Mojomaker^p1³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: A Kirby| T: D Loughnane| OR: 86| BF

9/2

3/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Best effort of the campaign came over C&D in April and with cheekpieces fitted, it would come as no surprise to see him go well.

Form: 4-44284

Parisiac¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Harrison Shaw| T: B Smart| OR: 85| D

17/2

Lightly-raced winner who, on back of being gelded finished fifth of 7 on handicap debut at Nottingham (6.1f, good, 16/1) 15 days ago, weakening final 100 yds. Mark has eased subsequently and it does remain early days.

Form: 14-25

(2)

Twelfth Knight^p²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: James Doyle| T: A Watson| OR: 85| D

4/1

2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Windsor in June. 22/1, bit below form eleventh of 19 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 23 days ago, weakening over 1f out. This rates less demanding at least.

Form: 321210

Melayu Kingdom²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S A Gray| T: K A Ryan| OR: 82

12/1

Thirsk maiden winner on 2-y-o debut and returned to form from out of the blue when creditable third of 7 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good, 20/1) 21 days ago. Task is to build on that now.

Form: 9-46563

(5)

Chrysos³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J P Sullivan| T: K A Ryan| OR: 82

9/1

Winner at Lingfield (1m) in February. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good, 28/1) 37 days ago, running on late having not been ideally placed. Remains unexposed as a sprinter.

Another Investment²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 81| D

5/2

Signed off 2-y-o campaign of a winning note and having attracted support he wasn't far off very best form when second of 7 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good) 21 days ago. Claims with a repeat.

Form: 552052

(6)

The Dunkirk Lads⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 76| BF| D

9/2

Latest win at Nottingham (6f) in June. Respectable third of 15 in handicap (11/2) at York (5.4f, good to firm) 8 days ago, that despite finding the test on the sharp side. Return to 6f a plus now.

Forecasts

Another Investment (5/2), Twelfth Knight (4/1), Mojomaker (9/2), The Dunkirk Lads (9/2), Parisiac (17/2), Chrysos (9/1), Melayu Kingdom (12/1)

ANOTHER INVESTMENT came in for support and ran up to his best when runner-up at Chester 3 weeks ago. Appealing as being on a workable mark, he gets the nod to build on that now, with Mojomaker and The Dunkirk Lads others to consider.
