Melodical¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Ashley Lewis⁽³⁾| T: E Walker| OR: 58

Returned from a 10-month absence in early August but hasn't made much impact in handicaps since, finishing fifth of 11 here 16 days ago. This step up in trip may suit on breeding, though, and now has the assistance of a good-value claimer.

Form: 435-65

Aurelune¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Beasley| T: R A Fahey| OR: 58

Improved last 2 starts, coming third at Leicester in July then second of 10 at Hamilton 10 days ago. Another step forward back on all-weather could see her involved again.

Form: 536732

Irish Fusilier¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Paddy Bradley| T: G & J Moore| OR: 57

Promise as a juvenile but not much to recommend in handicaps either start this year. Needs the step up to 1m to bring about some progress.

Form: 954-70

Creciente^p³³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Darragh Keenan| T: B R Millman| OR: 55

Off the mark on turf here over 7f in late July then beaten a nose in early August. Continued in form when third of 10 in handicap at Windsor over this trip 33 days ago, racing freely. Should prove competitive once more if as effective on all-weather.

Form: 046123

Henfield^v1²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: L Morris| T: K Jewell| OR: 51| CD

Won classified race over C&D in July before fourth of 7 in handicap here 25 days ago. Often starts slowly and needs a bit more tried in a first-time visor here.

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Joey Haynes| T: Adam Kirby| OR: 45

Yet to show much in 6 starts, most recently seventh of 8 in a classified stakes at Ffos Las in June. Makes handicap/all-weather debut with a lot more required returning from 74 days off.

Form: 060597

Cortado Girl⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Ray Dawson| T: S Pearce| OR: 45

Poetic Grace^b²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Alice Bond⁽⁵⁾| T: C Allen| OR: 45

Limited impact to date and she looks out of her depth even at this lowly level.

Form: 443556

Forecasts

Yazoo (13/8), Aurelune (5/1), Henfield (13/2), Creciente (7/1), Ernie Mccrew (8/1), Melodical (10/1), Mokata (16/1), Poetic Grace (16/1), Irish Fusilier (20/1), Cortado Girl (25/1)

YAZOO ran out a clear-cut winner on handicap debut at Wolverhampton just 5 days ago, showing no sign of previous quirks, and is fancied to build on that breakthrough despite the quick turnaround under a penalty. Creciente continues in good heart and returns to Lingfield, though on the all-weather this time, whilst Aurelune confirmed her improvement when second at Hamilton 10 days ago and should take a hand.
