Regal Gaming Grand Gallop Handicap

Ended a long losing run at Wolverhampton in March (second past the post but promoted) and wasted no time getting back to form when fourth of 13 there (9.5f) in July. Record on turf isn't as convincing and he failed to settle when fifth of 9 in handicap at Chester (10.3f, good to firm) 31 days ago.

Offered nothing in 2 outings last year for D. J. Jeffreys. Looks easy to oppose returning for new yard after 13 months off.

Posted a couple of good efforts prior to resuming winning ways at C&D (firm) under Finley Marsh in July and confirmed himself as still in form third of 7 in handicap (13/2) at Windsor (1m, good to firm) 30 days ago.

Veteran who overcame a very slow start to notch an eleventh course success in a 5-runner handicap here (1¼m, firm) 33 days ago. This looks more competitive but he should give another good account from just 2 lb higher.

Won at Kempton in January but hasn't been able to get involved after missing the break on all 3 starts since returning from 5 months off.

Headstrong sort who is still seeking a first win but ran creditably enough dropped back in trip when third of 4 in handicap at Chepstow (1¼m, good to firm) 48 days ago. Worth betting check having first start over 1m since January 2025.

Twelve runs since last win in 2025 but has finished runner-up 4 times this summer, including going down by only a neck over at Chepstow in July. Not best placed on the far wing when last seen there 24 days ago and it'd be no surprise if he were to bounce back at a track where he has a decent record.

Consistent in handicaps, opening her account at Windsor in May and doubling her tally at Leicester (1m, good to firm) under Tom Marquand in July. Pulled a long way clear with one that has already followed up back at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last week and she makes plenty of appeal again.

Typically outpaced/suited by the brisk pace when scrambling home (had to survive stewards inquiry) in a 7f Salisbury handicap in July and wasn't in the same form granted less-favourable circumstances when fifth of 6 there 3 weeks ago.

Has shown modest form and temperament in 7f/1m maidens, outpaced before consenting to run on late when third of 5 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago. More required on handicap debut.

Chepstow maiden winner for Jack Channon last year but hasn't proved she's trained on this season.
