The Crafty Mole^v⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 76| CD

5/2

C&D winner. Seven wins from 21 Flat runs. 17/2, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Ripon (16f, good) 7 days ago, all out. 3 lb rise not the end of the world and he has to be taken seriously

Form: 898131

Peaky Blinder^p⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: A M Balding| OR: 79

11/4

Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 44 days ago. Others preferred.

Sourdough³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Rob Hornby| T: H Morrison| OR: 78| BF

13/2

11/8, good second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 30 days ago. Looks capable of winning a race, but probably not this one.

Form: 563-352

(5)

Atlantic Sunset^v⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: C Johnston| OR: 77

10/1

Unreliable sort. Winner at Newmarket in June. 4/1, last of 3 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) 43 days ago, slowly away. Gelded since and he needs to get back on track.

Form: 428163

Kitsune Power^p⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 68| D

11/2

Sixteen runs since last win in 2024. 11/2, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, soft) 9 days ago and he's lurking on a dangerous mark. Major player.

Form: 243763

Red Derek⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 8-11| J: Alfie Redman⁽⁷⁾| T: L Williamson| OR: 53

33/1

Two wins from 51 Flat runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Haydock (14f, good, 18/1) 8 days ago, but more will be needed if he's to play a leading role in this.

Form: 50-5823

Division Day⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁵⁾| T: B Ellison| OR: 62| CD

9/2

C&D winner. Career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Southwell (14.1f, 7/2) 7 days ago. This is tougher, but he's been nudged up just 1 lb and has to be respected in his bid to complete the hat-trick.

KITSUNE POWER took a step back in the right direction on ground that would've been plenty soft enough for him at Pontefract recently and, with faster conditions likely here and having eased another 1 lb in the weights, the 6-y-o could be the answer. The Crafty Mole, who has won two of his last three starts, and the hat-trick seeking Division Day rate the main dangers.
