9/2

Scored for fourth time on level this year when taking 10-runner handicap at Redcar (10f, good to soft) 19 days ago, cosily. Tries longer trip now and has to be of serious interest again.

6/1

Back to winning ways at Musselburgh (18.1f) last month. Not been in quite same form either start since but remains feasibly treated and can't be ruled out. Blinkers back on.

15/2

Back from 6 months off when creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Salisbury (14.2f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Entitled to build on that and is 1 lb lower now.

20/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Ran poorly on handicap debut at Sandown (10f) 90 days ago and is best watched upped in trip for new yard here.

9/2

Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap (6/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good) 45 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Back up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Not out of things.

Karthala^b1¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: J Mitchell| T: R Varian| OR: 68

11/1

Posted best effort yet, in first-time cheekpieces, when good second of 8 in handicap (17/2) at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) 17 days ago, nearest finish. Worth a crack at this longer trip and must enter calculations. Blinkers now added.

Forecasts

Sawgrass (2/1), Spartan Times (9/2), Kotari (9/2), Dreams Adozen (6/1), Hebridean Nomad (15/2), Karthala (11/1), Westlain (14/1), Cynthia (16/1), Whatcombe (20/1)

This longer trip is something of an unknown for SPARTAN TIMES but he arrives at the top of his game and is taken to score again. Karthala and Hebridean Nomad may provide the chief threat.
