The Van Man²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-11| J: J P Sullivan| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 67

20/1

Brazen Beau gelding who didn't appear to get home when sixth of 9 on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 24 days ago, fading final 1f. Eased 3 lb since but trip has to be a concern again on the back of latest run.

Form: 5476

(18)

Fiery Bond²⁴

Age: 2| Weight: 9-9| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 65

6/1

Showed improved form when finding only an impressive winner too strong on nursery debut at Ayr (6f) in July. Didn't look so well served by drop back to 5f when running on sixth of 8 at Carlisle since and better expected.

Form: 06626

Mint Edition^p1⁶

Age: 2| Weight: 9-7| J: P J McDonald| T: E Bethell| OR: 63

15/2

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, respectable fifth of 10 in nursery at Leicester (7f, good) 6 days ago, headway over 1f out without posing a threat. Cheekpieces go on now.

Countess Kess⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: G Lee| T: P T Midgley| OR: 61

16/1

Thrice-raced filly. Posted best effort to yet when fifth of 11 in maiden at Pontefract (6f, good, 150/1) 40 days ago., ridden over 1f out and keeping on. Entitled to hold more chance now handicapping.

Kodi Dancer¹³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: C Lee| T: K R Burke| OR: 61

5/1

Off the mark from 7 lb lower mark at Southwell (5f) and backed that up when runner-up at Doncaster (6f) in July. Not beaten far when sixth of 8 in nursery at Ripon (5f) 13 days ago and she's expected to be in the mix again.

Form: 712346

The Twilight Lady^p¹⁷

Age: 2| Weight: 9-5| J: Jason Hart| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 61

8/1

7/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 6 in nursery at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) 17 days ago, fading final 1f having been lit up in the headgear. Has come down plenty in weights if she can settle better.

Form: 554034

Aurora Glory³³

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Cam Hardie| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 59

33/1

Thrice-raced maiden. Best effort in maiden/novice events when sixth of 11 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 66/1) 33 days ago. Makes handicap debut and betting may prove a useful guide. One of 4 runners from this yard.

Star Of Midnight^v⁵

Age: 2| Weight: 9-3| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 59

33/1

Minor promise in trio of novice events at up to 7f but not kicked on in nurseries, well held seventh of 8 in first-time visor (retained here) at Carlisle (5.8f) 5 days ago. Much more needed.

Ladywantaway³²

Age: 2| Weight: 9-1| J: S H James| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 57

50/1

Techno Lady⁴⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-10| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey| OR: 52

11/1

Camacho filly, closely related to 1m winner Bearberry. Limited impact in trio of novice/maiden events in recent weeks but she's in good hands and worth a precautionary market check on nursery bow for positive vibes.

Little Red Dancer¹⁰

Age: 2| Weight: 8-3| J: Paula Muir⁽³⁾| T: A D Brown| OR: 45

Forecasts

Kodi Dancer (5/1), Gottaifan (11/2), Fiery Bond (6/1), Heathcliff's Girl (7/1), Mint Edition (15/2), Urban Dandy (15/2), The Twilight Lady (8/1), Techno Lady (11/1), Doctor Mozart (12/1), Glory Call (14/1), Barlow Barlow (14/1), Countess Kess (16/1), Knights Artist (20/1), The Van Man (20/1), Gutsy Lady (22/1), Aurora Glory (33/1), Star Of Midnight (33/1), Ladywantaway (50/1), Little Red Dancer (50/1), Beautiful Mum (125/1)

Claims can be made for a few but having shaped up well behind an impressive winner at Ayr on his penultimate start, FIERY BOND looked unsuited by the drop back to 5f at Carlisle 24 days ago and it would come as no surprise to see Michael Dods's charge in the mix back up in trip. Glory Call has progressed gradually in novice/maiden events and is feared, along with the Karl Burke trained-pair Kodi Dancer and Heathcliff's Girl.
