Royale Goodnight^h¹⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁵⁾| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 75| C

18/1

Successful over 7f here on debut. Only raced twice after for Daniel & Claire Kubler but good second in handicap at Southwell (11f) last spring. Well beaten for new yard after another 13 months off at Newbury (1¼m) in April, but this run should reveal more back down in trip.

Form: 18/2-0

Asteverdi^p⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: James Owen| OR: 75| D

7/1

Shaped encouragingly on seasonal/stable debut and soon left behind a lesser effort when third at Goodwood in June. Caught wide when down the field at Southwell last time, so no surprise to see her fare better for yard which tends to do well with new recruits.

Form: 50-3738

Longlai²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: George Baker| OR: 74| CD

10/1

Without a win last year (joined current yard after second outing), but took a step back in the right direction when making the frame at Newmarket (7f) on return. Failed to come on for that run when down the field here last month, though now gets a drop in class.

Form: 0070-48

Herculeus^p²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 73| D

15/2

Dual handicap winner at around 1m on turf last season but yet to fire during the current campaign, sixth of 9 over this C&D 3 weeks ago. Drops back in grade but others more persuasive at present.

Form: 00-9506

Happy Banner^p,t¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Marquand| T: E Walker| OR: 73| C

6/1

Novice winner over 7f here at 2 yrs. Yet to strike in handicaps but placed 3 times this season, before finding his run of good form coming to a halt at Windsor 11 days ago. He's not ruled out, though, back down in grade returned to all-weather.

Arctician²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: Alec Voikhansky| T: S Dow| OR: 73| C| D

18/1

Five-time course winner, successful twice over 7f here last year. After 9 weeks off, possibly needed the run when seventh of 11 in handicap at this track last month, so he's one to note having dropped below his last winning mark.

Form: 4-34787

Lady Manzor¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Jack Dace⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 72| C

9/1

All 3 wins on all-weather early last year, including on handicap debut at this course (7f). Arrives in good heart this season, making the frame for the fifth consecutive start when third of 6 at Lingfield (1m) 18 days ago.

Form: 644443

Freda¹¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley| T: P Phelan| OR: 72| CD

22/1

Off the mark at the fourth attempt in novice over this C&D in April. Matched that form sent handicapping when 2 lengths fifth of 12 here next time, though will need to find more from her current mark returning from nearly 4 months off.

Form: 23615

San Juanito²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rob Hornby| T: M Murphy| OR: 70

66/1

Successful twice at Wolverhampton last spring for Simon & Ed Crisford. However, he ended time with that yard on a low-key note and hasn't built on his stable debut effort in 3 starts this year.

Form: 007-908

(4)

Potomac River²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: J Mitchell| T: T Kent| OR: 70

7/2

Is still looking for a breakthrough success but arrives in good nick, sticking to his task well when third of 7 in handicap at Newmarket 20 days ago. Placed at Newcastle last year on only previous start on all-weather.

Form: 3-67643

Rhythm N Rock⁸⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: Kieren Fox| T: J Butler| OR: 70| CD

25/1

Posted his best effort for a while when ending long losing run over this C&D in May. Back up 4 lb in the weights, shaped as if still in good form when fifth of 13 at Wolverhampton the following month, denied a clear run.

Form: 42-6015

Gunfighter²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: D Egan| T: J Butler| OR: 68| BF

9/2

Took advantage of his reduced mark when scoring at Southwell (7f) in July. Hasn't quite been able to match that level in 2 starts since, though, fifth of 11 at Lingfield 20 days ago.

Form: 0-79175

Spirit Lead Me^p⁸⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Finley Marsh| T: R Hughes| OR: 65| CD

8/1

Back-to-back winner on the all-weather last autumn, over 7f at this course on the first occasion. Has struggled for form this year, though, again finishing well held at Salisbury when last seen in June.

Forecasts

Potomac River (7/2), Gunfighter (9/2), Between Me And U (5/1), Happy Banner (6/1), Asteverdi (7/1), Herculeus (15/2), Spirit Lead Me (8/1), Lady Manzor (9/1), Longlai (10/1), Royale Goodnight (18/1), Arctician (18/1), Freda (22/1), Rhythm N Rock (25/1), San Juanito (66/1)

BETWEEN ME AND U proved better than ever when completing the hat-trick at Carlisle 3 weeks ago, showing a good attitude, and he is taken to add to his tally in current form. Heading the list of dangers is 5-time course winner Arctician having dropped to a handy mark, with Asteverdi completing the shortlist.
