Thornaby Pearl¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Barry McHugh| T: Adrian Nicholls| OR: 73| D

11/8

After a promising return, produced a career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft, 13/8) 12 days ago, helping force pace before going clear over 1f out. Not taken lightly.

Form: 5627-61

(5)

Impeller^t⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 67| D

3/1

Confirmed return to form when winning at Carlisle in July. Again ran well when second of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, soft, 11/2) a week ago, clear of rest, so he could be thereabouts once more.

Form: 968212

(3)

Trabajo Detecho^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jonny Peate⁽³⁾| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 70| D

9/1

Confirmed promise of previous run when gaining a first success on turf in 7-runner handicap at Hamilton (6f, good, 5/1) 2 weeks ago. Can give his running again.

Form: 135321

(9)

Bay Of Hope²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 68

17/2

Off the mark at Redcar in June and ran at least as well upped in grade when third of 11 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft, 33/1) 24 days ago. More needed as he drops back in trip.

Form: 839-513

(2)

Strength 'n Honour^b¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: B A Curtis| T: C N Kellett| OR: 66

66/1

Failed to build on his previous effort when well-beaten last of 7 to Thornaby Pearl in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft, 33/1) 12 days ago. Others preferred.

Form: 71-7757

(6)

Enderman^v¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: J Quinn| T: P T Midgley| OR: 56| BF| D

7/2

Twenty-nine runs since his sole win back in 2020. Has finished in the frame on his last 4 starts, second of 8 in handicap (3/1) at this C&D (soft) 16 days ago, but he remains vulnerable for win purposes.

Forecasts

Thornaby Pearl (11/8), Impeller (3/1), Enderman (7/2), Momaer (7/2), Belle Fourche (7/1), Imperial Dream (8/1), Bay Of Hope (17/2), Trabajo Detecho (9/1), Strength 'n Honour (66/1)

Having her first try at 6f, MOMAER resumed her progress when making all in dominant fashion at Leicester last month, so she looks capable of following up with more still to offer as a sprinter. Thornaby Pearl also arrives on the back of an easy win on his latest outing and is feared most, ahead of Imperial Dream.
