IDP Supporting Care Through Better Purchasing Handicap (Div 1)

3YO plus | Class 5 | 1m | 13 Runners | Turf

(11)

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: D Nolan| T: I Furtado| OR: 75| D

Dual winner who notched a third runner-up finish of the year when going close at Pontefract (1m) in May. Disappointed when beaten 8¾ lengths over the same C&D subsequently. Still needs considering in a slightly lesser grade following 11 weeks away.

It'sneverjustone¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: K Stott| T: D Loughnane| OR: 74

Completed 7f handicap double at the Galway Festival last summer. Showed that ability remained when fourth on first couple of starts this season. Gone off the boil since, though at least warrants a market check on a rare start in Class 5 company.

Form: 5-44600

Orangesandlemons^p¹⁰⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D Tudhope| T: E Bethell| OR: 73| D

Doubled her tally in much better company at Nottingham last October. Hasn't gone on from her reappearance this year, but booking of Daniel Tudhope catches the eye on return from 3-month absence (has gone well fresh).

Form: 615-389

Atmosphere^v¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Saffie Osborne| T: R Spencer| OR: 72| D

Enthusiastic sort who was successful 3 times during 2025. Knocking on the door with back-to-back seconds at Kempton over the spring. Did all he could when 9¼ lengths third at Ascot (good) last time, without scaling the heights of his all-weather form. Has run well on soft ground previously.

Form: 3-32253

Havana Touch²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: Mikey Sheehy| T: J Butler| OR: 72| D

In-form 5-y-o who wasn't beaten far on just his third turf start at Ripon in June. Subsequently notched a fourth all-weather win in this grade at Kempton and confirmed he's better than ever when runner-up at Lingfield last time. Could be poised to land a first victory on this surface.

Form: 212612

Runninsonofagun^b⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Jason Hart| T: T Davidson| OR: 71| CD

Front runner who enhanced a good course record when scoring over C&D in July. Justified support to land a second success under the returning Jason Hart at Musselburgh the following month. Some mitigation for rare poor effort at Carlisle latest and probably worth another chance.

Form: 322610

Calyxoh^b¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-10| J: Paddy Bradley| T: P Morris| OR: 71

Untrustworthy sort. Only beaten 3 lengths in this grade at Newmarket on penultimate start. Seemed to down tools in a lady amateur riders race at Ascot last time. Remains to be seen if he's on a going day in change of headgear, with more experienced jockey back in the plate.

Form: 730430

Tarmonbarry Kid¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 74| D

Lightly-raced 3-y-o who improved a chunk make it 2 wins in 3 starts at Beverley (8.5f, heavy) last time, when clearly at home on the ground (has also won on good). Still early days in handicaps and a 4-lb rise hardly looks insurmountable.

Form: 35-6131

(8)

Cisco Disco³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: R M Smith| OR: 68| CD

Quirky sort who hasn't fired since completing a course hat-trick last autumn. At least fared better than previously this season when beaten 6¼ lengths here last time (1¼m, good). Now 3 lb below his latest winning mark and forecast rain will only help his chances.

Form: 1-87067

(5)

Sanafi Zabeel²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 68| BF| D

Landed second all-the-way Hamilton win of a productive first season with Jim Goldie at Hamilton last month. Still in good heart when 4 lengths third at Catterick since, though remains on a career-high mark.

Form: 334513

(12)

Second Fiddle¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 65| D

Successful 6 times in the second half of last year (5 of those wins at Newcastle). Has been running consistently well without getting her head in front recently, finishing ½-length second in Newcastle handicap on return to all-weather last time. Should give another good account.

Form: 323342

(3)

Perfidia^p⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 61| D

Notched a second win of the season when making all at Nottingham in June. Hit and miss since, beaten just under 7 lengths at Redcar last time. Back up in grade here, too.

Form: 122730

Keats House^b1¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-11| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 58| D

Well-treated on his form in 3-y-o handicaps last year, however, he fared no better than on recent starts when failing to justify support at Hamilton last time (beaten 6½ lengths). Hopes of a revival pinned on addition of first-time blinkers (visor didn't have the desired effect previously).

Forecasts

Havana Touch (7/2), Tarmonbarry Kid (4/1), Atmosphere (7/1), Second Fiddle (8/1), Selection (10/1), Runninsonofagun (10/1), Sanafi Zabeel (10/1), Calyxoh (12/1), It'sneverjustone (14/1), Keats House (16/1), Orangesandlemons (16/1), Perfidia (20/1), Cisco Disco (25/1)

HAVANA TOUCH has been in the form of his life on the all-weather recently. He's the one to beat if translating that to turf at the fourth time of asking, with improving 3-y-o Tarmonbarry Kid likely to prove a serious danger. Orangesandlemons, Second Fiddle and Runninsonofagun are others to consider in a competitive handicap.
