Ellexis²⁷¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Elisha Whittington⁽³⁾| T: R A Teal| OR: 74

66/1

Eased a little in weights and proved as good as ever when winning 10-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in January, forging clear. Absent since but she returns with her yard amongst the winners and needs considering.

Form: 27464-1

Speriamo²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: A J Farragher| T: P J McBride| OR: 73| C

9/1

Course winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in September. Very good second of 7 in handicap (11/2) at Newmarket (10f, good) 25 days ago, collared final 100 yds. Mark has edged back up a little more but definite claims again.

Form: 586612

Loving Look²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: H Morrison| OR: 77| C

11/8

Held on gamely to open her account in an 11f novice here in August. Similar form when third of 9 in handicap (13/2) at Newbury (12f, good to soft) 26 days ago and she's an interesting runner back on this surface/eased in class.

True Wisdom²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: N Callan| T: C Johnston| OR: 77| BF

9/1

Ran up to best with the run of the race when second at Redcar (10f) on penultimate start. Shade underwhelming when eighth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (10f, good to soft) 21 days ago but not ruled out if bouncing back.

Form: 776428

(2)

Miss Bielsa^t¹²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-11| J: Harry Davies| T: S & E Crisford| OR: 76

33/1

Successful on debut in maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in January. Absent since finishing well held ninth of 10 on handicap debut at Salisbury (9.9f, good to firm) in June. Mark demands improvement back from 4 months off but it remains early days.

Form: 139

(7)

Salamanca City³⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: R Coakley| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 74

15/2

Knocking on the door prior to opening her account at Leicester (10f) in July. Shade disappointing after 8 weeks off when sixth of 8 in handicap back there last month but she appeals as a likely type to bounce back.

Placeholder³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 74

16/1

Dual winner at up to 1m on AW. However, appeared stretched by the trip when sixth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, good to soft, 14/1) 31 days ago. Eased 2 lb ahead of this further step up in trip.

Form: 14-1346

(8)

Bas Bleu^h1⁴²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Saffie Osborne| T: E Walker| OR: 72

8/1

5/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good to firm) 42 days ago, rallying into that position late on. Worth considering with a first-time hood now enlisted.

Form: 328323

(9)

Ever Hopefull²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 69

5/1

Bated Breath filly who again showed fair form when third of 7 in novice at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Represents top stable and further increase in trip could unlock further progress on handicap debut.

Form: 733

(6)

Alvesta²⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Jason Watson| T: A M Balding| OR: 66

14/1

Bounced back to best when second at Lingfield (10f) on penultimate start but folded as if amiss when last of 9 in handicap (7/2) at Sandown (10f, good) 28 days ago. Steps up in trip returned to all weather but her record now stands at 0-12.

Form: 435529

Forecasts

Loving Look (11/8), Ever Hopefull (5/1), Salamanca City (15/2), Bas Bleu (8/1), Speriamo (9/1), True Wisdom (9/1), Alvesta (14/1), Placeholder (16/1), Miss Bielsa (33/1), Ellexis (66/1)

BAS BLEU went like a well-handicapped filly when runner-up behind a subsequent winner at Newbury on her penultimate start and, having again ran creditably when third at Bath 6 weeks ago, she's worth siding with to confirm her mark a workable one. Course winner Loving Look and handicap debutante Ever Hopefull are others to consider, whilst the returning Ellexis needs monitoring in the market back from a break.
