Moulin Booj3(ex 5)
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-1| J: D Tudhope| T: George Scott| OR:  81| CD
Keen-going C&D winner who finished runner-up to a revitalised Accrual here earlier this month. Ran up to his best when going one better in similar company at Nottingham on Tuesday (carries a 5 lb penalty here). This race should set up nicely, and a follow up isn't ruled out.

Accrual13
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-8| J: William Pyle| T: Mrs R Carr| OR:  79| CD
Had gone off the boil for David Loughnane (sold for 22,000) before bouncing back to make all over C&D 12 days ago, always holding pair of next-time-out winners (Moulin Booj reopposes). Still 1 lb lower than when successful on all-weather over the winter. No surprise if he makes it 2-2 for Ruth Carr.

Age: 5|  Weight: 9-7| J: D Nolan| T: P T Midgley| OR:  78| CD
Has remained in good heart since getting off the mark for current yard over C&D in June. Caught the eye with her move into the race 1¾ lengths sixth (behind Managing Director) in 'Jump Jockeys' Nunthorpe' at York and likely strong pace could play into her hands here. Looks interesting.

Notched a third success from 5 starts on turf this season in a thin race at Nottingham (5f) last month. Had little to give at the business end in a big-field Glorious Goodwood handicap (6f) subsequently and this still looks competitive enough.

Rock Of England13
Age: 6|  Weight: 9-5| J: L Morris| T: P T Midgley| OR:  76| C| D
Made it 3 wins from 6 starts this year when seeing off an in-form rival to land a 5-runner handicap at Hamilton last month. Only 1¼ lengths behind Moulin Booj (won since) and Accrual over C&D latest and is weighted to be closer this time.

Equity Lawp54
Age: 5|  Weight: 9-4| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR:  75| CD
Successful over C&D this time last year before winning off his current mark at Catterick. Finished close third in a better race here in May prior to gamely opening his account for season at Pontefract last time. Needs more again on return from 7-week break, though.

Hover On The Wind28
Age: 6|  Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: P T Midgley| OR:  75| D
Wasn't on a going day when fourth in this corresponding event 12 months ago. Ran at least as well as ever when defying a penalty to complete a Pontefract double last month. Flying too high in hat-trick bid there subsequently and should be more competitive in this grade.

Managing Director20
Age: 4|  Weight: 9-2| J: P J McDonald| T: G R Oldroyd| OR:  73| CD
Forward-going type whose sole success came over C&D as a juvenile. Looked as good as ever second start back from a significant absence, finishing 1 length third of 17 in a competitive York handicap. Has to be considered against some more exposed types.

Our Absent Friends30
Age: 8|  Weight: 8-12| J: Shane Gray| T: T Davidson| OR:  69| D
Quickly put a lesser effort behind him to land a gamble in Class 6 sprint at Catterick last time. That form has some substance, but improvement needed to follow up in a stronger race.

Forecasts

Moulin Booj (7/2), Winchurch (9/2), Equity Law (11/2), Accrual (13/2), Rock Of England (15/2), Managing Director (15/2), Our Absent Friends (10/1), Emerald Harmony (10/1), Hover On The Wind (12/1)

Verdict

A strongly-run race could tip this tricky sprint in favour of EMERALD HARMONY, who caught the eye with her move into contention at York last time. Accrual and Managing Director are both entitled to make bold bids, with Tuesday's Nottingham scorer Moulin Booj not taken lightly under a penalty.
