Jake Loves Laura⁸⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Luke Catton⁽³⁾| T: C Hobson| OR: 55

33/1

Has shown ability here with 3rd and 4th places but finished last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (33/1) 88 days ago when hampered at start. Bit to prove back over 5f following a break.

Jungle Dance^v¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Davies| T: J R Jenkins| OR: 55| CD

12/1

Second under an attacking ride over this C&D (50/1) 81 days ago but ninth of 11 in handicap (20/1) here 14 days ago when racing off the pace and never involved. Visor back on replacing blinkers and remains to be seen if that has the desired effect.

Form: 56-0259

Gogo Yubari⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Watson| T: A W Carroll| OR: 54| CD

13/2

Course winner who scored at Windsor (12/1) 103 days ago after a sequence of defeats. Finished sixth of 10 in AW handicap at Lingfield (15/2) 60 days ago, wasn't beaten far but merely plugged on. Returns after break and she's one to consider off this mark.

I Can Imagine¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Jack Jones| OR: 54

9/1

Maiden after 15 starts. Carried head awkwardly when fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (8/1) 19 days ago when tracked pace but found no extra in final half-furlong. Questions to answer dropped markedly in trip.

Autumn Angel²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Molly Gunn⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 53| C

25/1

Has 5 career wins including 2 at this course, possibly needed the run when finishing last of 11 in 6f handicap at Wolverhampton (11/1) 25 days ago. May take a step forward having a rare start over bare 5f.

Street Life^v¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Ethan Tindall⁽⁷⁾| T: P Morris| OR: 53| CD

9/2

Course specialist with 2 wins at this C&D, has shown improved form in recent weeks. Third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (15/2) 14 days ago, keeping on to make the places for a second successive race. Capable of winning off this mark.

My Genghis²³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Jack Doughty| T: A W Carroll| OR: 53| CD

18/1

Course winner ran well when second in handicap at Chepstow (5f) in June with first-time cheekpieces. Off 5 months prior to finishing last at Bath (5.7f) on soft ground 23 days ago, well held in first-time hood. Hood now removed and could fare better on return to this C&D where previously successful.

Form: 45-62V0

Juno Star²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: P J McBride| OR: 53| D

9/2

Won at Southwell (AW) 30 days ago before finishing fourth of 6 in 5f handicap at Chelmsford (3/1) off same mark 23 days ago when held up and making little impression. More on her plate from 4 lb higher.

Form: 845214

Beauzon¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Charles Bishop| T: Ian Williams| OR: 53| C| D

17/2

Multiple course winner at Wolverhampton, finishing sixth of 11 in handicap at same C&D (9/2) 14 days ago, racing off the pace and never threatening in a race where few got involved. Eases slightly in grade and forecast strong pace should suit.

Form: 669656

Nad Alshiba Snow^t1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Marco Ghiani| T: M Murphy| OR: 52

12/1

Showed improved form when third of 7 in a handicap at Chelmsford (40/1) 30 days ago. Did best of those from off the pace on stable debut when fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 14 days ago. Should be competitive in a first-time tongue strap.

Alafdhal^v²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: L Morris| T: P S McEntee| OR: 52| CD

10/3

Course winner including over C&D. Eighth of 9 in handicap here (7/2) 26 days ago when not settling and outpaced from home turn. May do better if he can settle with Luke Morris taking over in the saddle.

Form: 650758

Forecasts

Alafdhal (10/3), Street Life (9/2), Juno Star (9/2), Gogo Yubari (13/2), Beauzon (17/2), I Can Imagine (9/1), Nad Alshiba Snow (12/1), Jungle Dance (12/1), My Genghis (18/1), Autumn Angel (25/1), Jake Loves Laura (33/1)

STREET LIFE was third here a fortnight ago and looks ready to pop up with a win soon. Gogo Yubari returns from a break with a solid record at this venue and won at Windsor (off only 1 lb higher) earlier this season, while Alafdhal has been given a chance by the handicapper if he can settle better with Luke Morris taking over in the saddle.
