10/3

Smart veteran who has won conditions events at Haydock (6f) and Nottingham (5f) this summer. Should give another good account.

Tarboosh¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: P T Midgley| OR: 100| CD

7/2

Winner of this race in 2019 and ended 2020 with a Doncaster listed success. Hasn't scaled those heights this year but latest third in that same Doncaster listed event was better.

Brando⁴⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-0| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 111| D

5/6

A 9-y-o now but his latest 2 lengths fourth in a 6.5f Deauville Group 1 shows he's still really smart on his day. First outing over 5f since 2016 but he's clear on the figures in receipt of weight.

Forecasts

Brando (5/6), Danzeno (10/3), Tarboosh (7/2), Dubai Station (12/1)

The drop back to 5f has to be a bit of a worry for BRANDO but he's a clear form pick in receipt of 7 lb or more from his 3 rivals. 2019 winner Tarboosh was third in a Doncaster listed race recently and could be the one to follow him home.
