Sympathise^h,t1⁵⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Rhiain Ingram⁽³⁾| T: V R A Dartnall| OR: 58| BF| D

5/1

Racked up a hat-trick in the first half of the year. Did too much too soon when sixth of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (7f, good to soft, 11/10) in July and that probably shouldn't be taken to suggest the handicapper has got her. Tongue strap on first time. Expected to be bang there.

Form: 7-21116

Marsh Lock^b1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: T E Whelan| T: Ollie Sangster| OR: 60

50/1

Cheekpieces on first time, ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f, 25/1) 21 days ago. Blinkers tried now. Relatively unexposed and no shock were she to fare better in this lower grade but she's a hard one to be confident about.

Form: 56-0989

Guiteau¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Owen Lewis⁽⁷⁾| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 60

22/1

15/2, fifth of 7 in handicap at Brighton (1m, good) 19 days ago but had gone close at Epsom prior to that. Back down in trip. Makes polytrack debut.

Form: 9-60425

First Company¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Loughnane| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 58| BF

10/1

One win from 31 Flat runs. Twenty two runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm, 9/2) 16 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 702437

No Speed Limit^p,t¹⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 9-8| J: L Morris| T: George Baker| OR: 57| D

25/1

Three wins from 67 Flat runs. 11/2 and cheekpieces on first time, last of 9 in handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good) 19 days ago.

7/2

13/2, good second of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Enters calculations.

Oriental Spirit^t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Callum Shepherd| T: W S Kittow| OR: 57| BF| CD

11/2

C&D winner. 6/4, ninth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 23 days ago but had been a creditable third at Bath prior to that.

Form: 694639

Las Cuatro⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Morgan Cole⁽⁵⁾| T: J Butler| OR: 58

25/1

Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Down Royal (5f, good). Off 91 days. First run for yard after leaving Ger Lyons. Worth a look in the betting from a handy draw.

Form: 33-400

(11)

Bungle Bay⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁷⁾| T: H J Evans| OR: 56| D

17/2

Latest win at Wolverhampton in July. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good, 7/1) 49 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 432124

(9)

Diamond Dreamer^b²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: P R Chamings| OR: 57| CD

11/1

Blinkered first time, career best when winning 10-runner C&D handicap 23 days ago, always holding on. Only 3 lb higher and claims if the headgear works as well a second time.

Form: 73-7891

(5)

El Hibri¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: Ian Williams| OR: 52

11/4

Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 6/1, good second of 13 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Tony Carroll.

Forecasts

El Hibri (11/4), Muy Muy Guapo (7/2), Sympathise (5/1), Oriental Spirit (11/2), Bungle Bay (17/2), First Company (10/1), Diamond Dreamer (11/1), Moonlight Dreamer (20/1), Guiteau (22/1), No Speed Limit (25/1), Las Cuatro (25/1), Marsh Lock (50/1)

SYMPATHISE had an excuse when her winning run was ended at Chepstow in July and is worth another chance to show she's still on a favourable mark. Muy Muy Guapo is unlikely to be far away if reproducing the form he showed when second at Salisbury last Friday, while Guiteau showed he can go close off this mark at Epsom 2 starts back.
