Selected odds by:

(6)

Camarrate¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: H Crouch| T: Grant Tuer| D

9/1

10/1, built on debut promise after 6 months off to win 8-runner minor event at Kempton (12f) 18 days ago, battling well. Should have more to offer.

Form: 61

(8)

Juana Ines^h1⁸³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: K Shoemark| T: H & R Charlton

7/2

Fairly useful ex-French filly who landed 8-runner maiden at Clairefontaine (10.9f, good) in July. Can do better for his new yard so needs considering.

Form: 51

(9)

Hampden Park²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A M Balding

5/1

Promising Sea the Moon colt who was gelded before coming in third of 11 in maiden at Kempton (12f) 23 days ago. Has more to offer. In the mix.

Form: 43

(4)

Hurtle Wallop¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Rossa Ryan| T: J R Boyle

100/1

40/1, 19½ lengths fourth of 8 to Camarrate in minor event at Kempton (12f) on debut 18 days ago. Needs to take a big step forward.

Form: 4

(5)

Through The Ages²⁰⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: T P Queally| T: G & J Moore| BF

25/1

Golden Horn gelding who was placed in 10f Newcastle maiden and 11f Kempton novice in March for Charlie Appleby. Remains open to improvement after a lay-off for his new yard. Not ruled out.

Form: 23

(7)

Scenic²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Saffie Osborne| T: E Walker| OR: 95| BF

8/11

Useful filly but she failed to land the odds when second of 8 in minor event at Salisbury (9.9f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Leading form claims if back on her A-game.

Form: 2-54372

(1)

Scylla²⁹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Harry Davies| T: C Fellowes

66/1

22/1, running-on third of 6 in minor event at Kempton (11f) on her debut 9 months ago. Plenty more is needed after her lay-off.

Form: 3-

(3)

Waxing Gibbous²³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: D Menuisier

25/1

Twice-raced maiden and fair form shown, fifth of 11 in 1m4f maiden at Kempton 23 days ago when left poorly placed. Remains with potential.

Form: 35

Forecasts

Scenic (8/11), Juana Ines (7/2), Hampden Park (5/1), Syllabus (5/1), Camarrate (9/1), Waxing Gibbous (25/1), Through The Ages (25/1), Scylla (66/1), Hurtle Wallop (100/1)

Andrew Balding's Sea The Moon colt HAMPDEN PARK shaped well after an absence when third at Kempton and is fancied to get off the mark at the chief expense of Scenic who holds the best form but has to shrug off a below-par Salisbury second last time out. Camarrate and Juana Ines both have better days ahead of them and merit plenty of respect too.
