Al Rufaa²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 10-0| J: Ray Dawson| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 75| CD

11/4

Course winner. Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 5/1) 24 days ago. Now 2 lb below last winning mark and can make his presence felt.

Age: 10| Weight: 9-12| J: S M Levey| T: D O'Meara| OR: 73

18/1

33/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 13 days ago. Another who has slipped to a handy mark, but others look more solid all the same.

Form: 453480

Enthused^v¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: Alexandra Egan⁽⁷⁾| T: James Owen| OR: 71

25/1

Latest win at Chelmsford City in June. Last of 7 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 40/1) 14 days ago. Hopes pinned on the refitting of a visor working the oracle.

Form: 028107

Serious Look²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: D C Costello| T: T Faulkner| OR: 68| CD

12/1

Three wins from 6 runs this year. Improved on recent efforts to win 13-runner C&D handicap (5/1) 21 days ago, overcoming pace bias. 4 lb rise fair and should give it a good shot in his bid for a fourth C&D success.

Form: 113841

Boubyan^p³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 72

20/1

Winner at Newbury in July. Tenth of 14 in handicap at Newmarket (9f, good to firm, 28/1) 37 days ago. Needs to find something extra now switched to tapeta.

Form: 9-38100

Youarenotforgiven^p²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Marco Ghiani| T: A W Carroll| OR: 67| CD

7/1

C&D winner. Latest win here in September. 11/1, bit below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to soft) 25 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Opposable from a win perspective.

Form: 987316

Flaine^p,t⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Taryn Langley⁽⁵⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 69| CD

12/1

Five wins from 19 Flat runs. Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D (25/1) 9 days ago. Record on AW now stands at 5-17 and has to enter calculations up 3 lb.

Form: 127911

King's Hand⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: Sir Mark Prescott| OR: 69

5/4

Promising sort. Excellent second of 10 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 9 days ago, left with too much to do. Remains capable of better and will probably go one better this time.

Form: 657-2

Crackalackin¹⁷⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Dr R Newland| OR: 69

16/1

Creditable third of 11 in handicap (13/2) at this C&D when last seen in May, slowly away. No more than an each-way squeak.

Form: 4-44533

Starliner²⁸

Forecasts

King's Hand (5/4), Al Rufaa (11/4), Youarenotforgiven (7/1), Serious Look (12/1), Flaine (12/1), Crackalackin (16/1), Orbaan (18/1), Boubyan (20/1), Starliner (20/1), Enthused (25/1)

By far the most interesting of these is KING'S HAND, who was returning from a 13-month absence when keeping on into second on his C&D handicap debut recently and the best is surely yet to come from this unexposed son of Kingman. Last-time-out winners Serious Look and Flaine are feared most in that order of preference, while Al Rufaa could also have a part to play.
