(1)

Willolarupi²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: D Carroll| OR: 70| D

5/1

Resumed winning ways from a 4 lb lower mark at Redcar (6f) and shaped as if still in good form on 2 of his 3 starts since, possibly unsuited by the longer trip when sixth of 10 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good) 21 days ago. Claims from plum draw back at 5f.

Form: 621266

(8)

Sergeant Mayer^p²⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Alex Jary⁽⁵⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 69| D

9/1

Won twice over 5f in spring and ran respectably all 4 starts since, fifth of 9 in handicap (7/1) at Doncaster (5.6f, good to firm) 27 days ago, making his challenge on the far flank. No reason why he won't give his running again.

Form: 112235

(5)

Another Baar^p,t¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: O McSweeney⁽³⁾| T: A Keatley| OR: 67| D

8/1

Arrives on a losing run but he posted easily his best effort of the campaign in a refitted tongue tie when second at Ayr (6f) on penultimate start. Better than distance beaten suggests from wide draw when ninth of 19 in handicap at York (5f) 11 days ago. Not one to write off.

Form: 9-36029

(6)

Betweenthesticks^p¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 66| D

33/1

Gained a second success of the season at Catterick (5f) in May but not scaled same heights in trio of subsequent starts, last of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 941678

(3)

Danzart¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-8| J: Jason Hart| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 64

18/1

Confirmed the promise of his reappearance run when resuming winning ways at Doncaster (7f) in April. Hasn't matched that form in 3 starts back at that venue though, and another needing to get back on track now returned to the minimum trip.

Form: 0-61408

(2)

Profiteer¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 63| BF| CD

13/8

Back-to-back winner of heavy ground C&D handicaps last autumn and not shaping up at all badly of late, finishing a creditable second behind a well-treated rival over 6f here 19 days ago. Clearly on a workable mark and he's one to consider.

Form: 542652

(7)

Rock Of England^v⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR: 62

14/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 16/1, last of 12 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to firm) in June, folding. Now operating from a career-low mark if a subsequent 7-week break has had a positive effect and interesting if the market spoke in his favour.

Form: 590440

(4)

Solar Biricz⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 61| D

20/1

Latest win at Doncaster in June. 5/2, third of 5 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 43 days ago, no extra final 1f. Not out of things now taking on his elders for the first time.

Form: 9-03613

(9)

Missmimi¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Joanna Mason| T: Miss T Jackson| OR: 54| BF| CD

7/2

Consistent mare who was well served by coming off a strong gallop when doubling her career tally over C&D on penultimate start. Backed that up with a good second of 5 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good) 14 days ago. Likelihood of a strong pace should see her to good effect again.

Form: 127-212

Forecasts

Profiteer (13/8), Missmimi (7/2), Willolarupi (5/1), Another Baar (8/1), Sergeant Mayer (9/1), Rock Of England (14/1), Danzart (18/1), Solar Biricz (20/1), Betweenthesticks (33/1)

Dual C&D winner PROFITEER turned in his best effort of the season when runner-up behind a well-treated sort over further here 19 days ago and, clearly on a workable mark himself, he's fancied to confirm the promise of that run and come out on top from a handy draw. The likelihood of a strong pace will suit Missmimi and she's feared along with Willolarupi. The sole 3-y-o in the line-up Solar Biricz isn't dismissed lightly, either.
