Dawn Of Liberation⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 81| D

2/1

Third win of 2025 in 20-runner handicap at York in June. Raised 9 ln after that but a trio of placed efforts in recent weeks confirm that he remains in excellent order.

Love Talk⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: S H James| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 85

5/2

Won twice as a 2-y-o and seemed to show much-improved form when 8¾ lengths third of 4 to Estrange in Group 2 Lancashire Oaks at Haydock (11.8f, good) 43 days ago. She's very fairly treated back in a handicap if that run is taken at face value.

Form: 47-3943

Raulin²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 81| CD

6/5

Off the mark on handicap debut at Redcar (10f) in May and doubled tally from the front over C&D 3 weeks ago, better than ever when ½ length too strong for Dawn of Liberation. Shouldn't be much between them again.

Form: 513441

Forecasts

Raulin (6/5), Dawn Of Liberation (2/1), Love Talk (5/2)

A case can be made for all 3, but RAULIN was ½ length too good for Dawn of Liberation off level-weights in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago and from the same terms, he may well come out on top again. If Love Talk's last run is taken literally, she's a major threat to the pair.
