Grey Britain¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Darragh Keenan⁽⁵⁾| T: J Ryan| OR: 101

8/1

Defied odds of 50-1 when landing a big prize at Newmarket in May and soft ground may not have suited on two subsequent starts. Bit to prove on the AW, but has the talent to play a big role in this company.

Form: 900140

(6)

Goring^v¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 100

16/1

Good record of four wins from nine starts on the AW. All those wins have been achieved over 1m, however, so he has stamina to prove over this longer trip.

Form: 130006

(5)

Glendevon²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: S W Kelly| T: R Hughes| OR: 102| BF

11/4

Good efforts to finish second on last two starts at Chelmsford following a gelding operation. Few miles on the clock and likely to be involved despite 2lb rise.

Form: 344822

Graffiti Master²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: R Havlin| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 102

4/1

Lightly-raced gelding who probably needed the run when well held at Newmarket earlier this month. Only success came on the AW at Kempton and last year's third to Kew Gardens reads well. Unexposed and interesting..

Form: 413-45

Azzeccagarbugli^p⁴³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: M M Monaghan| T: M Botti| OR: 95

14/1

Prolific winner in Italy, but still looking for his first win in this country. Not disgraced in some decent contests, however, and falling mark and longer trip offer hope.

Form: 414938

Greatest Journey¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 95| CD

5/1

Has won four of his 10 races on the AW, but latest effort at Chelmsford was disappointing. Handicap mark looks stiff.

Form: 62207V

Contrast⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Nathan Evans| T: Samantha & Jacqueline Coward| OR: 93

40/1

First run for this yard since leaving Richard Hannon's stable when well down the field at Nottingham last month. That was his first run since wind surgery, however, and he may do better this time.

Form: 139770

The Throstles³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: J F Egan| T: K Frost| OR: 87| CD

11/1

Loves this C&D as he showed when reeling off a hat-trick of wins during the summer. Disappointing return to turf at Doncaster last month is best forgotten and he cannot be written off despite career-high mark.

Form: 481110

(10)

Keswick^t⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: Andrew Breslin⁽⁵⁾| T: H Main| OR: 83| BF| CD

5/1

Successful over C&D last month, but not so good when a beaten favourite at Lingfield last time. Not ruled out, but needs more against these rivals.

Form: 761013

Mythical Madness¹¹

Weight: 9-7| Age: 7

T: D O'Meara J: David Probert

Forecasts

Glendevon (11/4), Graffiti Master (4/1), Greatest Journey (5/1), Keswick (5/1), Mythical Madness (13/2), Grey Britain (8/1), The Throstles (11/1), Azzeccagarbugli (14/1), Goring (16/1), Contrast (40/1)

Given his record over C&D, The Throstles has to be considered despite his career-high mark. Mythical Madness ran well last time and can get involved along with Glendevon, Goring and Grey Britain. but the one with most scope for improvement could well be GRAFFITI MASTER, who is 1-1 on the AW and will be sharper for a recent run on turf.
