Gabrial The Devil³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 84| CD

4/1

Winner at Haydock off 2lb lower but below that level since. Handles any conditions but would need to be at his very best off this mark.

Form: 621304

(9)

Bossipop^b¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 84| CD

7/1

Twice a winner at Ripon this term but also boasts two course wins, including over this distance. Ran a blinder to be beaten a nose over a half furlong shorter here last time in a class 2. 2lb higher but likes it here and one to consider.

Form: 188982

(12)

Machree¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Harry Bentley| T: D Carroll| OR: 84

25/1

Speedy filly who is 5-19 to date. 4lb higher than last win but a good seventh in a class 2 here last time after being slowly away. Can be much quicker away but wide draw to overcome.

Form: 1-91057

(6)

Gracious John¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 83| D

8/1

Long losing run now stretches back to April 2018 despite vastly reduced mark. Would need to lift on his two runs for new yard to be in the mix here.

Form: 487958

Galloway Hills^p³⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Dylan Hogan⁽⁵⁾| T: Phillip Makin| OR: 81| D

25/1

Won a 6f handicap off 3lb lower at York in June, but has found life harder in three subsequent starts. Beginning to ease in the weights, but others appear to have stronger credentials all the same.

Form: 731569

(4)

Seen The Lyte^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Rowan Scott⁽³⁾| T: N Tinkler| OR: 79| D

8/1

Won over this trip last year and on same mark as winning over 5f at Haydock in June. Kept on well when fourth in a class 2 over 5.5f here last time and one to consider. Can be slowly away but drawn well.

Form: 164434

(13)

Pass The Gin³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: David Probert| T: A M Balding| OR: 81| CD

12/1

Both wins have come over this C&D and just 1lb higher than her July win. Can be inconsistent and disappointing the last twice. Needs to bounce back from a poor draw.

Form: 345105

Baby Steps²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Thomas Greatrex⁽⁵⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 79| D

10/1

Winner off 4lb lower at Wolverhampton in July and has been racing to a consistent level of late. Goes well here and can't be ruled out but has a poor draw.

Form: 023123

(3)

Private Matter^b²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: J Mitchell| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 73| D

9/2

On a losing run dating back to June 2018 (for Richard Fahey) despite a tumbling mark. Below that level in recent starts for new yard and would need to be back to his best.

Form: 478374

(8)

Gabrial The Tiger⁴¹

Age: 7| Weight: 8-10| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 72| CD

14/1

Five-time course winner; latest win here coming over 7f (best effort of the season; won three times). Very disappointing the last twice and drop in trip is a concern.

Form: 133189

(7)

Bellevarde⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: J Fanning| T: R J Price| OR: 71| D

20/1

Windsor winner over 5f off 2lb higher in April and this distance isn't a concern. Form has been largely below that since although ran well when close here in July. Others look stronger.

Form: 662744

(2)

Redrosezorro^h¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: Shelley Birkett| T: E J Alston| OR: 70| BF| D

9/2

In good form in a grade lower with a Carlisle win and a Catterick second, both over this distance. Drawn well for one who likes to go forwards but previous poor five visits here raises a concern.

Form: 038612

(1)

Peachey Carnehan^v¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-8| J: A Mullen| T: M Mullineaux| OR: 53| D

40/1

7lb lower than last win at Wolverhampton in March but this is a far higher grade. Recent form has been well below par and others preferred. Declared here on Friday.

Form: 804058

Forecasts

Gabrial The Devil (4/1), Private Matter (9/2), Redrosezorro (9/2), Bossipop (7/1), Seen The Lyte (8/1), Gracious John (8/1), Captain Jameson (8/1), Baby Steps (10/1), Pass The Gin (12/1), Gabrial The Tiger (14/1), Bellevarde (20/1), Machree (25/1), Galloway Hills (25/1), Peachey Carnehan (40/1)

A few ran in a strong contest over a half furlong shorter here recently and with BOSSIPOP only going down a nose, he has to be considered again at a track that suits so well. Seen The Lyte kept on well when fourth in the same contest and the extra trip should suit. Captain Jameson has conditions to suit barring the draw but still can't be ruled out.
