Daany^h²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Charlie Bennett| T: A West| OR: 60| BF| D

7/1

Latest win at Lingfield (1m) in November. 9/4, not seen to best effect when sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 24 days ago. No forlorn hope.

Form: 188316-

Street Poet¹⁹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: M Herrington| OR: 58WS

66/1

Landed back-to-back Wolverhampton handicaps (at up to 8.6f) in April. However, more miss than hit thereafter during early summer and market may guide on return/following a wind op.

Form: 113870-

Mabre²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Cam Hardie| T: P D Evans| OR: 58| D

3/1

Winner at Windsor (1m) in June but largely struggled to scale same heights since, again well below best when tenth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 23 days ago. Mark continues to ease at least.

Oud Metha Bridge^p⁶¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-5| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 58| D

20/1

Now operating 4 lb below last winning mark but seemingly going therough the motions on turf in the autumn and poor effort at Kempton to dispel in November if he's to figure here.

Form: 437460-

Mostallim^p¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Frederick Larson⁽⁷⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 57| D

7/1

Three wins from 19 runs last year. 6/1, creditable second of 14 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 15 days ago, just no match for the winner's late surge. Big player with a repeat.

Shyjack^p¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 9-2| J: K T O'Neill| T: Mrs C A Dunnett| OR: 55| BF| D

10/3

Temperamental sort. 11/8, again ran well when second of 12 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 15 days ago, no match for winner but clear of remainder. Should be thereabouts again in present groove.

Paddy Elliott^p¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-1| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 54

7/1

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Good third of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 11/1) 11 days ago. On a good mark if he can back that up now and interesting.

100/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 250/1, ninth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 42 days ago. Needs to find some improvement to figure now handicapping.

Forecasts

Mabre (3/1), Shyjack (10/3), Mostallim (7/1), Daany (7/1), Paddy Elliott (7/1), Nine Elms (8/1), Daafy (11/1), Oud Metha Bridge (20/1), Destroyer (28/1), Street Poet (66/1), Whytehall Rose (100/1)

A competitive handicap with the vote in favour of PADDY ELLIOTT. He shaped well when finishing a close-up third over further at Newcastle 11 days ago and he's undoubtedly lurking on a handy mark. Mostallim and Shyjack also ran well on their latest outings and can also feature.
