Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Jim Crowley| T: W J Knight| OR: 82| D

6/1

Latest win at Haydock in July. 10/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Back up in trip. Ought to be in the shake-up.

Attila The Honey¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Loughnane| T: C Johnston| OR: 88| C

9/2

Course winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Newbury in July. Last of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (14f, good to firm, 8/1) 18 days ago so needs to bounce back.

Form: 641297

(4)

Pagan Sun³³

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: S Woods| OR: 80

11/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable third of 12 in novice (16/1) at this course (12.1f) 33 days ago. No forlorn hope on his handicap debut.

Form: 6-663

(7)

Cock And Bull⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: A J Farragher| T: M L W Bell| OR: 77| BF| D

7/2

3 wins from 9 runs this year, latest at Sandown in July. Good seventh of 12 in handicap (10/1) at this course (12.1f) 6 days ago so has to be taken seriously off a 1 lb lower mark.

Form: 211237

Forecasts

Pappano (2/1), Cock And Bull (7/2), Attila The Honey (9/2), Pagan Sun (11/2), Story Horse (6/1), Charging Thunder (14/1), Fleurman (25/1)

This is wide open but COCK AND BULL, already a three-time scorer in 2024, rates just the pick of these weights so edges the vote at the chief expense of the reliable Story Horse. In-form pair Pappano and Charging Thunder can both have a say too.
