Toolatetonegotiate^p³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Oliver Carmichael⁽⁷⁾| T: Daisy Hitchins| OR: 81| D

14/1

Won ordinary affair at Bath over 6f in May but ran poorly upped in grade at Windsor (11th of 12) in June after a rise in the weights. Plenty more required from this mark even if bouncing back returned to 5f.

Lady Roxby⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: M Herrington| OR: 80| D

10/3

Did well last year after joining this yard and started current season with a promising third of 7 at Kempton in April on her return from 6 months. Hasn't kicked on since but has recorded both career wins at 5f and now returns to that trip so merits respect also slipping back down in grade.

Form: 22-3777

Killavia⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Oisin Murphy| T: B R Millman| OR: 81| D

13/2

Won a maiden last July but struggled in better company later that year. Shaped as if needing run when returning from 8 months off in May and perhaps wasn't suited by heavy going when last of 4 at Goodwood last time. Questions to answer but stable in fine form and has a positive jockey booking.

Form: 3109-64

(5)

Paradise Walk^b³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 80| D

4/1

Comes here following back-to-back wins with the latest coming in handicap company when beating a subsequent winner over this trip at Nottingham in June. 4 lb rise to contend with here but she's the most progressive runner in the field and could well have more to come.

Form: 22-2411

Lara Antipova²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Egan| T: Tom Clover| OR: 79

8/1

Lightly-raced 3-y-o who won maiden at Lingfield over 6f on all-weather in April before just a respectable fourth of 7 on handicap debut at Newmarket last time, fading late on. Step back to 5f could help but needs to resume her progression.

Form: 2-214

(7)

Desert Treasure²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 78| D

12/1

In excellent hands and looked a useful prospect when winning both 2-y-o outings but has disappointed in handicaps both starts since returning from a 10-month absence so has something to prove.

Form: 11-07

Dandy Magic^p1⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Loughnane| T: J S Goldie| OR: 70| BF| D

11/4

Northern raider who is a habitual slow starter but she is now back down to last winning mark and has a major upgrade in the saddle with Loughnane taking over from a claimer. Not without hope if getting a strong enough pace to chase back down to 5f.

Form: 300444

(3)

Carefree Dream²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J F Egan| T: J S Moore| OR: 70| D

22/1

Only won once but good efforts in handicaps last 3 starts, finishing second twice in a row at Goodwood over 5f in June before creditable 4th of 11 over 6f at Leicester 20 days ago. Now drops back to 5f with place claims.

Form: 0-05224

(9)

Fantasy Obsessor^v1¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Saffie Osborne| T: M Appleby| OR: 64

16/1

Runner-up 3 times this year but struggling for consistency in lower grades than this and her stable is out of sorts so she comes with risks attached. Now tried in first-time visor and dropped back to 5f.

Form: 022527

Forecasts

Dandy Magic (11/4), Lady Roxby (10/3), Paradise Walk (4/1), Killavia (13/2), Lara Antipova (8/1), Desert Treasure (12/1), Toolatetonegotiate (14/1), Fantasy Obsessor (16/1), Carefree Dream (22/1)

PARADISE WALK has strung together back-to-back wins and looked progressive when narrowly following up at Nottingham over this trip 34 days ago, showing determination to edge ahead close home. She's worth backing to complete the hat-trick here. Dandy Magic has a notable jockey upgrade and should be running on late, while Lady Roxby merits respect back at 5f.
