11/4

Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap (12/1) at Haydock (1¼m, good) 10 days ago. Back down in trip. More than capable off this mark.

Form: 224-095

Starliner³³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 72

11/1

Latest win at Hamilton (9f, good to firm) in May. More miss than hit since but can't dismiss having returned to that winning mark.

Form: 187577

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Jason Hart| T: C Johnston| OR: 76| D

7/2

Three wins from 15 runs this year. Latest win at Pontefract (1m, good) in August. 13/2, good second of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (1m, AW) 11 days ago. Likely to continue in form.

15/2

Three wins from 12 runs this year, including back to back at Ayr (7f) and Hamilton (1m) in July. Run of good form came to a halt when only sixth of 7 at this course (7f, good to firm) 37 days ago.

Criminal Shore^v1¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Mark Winn| T: D O'Meara| OR: 74| D

5/1

Respectable sixth of 13 in handicap (16/1) at Sandown (1m, soft) 16 days ago. First-time visor replaces cheekpieces. Needs to recapture the form he showed in the spring.

Form: 284346

(5)

This Years Love²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 66| D

5/1

On a hat-trick after wins around 1m at Carlisle and Beverley (goes well there) last month. Should remain competitive off 4 lb higher but needs to show he's as effective on this sharper course.

Form: 240811

Lovely Spirit¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 66| C

15/2

Course winner at 2. Yet to get seriously competitive in handicaps this year but bit better when seventh of 10 at Carlisle (9f, good) 13 days ago and being eased another 3 lb can only help.

Form: 122-097

Forecasts

Empire Of Light (11/4), Saxonia (7/2), Criminal Shore (5/1), This Years Love (5/1), Inanna (15/2), Lovely Spirit (15/2), Starliner (11/1)

SAXONIA is enjoying a decent spell and might be good for another win. Empire of Light has hinted at promise the last twice and can make an impact now dipping to a Class 5 for the first time this year. Lovely Spirit also hinted at promise last time and could also have a part to play back at the scene of her sole win.
