Mehmo^v¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 57| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Step back in right direction when fifth of 9 in handicap (7/1) at Nottingham (5f, soft) 14 days ago. Held form well on all-weather earlier this year and he's respected operating just 1 lb above last winning mark.

Lewis Barnes^b,t¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 55

7/2

Showed a good attitude to get off the mark at Kempton (6f) on penultimate start and not disgraced in stronger company when sixth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 18 days ago. No reason why he won't be competitive again back at the minimum trip.

Al Najada^h²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 55

40/1

Hooded for 1st time, first run since leaving K. R. Burke/after 16 months off understandably looked rusty when eighth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (80/1) 27 days ago. This should reveal more.

Form: 75950-8

Fortunate Star⁶^{(ex 5)}

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 50| CD

15/8

Displayed more encouraging signs from much-reduced mark and capitalised when dead-heating in 12-runner C&D handicap 6 days ago. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and he's one to consider.

Lochaber^b⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Harrison Shaw| T: S Dixon| OR: 53| D

20/1

One win from 21 Flat runs. Blinkered for 1st time, 2½ lengths seventh of 12 to Fortunate Star in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 6 days ago.

Brandy Station^p²⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 53| CD

20/1

4-time C&D winner. Latest win at Ffos Las in June. 28/1, shaped as if better for the run after 4 months off when fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 20 days ago. Fallen to a workable mark and his rider takes off a handy 7 lb here. Respected.

Form: 895-165

Stroxx^p²¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-0| J: S H James| T: L Bailey| OR: 49| D

40/1

One win from 51 Flat runs. Creditable third of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Chelmsford City (5f). Off 7 months. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive.

Captain Bentley^b1⁷⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 45

80/1

Eighth of 9 in minor event (66/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 75 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time now but he's hard to fancy.

Form: 537978

Belvoir Kitten^v²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: A J Farragher| T: D Shaw| OR: 45

25/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 50/1, fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 20 days ago, no extra late on. Not sure to be in same form here.

Forecasts

Fortunate Star (15/8), Happier (2/1), Lewis Barnes (7/2), Mehmo (12/1), Beneficiary (12/1), Brandy Station (20/1), Lochaber (20/1), Belvoir Kitten (25/1), Stroxx (40/1), Al Najada (40/1), Captain Bentley (80/1)

FORTUNATE STAR capitalised on his much-reduced mark when dead-heating in a C&D contest 6 days ago and he could well be up to following up under a penalty. Happier, Brandy Stationm with a recent run under his belt, and Lewis Barnes are others to consider.
