Global Exceed^p,t²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: S A Gray| T: K Tutty| OR: 57

33/1

Latest win at Redcar (1m) in June. 10/1, below-form seventh of 11 in handicap at Beverley (10f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Often starts slowly. Not the most reliable.

Dutch Coed³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 9-9| J: J Fanning| T: T Davidson| OR: 57| CD

14/1

Did well for Nigel Tinkler last term, including a C&D win. Not in same form in 3 runs this term but starting to look well treated if switch of yards sparks him back to life. Keep an eye on in betting.

Form: 470-409

Najib^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: T Hamilton| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 51| BF

20/1

Third over 1m here in cheekpieces on penultimate start. Failed to fire in blinkers at Beverley 5 days later but the cheekpieces are back on now and he's one of the more likely types.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: P Mathers| T: R M Smith| OR: 51| C

20/1

Shaped as if back in form when sixth of 16 in handicap (14/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good) 14 days ago, doing too much too soon. Tongue strap on first time. Back on his last winning mark.

Buzz Lightyere^p¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 8-12| J: P Hanagan| T: J S Wainwright| OR: 45

125/1

Form: 9-63960

Forecasts

Ayr Poet (11/10), Flying Moon (7/2), Retirement Beckons (11/2), Perfect Soldier (12/1), Dutch Coed (14/1), Reaver (20/1), Najib (20/1), Lukoutoldmakezebak (20/1), Rosemay (33/1), Global Exceed (33/1), My Valentino (33/1), Prince Consort (66/1), Jazz Magic (80/1), Buzz Lightyere (125/1)

A race which to a large degree revolves around AYR POET who is unpenalised for last week's Ayr success and will be tough to beat if showing up in similar form. Flying Moon is still on a workable mark and can give Jim Goldie's charge most to think about ahead of Najib and Lukoutoldmakezebak.
