Maris Angel²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: C J Orr⁽³⁾| T: Fionn McSharry| OR: 78| CD

5/2

5/2, completed the 4-timer from a career-high mark in 7-runner handicap at this C&D 25 days ago by ¾ length from Court Drive, leading under 2f out. That was her third C&D success in recent weeks (has won her last 5 starts here), so she's a must for the shortlist raised another 4 lb.

Queue Dos^b¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Edward Greatrex| T: J S Moore| OR: 76| CD

13/2

C&D winner in September and shaped as if still in good form when fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (16/1) 18 days ago. Drops back in grade and could well run into a place.

Secret Mistral¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Cieren Fallon| T: A W Carroll| OR: 74| C| D

10/1

Course winner who picked up where she left off 9 weeks prior when third of 7 in handicap (11/1) at this course (5.1f) 11 days ago. Yard in flying form so would be folly to dismiss from a decent draw.

Lady Wingalong¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Loughnane| T: P D Evans| OR: 74| CD

13/2

C&D winner. 3 wins from 15 runs this year. Shaped as if still in good form when third of 9 in handicap (11/1) at this course (7.2f) 11 days ago, likely to have benefited from being held on to a little longer.

Searchingtheblues⁵⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Tyler Heard| T: M D I Usher| OR: 72| C

33/1

Course winner. 28/1, fared better than of late under a change of tactics when third of 6 in handicap at this course (7.2f) a couple of months ago, having run of race. Needs to build on that here.

Bella Bisbee¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 69| BF| CD

9/4

C&D winner earlier in the month. 5/2, creditable second of 9 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 11 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. Every chance she'll be in the mix again.

Court Drive^b²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: L Morris| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 68| C| D

11/2

Course winner who again ran well when ¾-length second of 7 to Maris Angel in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 25 days ago, sticking to the task late on despite having to challenge widest of all up the straight. Not taken lightly on 3 lb better terms with that rival.

Form: 439622

Mersea¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 8-7| J: Hollie Doyle| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 65| D

50/1

Completed simple task at Musselburgh in August though has largely struggled since, including when down the field at Newcastle (5f) 13 days ago. Back up in trip. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Forecasts

Bella Bisbee (9/4), Maris Angel (5/2), Court Drive (11/2), Queue Dos (13/2), Lady Wingalong (13/2), Powdering (15/2), Secret Mistral (10/1), Searchingtheblues (33/1), Mersea (50/1)

MARIS ANGEL was better than ever when accounting for Court Drive over C&D earlier in the month and with better still to come, Fionn McSharry's filly gets the nod to complete an impressive 5-timer at this track and confirm her superiority with that rival. Bella Bisbee, who was also successful over C&D recently, can edge out the returning Powdering for minor honours.
