Followed up his improved success at Salisbury with a hat-trick of seconds in 1½m handicaps this summer. Type to bounce back from a rare poor effort at Doncaster last time, though others look slightly better off at the weights.

Form of penultimate second at Ascot has worked out well. Found plenty of improvement to notch a third career success (all from the front) in a Windsor handicap 10 days ago. Still looks well treated under a 6-lb penalty and can follow up for excellent connections.

Smooth-travelling sort who's finished runner-up on 3 of his 5 starts this season. Again unlucky to bump into one when beaten 7 lengths in a better race on the July Course here latest. Very much respected given his form figures (312123) on the Rowley Course.

Dual winner of staying handicaps on the all-weather. Ran well to hit the frame both previous starts at this course, however, he clearly wasn't right when pulled up (reported to have bled) at Kempton 7 weeks ago.

4/1
Lightly-raced 3-y-o who was very much on the up in 4 all-weather starts earlier this year. Value for extra when last seen completing a double on handicap debut at Lingfield in early-June. Since undergone a breathing operation and remains totally unexposed as he bids for a hat-trick on turf debut.

Fairly useful dual-purpose performer. Ran as well as could be expected when beaten 6 lengths (also met some trouble) in a higher grade at Doncaster last time. Should be competitive following a 2-lb reprieve.

Lightly-raced Sea The Moon gelding. Well positioned when making a winning start in handicaps at Epsom in July. Slightly awkward head carriage didn't prevent a follow up in another small-field event on July course last time. Needs more to land a hat-trick on first start against his elders.

Forecasts

King Of Berkshire (5/4), Charles Darnay (4/1), Zurna (6/1), First Officer (13/2), Astracornus (13/2), La Peregrina (8/1), Mr Freedom (11/1), Masterinthewoods (12/1), Double Meaning (12/1)

Verdict

This may well go to a 3-y-o, with KING OF BERKSHIRE taken to defy a penalty at the expense of turf debutant Charles Darnay. First Officer has a good record on this track and needs considering along with Astracornus, who tackles 1½m for the first time.
