Arlington^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Oliver Carmichael⁽⁷⁾| T: B Smart| OR: 50| CD

4/1

Mixed form with 2nd at Ripon and 3rd at Redcar in summer turf handicaps. Weakened at Newcastle recently after leading but facing pressure. Should improve returning to Southwell (last win over C&D) and one to consider.

3/1

C&D winner. Seventh of 11 in AW handicap at Southwell (7/1) 29 days ago, led but weakened in the final furlong after going 3 lengths clear. Drop to 5f could be ideal now.

6/1

Long-standing maiden showing improved form lately, including when third of 9 in a 5f handicap at Bath (5/1) 19 days ago, impeded twice. Needs that bit more.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: S Hodgson| OR: 47

9/1

PIPERSTOWN could resume winning ways returning to 5f having gone too hard over 6f here last time. Payforanother Daay remains a maiden but has been knocking on the door, finishing a close third at Yarmouth. Arlington returns to the scene of his last win and could go well.
