Lord Riddiford¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Jason Hart| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 90| BF| D

2/1

Last win came back at Chelmsford in June and took a step in the right direction when narrow second at that track (5f) earlier this month. Has fallen back to a workable mark so must be considered.

Form: 456502

Spoof^h²³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: K Shoemark| T: C Hills| OR: 87| D

9/1

On a losing streak which dates back to May 2018 and hasn't threatened this season. Latest 5L seventh at Sandown (5f) means there is work to do.

Form: 7-47377

(7)

Free Love¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Theodore Ladd⁽⁵⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 88| D

11/1

Already a three-time winner this season and put behind some disappointing performances with 1L third over C&D last time. Could be vulnerable off current mark however.

Form: 961083

Four Wheel Drive^p¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: G Lee| T: D H Brown| OR: 87| D

8/1

In fine form this season, landing four contests and not been out of the first three. Defied hike in the weights to land Thirsk handicap (5f) by a neck and hasn't been penalised too harshly for that. The one to beat.

Form: 211311

Pink Flamingo⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Cieren Fallon⁽³⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 83| BF| D

5/1

Usually runs to her mark and put up a respectable performance with narrow second at Bath (5f) on his latest start. Off career-high mark this time so slightly more improvement needed.

Form: 512332

(8)

Shamshon⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 8-12| J: Marco Ghiani⁽⁷⁾| T: S C Williams| OR: 81| D

6/1

Winner off 1lb lower at Newmarket in July but well held since, including fourth in 5f Bath handicap last time out. Back to a workable mark for this however and has place claims.

Form: 331074

Benny And The Jets²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Tom Marquand| T: S Kirk| OR: 81

7/2

Two wins form six runs this year, with the latest coming at Nottingham in May. Not disgraced in 5f Windsor handicap last time and shouldn't be discounted on that evidence.

Form: 161604

Forecasts

Lord Riddiford (2/1), Benny And The Jets (7/2), Pink Flamingo (5/1), Shamshon (6/1), Four Wheel Drive (8/1), Spoof (9/1), Free Love (11/1), Secretinthepark (20/1)

FOUR WHEEL DRIVE has been in flying form this season and possesses an incredibly progressive profile. The plenty proved to be no issue last time out and it should be that same case again in a winnable contest. Pink Flamingo has been tremendously consistent this season but usually finds one too good in these types of contests while the likes of Shamshon and Lord Riddiford have fallen back to workable marks but need to bounce back from their recent efforts.
