 8 rivals at Carlisle at the end of May. Has found life tougher up further in the weights since, down the field at Newmarket last time. Others preferred.

Successful twice at Hamilton in August and ran well there on penultimate outing. Poorly drawn when down the field at York last time and shouldn't be written off.

17/2
C&D winner. Latest win at Hamilton in September. 16/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, heavy) 2 days ago. Not the most consistent but booking of Tom Marquand looks significant.

Three 6f wins this year, including on heavy. Showed he's still very much at the top of his game when second of 12 at York a week ago and another bold showing is on the cards.

9/2
Has become well handicapped, goes well in testing ground, and has been shaping up well of late, doing well from a poor draw at Redcar last time. Looks a big player.

20/1
C&D winner who got back on scoreboard when landing 12-runner handicap at Chester (5.5f, soft) in September. Not in the same form at Ripon subsequently but that race may have come too soon.

7/1
Resumed from five months off with a career best in landing a 13-runner C&D handicap (5f, good) in June and has remained in top form since, having the draw as an excuse at Chester last time. Respected.

Forecasts

Trilby (1/1), Seantrabh (9/2), Secret Mistral (7/1), Never Dark (17/2), Moonstone Boy (10/1), Angel Shared (18/1), Our Absent Friends (18/1), Count D'Orsay (20/1)

Verdict

SEANTRABH did well to finish third from an unfavourable draw at Redcar last time and, from a lenient mark, he's worth siding with. Trilby has been holding his form admirably this season and ran with credit in a more competitive race than this at York a week ago, so he's regarded as a big danger, while Secret Mistral isn't without hope either.
