Selected odds by:

(1)

Corinthia Knight^p¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: Joshua Bryan| T: A Watson| OR: 64| D

3/1

Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Good second of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good, 9/1) 18 days ago. Remains on a good mark back up 3 lb and should make his presence felt.

Form: 940562

(3)

Fact Or Fable^p¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Mr Taylor Fisher⁽³⁾| T: J S Moore| OR: 61

11/1

Five wins from 20 runs this year, the latest at Chepstow in August. Good second of 12 in handicap at the same course (7.1f, good, 8/1) 18 days ago. Clearly in good form but probably a shade too high in the weights for now.

Form: 781312

(2)

On Edge^p¹¹^{(ex 5)}

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Gina Mangan⁽³⁾| T: C Mason| OR: 56| D

5/2

Two wins from 5 runs this year. 7/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Obvious claims under a penalty with this step back up in trip no problem.

Form: 9-31341

(5)

Gatwick Kitten^t²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: James Doyle| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 60| D

11/2

Three wins from 7 runs this year. 11/2, bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 28 days ago, faring best of those held up. One to consider with James Doyle booked.

Form: 011416

(8)

Iconic Knight¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 9-7| J: William Cox| T: J L Flint| OR: 60| D

16/1

17/2, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this course (8f, soft) 14 days ago. Down in trip and while he's edged down to an attractive mark, one or two of these make more appeal for win purposes.

Form: 987773

(6)

Gunmetal²⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 9-4| J: Finley Marsh| T: B R Johnson| OR: 57| CD

14/1

C&D winner. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap (80/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) 27 days ago. Needs to bounce back in a major way.

Form: 346/9-00

(4)

Salta Resta^h,t²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Callum Shepherd| T: V R A Dartnall| OR: 55| D

5/1

Temperamental sort. 10/1, didn't need to improve to win 15-runner handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm) 22 days ago. More on his plate here following a 4 lb rise.

Form: 47-3461

(7)

Moorgate¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: Harry Davies| T: P G Murphy| OR: 47

10/1

33/1, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Record stands at 0-12 but he's certainly not without hope.

Form: 966824

Forecasts

On Edge (5/2), Corinthia Knight (3/1), Salta Resta (5/1), Gatwick Kitten (11/2), Moorgate (10/1), Fact Or Fable (11/1), Gunmetal (14/1), Iconic Knight (16/1)

ON EDGE looked better than ever when coming from well off the pace to land a 5f Chepstow handicap last week and is taken to follow up under a penalty here. He may have most to fear from Gatwick Kitten, who shouldn't be judged too harshly on his latest effort, prior to which he was in good form. Corinthia Knight and Moorgate both make each-way appeal.
