Sun King^p,t⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: B A Curtis| T: G Boughey| OR: 85| D

9/2

Has just a maiden win to his name in Ireland but sound start to life for new yard in competitive handicaps to start 2023. Did too much too soon fitted with cheekpieces on the AW in June.

Form: 63-5455

(9)

Repertoire²³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: R Coakley| T: D M Simcock| OR: 83| D

15/2

Latest win at Newmarket in May and shaped well when second at Hamilton 3 weeks ago. Stronger gallop will see him in an even better light.

Form: 7-71652

(1)

United Front¹⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 9-10| J: Frederick Larson⁽³⁾| T: M Appleby| OR: 83| D

15/2

Lower in the weights on turf and cashed in at Beverley in June. 13/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 14 days ago, running on and this is a slight drop back in class.

Form: 352155

(4)

Shahbaz^v1¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: L Dettori| T: C Fellowes| OR: 87

15/8

Good third of 8 in handicap at Ayr (8f, good, 4/1) 18 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Kept to this distance but a visor may sharpen him up.

Form: 421-363

(8)

Tahitian Prince^p²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: R Hannon| OR: 79| D

20/1

Good third of 10 in handicap (11/2) at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago, not ideally placed. Lurks on a dangerous mark if he can build on that.

Form: 40-5753

(2)

Alexander James^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: M Herrington| OR: 78| D

28/1

Didn't need to improve to win 7-runner seller at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 11/8) 20 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Michael Appleby and this clearly demands more.

Form: 266731

(10)

Awtaad Prince^b1,t1⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: A J Farragher⁽³⁾| T: Miss A Murphy| OR: 84

22/1

Novice winner at Leicester in October. Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 50 days ago and headgear now on.

Form: 515-766

(7)

Devasboy^v¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Rhys Clutterbuck| T: Ian Williams| OR: 71| D

14/1

Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 12/1 and visored for first time, good third of 11 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, soft) 13 days ago, running on. Return to 1m will suit.

Form: 200843

(3)

Achillea¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-5| J: Marco Ghiani| T: D K Ivory| OR: 72

9/2

Unexposed and upped her game when a good third of 9 in handicap at Ascot (7f, soft) 12 days ago, finishing well. Return to 1m will suit and she should have a bigger performance in her.

Form: 46-303

Forecasts

Shahbaz (15/8), Achillea (9/2), Sun King (9/2), United Front (15/2), Repertoire (15/2), Devasboy (14/1), Carolus Magnus (16/1), Tahitian Prince (20/1), Awtaad Prince (22/1), Alexander James (28/1)

The return to 1m is sure to suit the 3-y-o ACHILLEA and with the prospect of more to come on this her third handicap start. she's awarded the vote. Shahbaz and Repertoire are just a couple of potential threats.
