Slipper Time³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Nicola Currie| T: H Candy| OR: 78

10/1

Progressive type opened his account at Salisbury in August and backed it up with a very good third of 10 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 34 days ago, best work finish. A likely player on his polytrack debut upped to 1m.

Form: 3413

Penfolds Grange⁶²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: M Pattinson| OR: 75

100/1

Respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 15/2) 62 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Harry Eustace and no forlorn hope.

Form: 1-37366

(2)

Enthused⁶⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Laura Pearson| T: James Owen| OR: 72

50/1

10/3, below form fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) 66 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat so can't be discounted.

Form: 870281

Forecasts

Olympic Candle (3/1), Cogitate (10/3), Headmaster (10/3), Talis Evolvere (9/2), Slipper Time (10/1), Footwork (11/1), Notimeforchitchat (12/1), Borgi (22/1), King's Vanity (50/1), Enthused (50/1), Rukaana (100/1), Penfolds Grange (100/1)

Henry Candy's improving Time Test gelding SLIPPER TIME advanced his form when third on his handicap bow at Newbury last time and with that form having been well advertised since, he earns the vote ahead of Borgi who wasn't seen to ideal effect when fourth at Southwell recently and rates a big threat. The returning Olympic Candle is leniently weighted if ready to roll, while Footwork and Notimeforchitchat need factoring in too.
