Abbey Heights³⁷⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: J Mitchell| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 77| D

7/4

Positive start in maiden/novice company, off the mark at third attempt at Newcastle (6f) last summer. Proved disappointing when fifteenth of 20 on handicap debut at York (7f) 12 months ago but not one to write off on belated return/having been gelded. Market should guide.

Form: 3210-

Lilkian¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Liam Wright⁽⁷⁾| T: Darryll Holland| OR: 76| C| D

16/1

Course winner. Latest win at Lingfield in May. Eighth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at this C&D 11 days ago, weakening final 1f. Others arrive with more pressing claims.

Ahlawi¹⁵⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 75| D

14/1

All weather novice winner as a 2-y-o who hasn't yet found his best form in 2 starts for present yard, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f) in May. Absent since and return to AW needs to have positive effect.

Form: 6332-76

Twilight Secret^b²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Oliver Stammers⁽³⁾| T: Grant Tuer| OR: 75| D

11/1

Latest win at Newcastle in September. Creditable third of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 4/1) 20 days ago, left poorly placed. One to consider.

Form: 125413

Follow Your Heart^t¹⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 72| D

25/1

Added to his tally at Kempton (7f) in December and ran well from higher marks on AW/turf earlier this year. Not disgraced when sixth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f) in June (raced wide) and no surprise to see a good showing on return.

Form: 343496

Lockdown^t¹⁸³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: T E Whelan| T: George Baker| OR: 72| D

25/1

4/1, went backwards from reappearance effort when last of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) in April, weakening 1f out. Absent since and the betting ought to prove a useful guide here.

Form: 8130-57

Redzone^p⁸²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Harrison Shaw| T: B Smart| OR: 71| CD

15/2

Hail Sezer⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: D Allan| T: G A Harker| OR: 68| D

11/2

Steadily eased in weights during light campaign and ran up to best when landing 13-runner handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 54 days ago, asserting over 1f out and keeping on. Boasts a low-mileage profile on AW and considered from 2 lb higher mark.

Form: 25-3551

Forecasts

Abbey Heights (7/4), Hail Sezer (11/2), Palifico (7/1), Redzone (15/2), Kapono (17/2), Chookie Dunedin (17/2), Twilight Secret (11/1), Ahlawi (14/1), Yazaman (14/1), Lilkian (16/1), Follow Your Heart (25/1), Lockdown (25/1)

A winner at Kempton in December, FOLLOW YOUR HEART ran with credit from higher marks on several occasions earlier this year and, back from a break, he could well be worth chancing with the return to 6f holding no fears. Redzone ran well at Doncaster in July and goes well fresh so he is feared, along with the returning/low mileage Abbey Heights and Hail Sezer.
