Little Jo^p¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-1| J: Laura Coughlan⁽³⁾| T: G Tutty| OR: 66| D

7/2

Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable third of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (1m, 16/1) 18 days ago. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 446823

(14)

Dougies Dream¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-13| J: Faye McManoman| T: N Tinkler| OR: 66| CD

10/1

C&D winner. Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (1m, 4/1) 18 days ago, carrying head awkwardly. Mark has eased a little more and whilst he's tricky, he's capable if putting it all together.

Form: 849286

Parys Mountain^h,t¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-13| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁷⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 64| C| D

10/1

Course winner. 12/1, eighth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 12 days ago, not seen to best effect racing wide. Another who has fallen plenty in the weights and this is his first foray into class 6 company.

Form: 074878

(6)

Mabre¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Kieran Schofield⁽³⁾| T: P D Evans| OR: 63| D

17/2

Back to winning ways on AW at Lingfield (1m) in March and arrives here having stepped up on his return effort when second of 13 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Worthy of consideration.

Form: 185202

(7)

Motarajel^p³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Saffie Osborne| T: T D Easterby| OR: 63| D

14/1

14/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at this course (10f, good to soft) 31 days ago, struggling 3f out and making little impression. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive.

Form: 738427

(12)

Big Bear Hug³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Georgia Dobie| T: A West| OR: 64

14/1

Still to get her head in front but posted a creditable fifth of 11 in handicap (7/1) at Ffos Las (8f, good to soft) 37 days ago. Not taken lightly.

Form: 368365

(15)

Do I Dream²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Harry Russell| T: B Haslam| OR: 63| D

12/1

9/1, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at Pontefract (1m, good) 29 days ago, left poorly placed. Not out of things eased back down in class with underfoot conditions holding no fears.

Form: 027256

(5)

Musicality^p³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Aiden Brookes⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 60

100/1

Sixteen runs since last win in 2020. 66/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good) 36 days ago. Significantly back up in trip.

Form: 0-00099

(3)

Prince Hector^v⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: O McSweeney⁽³⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 59| BF

5/1

Creditable second of 14 in handicap (11/4) at Newcastle (1m) 8 days ago. Looks competitive on form.

Form: 007302

(19)

George Ridsdale²²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 58| D

33/1

Eighth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Musselburgh (9f, soft) 22 days ago. Operating below best upon returning from a lengthy absence and he's not the easiest to assess on balance.

Form: 173/098

(13)

Valorant¹³⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Elisha Whittington⁽³⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 58

66/1

Last of 6 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm, 100/1) in June, doing too much too soon but showing precious little in any case. Not beaten a rival on each of her last 5 starts and a break needs to have perked her up.

Form: 2/5-6066

(8)

Star Of St James²²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Murtagh| T: R A Fahey| OR: 58| D

14/1

Latest win at Carlisle in August. Respectable third of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft) 22 days ago, grabbing a place in dying strides. No surprise to see him go well again.

Form: 821423

(10)

Virgo^p³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Mikkel Mortensen⁽⁷⁾| T: C Fellowes| OR: 58

25/1

14/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 32 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Remains a maiden but mark is easing all the time and in better heart than recent form figures suggest.

Form: 2-79395

(18)

Retirement Beckons²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Mark Winn⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 56| D

25/1

3 wins from 15 runs this year. Latest win at Hamilton in August. 13/2, shaped as if back in form for a long way when 8 lengths third of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, heavy) 26 days ago. Each-way claims.

Form: 114203

(9)

Martin's Brig^b¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: Jonathan Fisher⁽³⁾| T: D Thompson| OR: 53

5/1

Shed maiden tag at Carlisle (6.9f) in August. Respectable placed efforts next 3 starts and not disgraced when eighth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (1m) 14 days ago. Expected to give another good account back on turf.

Form: 713228

(11)

Hollis Brown²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Ben Sanderson| T: Miss L A Perratt| OR: 52

50/1

28/1, respectable third of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, heavy) 26 days ago, headway 2f out and plodding on. Needs to build on that now.

Form: 302603

(17)

Premiership⁸⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Zak Wheatley⁽³⁾| T: Miss Tracy Waggott| OR: 45

40/1

11/2, fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) in August, pushed along 3f out and plugging on having been left poorly placed. Absent since but underfoot conditions should hold no fears.

Form: 9-93075

(4)

Connie R^p²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Aidan Keeley⁽³⁾| T: M Herrington| OR: 45

28/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 14 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to soft, 100/1) 22 days ago, missing break and plodding on. Others make greater appeal.

Form: 738097

Forecasts

Little Jo (7/2), Prince Hector (5/1), Martin's Brig (5/1), Mabre (17/2), Parys Mountain (10/1), Dougies Dream (10/1), Do I Dream (12/1), Star Of St James (14/1), Motarajel (14/1), Big Bear Hug (14/1), Chinese Spirit (16/1), Retirement Beckons (25/1), Virgo (25/1), Connie R (28/1), George Ridsdale (33/1), Premiership (40/1), Hollis Brown (50/1), Valorant (66/1), Musicality (100/1)

Plenty in with a shout with the vote in favour of 3-y-o DO I DREAM. A winner at Pontefract in the spring, she's shaped well on occasions since to suggest this sort of mark is within reach and conditions look ideal now eased back down in class. Mabre, Little Jo, Star of St James and Big Bear Hug are others fancied to play a part.
