Dr Ali^p1²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Marco Ghiani| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 55

50/1

Last of 6 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, soft, 28/1) 26 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time returned to the AW and also down in class.

Rosemary's Rose^t¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 55

10/1

Not for the first time, she shaped better than the result when fifth of 7 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy) 10 days ago, needing lesser test after racing enthusiastically. Makes polytrack debut and that could suit.

Form: 063355

Equalised^p1²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 55| BF

7/2

First run since leaving Charles Hills when respectable fourth of 12 in handicap (3/1) at this course (6f) 20 days ago. Could be the type to benefit from first-time cheekpieces so he's an interesting contender.

Form: 376594

Grey Selkie²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Sam Feilden⁽⁵⁾| T: J Gallagher| OR: 54

40/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Ninth of 13 in handicap at Brighton (8f, soft, 50/1) 23 days ago. Work to do on the balance of her form.

12/1

Sent off 50/1 and never figured under an inexperienced rider last of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f), not knocked about. Off 155 days and fully-fledged rider takes over.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Egan| T: Charlie Clover| OR: 53

Form: 454

(5)

Rovinia⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jack Callan⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 53| BF

10/1

Respectable third of 10 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good, 5/2) 9 days ago. Enters calculations with 7f well worth a go.

Form: 57-3323

(9)

Campani^h²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: D C Costello| T: D M Simcock| OR: 52

16/1

Winner at Brighton in August (6f). Seventh of 8 in handicap (7/2) at Chelmsford City (8f) 20 days ago, neaten by more than a lack of stamina. Drop back in trip does look a wise move, though.

Form: 00-2217

(11)

Step Along¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 52

28/1

Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 16 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Eased further 2 lb but double-figure draw may not be ideal.

Form: 533604

(3)

Eulalia⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Rossa Ryan| T: C Fellowes| OR: 51

9/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good, 9/1) 45 days ago. Only had the 4 races but she needs to up her game.

Form: 8467

(4)

Arlecchino's Rex¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Charles Bishop| T: M D I Usher| OR: 50| D

10/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2024. 5/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 16 days ago, not seen to best effect. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 535346

(12)

Rotation^p,t²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Oliver Carmichael⁽⁷⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 48

50/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2024. 10/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 22 days ago, not knocked about. Cheekpieces back on and he's expected to build on that.

Form: 633447

(7)

Invincible Love¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: J Mitchell| T: C Johnston| OR: 46

16/1

Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 14/1) 16 days ago. Should run closer to form this time.

Form: 547-284

Forecasts

Knight Of India (3/1), Equalised (7/2), Eulalia (9/2), Rovinia (10/1), Arlecchino's Rex (10/1), Rosemary's Rose (10/1), Polar Rebel (10/1), An Fear Beag (12/1), Invincible Love (16/1), Campani (16/1), Step Along (28/1), Grey Selkie (40/1), Rotation (50/1), Dr Ali (50/1)

Quite a few to consider but EQUALISED is very much the type to benefit from the application of headgear and not long with his good yard, he could be the answer. Rovinia and Arlecchino's Rex are just a couple of potential threats.
