Dalileo¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Peter Kavanagh⁽³⁾| T: Miss L Harrison| OR: 95| CD

13/2

Winner here (23.9f) in June and has run well in 4 visits to this course since, pulling clear of the remainder when third of 10 on his latest outing 16 days ago. Could be in the mix once more back down in trip.

Form: 123F53

Ithaka¹³³

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Ring| T: R Potter| OR: 93

33/1

Justified strong support in a Wincanton handicap (21.4f) in March last year but largely well below that level last season. Well held at Ffos Las (23.9f) when last seen in May, though he's eased further in the weights as a result.

Form: 0PP39-7

One Step Up¹⁰⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Sam Coltherd| T: W Coltherd| OR: 90

12/1

Didn't make much impact for Nicky Richards, but left his stable debut effort behind when runner-up in novice handicap at this course (16.2f) in June. Task is now to back up his latest run returned to this longer trip after a break.

Form: 6P670-2

Limerick Leader^p²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: S Bowen| T: O Murphy| OR: 86

7/4

Fair handicap hurdler at best but mixed form over fences for Rose Dobbin last season. Having had a wind op, disappointing on stable debut in July, but back hurdling he ran better when fourth at Worcester (20f) last time. Interesting with cheekpieces reapplied.

Form: 826-4P4

Inspector Lynley^p⁷³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: James Bowen| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 82

7/2

Has returned in good heart this season, placed on his first 2 starts before justifying favouritism when getting off the mark in novice handicap at Stratford (22f) in July. Can give another good account.

Form: 45P-231

Emily Wade^h,t³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Jonathan England| T: S England| OR: 80| D

20/1

With a tongue tie added, capitalised on her falling mark when scoring in good style at Southwell (20.4f) in June. Well below form all 3 starts since, but she remains well treated on old form if bouncing back returned to this shorter trip.

Form: 69-1895

Lenebane^t,v⁸⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Aaron Anderson⁽⁵⁾| T: R Menzies| OR: 79

11/1

Remains a maiden, but with a visor refitted she's fared better from her reduced mark on her last 2 starts, finding only a next-time-out winner too strong at Market Rasen (20.6f) in July. Can give her running once more.

Form: 53-9922

Blended Stealth^v¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Sean Quinlan| T: Lizzie Quinlan| OR: 77| BF

6/1

Long-standing maiden but made the frame on his first 3 starts of the campaign, going close when runner-up at this course (23.9f) in July. However, below-par effort when sixth of 10 back here 16 days ago. Visor reapplied back down in trip.

Form: 77-4236

Princess Unique^h,t²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Shane Fenelon⁽⁵⁾| T: P & M Bowen| OR: 75

50/1

First form over hurdles when fourth of 9 in handicap at Market Rasen (20.6f) in July. Failed to repeat that effort, though, when pulled up at Worcester (23f) the following month. Others more persuasive.

Form: 888-U4P

Don't Look Back^p¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: D R Fox| T: W Young Jnr| OR: 72

28/1

Fair handicapper on the Flat but no better than poor form over hurdles for current yard, off the pace when hampered and unseating at the fifth at this C&D 16 days ago. Looks to be up against it.

Form: 56085U

Forecasts

Limerick Leader (7/4), Inspector Lynley (7/2), Blended Stealth (6/1), Dalileo (13/2), Lenebane (11/1), One Step Up (12/1), Emily Wade (20/1), Don't Look Back (28/1), Ithaka (33/1), Princess Unique (50/1)

Reverted to hurdling, LIMERICK LEADER fared much better than on his stable debut when fourth at Worcester at the beginning of the month and he could be ready to take advantage of his reduced mark. He can get the better of the consistent Dalileo, while Inspector Lynley is also considered in his current form.
