Age: 3| Weight: 10-0| J: Mark Winn| T: D O'Meara| OR: 67| D

7/4

Was proving consistent rather than progressive until taking a big step forward when off the mark in good style at Redcar last week, settling the race in a matter of strides. Obvious claims under a penalty.

Sweet Horizon^b⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon| T: Tom Clover| OR: 68

9/1

Left debut form well behind fitted with headgear when second of 5 in novice at Nottingham. Disappointed at Windsor next time but steady pace might have been against her, so worth another chance on handicap bow.

Form: 823

Sterling Fortune¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: H Crouch| T: J Tate| OR: 67

22/1

Ran her best race yet when fourth at Wolverhampton on handicap bow 2 weeks ago but the fact she was beaten almost 3 lengths proves she still has work to do off this sort of mark.

15/2

Matched the pick of her form making handicap debut when fourth at Kempton last week on first start for this yard after 4 months off. Remains with potential now stepping up in trip.

Form: 5384

Mystic Music¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Charlie Tucker⁽⁷⁾| T: A M Balding| OR: 63

20/1

Much improved after 4 months off/switched to turf when finishing second in a Windsor maiden last month. Disappointed back on the all-weather 2 weeks ago but return to turf/further looks a positive now handicapping.

Mohaab¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: W Muir & C Grassick| OR: 62| D

9/2

Wide-margin winner at Nottingham (good to soft) in May. Unable to defy revised mark since but easier conditions would probably be in her favour here.

Albertini Star²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A King| OR: 62

9/2

Placed all 3 starts in handicaps this summer but she's proving consistent rather than progressive and she needs to find a little bit more.

Form: 860-233

Topathemorning¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 58

33/1

Probably flattered on her sole 2-y-o start given her struggles this year.

Form: 6-5888

Champagne Beau¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Callum Hutchinson| T: P R Chamings| OR: 57

28/1

Made a bit more of an impact when mid-field at Windsor on handicap bow last time but she was still 10 lengths off the winner having again made a mess of the start, while this drop back in trip looks another negative.

Form: 9876

Pangbourne¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Owen Lewis⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 56

8/1

Showed promise on all-weather earlier this year and hasn't fared at all badly switched to turf subsequently, excellent third at Ffos Las latest. Stiffer track here should suit.

Florizelle²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Rob Hornby| T: E Smyth-Osbourne| OR: 56

125/1

Well held in novices and showed nothing on handicap bow last month. Up in trip.

Form: 5688

Forecasts

Talitha Rouge (7/4), Albertini Star (9/2), Mohaab (9/2), Mmmbop (15/2), Pangbourne (8/1), Sweet Horizon (9/1), Mystic Music (20/1), Sterling Fortune (22/1), Champagne Beau (28/1), Topathemorning (33/1), Florizelle (125/1)

TALITHA ROUGE looks capable of defying a penalty given how much she had in hand when off the mark at Redcar last week. Mmmbop remains with potential stepping up in trip on her second start for this yard so is next best ahead of Sweet Horizon and Mystic Music.
