Recon Mission²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 9-11| J: N Callan| T: A W Carroll| OR: 64| CD

3/1

C&D winner. Twenty-two runs since last win in 2022. 7/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm) 20 days ago. Booking of Callan a plus but couple of others make greater appeal for win purposes here.

Betweenthesticks^p,t⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: George Bass⁽³⁾| T: J Channon| OR: 61| D

2/1

Comes here on a lengthy losing run but returned to form from out of the blue (with cheekpieces/tongue fitted) when second of 8 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 5 days ago, headed dying strides. On a very appealing mark if backing that up here.

Mokaatil^t⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 9-8| J: Millie Wonnacott⁽⁵⁾| T: Ian Williams| OR: 61| D

9/4

Comes here firmly on a roll, rattling off a Chepstow hat-trick (at 5/6f) in recent weeks. Goes unpenalized for latest success and no surprise to see him have a ig say once more returned to the minimum trip.

Colors Of Freedom⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 8-10| J: Joe Leavy⁽⁵⁾| T: Joe Ponting| OR: 49| CD

11/2

C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) 7 days ago, no extra only late on. Not out of things.

Storm Venture^t²²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-7| J: S D Bowen⁽³⁾| T: T Faulkner| OR: 45

16/1

Maiden who was operating some way below his best when last seen on all-weather earlier this year. Looks best watched back from 7 months off.

MOAATIL has thrived in recent weeks, bringing up a quick-fire hat-trick at Chepstow 7 days ago. Unpenalized for that success, he gets the nod to continue the good work back at the minimum trip. Betweenthesticks can emerge as the chief threat with a repeat of his close second at Bath last week.
