Seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (12.1f, heavy, 14/1) 22 days ago. Significantly back up in trip.

Freewheelin²²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D Allan| T: T P Tate| OR: 55| BF| D

12/1

In good order on AW last winter successful in staying handicaps at Newcastle/Southwell at around 2m. Not disgraced when last seen in February and interesting what the market makes of him on return.

Form: 6013-16

(5)

Near Kettering^t⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 54

50/1

Eighth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, good, 9/1) 41 days ago. Yet to fire over hurdles so far this term and probably best to look elsewhere on this return to the Flat.

Form: 76/8407-

(9)

Vertice¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Aiden Brookes⁽⁵⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 50

28/1

Unreliable type. Creditable sixth of 10 in handicap (33/1) at Redcar (14f, good) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 331266

(4)

Oh So Chic^p¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: K Stott| T: E Bethell| OR: 50| BF

2/1

Winner at Carlisle in August. Good second of 10 in handicap at Redcar (14f, good, 5/2) 15 days ago, no match for winner. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 9-42412

(6)

Cloudy Rose⁶²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Gina Mangan⁽⁵⁾| T: John Berry| OR: 48

17/2

Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (16f, good, 15/2) 62 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Form: 956525

(3)

Wadacre Tir²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Connor Beasley| T: C & M Johnston| OR: 57

12/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Ripon (16f, good to firm, 14/1) 29 days ago. Needs to pull out more even at this level.

Form: 8-8765

(10)

Heresmax¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: J Garritty| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 46

11/1

Showed improved form when runner-up in handicaps here/Thirsk at up to 13f this summer. Not in same form when eighth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (14f, good) 15 days ago. Still, not one to write off.

Form: 9/00-228

(7)

Lady Shanawell²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: P Mulrennan| T: B Haslam| OR: 45| D

10/3

Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 11/1, second of 11 in handicap at Ripon (16f, good to firm) 29 days ago, no match for winner but clear of remainder. Possibilities with a repeat.

Form: 437-062

(11)

Wildmountainthyme¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Faye McManoman⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Stella Barclay| OR: 45

18/1

Maiden who ran best race when runner-up at Hamilton (12f) 3 starts back. Best excused latest midfield effort at Thirsk (stuck to inside) but she's had plenty of chances already. Up markedly in trip.

Form: 257258

(2)

Cold Henry¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Joanna Mason| T: Sara Ender| OR: 49

15/2

Bit below form seventh of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, soft, 18/1) 16 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Needs to find some improvement for this significan tstep up in trip.

Form: 0-08607

Forecasts

Oh So Chic (2/1), Lady Shanawell (10/3), Cold Henry (15/2), Cloudy Rose (17/2), Heresmax (11/1), Freewheelin (12/1), Wadacre Tir (12/1), Wildmountainthyme (18/1), Witham River (20/1), Vertice (28/1), Near Kettering (50/1)

OH SO CHIC cemented the positive start for her new yard when runner-up to a much-improved sort at Redcar (14f) 2 weeks ago and, with the step back up in trip holding no fears, she could be the answer. Lady Shanawell and Cloudy Rose can give the selection most to think about.
