3/1

Useful gelding. 8/13, won 9-runner seller at Leicester (7f, heavy) 21 days ago under this rider by 7½ lengths from Blufferonthebus (should have won a handicap there last week). Good chance back in a handicap on tapeta debut.

2/1

9/1, improved when winning 12-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 45 days ago. Makes tapeta debut (went close only other AW start at Kempton at 2 yrs). Career-high mark to overcome but she's hard to dismiss.

9/4

C&D winner. Latest win at Salisbury in July. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 6/1) 63 days ago, carrying head bit awkwardly. Could do better back here.

Serenity Dream³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 82

5/1

Won at Kempton at 2 yrs. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 33/1) 31 days ago, catching the eye with some late headway and not knocked about to do so. Interesting.

Form: 71-637

ALZAHIR ended his losing run in a seller at Leicester 3 weeks ago and looks set for more success now back handicapping from a fair mark. Zouzanna came in for a canny ride from Finley Marsh when scoring at Newmarket and has to be respected again in the hope she gets a sound pace. Serenity Dream caught the eye at Southwell and is worth a look.
