Upepo³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: T Eaves| T: A W Carroll| OR: 60

28/1

All wins at 1½m+ and he was never better than midfield when eighth of 12 in handicap (40/1) at Kempton (1m) 38 days ago. Likely to find this test inadequate again and best watched despite sliding mark.

Coloane²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: Roger Fell| OR: 60| CD

18/5

C&D winner. Latest win here in September. 14/1, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, no match for winner. Should give another good account dipping back to class 6 company.

9/1

C&D winner. 18/1, not seen to best effect when seventh of 14 in handicap at Kempton (1m) 15 days ago, keeping on having been left poorly placed. Not one to write off from steadily easing mark.

6/1

One win from 43 Flat runs. 4/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 24 days ago. First run for yard after leaving S. P. C. Woods. Enters calculations with a repeat for all his strike rate tempers enthusiasm.

11/1

13/2, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 17 days ago, well positioned as the race went and fading final 1f. Blinkers go on for tapeta debut and she's no forlorn hope here for all she remains a maiden.

12/1

3 wins from 13 runs this year. Latest win at Beverley in September. 13/2, good second of 13 in handicap at Redcar (10f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Solid claims back in trip.

Marry The Night^p²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Sean Kirrane| T: T D Easterby| OR: 56| D

10/3

Winner at Redcar in August and he lines up here in good heart, again finding only one too good in 10-runner handicap over C&D 20 days ago. Another meriting respect in a competitive heat for all his draw in 14 could have been kinder.

16/1

Course winner. 5/1, won 12-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 17 days ago, staying on to lead near line. Well suited by how the race developed then and he's not an obvious candidate to follow up.

Wrist Art⁴⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 8-13| J: P Cosgrave| T: James Owen| OR: 50| D

12/1

Ex-Irish gelding who was a dual winner on turf at upto 9f earlier in his career but lost his way in handful of starts this year, fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f) 45 days ago. Joined a yard adept at rejuvenating such types though, so very significant if the market speaks in his favour

R P Mcmurphy²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Edward Greatrex| T: M Appleby| OR: 50

9/2

Showed little in trio of qualifying runs during the summer but after 4 months off/gelded, he showed more than previously when third of 11 on handicap debut over C&D 4 weeks ago, keeping on. Pedigree offers hope for better still and unlikely we've seen all he has to offer yet.

40/1

Blinkered for 1st time, ninth of 14 in handicap (66/1) at Newmarket (9f, good) 20 days ago, going off too hard. Much more needed in any case if he's to feature. Blinkers retained.

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 48

50/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2024. 28/1 and hooded for 1st time, eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 21 days ago. Can only be watched at present.

25/1

C&D winner last winter and largely creditable efforts thereafter, finishing a creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D back in August. Possible he'll tighten up for this first outing for 4 months.

Forecasts

Marry The Night (10/3), Coloane (18/5), R P Mcmurphy (9/2), Francesi (6/1), Mr Fustic (9/1), Mapledurham (11/1), Hashtagnotions (12/1), Wrist Art (12/1), Oscar's Sister (12/1), Reputation (16/1), Mickey Mongoose (25/1), Upepo (28/1), Hot Talent (40/1), Blue Seeker (50/1)

A dual winner earlier this year, HASHTAGNOTIONS lines up here having finished runner-up on 2 of his last 3 starts and he's fancied to make his presence felt again with the return to 1m holding no fears. R P McMurphy has fewer miles on the clock than most and is another to note along with Marry The Night. Coloane, Francesi and Mr Fustic are a trio of others also commanding a second look in a competitive heat.
