Chateau D'if¹⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Luke Catton⁽³⁾| T: D Menuisier| OR: 76| D

18/1

Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Doncaster (7f, soft), not ideally placed. Off 143 days. Place possibilities if fully tuned-up for this assignment.

Form: 51-674

(10)

May Night³²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Callum Hutchinson⁽³⁾| T: A M Balding| OR: 75| D

11/1

Latest win at Kempton in March. 12/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Ascot (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago. That form looks solid and should be in the mix if coping with conditions.

Form: 13-1223

(6)

Hot Summer²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Elisha Whittington| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 70

40/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2020. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm, 25/1) 22 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more.

Form: 702450

Onaraggatip^v⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Ellie Mackenzie| T: B R Millman| OR: 72

10/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2020. 5/1, good third of 10 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, good to soft) 9 days ago, running on late. Each-way shout.

Form: 826333

(11)

Yorkshire Pirlo^p⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Tyler Heard| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 71WS

14/1

22/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 42 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and since undergone wind surgery. Needs to bounce back in a major way.

Form: 61-7587

(2)

Rectory Road³³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Alice Bond⁽⁵⁾| T: J Ferguson| OR: 68| BF| D

13/2

Latest win at Bath in August. 5/2, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (8f, good) 33 days ago, lost all chance at start. Vulnerable from a win point of view.

Form: 441415

(9)

Tinochio^b1¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: O McSweeney⁽³⁾| T: K A Ryan| OR: 69

12/1

Below form seventh of 14 in handicap (22/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) 14 days ago. Hopes pinned on addition of blinkers working the oracle.

Form: 0-50847

John Clare⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Christian Howarth⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 66| CD

7/4

C&D winner. 4/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, heavy) 62 days ago. Slipping down the weights and worthy of consideration with conditions no problem.

Form: 763274

(1)

He's Our Star^b1⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Emma Taff⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 66| D

14/1

Creditable second of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 10/3) 5 days ago. 12 lb higher back on turf and prospect of a slow surface tempers enthusiasm. Blinkers on 1st time.

Form: 513222

(15)

Quarantini^b³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Oliver Stammers| T: H Morrison| OR: 67| D

50/1

Winner at Ffos Las in August. 13/2, eighth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 34 days ago. Opposable on balance.

Form: 6-06518

(12)

Foxy Femme^b³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Aled Beech| T: J Gallagher| OR: 63| CD

12/1

C&D winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year, the latest here in August. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, firm, 15/8) 36 days ago. Should make her presence felt.

Form: 9-55114

(7)

Finery^h¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: Erika Parkinson⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 56| C

13/2

40/1 and hooded for 1st time, won 12-runner handicap at this course (8.2f, good) 15 days ago. Whether she'll be able to reproduce that level of form on this forecast slower surface remains to be seen.

Form: 00-8081

Forecasts

John Clare (7/4), Rectory Road (13/2), Finery (13/2), Love Dreams (8/1), Onaraggatip (10/1), May Night (11/1), Tinochio (12/1), Foxy Femme (12/1), Sovereign Slipper (12/1), He's Our Star (14/1), Yorkshire Pirlo (14/1), Shoot To Kill (16/1), Eligible (16/1), Chateau D'if (18/1), Hot Summer (40/1), Quarantini (50/1), Central City (50/1)

If conditions remain on the slow side, LOVE DREAMS will not be inconvenienced and the 7-y-o is taken to deservedly get his head in front following a string of solid efforts in defeat. Next on the list is May Night, who was third to Dark Shift (winner again since) off this mark at Ascot and a reproduction of that would put him firmly in the picture. Foxy Femme and John Clare are others to consider.
