15/2

Three C&D wins including in this race last year but finished last of 8 in handicap at Newbury (40/1) 27 days ago when racing off the pace. Better expected back at this track eased in grade.

14/1

Won twice on AW at Wolverhampton in April with headgear applied. Finished seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (18/1) 28 days ago, not showing same form under change of tactics.

Init Together¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Matthew Slater⁽⁷⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 58| D

17/2

Dual-purpose performer who won a hurdle race at Worcester in June. Fifth of 7 over timber at Market Rasen (8/1) 18 days ago, seeming to find soft conditions all too much. Returns to the Flat on a workable mark.

Orchestral Wave^p,t⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Josephine Gordon| T: Jack Morland| OR: 59| BF| D

8/11

Gained breakthrough at Leicester last month and excellent runner-up efforts either side of that, most recently at Bath (evens) 5 days ago, giving best late on to a course specialist. Continues to thrive for current connections and holds strong claims.

Form: 873212

Manton Road²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Saffie Osborne| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 57

66/1

All 4 wins on AW but form on turf poor in comparison. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Epsom (40/1) 20 days ago and drying ground would be against him.

Parisian Phoenix¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 56

10/1

Hinted at not being straightforward in earlier starts but made more impact when 4th of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (11/1) 15 days ago. Remains lightly raced and could have more to offer on this second handicap start.

Form: 0544

(3)

Gretna Dreams²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: S C Williams| OR: 56

5/1

Won a handicap last September but has been inconsistent since. Fourth of 8 in a 10f handicap at Epsom (14/1) 27 days ago for new connections, racing freely before rallying in the final furlong. Can build on that, which makes her dangerous.

Form: 145-474

Forecasts

Orchestral Wave (8/11), Typeface (7/2), Gretna Dreams (5/1), Chourmo (15/2), Init Together (17/2), Parisian Phoenix (10/1), Danehill Star (14/1), Manton Road (66/1)

ORCHESTRAL WAVE continues to thrive for current connections, winning at Leicester before finishing a good second at Bath recently. He can regain the winning thread, possibly at the chief expense of Gretna Dreams, who may well build on an improved effort at Epsom starting out for Stuart Williams.
