Conscript⁹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: H Crouch| T: C G Cox

10/11

Soldier's Call gelding who shaped promisingly when third on debut at Haydock last summer and encouraging he built on that following 14 months off when landing 5-runner maiden (3/1) at Ffos Las (6f, good) in July, well on top finish. Step up to 7f looks sure to suit and big player under a penalty.

Form: 3-1

Fight Your Corner

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J Tate

9/2

Frankel gelding. First foal of a dam who won the Duke of Cambridge Stakes. Makes a belated debut from what looks a tricky draw but significant if the market spoke in his favour.

Form:

Titus Thor^h⁴⁰¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Gina Mangan| T: M S Saunders

300/1

Once-raced maiden. 200/1 and hooded, last of 11 in novice at this course (6f) on debut 13 months ago, slowly into stride and never on terms. Can only be watched on this belated return.

Form: 0-

Al Hofzan

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: William Cox| T: G Nicholls

66/1

65,000 gns yearling, Kodiac gelding. Dam maiden out of useful winner up to 9f (2-y-o 6.5f winner) Devotee. Betting can likely point the way on debut.

Form:

Hit Squad¹⁹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A Watson

13/8

Kameko colt who produced a promising first effort when chasing home Cosmic Year in a 13-runner C&D novice back in the spring. Off the track since but a repeat gives him definite claims of going one place better here.

Form: 2

(6)

Mapplethorpe^t²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Jack Jones| BF

33/1

Twice-raced maiden. 7/4 and tongue strap on for 1st time, shaped much better than the bare result when last of 4 in maiden at Brighton (7f, good) 23 days ago, seemingly ill-at-ease on the track. Type to do better and he will have handicaps as an option after this.

Form: 44

(2)

Potters Prince

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Jonny Peate| T: M Crawley

150/1

Territories gelding. Half-brother to 6f-1m winner Gigi's Beach and 1m/8.4f winner Ciyounesse. Dam, 2-y-o 1m winner, half-sister to useful 5f winner Celerina.

Form:

Rory's Royale⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: S Hodgson

200/1

Coach House gelding who is a half-brother to several winners but looked one for the longer term when eighth of 9 in novice at Leicester (7f, good to soft, 125/1) on debut 8 days ago, missing break.

Form: 8

(3)

Kartini⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Tom Marquand| T: Oliver Cole

14/1

Dark Angel filly who still looked in need of the experience when fourth of 7 in maiden at this C&D (18/1) 9 days ago, not unduly punished. Looks the type to do better in handicaps including over further but respected nevertheless for each-way purposes.

Form: 34

(8)

Miss Allsorts⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Edward Greatrex| T: P Attwater

125/1

Wootton Bassett filly who finished no better than midfield in novice/maidens on turf earlier this season. Low-grade handicaps ought to see her in a better light.

Form: 65

(13)

My O My²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Rob Hornby| T: C Hills

125/1

Twice-raced filly who showed a little more than she had on debut 13 months earlier when sixth of 7 in novice at Southwell (7.1f, 18/1) 23 days ago. However, she'll need to find a major chunk of improvement if she's to play a part here.

Form: 0-6

(12)

Pride Eye^t¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Harry Davies| T: M G Rimell

125/1

1,000 gns 3-y-o, Expert Eye filly. Tongue strap on, eighth of 11 in novice at this course (8f, 300/1) on debut 12 days ago, going with little promise. Another who is best watched from a tough draw.

Form: 8

Forecasts

Conscript (10/11), Hit Squad (13/8), Fight Your Corner (9/2), Kartini (14/1), Mapplethorpe (33/1), Al Hofzan (66/1), English (66/1), Miss Allsorts (125/1), Pride Eye (125/1), My O My (125/1), Potters Prince (150/1), Rory's Royale (200/1), Titus Thor (300/1)

CONSCRIPT made light of a 14-month absence and looked better the further he went when landing a small-field Ffos Las maiden (6f) in July. Still displaying signs of greenness then, he appeals as the type to progress again now upped to 7f and earns the vote. Hit Squad found only Cosmic Year too good on debut in a C&D novice 6 months ago and he understandably commands plenty of respect. Kartini and newcomer Fight Your Corner are others worthy of a second look.
