Reclaim Victory^p³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 54| CD

C&D winner. Latest win here in July. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D 39 days ago. Enters calculations.

Twistaline²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Watson| T: M Appleby| OR: 54| D

9/1

Doubled career tally for this yard (well backed) in a Wolverhampton seller (8.6f) in February. Limited impact first 2 starts back from a break on AW this summer, but better signs when 3 lengths seventh of 10 in handicap at that venue (7.2f) 25 days ago, not ideally placed. One to note.

Going Underground^b¹¹^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: K Stott| T: W Storey| OR: 47| CD

13/8

Better signs over longer trips prior to belatedly shedding maiden tag over C&D 11 days ago, coming in for a well-judged ride. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and sound claims again under Kevin Stott.

Form: 098241

Iron Sheriff^p¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: D Tudhope| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 51| D

7/1

Winner at Beverley (10f) in June. Not disgraced when fifth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 33/1) 15 days ago. Each-way claims with mark sliding.

Form: 252065

Mintnthat^p³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: A Mullen| T: I Jardine| OR: 51| D

18/1

Visored for 1st time, creditable seventh of 13 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, soft, 22/1) 38 days ago, keeping on from 2f out. Cheekpieces go back on now and he's still unexposed on AW.

Mr Coco Bean^p²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: P Mulrennan| T: Helen Cuthbert| OR: 47| D

11/2

Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. 13/2, good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, challenging entering final 1f and staying on. Another live player in present groove from this basement mark.

Form: 763532

Shabs^b²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: Martin Smith| OR: 49

6/1

Bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to soft, 11/1) 25 days ago. Back down in trip. Not out of things from this mark.

Form: 406436

(12)

Strong Team^p²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 9-0| J: G Lee| T: C Grant| OR: 46

50/1

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, third of 14 in handicap (66/1) at this course (12.4f) 24 days ago, having run of race. Significantly down in trip and task is to back that up here.

Form: 900-073

(1)

Raffles Rebel^p²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Joanna Mason| T: P A Kirby| OR: 45

33/1

Maiden who ran best race for present yard when fourth in 11-runner Wolverhampton handicap (8.6f) in May. Not scaled same heights either outing since, sixth in 9-runner C&D handicap on back of 4 months off in October. Needs to leave that in his wake.

Form: 0-08456

(3)

William Of Mowbray²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 45

150/1

100/1, last of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 28 days ago, always behind on the back of 10 months off. Significantly back up in trip now but hard to make a case for.

Form: 00700-0

(4)

Tafsir^p1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Cam Hardie| T: J S Goldie| OR: 46

33/1

22/1, matched previous best when fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, slowly away but making late headway. Remains relatively low mileage and cheekpieces may put an extra edge on her now.

Form: 576244

(2)

Garlogie^b1⁸⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Rowan Scott| T: Ewan Whillans| OR: 45WS

100/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, fifth of 6 in maiden at Hamilton (11.1f, good to soft) in August, off the bridle long way out and beaten over 3f out. Gelded/had breathing op subsequently but only market confidence would make him of interest. Blinkered.

Form: 695

(9)

Cassiel¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Connor Murtagh| T: M Weatherer| OR: 45

80/1

First run since leaving Alan Berry when tenth of 14 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 150/1) 11 days ago, racing off the pace and never involved. Needs to step up plenty to feature.

Form: 60756-0

Forecasts

Going Underground (13/8), Reclaim Victory (5/1), Mr Coco Bean (11/2), Shabs (6/1), Iron Sheriff (7/1), Twistaline (9/1), Mintnthat (18/1), Mr Strutter (28/1), Raffles Rebel (33/1), Tafsir (33/1), Strong Team (50/1), Cassiel (80/1), Garlogie (100/1), William Of Mowbray (150/1)

TWISTALINE took a definite step back in the right direction without being ideally placed at Wolverhampton last month and, with this return to 1m rating a plus from an easing mark, she could just be worth chancing to build on that now. Going Underground came in for a good ride when opening his account over C&D recently and is feared, along with Reclaim Victory and Shabs.
