Beautiful Diamond¹³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 102| CD

85/40

This season has yet to get going having been off since a below-par reappearance in the Palace House at Newmarket in May but the fact she's 2-2 in C&D listed events makes her a must for the shortlist for in-form Karl Burke.

Form: 51282-8

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 92| D

14/1

Didn't fire in the season but the fact she fact she came good last autumn means it would be no surprise were she to stage a revival back from 8 weeks off.

Form: 114-800

Star Of Lady M^v²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 108| CD

11/2

Sixth win of an excellent 2024 campaign when landing this race. Not at best when 4 lengths third of 9 to Shagraan in listed race (22/1) at Beverley (5f, good) on reappearance 3 weeks ago but she's entitled to come on for that first outing in 10 months. Also has her regular visor back in place.

Form: 11816-3

33/1

Fairly useful filly. Latest win in 5f handicap at Chepstow in August but found out in listed company at Tipperary 19 days ago. First-time blinkers replace visor.

12/1

Her 2025 campaign has already proved to be highly productive, winning 6 times. Improved again when close third to Star of Mehmas at York Ebor meeting and shaped as if still in form when well-held second at Haydock since.

Star Of Mehmas³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Loughnane| T: R Hughes| OR: 102| CD

4/1

Won the Harry Rosebery on this card last year and smart handicap performance when gaining her first success since in 5f handicap at the York Ebor meeting last month. Going softer than good is an unknown but has a solid form chance.

Form: 1-32381

Stella Alpina¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: W McCreery| OR: 85| D

22/1

Fairly useful filly. Made the most of a good opportunity in a 5f Tipperary maiden last month but only sixth in a listed race there since. Improvement will be needed.

Form: 286216

Stormy Impact³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 95| D

15/2

Useful filly who resumed winning ways in 6f Wolverhampton handicap in July. Caught a bit further back than ideal when fifth of 10 in listed race at Pontefract (6f, good) since and treated as if still in form.

Form: 610915

Tiva^v,t²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Mark Winn| T: D O'Meara| OR: 84| D

33/1

On a hat-trick after 5f handicap wins at Ripon and Newmarket last month but needs more at this level and Danny Tudhope prefers Star of Lady M.

Forecasts

Beautiful Diamond (85/40), Star Of Mehmas (4/1), Star Of Lady M (11/2), Stormy Impact (15/2), Magic Basma (12/1), Luna A Inbhir Nis (12/1), Nad Alshiba Green (12/1), Sophia's Starlight (14/1), Lady Of Andros (20/1), Stella Alpina (22/1), Rhyme Dust (25/1), Billie Be Quick (33/1), Tiva (33/1)

Perhaps best to focus on the trio who already have winning form at this level over C&D. Top of the list is last year's winner STAR OF LADY M, who should be sharper for her recent reappearance and won't be inconvenienced however testing the ground gets. Beautiful Diamond, who is bidding to make it a perfect 3-3 in C&D listed races, can shade the forecast spot ahead of last year's Harry Rosebery winner Star of Mehmas.
