Thapa VC^t²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: J Mitchell| T: M G Rimell| OR: 65| CD

16/5

C&D winner. 22/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, eighth of 12 in novice hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, good) on NH debut 24 days ago. Respectable effort on latest start in this sphere and he's not discounted.

Form: 155486

Silent Flame¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: B R Millman| OR: 63

11/1

Latest win at Salisbury in July. 13/2, fifth of 6 in handicap at Brighton (7f, soft) 15 days ago. Yet to win beyond 6f and not sure that the return to this trip will be in her favour.

Rating^p²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Rossa Ryan| T: G Brown| OR: 63

16/1

Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Last of 9 in handicap (16/1) at Kempton (12f) 25 days ago. Significantly back down in trip and cheekpieces refitted. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 23-5269

Spirit Of Breeze^p,t⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Ashley Lewis⁽⁵⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 62

5/1

One win from 3 runs this year. Won 8-runner handicap (11/4) at Salisbury (7f, good) 47 days ago, slowly away. Up 7 lb for that, but the front two did pull nicely clear of the rest there and this 5-y-o needs considering.

Form: 548-251

(5)

Louie The Legend¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Ray Dawson| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 64| D

11/2

Latest win at Nottingham in July. Eighth of 14 in minor event (18/1) at Doncaster (8f, good) 16 days ago. Looks vulnerable.

Form: 416798

Dappled Light^b³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Finley Marsh| T: A Wintle| OR: 59| CD

5/1

C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win here in May. 8/1, below form eighth of 15 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good) 36 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good.

Form: 611848

Moonlight Bomb¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: William Carver| T: J A Osborne| OR: 61

17/2

Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 12/1) 12 days ago. Others make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 736264

On A Vespa^p²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 57

9/1

Winner at Ffos Las in August. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, soft, 11/2) 29 days ago. Likely to be seen in a better light now back on a faster surface.

Form: 352310

(2)

Weston Court^p⁹²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Nicola Currie| T: R Harris| OR: 48| CD

28/1

C&D winner. Fourth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) when last seen in June. On a workable mark, but one or two of the others look stronger all the same.

Form: 106-884

(4)

Fact Or Fable^p¹⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 8-10| J: George Bass| T: J S Moore| OR: 47| CD

14/1

Three-time C&D winner, the latest registered in June. 6/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap back here (good to soft) 17 days ago and he's a strong each-way candidate.

Form: 143593

(8)

Perfect Parole^p¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Jack Doughty| T: J Gallagher| OR: 45

50/1

Twelfth of 13 in handicap (18/1) at Brighton (8f, soft) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and it's probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 746540

Forecasts

Thapa VC (16/5), Dappled Light (5/1), Spirit Of Breeze (5/1), Louie The Legend (11/2), Moonlight Bomb (17/2), On A Vespa (9/1), Silent Flame (11/1), Fact Or Fable (14/1), Rating (16/1), Weston Court (28/1), Perfect Parole (50/1)

The most logical starting point is SPIRIT OF BREEZE, who regained the winning thread at Salisbury and the return to this trip will, if anything, be a good thing. The 5-y-o is taken to strike again, with Fact Or Fable and On A Vespa likely to be on the premises. Thapa Vc could also have a part to play.
