In good form this year winning five times already including over 5f at Ffos Las (good) last month. Finished third on heavy ground off this mark at Nottingham last time out and one to note in this contest.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Joshua Bryan⁽⁵⁾| T: A Bailey| OR: 74| D

11/4

Winner over 5f at Leicester (good-to-firm) on his penultimate outing and unsuited by the step up to 6f at Yarmouth (good) when only fourth subsequently. Return to this trip should suit and has a useful apprentice booked to ride today.

25/1

Impressive winner over 5f at Lingfield (good) in June last year but had just two subsequent starts most recently when seventh of nine at Brighton (good-to-firm) over an extended mile nearly a year ago. Making her seasonal and stable debut here.

9/4

Best effort in three runs since joining this yard came when finishing second of seven over this C&D on good-to-soft ground last time out. Races off the same mark today and an interesting runner here.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: S J Cummins⁽⁷⁾| T: J Tuite| OR: 71| D

5/1

Ran well when finishing third over 5f at Ffos Las (good) on his penultimate outing and a respectable effort when a close fourth on good-to-soft going over this C&D subsequently. Races off a mark 5lb higher than when winning at Lingfield in May.

Forecasts

Major Valentine (2/1), Wiley Post (9/4), Vimy Ridge (11/4), Zipedeedodah (5/1), Pucon (25/1)

VIMY RIDGE has been contesting amateur riders contests of late winning on his penultimate outing in that sphere. The selection ran well last time out and can take this with the useful apprentice Joshua Bryan taking the ride today. Wiley Post ran well when runner-up here last time but the form of his yard is a concern here while Major Valentine, who is seeking his ninth career victory today can claim third.
