Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: Oliver Stammers| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 74| D

2/1

Reliable sort who won a 6f Newcastle maiden in March and 7f Thirsk handicap in July. Held (having been well backed) when suffering the worst of the interference in a competitive race for the grade at Haydock latest. Should give his running back sprinting.

Bonnie's Boy²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Warren Fentiman⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 72

3/1

Best form to date has come on the all-weather, getting off the mark at Newcastle (5f) in October. Backed at long odds when 3½ lengths fourth of 21 at York on just his second start of the summer last time. Needs considering with that form working out well.

Form: 149-404

Rotokura Belle²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Billy Garritty| T: I Furtado| OR: 74| BF

13/2

Dual winner over minimum trip in 3-y-o handicaps this year. Returned to form when close third at York prior to failing to justify her market position at Thirsk last time. Only her second try over 6f and eases slightly in grade here.

Irish Nectar^b²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: M Herrington| OR: 70| D

7/2

Trio of wins to date have come on soft/heavy ground. Mixed it in higher grades for Kevin Ryan last year and is in better heart than recent form figures might suggest. Interesting off a slipping mark, especially if the worst of the rain arrives.

Marajito¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: O McSweeney| T: T D Easterby| OR: 68| C

11/1

Course winner whose best effort this year came when successful in a Ripon handicap in late-May. Only bettered by an improving 3-y-o on return to that venue last time, having been caught a little wider than ideal. Could be competitive off an unchanged mark.

Come On Over^v²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S D Bowen| T: D O'Meara| OR: 67| D

25/1

Showed a good attitude under a positive ride to get off the mark here at Doncaster in early-July (runner-up scoring next time). Back to form when 2¼ lengths fourth on return to that track last time, though contests a slightly better race here.

Magistery⁴⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 66| DWS

50/1

Made all to win 6f Carlisle handicap (soft) last season. Plenty to prove having failed to beat a rival either start this year, though.

Form: 6150-09

Men Of Honour⁵²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 62WS

10/1

Lightly raced for a 4-y-o. Ended time with Andrew Slattery with a creditable fourth of 16 on handicap debut in October. Largely ignored in the betting 4 starts for current yard. Potentially well treated on Irish form and interested if supported returning from a breathing operation/7-week break.

Forecasts

Farandaway (2/1), Bonnie's Boy (3/1), Irish Nectar (7/2), Speeding Bullet (5/1), Rotokura Belle (13/2), Cairdeas (7/1), Men Of Honour (10/1), Marajito (11/1), Come On Over (25/1), Magistery (50/1)

MEN OF HONOUR is potentially well treated on his Irish form. He could be worth chancing in an open-looking sprint, especially if the market speaks in his favour following a breathing operation. Irish Nectar is lurking on a dangerous mark and could capitalise if enough rain arrives, while the Paul Midgley pair both make appeal.
