Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Lauren Young⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 75| C| D

4/1

Course winner who's on a lengthy losing run but went very close in Queen Mothers Cup at York in June. Took a step back in the right direction when fifth at Ayr just 4 days ago. Takes a marked drop in grade and can't be discounted if building on that.

Helmsley^t⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Jason Hart| T: I Furtado| OR: 74

16/1

Backed up the promise of recent outings in first-time tongue strap when beaten only by a bang-in-form opponent at Chester in June. Failed to repeat that at Beverley next time. Well held in novice on hurdling debut at Sedgefield last week. Goes well in soft conditions and market probably best guide.

Perseus Way¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-13| J: Rowan Scott| T: T Davidson| OR: 73| C

9/2

Completed a cross-code hat-trick when bolting up at Hexham in June and is a perfect 2 from 2 on the Flat this season, landing 12-runner handicap over 13f at this course by neck from Spanish Hustle last time. Has won off a higher mark in the past so has to merit consideration.

Rewired¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: J Garritty| T: T Davidson| OR: 73

100/1

Won twice over hurdles at the beginning of last year. Off 16 months and found things happening too quickly when behind over an inadequate trip on return at Carlisle 12 days ago. Will be suited by this test though others make more appeal.

Sure And Stedfast⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Greg Fairley| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 72

14/1

Had been threatening to come good this season and posted a career-best effort when landing 6-runner handicap at Musselburgh (13f, good to firm) last month. More required again from a career-high mark.

Yafreh^p1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Warren Fentiman⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 75

12/1

Disappointed on last 2 starts after finishing runner-up on his previous couple of runs, not looking the most enthusiastic. Goes back up in trip and looks the type who will benefit from the fitting of the first-time cheekpieces.

Florida Dreams¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: K Stott| T: A M Thomson| OR: 68

12/1

Grade 2 bumper winner at start of career. Fair form on first 2 starts switched to the Flat this summer. Failed to get back on the up on handicap debut upped to 2m last time. Needs to bounce back without the headgear this time.

Unchartedterritory²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 74

7/2

Much improved when opening account in 9f Carlisle handicap (soft) in June. Quickly back to form when 1¼ lengths second of 8 to Valley Of Flowers in handicap at Beverley (1½m, heavy, 6/1) 23 days ago. Makes the shortlist and would appreciate any further rain.

Thequietman^h⁸⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Amie Waugh⁽³⁾| T: S Waugh| OR: 66

125/1

Hadn't gone on from a promising stable debut for David O'Meara last winter and was pulled up at Doncaster when last seen in June. Can only be watched on first run for yard having been sold for 2,000 gns since.

Form: 3-5998P

Northern Brave^p1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 73| BF

9/1

Is well proven in the mud, winning novice at Ayr last winter and ran well when third in heavy-ground handicap at Beverley (1½m, heavy) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces go on for the first time and he's another that would appreciate more rain.

Form: 1-07423

Fans Favourite^p¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: O J Orr| T: H Palmer| OR: 72

7/1

Has built a remarkable record with all 3 wins this season coming in the mud, latest at Beverley last month by neck from Rapide Vega. Can have his last run at Doncaster excused after an early stumble left him on the back foot. One to take seriously with conditions likely to be in his favour.

Spanish Hustle¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 64| CD

15/2

Six-time course winner. Ran best race this season with Mulrennan back in the saddle when neck second here earlier in the month, closing all way to the line. Is very well handicapped at present and should give another good account.

Forecasts

Unchartedterritory (7/2), Humble Spark (4/1), Perseus Way (9/2), Fans Favourite (7/1), Spanish Hustle (15/2), Northern Brave (9/1), Florida Dreams (12/1), Yafreh (12/1), Sure And Stedfast (14/1), Helmsley (16/1), Rewired (100/1), Thequietman (125/1)

Quite an open race but the vote goes to FANS FAVOURITE who had excuses last time and goes very well in soft conditions. Spanish Hustle looks to be coming to the boil based on his latest outing and can go well again, with Unchartedterritory also entitled to be in the mix. Northern Brave and Perseus Way are others to consider.
