(7)

Honourbound¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Hayley Turner| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 59

10/1

Signs of ability in four starts so far but more needed than when finishing fifth over an extended 1m1f at Wolverhampton on handicap debut recently.

Form: 0665

(12)

Powerful Society⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: William Cox⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs R Ford| OR: 57

25/1

Twice a winner at two and has run well in a number of handicaps this year including when third over an extended 1m3f at Windsor (good-to-firm) last month. Worth a check in the market.

Noble Gesture¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: David Egan| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 54

Makin It⁵⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: M Harley| T: W J Knight| OR: 54

9/2

Making his first start since being gelded when finishing 7L fourth over 1m2f at Chepstow (good-to-firm) earlier this month. Slowly away that day and shapes as if this step up in distance will suit.

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: S De Sousa| T: P Phelan| OR: 48

TWISTER represents a useful yard and can go one better than when finishing runner-up over C&D last time out by taking this three-year-old handicap. The selection remains open to improvement and can see off his rivals here with Hot Off The Press capable of claiming second following a good run on turf last time. Top weight Gemini can finish third on her first AW start.
