Nine wins from 28 Flat runs. Found it tough going dropped in trip from a 6 lb higher mark when fifth of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (16f, good, 7/1) when last seen 12 months ago. Has needed run on return from absences last 2 seasons and that will probably be the case here.
|
Three-time winner in France in 2023 and notched his first win on these shores in a 9-runner handicap (6/1) at Southwell (16.5f) 23 days ago. Seen to advantage in the circumstances there, though, and overall profile means he's not certain to back that up.
|
2 wins from 6 runs this year, latest at Newbury in July. 22/1, gave his all once again in defeat when third of 13 in handicap at York (16.2f, good) 31 days ago, deserving plenty of credit with things having not gone quite to plan in the early stages. 1 lb higher but could sneak a place.
|
Progressive type who bagged a fourth win in 5-runner handicap at Goodwood (16f, good to firm, 6/4) 27 days ago, drawing clear having been produced to lead over 1f out. 10 lb rise asks another question of him but is firmly on the up and could be up to defying it.
|
6/1, got back on track though did so in rather laboured fashion when third of 14 in handicap at Down Royal (18.6f, good) a fortnight ago, never nearer. Others make more appeal.
|
11/8, ran up to his best when third of 5 in minor event hurdle at Down Royal (24f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Fairly useful on the Flat, creditable on last outing at the Curragh in June.
|
6/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Killarney (14.4f, good) 29 days ago, showing a tenacious attitude to repel all challengers. 9 lb higher and this step up in trip could eke out further improvement.
|
11/4, went through the race like the best horse at the weights only to not quite see things out when third of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (18.1f, good to firm) 24 days ago, that the third successive outing he's traded short in relation to his SP. That tempers enthusiasm somewhat here.
|
Returned to form on second start for current stable when winning 9-runner handicap (40/1) at Musselburgh (18.1f, good to soft) 7 days ago, able to set the pace but proving game. Yard does very well with new recruits and she should remain competitive.

Forecasts
Belgravian (11/8), Reverend Hubert (13/2), Chutzpal (13/2), Dreams Adozen (13/2), Bashful Boy (9/1), Sign From Above (10/1), Almuhit (11/1), Sheradann (16/1), Master Milliner (50/1)
BELGRAVIAN recorded his fourth win from his last 5 starts at Goodwood recently and with the ceiling of his ability yet to be ascertained, he's a confident selection to go in again with further progress on the cards. Chutzpal answered his rider's every call when scoring at Killarney last month, so he may emerge as the main danger heading up in distance. Sheradann, who was seen to advantage when scoring on the all-weather last time, rounds off the shortlist.
