5/4

5/4, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW) 12 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so big shout in his hat-trick bid under a 5 lb penalty.

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Dylan Hogan| T: Miss J Feilden| OR: 62| CD

9/2

C&D winner. Winner here in September. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, solid third of 12 in handicap (15/2) at this course (14f) 30 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-8| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 59

Bristol Hill^h¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 57| CD

10/1

C&D winner. Too free when only seventh of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 15/2) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Others more persuasive.

Form: 47946-7

Mirabello Bay^b⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: L P Keniry| T: J S Moore| OR: 57| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 4/1) 8 days ago. Back up in trip. Looks competitive on form.

Forecasts

Upepo (5/4), Eloped (9/2), Jumeira Vision (13/2), Easter Island (17/2), Bristol Hill (10/1), Mirabello Bay (11/1), Classic Speed (16/1), Hurtle (18/1)

UPEPO is thriving and looks very much the way to go under a 5 lb penalty for his emphatic Lingfield victory. Easter Island appeals as the one to chase home Tony Carroll's hat-trick seeker ahead of in-form pair Eloped and Mirabello Bay.
