Forca Timao^h,t²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Alfie Redman⁽⁵⁾| T: M Pattinson| OR: 60

10/1

Been a while since he scored but posted a season's best when close third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (1¼m, AW, 7/1) 22 days ago. Claims if building on that.

Age: 11| Weight: 9-8| J: Jake Dickson⁽³⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 59| D

14/1

Ended losing run with decisive victory in handicap (13/2) over shorter trip at Carlisle 12 days ago. 7 lb rise in the weights will make things significantly tougher here, though.

Ricardo Phillips^p1³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Harry Vigors⁽³⁾| T: H Candy| OR: 58| CD

5/2

Posted career best when winning 6-runner handicap over C&D (good to firm) 30 days ago, kept up to work. 3 lb rise fair and looks sure to go well again. Cheekpieces on first time.

Form: 193-321

Merapi^p¹⁰³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: K S McHugh⁽⁵⁾| T: Michael Keady| OR: 58

25/1

Below par in first-time cheekpieces at Yarmouth when last seen in May. Proved consistent prior to that, however, and returns to action on a fair mark.

Cy Twombly^t,v¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Finlay Bassett⁽⁷⁾| T: J Mackie| OR: 56

50/1

Back to form from out of the blue when fourth at Wolverhampton in July but nowhere near that level at same course since. Best watched on turf debut.

Form: 098940

Little Tiger^p²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Laura Coughlan| T: W Stone| OR: 54| CD

10/3

C&D winner who was having just his second start this term when good sixth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (1¼m, AW) 28 days ago, never nearer. Figures off a handy mark and is one for the shortlist.

Form: 8630-46

Withoutfurtherado^p⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Liam Wright| T: P Charalambous & J Clutterbuck| OR: 52

40/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs and went with little promise over shorter trip at Yarmouth 9 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 75-0597

Charencey^t,v¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 8-13| J: Jack Callan| T: Ian Williams| OR: 50| C

11/4

Not scored since 2024 but he's knocking on the door, making the frame again when creditable third of 10 in minor event at Ffos Las (1¼m, good) 18 days ago. Visor back on. Likely to be in the mix again.

Form: 762233

Dinah Myte¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: William Pyle| T: J Gallagher| OR: 48| BF

11/2

Doubled her tally in 1m handicap at Newcastle in June and has largely run well in defeat since. Others look better treated, though.

Forecasts

Ricardo Phillips (5/2), Charencey (11/4), Little Tiger (10/3), Dinah Myte (11/2), Stipulation (7/1), Forca Timao (10/1), Knightmare (12/1), Jewel Maker (14/1), Merapi (25/1), Withoutfurtherado (40/1), Cy Twombly (50/1)

LITTLE TIGER has a good record here and caught the eye from an unpromising position at Lingfield last month. He could be the answer to the finale. Ricardo Phillips and Stipulation rate the principal dangers.
