Selected odds by:
Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. 9/2, creditable second of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 27 days ago, beaten only by one operating at the top of his game. Respected for all his wide draw makes things tougher.
|
7f AW novice winner who very much caught the eye when fifth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) on his penultimate start. Latest run over C&D is best forgiven (met trouble at the start) and he remains one to bear in mind from this sort of mark.
|
4-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 16 runs this year. Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Southwell (6.1f) 54 days ago. Now below last winning mark.
|
Al Kazeem filly who doubled her career tally in good style over C&D 2 starts back, always in command when hitting the front. Matched that form when second at Lingfield (7f) 2 weeks ago, despite being hampered in the straight, and she's one to be positive about again.
|
C&D winner. Shaped better than distance suggests under change of tactics when tenth of 13 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 14/1) 43 days ago, doing too much too soon. Visor back on.
|
C&D winner. Latest win at Brighton in June. Tenth of 14 in handicap (66/1) at Newcastle (6f) 28 days ago, possibly in need of the run on the back of 3 months off. Entitled to be sharper now and he's back on his last winning mark.
|
Latest win at Newcastle in October. 5/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 13 days ago, weakening inside final 1f. Rider takes off a handy 5 lb here.
|
Good fifth of 13 in handicap (15/2) at Newcastle (6f) 11 days ago, carrying head a little awkwardly but keeping on. Mark has eased a little more if he can build on that now.
|
Tricky customer who ran best race this year when just touched off at Brighton (7f) in August. 14/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 15 days ago. Mark has eased a little more if he can build on that.
|
Course winner. Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 16/1) 54 days ago, headed under 2f out and weakening. Best efforts to date have come over shorter.

Forecasts
Follow Your Heart (15/8), Min Till (7/2), Beattie Is Back (5/1), Novak (13/2), Chookie Dunedin (7/1), Barneys Gift (10/1), Catesby (14/1), The Nail Gunner (14/1), Mudlahhim (16/1), Buraback (22/1), Fieldsman (28/1), Madrinho (28/1)
Having caught the eye over 6f on his penultimate start, BEATTIE IS BACK wasn't seen to anything like best effect having been hampered early on over C&D a fortnight ago and he could be worth chancing to come out on top with the likelihood of more to come at this trip. Follow Your Heart arrives in top form and is feared, despite a wide draw. Min Till is another arriving in good order and can also feature.
