Redbud Sixteen¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Colin Keane| T: Charlie Pike| OR: 85| C

6/1

Got off the mark at Salisbury (1¼m) and easily followed up over 11f here later in June. Right back on track after a break with second of 7 in handicap at Salisbury (1¼m, good to soft) 15 days ago, especially as ridden aggressively. Very much one to consider on her first go at this trip.

Form: 3-81172

15/2

Resumed winning ways at Kempton (1½m) in August and backed it up with a solid second of 6 in seller at Goodwood (11f, soft) 19 days ago. Needs considering.

Nightsinwhitesatin^p¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: R L Moore| T: E Bethell| OR: 77| C

10/3

Course winner last August. In the frame on all 6 starts (runner-up 4 times) this season, coming in a creditable fourth of 13 at Haydock (1¼m, good to soft) last time. Ought to be thereabouts once more.

Counter Intuitive³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Shoemark| T: E Walker| OR: 81| D

18/1

Frankel filly who looked well on the up when bagging novice at Thirsk and handicap at Newmarket (both over 1½m) this summer. Came in last of 7 at Salisbury (1½m, good) last time but is well worth another chance.

Form: 8-6117

Bintknight²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: Harry Charlton| OR: 79

11/2

Quickly doubled her tally on handicap bow at Lingfield (1¼m) in August. Not seen to ideal effect under a patient ride when a close fourth of 8 to Gloryous at Kempton (1½m) last time. Remains likely capable of better and not taken lightly here.

Hello Friend³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Callum Rodriguez| T: K R Burke| OR: 79

5/1

Frankel filly made the frame in novices on her first 3 starts before taking a step forward on her handicap debut when beaten a nose in 5-runner event at Newmarket (1¾m, good) last month. Well in the mix with further progress on the cards.

Form: 2242

Littlecote¹²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding| OR: 75| D

7/2

Camelot filly who ended a run of 3 second placings with success in 6-runner novice at Newcastle (1½m) in May. Off since but she remains with potential now going handicapping.

Form: 5-2221

Glenna²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Jack Callan| T: T Ward| OR: 70

11/1

Opened her account at Windsor (11.5f) in June and in good nick since, not enjoying the smoothest of passages when third in handicap at Goodwood (1½m, good) 3 weeks ago. Not out of things.

Forecasts

Nightsinwhitesatin (10/3), Littlecote (7/2), Lady Magu (7/2), Hello Friend (5/1), Bintknight (11/2), Redbud Sixteen (6/1), Gloryous (15/2), Aphrodite Spirit (8/1), Glenna (11/1), Counter Intuitive (18/1), Miss Tonnerre (20/1), Autumn's Breeze (33/1)

A few of these fillies bring potential but it's hard to side against LADY MAGU who scored in great style on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton and can return from a break to complete her hat-trick. Redbud Sixteen could emerge as the main threat to Roger Varian's filly with this step up in trip a likely plus, although Bintknight and Aphrodite Spirit can also play a prominent role.
