(10)

Jacko¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee⁽³⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 74

8/1

Has showed some promise in his four career starts but disappointed a little on handicap debut at Wolverhampton last time out. Dropped 2lb but needs to improve and draw not ideal.

Form: 5833

(6)

Gabrial The One²³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: G Lee| T: R A Fahey| OR: 73| BF

4/1

Still a maiden after five starts but went close at Chester two runs back when only beaten narrowly. Failed to back that up back at that course next time when favourite but gives the impression the step up in trip will suit here.

Form: 55323

(9)

Camelot Rakti¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-6| J: D Allan| T: J Tate| OR: 73

9/1

Improved from maiden/novice company when making handicap debut at Kempton in September, finishing a promising fourth of 14 and stepped up on that with a fine win at Wolverhampton. 8lb higher now but well bred and should continue to progress.

Form: 78041

(12)

Manton Warrior²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Dane O'Neill| T: B J Meehan| OR: 72

33/1

Well beaten on each of his three starts to date. Needs to learn to settle better before he's of interest and widest draw not ideal for handicap debut.

Form: 708

(3)

Golden Parade²⁸

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Rachel Richardson| T: T D Easterby| OR: 72

8/1

Best effort to date when staying on second at Carlisle (6f) in August, but disappointed last time at Hamilton. Steps up in trip on handicap debut and the market should reveal expectations.

Form: 726

(4)

Gates Of Horn¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 72

16/1

Has gone off at a big price on each of his three starts but he improved for the step up in trip when fourth of 11 at Redcar last time. Gets an extra furlong here and interesting to see what the market makes of him on handicap debut.

Form: 674

(1)

Tony Chestnut¹⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-4| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: P W Chapple-Hyam| OR: 71

4/1

Unplaced on each of his four starts including here last time out. Drops back in trip and the jockey booking catches the eye but needs to improve.

Form: 5373

(2)

Ollivander²⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 70

14/1

Has shown promise on each of his three starts and not beaten far in a maiden here last time over 6f. Gives the impression this longer trip could be in his favour and he's an interesting contender.

Form: 547

(8)

Conundrum²¹

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: J Garritty| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 68

12/1

Well beaten on each of his three runs before showing minor improvement on handicap debut at Catterick earlier in the month. More needed up in trip here.

Form: 5574

(7)

Firewater^p²⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-13| J: T Hamilton| T: R A Fahey| OR: 66| D

6/1

Unplaced on each of his first six starts but improved markedly last time out to win at Ayr in good style. Well suited to plenty of cut in the ground and he's the first string on jockey bookings.

Form: 465441

(5)

Freedom And Wheat^b1¹⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 8-5| J: J F Egan| T: B G Powell| OR: 58

10/1

Well beaten in each of his first four starts but showed minor improvement after a mid season in absence at Wolverhampton last time. Needs to improve for first-time blinkers here.

Form: 04875

Forecasts

Gabrial The One (4/1), Tony Chestnut (4/1), Firewater (6/1), Jacko (8/1), Golden Parade (8/1), Camelot Rakti (9/1), Freedom And Wheat (10/1), Conundrum (12/1), Ollivander (14/1), Prince Llyr (14/1), Gates Of Horn (16/1), Manton Warrior (33/1)

CAMELOT RAKTI was impressive last time out and the filly is a well bred sort who remains capable of better from her revised handicap mark. Firewater is the most appealing of Richard Fahey's runners and the colt justified favouritism at Ayr last time out in good fashion. Any money for Golden Parade should be noted on handicap debut here.
