13/2
Dual course winner in 2021 but below his best last year and hasn't fared any better in 2 starts this summer, seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (17.2f) last time. Has dropped further in the weights, but return of cheekpieces needs to spark a revival.

Fair form at best but, after 12 months off, he failed to justify favouritism when a well-beaten third in maiden at Uttoxeter (15.8f) in June. Fared no better at Worcester a month later, so he needs to get back on track upped in trip for his handicap debut (cheekpieces reapplied).

Upped further in trip, showed improved form when getting off the mark in mares' handicap at Southwell (24.3f) in July. Subsequently left Stuart Crawford and shaped better than the result when fifth of 9 in handicap at Bangor (23f) earlier this month. Shortlisted.

9/4
Built on earlier promise when opening account in 8-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in June, rallying to lead over 2f out. Could do with brushing up his jumping, but should be suited by this longer trip and he can make his presence felt.

Placed 3 times for Nigel Twiston-Davies last season and, after 11 weeks off, shaped encouragingly on his stable debut when third at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in July. Well treated on old form and he can get off the mark with tongue strap on first time.

Showed more than previously upped in trip when second in C&D maiden in June. Unsuited by the return to shorter when fourth of 9 at Market Rasen (20.6f) last time, so she could fare better now handicapping back at this venue.

Fair at best on Flat for Alice Haynes but has shown little form this year, yet to make much impact over hurdles and he was always behind back on the level last month. Easy enough to look elsewhere.

Showed that he retains some ability when fourth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (24.3f) in June, but virtually refused to race next time and was very slowly away when down the field on his latest outing. Best watched.

Unplaced all 3 starts in Irish points and didn't offer much on her first 3 starts over hurdles. However, upped in trip she showed her first form when third at Perth (23.9f) on her handicap debut at the beginning of the month. Task is now to build on her latest effort.

16:05 Cartmel - 28 August 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

BLENDED STEALTH shaped encouragingly on his stable debut when third at Uttoxeter last month and, with a tongue strap applied, he can build on his latest effort to open his account. Unwanted Attention arrives here on the back of his first success and is feared most upped in trip, with Sunshine Girl completing the shortlist.
