Hockney⁷^{(ex 6)}

Age: 3| Weight: 10-2| J: Pierre-Louis Jamin| T: Tom Dascombe| OR: 63| D

5/2

Showed modest form in three novice/maiden runs. Won easily at Lingfield (AW) 7 days ago (2/1), clearly benefiting from a breathing operation. Looks the type to go on improving and can defy a penalty.

Form: 0751

Ottawa³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J Parr| OR: 65

20/1

Ninth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (11/1) 31 days ago having shown better form on AW previously.

Form: 52-309

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: P Mulrennan| T: J Candlish| OR: 65

14/1

Showed improvement when second of 7 in maiden at Ffos Las (6/1) 33 days ago, first run in cheekpieces. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 36-82

(13)

The Green Man^v,t²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: P A Kirby| OR: 62| D

8/1

On a lengthy losing run of 15 races, finished fifth of 12 in handicap at Ripon (33/1) 20 days ago, shaped better than the result despite diving right at the start. First run for new trainer and could build on that improved effort.

Form: 507985

Dazy Mazy^p1⁵²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: P J McDonald| T: J Mackie| OR: 62| D

11/2

Has shown moderate form in handicaps this year, most recently finishing fifth of 9 over course and distance (17/2) 52 days ago, slowly into stride and never threatening. Wearing first-time cheekpieces today.

Form: 33-4565

Line Of Force^b³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Connor Beasley| T: G Tutty| OR: 63| D

16/1

Tumbled down the weights and was eighth of 12 in 7f handicap at Haydock Park (20/1) 37 days ago, better than finishing position suggests after meeting trouble. Drop back to 6f could help.

Form: 708078

One Of Our Own^t,p¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: C Lee| T: R Menzies| OR: 61| D

12/1

Won a 6f handicap at Pontefract in June and has been placed twice since then. Third of 10 in handicap at Hamilton Park (22/1) 12 days ago, making late gains after racing off the pace. Should be competitive again in this selling handicap with a similar effort.

Form: 713683

B Associates^v³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Hart| T: James Owen| OR: 60| D

7/2

Showed good form with two recent second-place finishes at Brighton and Lingfield before unseating rider soon after start in handicap at Chester (7/1) 3 days ago. Worth another chance.

Form: 15522U

Laurens Dream²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Lewis Chalkley⁽⁷⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 58| D

28/1

Showed improved form recently with 3rd of 8 at Ayr (12/1). Raced off the pace and made headway from 2f out when 4th of 10 in 6f handicap at Southwell (6/1) 21 days ago.

Form: 668834

Tootsie¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 50

15/2

Placed second over 7f at this course in July and third twice since, but finished 11th of 13 in 8f handicap at Southwell (8/1) 11 days ago having set solid pace. Drop back to 6f could suit.

Form: 823370

(12)

Almutraf^p⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Barry McHugh| T: B Ellison| OR: 49

33/1

Out of sorts recently, finishing ninth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (16/1) 7 days ago when racing off the pace and hanging left. Form offers little encouragement.

Forecasts

Hockney (5/2), B Associates (7/2), Dazy Mazy (11/2), Tootsie (15/2), The Green Man (8/1), One Of Our Own (12/1), Speaktotheguvnor (14/1), Line Of Force (16/1), Ottawa (20/1), Go On Rosie (20/1), Tuscan Point (22/1), Laurens Dream (28/1), Almutraf (33/1)

HOCKNEY made a mockery of his opening mark when winning easily on handicap debut at Lingfield and looks set to follow up despite a penalty. One Of Our Own has been consistent, making late gains for third at Hamilton recently. B Associates is worth another chance after unseating at Chester.
