The Gatekeeper¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-4| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 92

7/1

Made a winning return from long absence at Newcastle (7f) in March and went in again on the Rowley Course here (7f, good) in May. Hasn't threatened in handful of starts since but this easier than his latest Bunbury Cup assignment and still unexposed at 1m.

Terwada²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: James Doyle| T: E Walker| OR: 90| D

6/4

Tamayuz colt who displayed promise first 2 starts and took a marked step forward to get off the mark at Nottingham (8.3f) 4 weeks ago, leading 2f out and forging clear. Highly likely there's more to come now handicapping and very much one to consider.

Pastiche³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Stott| T: G Boughey| OR: 87| C

2/1

Zoustar filly who is going the right way, making it 2 wins from 4 starts with a commanding handicap debut success over 7f here 5 weeks ago. 7 lb higher now but of interest again with prospect of more to come tackling 1m for the first time.

Form: 71-21

Signcastle City⁵⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 86

12/1

Salisbury maiden winner (at 6f) as a juvenile who returned with respectable efforts in handicaps at Haydock/on Rowley Mile. Caught wide and never figured at Epsom (7f) when last seen in June but gelded ahead of this and return to 1m promises to suit.

Form: 135-530

Oliver Show^t¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 83| D

5/1

Left previous efforts behind in a first-time tongue strap when winning 10-runner handicap at Kempton (1m) on penultimate start in June. Similar form from 7 lb higher mark when fourth at Ascot (1m) 2 weeks ago. That unlikely his limit.

Form: 7-4414

Having displayed promise on each of his first 2 starts, TERWADA took a marked step forward and forged clear in the style of a very useful performer when landing a Nottingham novice 4 weeks ago. A good-bodied sort, he's very much the type to go on improving now handicapping and earns the vote. Pastiche is similarly progressive and feared upped to 1m. Signcastle City (gelded since last run) remains with potential to do better also back at 1m.
