September Power^p²²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Jason Hart| T: M Wigham| OR: 69| CD

10/1

C&D winner in December. Run best excused when eighth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW, 16/1) 22 days ago, short of room over 2f out. No surprise to see her bounce back.

Form: 6713-28

(1)

Eloso¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 69

25/1

Struggling for form this year, seventh of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 16/1) 17 days ago. Others preferred as he's upped in trip.

Form: 504-687

(10)

Soldier In Action³²

Age: 10| Weight: 10-0| J: Rob Hornby| T: J E Long| OR: 69| D

125/1

Continues to show little after a lengthy absence, seventh of 9 in handicap at Kempton (2m) 32 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Form: 51/068-7

(8)

Quercus Robur^p²¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: K Stott| T: A Nicol| OR: 72| D

13/8

Back up in trip, resumed progress when winning 8-runner handicap (6/5) at Newcastle (16.2f) 21 days ago by ½ length from Freewheelin, readily. Leading contender.

Form: 712-151

(4)

Jersey Gift³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Saffie Osborne| T: J A Osborne| OR: 68

20/1

After 22 months off (gelded), well-beaten last of 8 in minor event (8/1) at Kempton (1m4f) 37 days ago. Significantly up in trip for his handicap debut.

Form: 634/8

(11)

Got Bright^b,t³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: William Carson| T: M Roberts| OR: 65

11/1

Not discredited when third of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (2m, 4/1) 31 days ago. Capable of getting involved off current mark.

Form: 3/8082-3

(6)

Clearance¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 9-8| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁵⁾| T: M Blake| OR: 63| D

50/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2020. Step back in right direction when fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f, 40/1) 16 days ago. Needs to be able to build on latest effort.

Form: 9209/05

(12)

Vintage Rascal^p¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: Thomas Greatrex| T: O Sherwood| OR: 62

33/1

Upped in trip, below form when seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f, 28/1) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive.

Form: 68498/7

(9)

Kitten's Dream^b²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 61| CD

8/1

C&D winner. 10/1, one of his better efforts when length third of 8 to Quercus Robur in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 21 days ago, left with too much to do. Task is now to back that up.

Form: 8327-53

(2)

Tiger Spirit^t³³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: T Eaves| T: M Herrington| OR: 61| CD

10/1

Back to winning ways in 10-runner handicap (16/1) at this C&D 33 days ago, keeping on well. Remains lightly raced for her age and she can give another good account.

Form: 51673-1

(3)

Easy Equation^p¹⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 8-13| J: Aidan Keeley⁽⁵⁾| T: J S Moore| OR: 54| CD

5/1

9/2, best effort of the season when winning 13-runner handicap at this C&D 10 days ago. Could still have more to offer over this distance so he's not taken lightly.

Form: 174-451

(5)

Freewheelin²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: G Lee| T: T P Tate| OR: 50| CD

5/1

C&D winner. Ran creditably when ½-length second of 8 to Quercus Robur in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f, 4/1) 21 days ago. However, the winner had plenty in hand last time so work to do to reverse the form.

Form: 6556-42

Forecasts

Quercus Robur (13/8), Freewheelin (5/1), Easy Equation (5/1), Kitten's Dream (8/1), September Power (10/1), Tiger Spirit (10/1), Got Bright (11/1), Jersey Gift (20/1), Eloso (25/1), Vintage Rascal (33/1), Clearance (50/1), Soldier In Action (125/1)

Back up in trip, QUERCUS ROBUR resumed his progress when scoring with plenty in hand at Newcastle last time and he can add another win to his tally. The 4-y-o has won both of his starts at around 2m and is taken to see off the challenge of a pair of last-time-out C&D winners, with Easy Equation feared most ahead of Tiger Spirit.
