Sovereign Knight^p,t⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R Menzies| OR: 69| D

12/1

Finished last of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (40/1) 53 days ago, weakening quickly after leading. Cheekpieces back on and returns to AW on first run for new trainer.

Form: 157-608

Daytona Lady^p¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 68| CD

13/2

Confirmed return to form when finishing second of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (13/2) 12 days ago despite tardy start. Remains a slightly risky betting proposition given her quirks.

Form: 783732

Minnesota Lad²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Jordan Nason⁽³⁾| T: I Furtado| OR: 67| BF| D

17/2

Ran creditably when third at Pontefract in June but form has tailed off, including when eighth of 9 as 5/2 favourite at Southwell (AW) 22 days ago. Bounce back required.

Form: 236548

Glory Hyde⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Joanna Mason| T: Roger Fell| OR: 66| D

9/4

Won a 6f handicap at Catterick in May and just about as good as ever when second of 10 in a 5.8f handicap at Carlisle (4/1) 7 days ago, just denied by an improving 3-y-o after leading and keeping on. Should be very competitive on this return to AW.

Form: 415842

Havana Sky^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 65| CD

11/4

Six-time winner last season who shaped well when fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford wearing first-time cheekpieces (9/2) 12 days ago, unlucky not to finish closer having been denied a run. Below last successful mark and likely to be winning again soon.

Bill Plumb^t⁴⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: P S McEntee| OR: 65| CD

11/2

Inconsistent on AW, sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (11/2) 47 days ago, starting better than has been the case but turning in just a respectable effort.

Form: 626256

Candy Warhol^p,t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Charlie Bennett| T: S Dixon| OR: 63| CD

22/1

Seventh of 11 in handicap at Brighton (10/1) 13 days ago, racing freely and weakening badly. Returns to track where all three career wins have been achieved but others arrive in better order.

Form: 223167

Evocative Spark^p³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: Sean Kirrane| T: J Riches| OR: 62| CD

12/1

Poor form earlier this year before finishing third of 10 in 7f handicap at Beverley (8/1) 35 days ago. That was more like it after 6 months off and cheekpieces back on here.

Form: 50-9893

Won twice at Carlisle (6f) last summer before finishing fourth of 13 in a handicap (7/1) at the same course seeking a hat-trick. Off the track since and first-time hood applied.

Forecasts

Glory Hyde (9/4), Havana Sky (11/4), Lequinto (9/2), Bill Plumb (11/2), Daytona Lady (13/2), Minnesota Lad (17/2), Muscika (10/1), Sovereign Knight (12/1), Evocative Spark (12/1), Dark Side Prince (20/1), Candy Warhol (22/1), Edgewater Drive (33/1), Watermelon Sugar (66/1)

HAVANA SKY has been knocking on the door recently, showing improved form back on the AW and unlucky not to finish closer at Chelmsford when denied a run. Now on a good mark, he can add to his haul from last season. Glory Hyde was right at the top of her game last time so is on the shortlist, while Lequinto can bounce back if taking up this engagement.
