Secret Return²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: Saffie Osborne⁽⁷⁾| T: R Brisland| OR: 79| D

10/1

1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Bath in July. Tenth of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good, 18/1) 24 days ago. May fall short again here facing a host of 3-y-os.

Form: 988-710

(7)

Dubai Quality⁴⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Cieren Fallon⁽³⁾| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 82| D

9/1

Built on sole 2-y-o start when landing a Kempton maiden (1m) in June. Seemingly not 100% when last of 4 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good, 13/2) 44 days ago and worth another chance.

Form: 2-14

(4)

Zezenia²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 80| BF

5/4

Lightly-raced winner who got off the mark at Haydock (7f) in July. 7/4, creditable third of 9 in handicap at York (7.9f, good to firm) 26 days ago, running on. One to consider.

Form: 2-313

(2)

Song of The Isles⁴³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Ellie Mackenzie⁽⁷⁾| T: H Main| OR: 73| C| D

9/2

Course winner. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good to soft, 8/1) 43 days ago, keeping on well. 6 lb higher now and this is a stronger contest.

Form: 1890-81

(5)

Khayyaal²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Dane O'Neill| T: Owen Burrows| OR: 77

10/1

Thrice-raced winner. 5/1, won 11-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 21 days ago, outbattling runner-up. Makes handicap debut.

Form: 851

(6)

Calatrava¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Rob Hornby| T: R M Beckett| OR: 72

10/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Sandown (8f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Still low mileage so not one to write off given she did show promise in novice events previously.

Form: 0-226

(3)

Willa^b⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R Hannon| OR: 71

13/2

13/2, bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f) 6 days ago, not ideally placed. Had a few shcances from this sort of mark but no reason why she won't give another good account.

Form: 034-444

Forecasts

Zezenia (5/4), Song of The Isles (9/2), Willa (13/2), Dubai Quality (9/1), Calatrava (10/1), Khayyaal (10/1), Secret Return (10/1)

ZEZENIA arrives on the back of a respectable third on handicap debut at York 26 days ago and could well be the way to go in another open-looking handicap. Dubai Quality is much better than she showed at Newbury last time and is fancied to bounce back, whilst Willa has had more racing than most but can be expected to give her running again.
