5/1

Last win came in a 3-runner minor event in October 2020. Several good efforts in defeat for Karl Burke last year and sound stable debut/back from 8 months off in Group 3 Chipchase at Newcastle in June. However, all 4 career victories gained on soft/heavy.

Arecibo^p²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: K Stott| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 102| D

12/1

Smart gelding who got back on track when third in Temple Stakes (28/1) at Haydock (5f) in May. Not beaten far in Coral Charge at Sandown (5f) on penultimate start and not seen to best effect at Ascot since (reportedly finished lame). Better expected.

Form: 3-73076

Burning Cash¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 96| D

33/1

Lost his way last term but more like it this time around, landing back-to-back Doncaster handicaps (both at 5f) this summer. Hasn't quite scaled same heights since, last of 4 in conditions' event at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago. More needed at this level.

Form: 5-81104

Existent^t²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Callum Shepherd| T: S C Williams| OR: 104| D

11/1

Improved for return to sprinting for this yard, landing back-to-back AW handicaps early in the year and back to best when fourth behind Raasel in Coral Charge at Sandown in July. Below form in Goodwood Group 2 since but this more suitable from handy draw.

Form: 625049

King Of Stars^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Alistair Rawlinson| T: M Appleby| OR: 101| D

8/1

Four-time winner last year who arrives having posted a career-best display when runner-up in 22-ruuner York handicap (5f) 10 days ago, easily faring best of those racing on near side. Should give another good account from the front.

Mondammej^h¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-4| J: Cam Hardie| T: A Brittain| OR: 101| D

14/1

Smart gelding who scored 5 times in 2021 and some solid performances this year, not least his second in listed City Walls at York in July. Turned in a couple of below-par displays subsequently but not out of things if putting it all together.

Form: 846200

Motagally³²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-4| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 94| BF| D

40/1

Multiple sprint winner equipped with blinkers for Charlie Hills (left off here) who ran well when fourth in last season's Ayr Gold Cup. Not at very best on AW final start for that yard in October and this looks a tough enough ask on return for new stable.

Tis Marvellous^t⁷⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-4| J: P Hanagan| T: C G Cox| OR: 109| CD

7/2

Luckless in this race in 2019 and proved as good as ever when gaining compensation here 12 months ago, either side of victories over 5f at Ascot. Doesn't arrive in same groove this time around, albeit faced with stiff task in King's Stand in June. Fancied to feature.

Form: 1131-60

(5)

Korker⁴⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: B A Curtis| T: K R Burke| OR: 104| D

7/2

Smart gelding who impressed when opening his account for the season at York (5f) in May. His starts have hindered him to a degree since, nearest at finish when third behind Royal Aclaim back at York 7 weeks ago. Capable of making his mark at this level.

Form: 12-5103

(13)

Our Little Pony¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 8-13| J: Sean Kirrane| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 72| CD

66/1

Likeable mare (3-time C&D winner) who resumed winning ways at York (6f) in June. Noted doing best work at the finish when third over C&D 16 days ago but likely she'll fall short at this level and widest draw to overcome.

Form: 90-4143

(3)

Tenaya Canyon²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: H Crouch| T: E Walker| OR: 95| D

11/1

Useful filly who ran up to her best when narrowly denied by Guilded in 5f Ayr listed race in June. Respectable efforts have followed in Group 3/listed company but others make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 828285

(12)

Alia Choice³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: T Eaves| T: K A Ryan| OR: 92| D

14/1

AW novice scorer who had caught the eye in turf handicaps prior to bolting up at York (5.4f) 5 weeks ago, forging clear off a strong pace. This much tougher and wide draw to overcome but possible she can do better still.

Form: 128341

Barbanera¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: O J Orr| T: R A Fahey| OR: 97| D

33/1

York novice winner at 2. Useful effort when fourth in Fred Darling on Newbury reappearance in April but subsequent efforts in listed events at Chester/Pontefract have been underwhelming. Needs to step up returned to 5f.

Form: 213-477

Forecasts

Tis Marvellous (7/2), Korker (7/2), Ainsdale (5/1), King Of Stars (8/1), Tenaya Canyon (11/1), Existent (11/1), Arecibo (12/1), Alia Choice (14/1), Mondammej (14/1), Barbanera (33/1), Burning Cash (33/1), Motagally (40/1), Our Little Pony (66/1)

Impressive when bolting up in this race 12 months ago, TIS MARVELLOUS hasn't been at his very best in 2 starts this campaign, albeit faced with a stiff task in the Group 1 King's Stand when last seen in June. Returned to calmer waters, he's fancied to be seen in a much better light, with 3-y-o Korker rating a big threat if keeping the tardy starts at bay. Existent and King of Stars are others fancied to be in the mix.
