Pasha¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: Cieren Fallon| T: James Owen| OR: 74| D

14/1

Fairly useful for Paul & Oliver Cole (sold for 20,000 gns) but hasn't fired in two starts for James Owen, Hooded for first time, last of 6 in handicap at Ascot (10f, firm, 18/1) 16 days ago. Hood removed and could be worth another chance down markedly in grade for an in form stable.

Form: 7437-06

Sea Regal²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: J P Spencer| T: D O'Meara| OR: 73

8/1

Fairly useful for William Haggas. Sold for 25,000 gns prior to debut for current connections where probably needed the run, eighth of 10 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Drops in class/trip and no surprise to see her feature much more prominently.

Form: 17526-8

(6)

Two B Tanned^p,h²⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Tom Kiely-Marshall⁽⁵⁾| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 65| D

11/2

Produced another enthusiastic front-running display to land the hat-trick, winning 6-runner handicap (8/11) at Musselburgh (9f, good) 24 days ago. In excellent heart but does have more on her plate up in grade.

Form: 00-9111

(4)

Hackney Diamonds²¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S M Levey| T: Ian Williams| OR: 75| C

18/1

Made a successful nursery bow at this track (7f) in July. Well held in stronger races prior to bouncing back to form on final start for Brian Meehan, creditable third of 8 in nursery at Newbury (6f, heavy). Up in trip and will likely need to step forward on stable debut.

(2)

Mandana^h²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 72| BF| D

15/8

1 win from 2 runs this year. Improved without looking particularly suited by the drop back to 7f when 6/4, second of 4 on handicap debut at Brighton (7f, good to firm) 26 days ago, nearest finish. Should be competitive back at 1m.

Form: 2326-12

(3)

Nakaaha²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: D Tudhope| T: J Tate| OR: 71

5/1

Bated Breath filly who possibly needed the run after 4 months off when 11/2, third of 10 in maiden at Thirsk (7f, good) 23 days ago. Could have more to offer on handicap debut.

Form: 52-3

(7)

Tequila²¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: D Egan| T: Raphael Freire| OR: 71

6/1

Only fair form in maidens, unable to match her first two efforts faced with more testing conditions, fourth of 8 in novice at Yarmouth (8f, soft, 9/1). Improvement needed on reappearance/handicap debut.

Form: 844-

(5)

Motabaah²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Marco Ghiani| T: Jane Chapple-Hyam| OR: 67

11/1

Mohaather filly who shaped with definite promise on 2 of her 3 starts in maiden/novice events at up to 7f for Richard Hannon last summer. Switched yards for 10,000 but was below form on stable/handicap debut when well held at Yarmouth (7f) 25 days ago. More needed up in trip.

Form: 656-7

Forecasts

Mandana (15/8), Nakaaha (5/1), Two B Tanned (11/2), Tequila (6/1), Sea Regal (8/1), Motabaah (11/1), Pasha (14/1), Hackney Diamonds (18/1)

The prospect of a truly-run race will only aid the chances of SEA REGAL who was fairly useful for William Haggas and makes most appeal dropping in trip and class on only her second start for David O'Meara. Fellow class dropper Pasha could be worth another chance for the in form James Owen team, while Two B Tanned should give a good account in her bid for a fourth successive victory.
