Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Cieren Fallon| T: G Harris| OR: 70| D

9/2

Successful 3 times this season, with latest win at Leicester in June. Summed up by mark since but this represents a drop in class.

Sir Edward Lear^p²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: George Wood| T: James Owen| OR: 70| D

12/1

Showed a good attitude when doubling tally at Newmarket off a 4 lb higher mark last summer but not in same form in starts this season.

Form: 130-545

Hello Cotai⁸^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: P Cosgrave| T: J R Boyle| OR: 65| D

5/2

Resumed winning ways at Epsom last week though he was seen to maximum advantage that day so he's opposable under a penalty.

Form: 613441

Blue Wonder⁸⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Morrison| OR: 68| BF| D

15/8

Gained a first win at Haydock under this rider in May but failed to back it up with fifth at Leicester following month. Remains handily weighted if back on song after a break.

Form: 600-415

Boy George⁴⁴¹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-11| J: J F Egan| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 65

40/1

Veteran who was better than ever last season, not fully extended when completing a hat-trick at Newbury in June off 1 lb lower. Not seen since but he defied a similar absence in 2024.

Form: 778/111-

Lady Mcc^t¹³¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Paddy Bradley| T: D Steele| OR: 65WS

125/1

Regressed from a promising debut at Dundalk at 3 yrs and made little impact starting out for this yard at Lingfield in April on return. Off since (has had a breathing operation).

Form: 25580-8

Connie Moon^v²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: George Bass| T: D J Coakley| OR: 62

11/1

Still seeking her first win but she wasn't far off her best when fifth at Kempton last time and has been eased another 2 lb.

Form: 538-675

Platinum Prince^b¹¹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Toby Moore⁽⁷⁾| T: G & J Moore| OR: 61| C| D

15/2

Quirky veteran but he's capable at this sort of level (twice a winner over 9f here last summer off higher marks), not suited by a slow pace here 11 days ago.

Form: 25-0545

Benavente²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Finley Marsh| T: G Brown| OR: 59

150/1

Gained his sixth Dundalk success when seeing off 6 rivals in a 7f claimer in March (final run for Denis Hogan) but offered little starting out for this yard after 5 months off at Chepstow 3 weeks ago.

Form: 423810

Brave Leader¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: David Probert| T: T Ward| OR: 60

16/1

Maiden who has struggled to make an impact in handicaps this year, again tight in the betting when trailing home last at Ffos Las 12 days ago.

Form: 45-6469

Forecasts

Blue Wonder (15/8), Hello Cotai (5/2), Oasis Sunrise (9/2), Decalogue (5/1), Platinum Prince (15/2), Prodigal Son (8/1), Connie Moon (11/1), Sir Edward Lear (12/1), Brave Leader (16/1), Boy George (40/1), Lady Mcc (125/1), Benavente (150/1)

BLUE WONDER has been given a break since her disappointing run at Leicester so she's taken to bounce back re-united with Oisin Murphy. Decalogue pulled a long way clear of the others when second off the same mark at Salisbury recently so looks a solid alternative.
