9/1
Better on AW than turf with good second at Chelmsford in June. Fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (8/1) 14 days ago, making headway under pressure but couldn't quicken. Step up in trip could suit based on recent running pattern.

Won a 10f handicap at Chelmsford City two starts back, overcoming trouble in running. Fifth of 13 in 9f handicap at Wolverhampton (10/3) 21 days ago, leaving impression should have finished closer when not unduly punished. Remains of interest stepping up in trip.

7/4
Won twice over 10f at Sandown and Newmarket in May and June. Finished sixth of 18 in a deep handicap at Goodwood (33/1) 21 days ago, not settling fully after racing keenly. Stamina over this longer trip remains a question mark based on previous attempt but top trainer is giving him another try.

Won at this C&D in April and better form in defeat since, not best placed when seventh of 10 on handicap debut at Haydock (18/1) 83 days ago. Improvement required off current mark.

Sole win came in 10f handicap in April but has regressed since, didn't see the race out when sixth of 8 at Sandown (15/2) 27 days ago. Trip/surface are question marks.

50/1
C&D winner who was successful at Kempton with cheekpieces in February. Well held last 2 of 3 starts, though might have needed latest run following an 11-week absence. Headgear re-applied and back on a winning mark.

Verdict

FOX AVATAR overcame trouble to win at Chelmsford two starts back and wasn't fully extended when fifth at Wolverhampton recently. He remains of interest stepping up in trip. Best Adventure has won twice this season but faces stamina questions over this longer distance. Wadacre Gomez is better on the all-weather and could appreciate this stiffer test.
