I'm Too Tired^p²⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 12-0| J: Lewis Stones| T: J Candlish| OR: 100| C

20/1

Breakthrough success in this sphere came here in January. Hasn't fired since but worthy of a market check back at this track after 6 months off.

Form: 23313P-

Foster's Fortune¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Rabbitt| T: C Grant| OR: 98| CD

11/8

Improved greatly for the switch into handicaps when winning in May and has run with credit on both starts since. Merits respect.

Form: 674-123

Love True²²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 11-9| J: Ben Smith⁽⁸⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 95

7/1

Fairly useful Flat winner at up to 13f in France. Improved on previous efforts in this sphere when third in a novice at Huntingdon 7 months ago and has the scope for better on handicap debut. Big player on comeback.

Form: 353-

Three Platoon^b,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: William Maggs| T: R Menzies| OR: 90

28/1

Out of form when last seen in this sphere and failed to beat a rival on the Flat recently, so needs blinkers to have a positive effect if he's to make his presence felt.

Form: 4347/P-7

Gieves^p¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Lewis Dobb⁽³⁾| T: H McMahon| OR: 88

100/1

Worcester hurdles winner last September and bettered his low-key chase debut third in a 2m Uttoxeter handicap in July. Poor efforts both starts since, though, leaving Ben Pauling prior to latest.

Form: 6-60300

Suitably Surprised⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: Charlie Maggs⁽³⁾| T: S England| OR: 74

6/5

Runner-up on her final outing in points and left previous efforts under Rules behind when second over C&D from out of the weights 9 days ago. Now 4 lb lower and is an obvious player.

Form: 069472

Solway Staree¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-2| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 68

66/1

Little form in bumper/over hurdles and looks firmly up against it again.

Form: 3P7P-00

Inoue^t1⁶⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Edward Austin| T: Paul Robson| OR: 67

16/1

Down the field in 2 bumpers for Stuart Crawford and yet to offer any encouragement over hurdles. Switches to handicaps with a tongue tie on.

Form: 06UP6

Forecasts

Suitably Surprised (6/5), Foster's Fortune (11/8), Love True (7/1), Inoue (16/1), I'm Too Tired (20/1), Three Platoon (28/1), Solway Staree (66/1), Gieves (100/1)

LOVE TRUE showed improvement when last seen 7 months ago and, based on her French Flat form, she could be well in here, so she's preferred to Suitably Surprised, who ran well over C&D (from out of the weights) last time and is now able to race from a lower mark. Foster's Fortune is another one to consider.
