Below form sixth of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Haydock (6f, heavy) 20 days ago. One to have in mind dropping significantly in grade.

Alfa Whiteburd⁸^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: William Pyle⁽³⁾| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 67| D

11/4

Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 9/2) 8 days ago, keeping on well. Firmly on the up and looks worth a chance to defy a penalty and complete the hat-trick.

Form: 48-4211

Harry's Halo^v1,t¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 71| D

3/1

Latest win at Windsor in September. Respectable third of 10 in handicap (11/4) at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 11 days ago, not clear run. Visor on 1st time. Likely to be thereabouts again.

Form: 422133

18/1

14/1 and hooded for 1st time, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Leicester (6f, soft) 38 days ago. Others more persuasive.

33/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Catterick in May. Ninth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 33/1) 31 days ago, merely closing up late. Plenty to prove.

12/1

9/2

C&D winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Ripon in June. 7/2, did enough to suggest she's still in form when fourth of 9 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Not discounted.

18/1

18/1

18/1

33/1

Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Eighth of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Pontefract (5f, heavy) 11 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Not easy to make a case for.

Forecasts

Alfa Whiteburd (11/4), Harry's Halo (3/1), Run This Way (9/2), Showhound (11/2), Cold Stare (17/2), Dazy Mazy (12/1), John Kirkup (14/1), Gemini Star (18/1), Happier (18/1), Agnes Grey (18/1), Havana Pursuit (18/1), Without Flaw (33/1), Hail Sezer (33/1), Back Before Dark (66/1)

ALFA WHITEBURD is comfortably the most progressive in this field and had something to spare when scoring at Southwell recently, so he makes most appeal under a penalty. Cold Stare is worthy of consideration coming down in grade., and Harry's Halo should be thereabouts.
