Chasing Gold³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Michael Keady| OR: 54| BF

14/1

Made the frame in 3 of his last 5 handicap starts but finished 6th of 10 at Kempton (11/4) 36 days ago, again awkward leaving stalls and taking a strong hold. Removal of cheekpieces may help him settle better.

Form: 0-43446

(14)

Uncle Sam¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: O J Orr| T: D Thompson| OR: 54| CD

5/1

C&D on final 2024 start. Finished 6th over 5f here 16 days ago but had trouble in running and likely would have placed with a clear run. Return to 6f in his favour and he's been eased 1 lb.

Form: 1-23736

East Tyrone^p⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Cam Hardie| T: P A Kirby| OR: 54| D

14/1

After poor turf form, wasn't disgraced when 4th of 9 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 5 days ago on first run since leaving Kevin Ryan. This is a lesser band of handicap.

Form: 687044

Bad Habits¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 53

25/1

Struggled for form before finishing third of 14 in handicap at Southwell (40/1) 13 days ago after 6 months off, keeping on. Looks ready for return to 7f.

Form: 899073

Invincible Annice^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Amie Waugh⁽³⁾| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 52

33/1

Has been running below form lately but ran better in first-time cheekpieces when fourth of 13 in 5f handicap here (25/1) 16 days ago. May benefit from returning to this 6f trip given previous C&D efforts.

Form: 664894

(9)

Colour Code⁹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Kaiya Fraser| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 51| CD

Green Valentine²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Barry McHugh| T: A D Brown| OR: 49| D

40/1

Won at Hamilton (25/1) over 6f in September but disappointed when 6th of 7 at Ayr (7,2f) 28 days ago, longer trip likely a factor. Quickly back at 6f.

Form: 009016

(13)

Darla's Secret¹⁰³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: D Swift| T: S Spencer| OR: 48| BF

22/1

Yet to win in 8 starts and sixth of 9 in classified race over 7f (10/3) in July, failing to quicken when shaken up. Needs improvement dropping back to 6f.

Form: 76-8666

(5)

Yellow Lemons^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Joanna Mason| T: K Scott| OR: 46

14/1

Showed poor form over longer trips but much improved when second of 9 in handicap over C&D (20/1) 23 days ago. Task is to now back that up but she's unexposed as a sprinter.

Form: 608902

(10)

Korroor^v⁵⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 46| CD

Yorkshire Glory¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: A Mullen| T: B Haslam| OR: 46

10/3

Several placed efforts this season, including a 2nd at Musselburgh in May. Third of 13 in handicap over this C&D (11/1) 16 days ago, running well on return to sprinting after 3 months off. Likely to remain competitive back here over this trip.

Form: 723373

(6)

Ziva's Star⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Rowan Scott| T: S Whitaker| OR: 45

80/1

Winless in 14 starts, finished ninth of 12 in a handicap at Ripon (40/1) 40 days ago, looking laboured from an early stage and never involved. Will need to show more.

Form: 436039

Forecasts

Catherine Chroi (3/1), Yorkshire Glory (10/3), Korroor (4/1), Uncle Sam (5/1), Chasing Gold (14/1), East Tyrone (14/1), Yellow Lemons (14/1), Colour Code (14/1), Darla's Secret (22/1), Bad Habits (25/1), Invincible Annice (33/1), Green Valentine (40/1), Ziva's Star (80/1), Nanyuki (100/1)

UNCLE SAM was unlucky not finish closer when meeting trouble in running over 5f at this course 16 days ago and he looks well placed to bounce back returning to the C&D of his previous win. Yorkshire Glory has been consistent and ran well when third here after a break, while Yellow Lemons showed significant improvement when runner-up over C&D last time and is unexposed as a sprinter.
