Emily Rebecca¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Alec Voikhansky⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 64| CD

15/2

Course and distance winner with 2 placed efforts from 3 runs since last victory. Only seventh of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (AW) (11/1) 12 days ago. Returns to turf where career wins have been achieved.

Form: 611237

A Swan Song²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 63

40/1

Lightly-raced filly gradually being brought along, finishing 5th of 9 in a Windsor maiden (80/1) 24 days ago. Making handicap debut stepping up to 12f which should suit as the type to improve in handicaps.

Form: 0-45

Night Tara⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 61| BF

5/2

Won a 10f handicap at Chelmsford last month showing improved form. Finished a narrow second of 7 in 11f handicap at Southwell 7 days ago (5/6), only denied on the nod after steady tempo blunted stamina advantage. Step up to 12f looks likely to unlock further improvement.

Form: 996122

Glitter Code^p¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: W J Knight| OR: 60

22/1

Winless after 16 starts, finished third of 10 in handicap at Windsor (18/1) 10 days ago when trying 11f on soft ground. May benefit from longer trips going forward.

Form: 224553

Soldiers Chorus²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S D Bowen| T: D Menuisier| OR: 60

11/1

Yet to show much in three novice races on AW, finishing fifth of 8 in novice race at Kempton Park (150/1) 29 days ago when held up and never on terms. Could be more competitive making handicap debut.

Form: 905

(8)

Love You Back¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Ashley Lewis⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 59| BF

15/8

Still seeking a first win but has placed in 3 of last 4 runs including when runner-up at Kempton (AW). Finished third of 9 in handicap at Windsor (1/1) 19 days ago, hanging badly off the bend and losing by just half a length. Returns to Epsom where ran creditably when third over C&D in July and looks well handicapped.

Form: 653423

Girls Night Out⁷³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Owen Lewis⁽⁵⁾| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 58| BF

9/1

Yet to win in 5 starts and ran below expectations when 6th of 9 in handicap at Ffos Las (7/2) 73 days ago. Step up to 12f may help but overall form remains modest.

Form: 864-46

(6)

Tenadaay¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: J Gallagher| OR: 57

33/1

Modest in four career starts, finishing eighth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (28/1) 15 days ago making little impression. May need more time to show ability.

Form: 75-68

Jack Langley^h⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Tyler Heard| T: S Dow| OR: 51| D

8/1

Won at Lingfield (AW) in June but form has been mixed since, most recently running well when second of 10 in a handicap at Lingfield (4/1) 8 days ago after being short of room. Hood back on which could help maintain focus.

Form: 517362

(2)

A Bit Iffy³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Gina Mangan| T: R Cook & J Bridger| OR: 48

33/1

Best effort when second of 10 at this C&D in July but eighth of 10 in minor race at Lingfield (13/2) 30 days ago, weakening late.

Form: 672988

Forecasts

Love You Back (15/8), Night Tara (5/2), Emily Rebecca (15/2), Jack Langley (8/1), Girls Night Out (9/1), Soldiers Chorus (11/1), Glitter Code (22/1), A Bit Iffy (33/1), Tenadaay (33/1), A Swan Song (40/1)

NIGHT TARA has been knocking on the door since making a winning handicap debut at Chelmsford, denied only on the nod at Southwell last week where a steady tempo blunted her stamina advantage. This step up to 12f looks ideal to unlock further improvement. Love You Back returns to a C&D where he ran creditably and looks well handicapped despite hanging tendencies. Jack Langley's recent Lingfield second also puts him in the mix.
