Dyonisos⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Billy Loughnane| T: Ian Williams| OR: 95| D

8/1

Goken colt who has developed into a useful performer in France this year, making it 3 wins from last 4 starts in 11-runner handicap at Dieppe (5.5f, soft) 54 days ago. Acquired by new connections for €97,000 since and interesting to see what the market makes of him.

Form: 78-1211

Ruby's Profit^t⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: K Shoemark| T: Dr R Newland & J Insole| OR: 92| CD

11/2

Speedy front-runner who burnt off her rivals over C&D in May and ran another cracker when third in 3-y-o "Dash" at Epsom in June. Shaped much better than bare result when seventh in big-field Royal Ascot contest latest, the stiff finish proving her undoing. Return to this track a big plus.

Form: 3-12137

Getreadytorumble²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-4| J: Tom Marquand| T: J Channon| OR: 90| CD

15/2

Progressive type who supplemented his small-field Brighton maiden success with a decisive C&D handicap debut victory in June. Ran another solid race when third of 7 in handicap at Sandown (5f) 27 days ago, that despite becoming unbalanced inside final 1f. Each-way possibilities.

Nad Alshiba Green²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Rossa Ryan| T: M Appleby| OR: 89| D

7/1

Bagged a couple of nurseries at 2 yrs and kicked on again this season, resuming winning ways at Nottingham (5f) before an excellent second behind a totally unexposed one at Sandown (5f) 4 weeks back. 3 lb rise looks fair and she's an interesting runner once more. Connections won this last year.

Form: 34-2312

Marty Hopkirk²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Oisin Murphy| T: D Loughnane| OR: 89| D

16/1

Progressive son of Kodi Bear who opened account at Wolverhampton (5.1f) in May. Finished fifth in listed company next time prior to a career-best effort when runner-up on handicap debut at Doncaster (5f) 4 weeks ago. This is tougher but highly unlikely he's reached his limit.

Form: 0152

Dan Tucker¹³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: R L Moore| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 88| D

7/2

Deservedly off the mark in an Ayr maiden (6f) in May and progressed further in handicaps, runner-up at York prior to quickly putting the race to bed when gap appeared at Pontefract (5f) 2 weeks ago. That needn't prove his limit for all this demands more up 4 lb.

Form: 2-21521

Brosay^b¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: David Probert| T: P Attwater| OR: 87| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Improved model on AW for this yard and proved every bit as effective back on turf over 5f when runner-up at Sandown in April. Far from disgraced either start since, unlucky not to finish closer when sixth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 18 days ago, not clear run. Each-way claims.

Form: 262206

Naana's Sparkle²⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Charles Bishop| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 83| D

15/2

Eased in weights/down in grade he capitalised when doubling his career tally at Redcar (5f, firm) on penultimate start. Matched that level when good second of 8 in handicap at Haydock (5f) 26 days ago (well clear of remainder). Another holding each-way claims.

Form: 4-33812

Hi Lord⁴⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: J Fanning| T: Kieran Burke| OR: 79| D

11/1

Due Diligence gelding who left debut effort in his wake when landing 4-runner Catterick novice (5f, heavy) in October. Entitled to have needed his reappearance/stable debut effort after 9 months off when fourth of 7 in novice at Bath (5f) in June but goes handicapping now in a very warm contest.

Form: 21-4

Winchurch⁴⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: Frederick Larson| T: M Appleby| OR: 78| D

40/1

Had eased a little more in weights and benefited from drop back in to 0-75 company when resuming winning ways at Leicester (5f) in June. Not ideally placed when down the field at York (5f) since but this will demand further progress.

Form: 2-75510

Wheels Of Fire¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: S Hitchcott| T: R Hannon| OR: 78| D

14/1

Yet to score this term but he's shaping up well, twice hampered from over 1f out when third of 6 at Catterick (6f, good) 15 days ago. Certainly has wins in him from this mark on that evidence and twice gone well here.

Form: 5-62933

Star Chorus^h,t²⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-4| J: S De Sousa| T: A M Balding| OR: 76| D

25/1

Exploits mixed following breakthrough victory at Southwell in January but seemingly benefited from application of first-time tongue strap when adding to his tally in 4-runner handicap at Chepstow (5f) 4 weeks back. Nudged up just 1 lb but suspicion he may find a few too good on this occasion.

Form: 176201

Speed Of Maajid^p⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-2| J: Hollie Doyle| T: R M H Cowell| OR: 73| BF| D

28/1

Made a winning handicap debut at Yarmouth (5.2f) in June but has run below his best on 2 of his 3 starts since, a little short of room after the start when third of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, good, 5/4) 9 days ago. Looks to have a fair bit to find if he's to play a lead role here, however.

Dan Tucker (7/2), Ruby's Profit (11/2), Nad Alshiba Green (7/1), Naana's Sparkle (15/2), Getreadytorumble (15/2), Kinetic Force (15/2), Dyonisos (8/1), The Man (8/1), Fluorescence (10/1), Brosay (11/1), Hi Lord (11/1), Wheels Of Fire (14/1), Marty Hopkirk (16/1), Star Chorus (25/1), Speed Of Maajid (28/1), Winchurch (40/1)

A highly-competitive 3-y-o handicap with the thriving NAD ALSHIBA GREEN fancied to make a bold bid to supplement her connections' victory in this race 12 months ago. She arrives having shaped well behind a completely unexposed rival at Sandown 4 weeks ago and a forecast strong pace to aim at ought to play firmly to her strengths again. Speedy front-runner Ruby's Profit is similarly thriving and could be hard to catch, whilst The Man and Wheels of Fire are also of firm interest.
