Versailles Prince³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: D Egan| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 69| BF

9/2

Has shown modest ability in novice races, finishing fourth of 5 in 10f handicap at Leicester (6/5) 33 days ago when well backed. This step up to 11f should suit.

Silver Chamber³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 69

7/4

Progressive in handicaps on turf, successful in a field of 4 at Ripon (12f) at odds of 7/4 34 days ago, settling better and always holding on. Can go well again.

Form: 4-76421

(5)

Calaxy³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 68

33/1

Won a maiden at Southwell (7f, AW) last October but disappointed when ninth of 10 in a handicap at Sandown (66/1) 33 days ago, albeit left poorly placed and racing wide. Current handicap mark appears harsh and stepping up in trip raises questions on pedigree.

Form: 051-09

Furhaan³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: K Shoemark| T: E Walker| OR: 67

18/1

Lightly-raced gelding yet to make much impact, finishing fourth of 8 in novice at Thirsk (20/1) 30 days ago when not knocked about. May do appreciably better now stepping up significantly in trip for handicap debut.

Form: 794

Flagon Dry^b1²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Edward Greatrex| T: W Greatrex| OR: 66

22/1

Poor recent form, well-beaten 4th of 8 at Nottingham (18/1) 25 days ago. Now wears first-time blinkers.

Form: 21-3604

(6)

Nelson Gate^b⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Shepherd| T: G & J Moore| OR: 60

4/1

Showed improved form when second of 11 in handicap at Kempton Park (12/1) 5 days ago, beaten only a nose. Knocking firmly on the door and looks sure to go well again.

Form: 479-922

(9)

Glitter Code^p²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Oisin Murphy| T: W J Knight| OR: 60

18/1

Placed twice in handicaps earlier in the summer and run best excused when fifth of 6 in handicap at Yarmouth over 10f (4/1) 29 days ago, left poorly placed. Still a maiden but dangerous to dismiss all the same.

Form: 222455

Ottoman^p⁵⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Hollie Doyle| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 58| BF

12/1

Won a handicap at Leicester in June before finishing third of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (6/4 favourite) 58 days ago when caught in a pocket on the rail. Could be competitive again if getting a clearer run.

Form: 493123

Witch Hazel⁹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J R Boyle| OR: 57

18/1

Modest form in three AW maiden/novice starts, latest when eighth of 11 at Lingfield (200/1) 95 days ago where plodded on after meeting trouble. Making handicap debut and needs a lot more.

Form: 468

(7)

Three On Thursday⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: A W Carroll| OR: 56

15/2

Second of 9 in handicap at this C&D (8/1) 9 days ago, clearly suited by the step up in trip. Looks ready to break her maiden soon.

Forecasts

Silver Chamber (7/4), Nelson Gate (4/1), Versailles Prince (9/2), Three On Thursday (15/2), Ottoman (12/1), Furhaan (18/1), Glitter Code (18/1), Witch Hazel (18/1), Flagon Dry (22/1), Nuptown Girl (25/1), Calaxy (33/1)

THREE ON THURSDAY has been running consistently well and arriving on the back of an excellent second over C&D recently, she's taken to break her maiden at the expense of Nelson Gate, who is also knocking on the door after consecutive runner-up finishes. Furhaan appeals as the type to do appreciably better now stepping up in trip on handicap debut and is another to take seriously, particularly if the betting speaks in his favour.
