Granary Queen^p⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Charles Bishop| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 76| BF| D

10/1

Has held her form well this season (third at Epsom last time) but she's a tricky ride who needs everything to drop right, so a strong pace is crucial.

Form: 236523

(13)

Hot Chesnut¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: R Havlin| T: D K Ivory| OR: 76| D

9/2

2 wins from 7 runs this year, latest at Newbury in July. Back on track when fourth at Chepstow 15 days ago and can't be completely dismissed.

Form: 613184

Sayifyouwill⁴¹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-1| J: Brandon Wilkie⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs A J Perrett| OR: 76| D

16/1

Has scored twice over 7f on all-weather this year, with her latest win at Kempton in May. From her lower mark on turf, ran well when fourth at Newbury (7f) on penultimate outing but disappointed at Ascot on latest.

Form: 171847

Just Janet²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: D Nolan| T: D O'Meara| OR: 76| BF| D

10/1

Resumed winning ways in good style at Catterick in July but hasn't matched that form subsequently. This is a bit easier than the race she contested at York last time, so she's not one to write off completely.

Form: 222140

Resonance²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: W Buick| T: M Botti| OR: 75

17/2

Well-bred sort who stepped up on her debut form when second of 8 in minor event over C&D in June. Found things tougher in a deeper race here since and handicapper has taken no chances with opening mark.

Form: 9-27

(2)

Capuchinero^h1¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: K T O'Neill| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 70| D

18/1

First run since leaving Joseph Patrick O'Brien when respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 8/1) 11 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Not taken lightly.

Form: 147074

(11)

Film Star²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: Sir M Todd| OR: 72| D

18/1

Improved since handicapping, winning 5-runner Brighton handicap (soft) before just failing there last month. Latest run here is best excused, so she's not a forlorn hope.

Form: 462128

(8)

Martini Nights²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: James Horton| OR: 71

13/2

Lightly-raced filly who very much caught the eye when sixth at Newcastle last time, finishing to good effect. Can make her presence felt if she gets going soon enough.

Form: 373-6

(7)

Regal Fanfare⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: R Kingscote| T: Sir Michael Stoute| OR: 71

9/1

Fair form so far but isns't progressing and opening mark looked stiff when she only managed fifth at Haydock 72 days ago. Might do better back from a break, however.

Form: 6-235

(3)

Comedian Leader^p⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Morgan Cole⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss Gay Kelleway| OR: 70| D

33/1

Four wins on the all-weather earlier this year and proved herself just as effective on turf when third at this track (7f, good to firm) two weeks ago. Has disappointed here since, though.

Form: 650738

(6)

Revisit^t¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Thomas Greatrex| T: R Hannon| OR: 65

100/1

Slipped in the weights and returned to form when fifth at Wolverhampton 11 days ago, albeit better placed than most. Still looks averagely handicapped.

Form: 15-6985

(14)

Twilight Dancer⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Rob Hornby| T: J G Portman| OR: 64| D

10/3

Progressive filly who had something to spare when landing a 6-runner event at Salisbury 9 days ago. Escapes a penalty and boasts leading claims.

Form: 673131

(5)

Annie Law¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Hayley Turner| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 62| BF| D

8/1

Latest win at Doncaster in June. Creditable second of 5 in handicap (8/11) at Brighton (6f, good) 16 days ago, not getting an entirely clear run. Reliable filly who should give her running once more.

Form: 633122

Forecasts

Twilight Dancer (10/3), Hot Chesnut (9/2), Martini Nights (13/2), Annie Law (8/1), Resonance (17/2), Regal Fanfare (9/1), Granary Queen (10/1), Just Janet (10/1), Vinaka (10/1), Sayifyouwill (16/1), Film Star (18/1), Capuchinero (18/1), Comedian Leader (33/1), Revisit (100/1)

TWILIGHT DANCER is firmly on the up and escapes a penalty for her comfortable success at Salisbury 9 days ago, so she gets the nod over the reliable Annie Law. Martini Nights finished well at Newcastle last time and, if she can get going early enough, she's likely to be involved.
