12/1

Zargun⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-1| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 96| D

14/1

Winner at Catterick in October. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (10/1) at Doncaster (5f, heavy) 4 days ago. Needs to bounce back if he's to have a say in the finish.

Form: 070210

Mulzim¹⁵⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: M Murphy| OR: 95| D

66/1

Seven wins from 23 Flat runs. 3 wins from 7 runs this year. 11/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at York (5f, soft). Off 158 days. Fine strike rate on the AW, but 0-7 on turf.

Form: 111629

Zim Baby^p1,h⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Theodore Ladd⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 87| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2020. Twelfth of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Doncaster (5f, heavy) 4 days ago. Hood refitted and cheekpieces on 1st time. Others make more appeal.

Form: 506350

Rebel At Dawn^p¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: K R Burke| OR: 86| CD

7/1

C&D winner. 25/1, respectable fifth of 17 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to soft) 12 days ago, needing lesser test. Place possibilities back at the minimum trip.

Isle Of Lismore¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Cieren Fallon| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 86| D

40/1

Latest win at Newmarket in June. 6¼ lengths eighth of 10 to Zargun in handicap at Catterick (5f, good to soft, 17/2) 11 days ago, slowly away. Probably best to look elsewhere.

Form: 113708

Ben Macdui³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: K Stott| T: K A Ryan| OR: 85| D

33/1

7/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good) 34 days ago, not much room. Down another 2 lb, but he needs to get back on track.

Form: 6-63095

(13)

Wrenthorpe¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: G Lee| T: B Smart| OR: 84| CD

12/1

Four-time C&D winner. ½-length second of 7 to Raasel in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (good) 14 days ago. 2 lb better off with that rival now and another bold show anticipated.

Form: 18-6682

(11)

Show Me Show Me⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Connor Murtagh⁽³⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 82| D

25/1

Latest win at Lingfield in August. Good second of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Pontefract (5f, heavy) 9 days ago, just failing. Enters calculations off the same mark.

Form: 120802

(7)

Raasel^h¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: James Doyle| T: M Appleby| OR: 81| CD

15/8

Three wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (13/8) at this C&D (good) 14 days ago by ½ length from Wrenthorpe, kept up to work. Up only 3 lb and he's the one to beat.

Form: 286111

Faustus³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: W Buick| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 81| BF| D

16/1

Latest win at Lingfield in June. Creditable third of 6 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good, 5/2) 37 days ago. Should give it a good shot, but will probably find one or two too good once more.

Form: 231233

Good Luck Fox¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-12| J: Ben Robinson| T: P T Midgley| OR: 79| D

40/1

Latest win at Musselburgh in June. 9/1, eighteenth of 19 in handicap at York (5f, soft) 19 days ago. In good form prior to that, but this demands a clear career-best.

Form: 157220

(6)

Dark Shot^b¹^{(ex 6)}

Age: 8| Weight: 8-11| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 72| CD

12/1

C&D winner. Completed hat-trick at Catterick on Tuesday. This will be tough if turned out again under a penalty, but can't be discounted in current mood.

Form: 406111

(8)

Josies Kid^p¹⁹

Age: 2| Weight: 8-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 75| D

7/2

Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 12-runner nursery at York (5.4f, soft, 13/2) 19 days ago, responding well. More needed against his elders here, but merits respect all the same.

Form: 72331

Forecasts

Raasel (15/8), Josies Kid (7/2), Rebel At Dawn (7/1), Dark Shot (12/1), Zim Baby (12/1), Count D'Orsay (12/1), Wrenthorpe (12/1), Zargun (14/1), Faustus (16/1), Show Me Show Me (25/1), Ben Macdui (33/1), Isle Of Lismore (40/1), Good Luck Fox (40/1), Mulzim (66/1)

RAASEL appeared to have more left in the tank when seeing off Wrenthorpe over this C&D a fortnight ago and a 3 lb rise is unlikely to be enough to bring his winning spree to a halt. The latter should again be on the premises and is second choice ahead of Show Me Show Me, who returned to form when hitting the crossbar at Pontefract recently. The 2-y-o Josies Kid also needs considering.
