Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Mr Jude Fernandes⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 67| BF| CD

Alazwar^b²⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Miss Brodie Hampson| T: A Watson| OR: 66| D

17/2

Pride Of Nepal^b,t²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Miss S L Bowen| T: A W Carroll| OR: 62| CD

4/1

Winner of this race under Sarah Bowen last season. The pair have combined for some creditable in-frame efforts in handicaps in recent months and he ought make a bold bid in this race again.

Form: 425224

Joycean Way^b¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 10-5| J: Mr Ben Pollard⁽⁵⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 59

9/2

Has shown improved form recently with 3 consecutive runner-up finishes in handicaps, going down by only a short head off this mark at Leicester (7f, firm) 12 days ago. Turns out again before a 2 lb rise takes effect. Obvious claims.

Form: 757222

Goodwood winner last June. Also second over 1m at Salisbury later that month but has struggled since, with latest Salisbury fourth only a small step back in the right direction.

Form: 850-974

(3)

Amal⁶²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-11| J: Miss Imogen Mathias⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 45

125/1

One win from 31 Flat runs and that was back in 2021. Sixth of 9 in classified event (100/1) at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm) 62 days ago. Big outsider again.

Form: P08/06-6

Forecasts

Risen Again (9/4), Pride Of Nepal (4/1), Joycean Way (9/2), Platinum Prince (8/1), Alazwar (17/2), Uncle Dick (9/1), Never Dream (12/1), Marsh Benham (20/1), Huntly Lodge (25/1), Amal (125/1)

JOYCEAN WAY is 2 lb well in compared to his future mark and is taken to gain reward for his recent consistency. Last year's winner Pride of Nepal may provide the chief threat ahead of Alazwar who is only 1lb higher than when scoring at Newbury under Brodie Hampson earlier in the summer.
