Brooklyn Nine Nine^p¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Warren Fentiman⁽⁷⁾| T: R A Fahey| OR: 83

10/3

On a losing run but he comes here in good nick, poorly drawn when twelfth of 17 in handicap at York (5f, soft) 17 days ago. Needs considering.

Form: 46-4520

(2)

Batal Zabeel⁵¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: N Callan| T: J Tate| OR: 80| D

10/3

Scored at Ripon in June but he's a temperamental sort and was retried in blinkers when only seventh of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 51 days ago on his final run for Kevin Ryan. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence.

Form: 2-71707

Mister Bluebird⁷^{(ex 5)}

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan| T: H Main| OR: 75| D

5/2

Ended a lengthy losing sequence with a career best in winning 9-runner handicap at Bath (5.7f, heavy) 7 days ago. Merits serious consideration under a 5 lb penalty.

Form: 307521

Marching Mac^t¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Grace McEntee⁽³⁾| T: P S McEntee| OR: 72| D

15/8

Is enjoying a fine autumn and emphatically landed 11-runner handicap at Nottingham (5f, heavy) 12 days ago, powering clear last 1f. Hiked up 10 lb but looks the one to beat.

Form: 124121

Forecasts

Marching Mac (15/8), Mister Bluebird (5/2), Brooklyn Nine Nine (10/3), Batal Zabeel (10/3)

MARCHING MAC is thriving at present and strongly fancied to bag a fourth win of the autumn on the back of his facile Nottingham victory last week. Recent Bath scorer Mister Bluebird appeals as the one to chase home Phil McEntee's 3-y-o ahead of Brooklyn Nine Nine.
