Selected odds by:

On The Meter^p1²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Brendan Powell| T: D G Bridgwater

5/1

Fair form in bumpers and has shown a bit in 2 runs over hurdles 2 years apart, fading when back from another wind op for new yard at Stratford 4 weeks ago. Cheekpieces go on now.

Form: 2424/5

Alioski^t1¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Paul O'Brien⁽³⁾| T: G Brown

33/1

Modest Flat winner who has shown a little in 2 runs over hurdles at Worcester at up to 23f. Tongue tie fitted now.

Form: 54

Galata Bridge¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Sam Twiston-Davies| T: Dr R D P Newland| BF

2/7

Useful Flat performer (including for this yard) and made a promising start in this sphere when a well-backed second at Worcester, pulling clear of the rest. More to come and should take the beating.

Form: 2

Mickey Drippin¹⁸⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Matthew Batchelor| T: C Poulton

125/1

From a pretty good jumps family but has looked just a poor maiden on the Flat.

Splinter⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-2| J: Kielan Woods| T: A M Hales| OR: 106

9/2

Fair Flat winner who was a good second in 2m novice hurdle at Southwell in July. Claims on that form, though he found little at Bangor next time and is back from a break.

Form: 9-424

Carole's Tzarina^b1,t³²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: J M Quinlan| T: Miss A Murphy

28/1

Displayed some promise in bumpers earlier in the year, but showed very little sent hurdling after 5 months off/another wind op at Worcester 4 weeks ago. Blinkers go on.

Form: 432-7

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: M Goldstein| T: Miss S West

66/1

Little impact on Flat AW for Mick Channon in first half of 2020.

Form:

City Escape¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 10-9| J: Nick Scholfield| T: Mrs S J Humphrey

50/1

Fair maiden on Flat but didn't seem to take to hurdling at Fontwell recently, mistakes and never on terms.

Form: 4

Forecasts

Galata Bridge (2/7), Splinter (9/2), On The Meter (5/1), Carole's Tzarina (28/1), Alioski (33/1), City Escape (50/1), Anyonewhohadaheart (66/1), Mickey Drippin (125/1)

Hard to see past GALATA BRIDGE after his promising debut in this sphere at Worcester recently. There could be plenty more to come in this game from this very well-bred useful Flat performer. Splinter is the obvious choice for the forecast.
