Swiss Pride^p¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Marco Ghiani⁽⁵⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 72| CD

13/2

Last three wins were all in claimers and generally struggles in handicaps company though the return to this shorter trip where he has done all his winning is in his favour.

Form: 3-16730

Fromnowon¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 74| D

6/1

Off the mark in a weak novice at Windsor, and Newbury run last time over 7f can be ignored as she didn't see any daylight when trying to throw down a challenge. May have more to come.

Form: 23-218

(3)

Lethal Angel^t1¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: R Kingscote| T: S C Williams| OR: 70| D

14/1

Equally effective at 5 and 6f and on turf or AW. Working her way back to form since comeback run in June and Ascot fourth last week was in a better race. Tongue-tie now tried.

Form: 451-044

(10)

Bayar¹⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: A Kirby| T: C G Cox| OR: 72

3/1

Four placed efforts from six career runs and his Wolverhampton second of 13 last time was best effort to date. Repeat of that off the same mark must put him in with a sound chance.

Form: 93-3392

(6)

London Calling^b1²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Shoemark| T: R Spencer| OR: 72

11/1

Sole win was over 7f at Kempton in January but has raced too freely since and not looking then easiest ride. Blinkers now replace cheekpieces which have been tried last two runs and drop in trip may now help.

Form: 34-1595

(4)

Garth Rockett^p,t²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Murphy| OR: 66| CD

8/1

Seven wins (five here) from 21 AW runs is a cracking record and now chasing a C&D hat-trick under this jockey. Career high mark now but hard to leave out of calculations in current mood.

Form: 136-511

(7)

You Don't Own Me^b¹⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Charles Bishop| T: J Tuite| OR: 70| BF| D

50/1

In good heart when last seen in the spring without her normal blinkers on. They are back on today but is now 5lb above Kempton win in March and fitness has to be taken on trust.

Form: 4-16013

(8)

Requited²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Morrison| OR: 65| C| D

14/1

Course winner this time last year and much better than final placings indicate on comeback run here last month (behind Garth Rockett) having been carried very wide on the final bend. Dropped 2lb and looks one for the short list.

Form: 1838-70

Ahorsecalledwanda^p1¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: W Buick| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 68| CD

9/2

Three good runs, including a win here in the winter and while she hasn't built on that, the return to this venue looks a plus and handicapper has given her a chance with further drop in weights.

Form: 312555

(2)

Lequinto²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: B Doyle| T: A W Carroll| OR: 67| D

11/1

Never in the hunt from a bad draw on first run since coming from Ireland but won at this trip at Dundalk and is capable of better. Market should prove a guide as to what is expected.

Forecasts

Bayar (3/1), Ahorsecalledwanda (9/2), Fromnowon (6/1), Swiss Pride (13/2), Garth Rockett (8/1), London Calling (11/1), Lequinto (11/1), Buy Me Back (12/1), Zac Brown (12/1), Requited (14/1), Lethal Angel (14/1), You Don't Own Me (50/1)

REQUITED didn't get the run of the race here last time but should be fitter and can leave that form behind. There are stacks of dangers in an open race and they are headed by the hat-trick seeking Garth Rockett who comes here in the form of his life, and Lethal Angel who will find this more to her liking after Ascot last week.
