C&D winner. In good form until coming in twenty fourth of 27 in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood (6f, heavy) 56 days ago. Sort to bounce back after a break though.

Resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f) in September and poorly drawn when well held in Ayr Silver Cup a week ago. Handily weighted and can get back on track in style here.

Comfortable winner over 7f here in July but she beat only one in 7f York handicap last month. No surprise to see her get back on the premises here however.

Reliable sort who landed 6f Newbury handicap in April. Posted another solid effort when fourth of 25 in Ayr Silver Cup 7 days ago so he's not taken lightly off a 1 lb lower mark here.

C&D winner in July and not disgraced when fourth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 30 days ago, left poorly placed. Enters calculations.

Fair 5f winner as a juvenile. Off 14 months/gelded before posting an encouraging fourth of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Can take a step forward now.

It's now twelve runs since his last win in 2022 and he came in only fourteenth of 20 in Ayr Bronze Cup 8 days ago. Others are more persuasive.

Capitalised on a reduced mark with success in 15-runner handicap at Thirsk (7f, soft) 12 days ago. Back up 5 lb but he can still make his presence felt again.

Forecasts

Royal Dress (4/1), Roach Power (9/2), Bernardo O'Reilly (11/2), Rock Opera (7/1), Knebworth (8/1), Gulliver (17/2), Chairmanoftheboard (9/1), Lakota Blue (11/1), Music Society (18/1), May Sonic (20/1)

15:15 Haydock - 30 September 2023 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

A case can be made for virtually all of these but GULLIVER didn't enjoy the rub of the green in the Ayr Silver Cup and can confirm himself well treated by bouncing back to winning ways. Bernardo O'Reilly came home fourth in that race and seems sure to go well again, while Roach Power, Chairmanoftheboard and May Sonic all warrant plenty of respect too.
