Liv My Life^p¹⁰⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-0| J: Marco Ghiani| T: S C Williams| OR: 70

6/1

17/2, tenth of 14 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW), unsuited by way race developed. Off 105 days and it's probably best to look elsewhere on this occasion.

Form: 167530

H Key Lails^p³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Tommie Jakes⁽⁵⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 69| D

16/1

Two wins from 4 runs this year. 14/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Brighton (8f, good to firm) 31 days ago, having run of race. 3 lb rise looks about right, but he'll need to raise his game another notch in order to complete the hat-trick.

Form: 31-4411

(9)

Left Over Love²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 72

9/2

Lightly-raced winner. Successful at Southwell in February. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 23 days ago, slowly away. Improvement needed.

Form: 2-214

(1)

Yuvraaj¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Billy Loughnane| T: M Botti| OR: 71| D

9/1

Winner at Kempton in May. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 12/1) 18 days ago. Looks vulnerable.

Form: 7-81654

(2)

Optimatum^p1²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: S D Bowen| T: C Johnston| OR: 68| BF| D

13/2

Winner at Leicester in June. Respectable third of 6 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, good to firm, 8/13) 27 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and he has to enter calculations.

Form: 06-8813

(10)

Dashing Donkey¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 9-2| J: Georgia Dobie| T: W Stone| OR: 58| CD

2/1

9/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 13 days ago, readily. Up 7 lb for that, but he's a strong candidate nonetheless.

Form: 20-3451

(8)

Tequila Star^b1⁵⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: Harry Davies| T: D J S Ffrench Davis| OR: 65

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Newbury (8f, good to firm) 50 days ago, slowly away. Needs to step up now equipped with blinkers.

Form: 725-00

(6)

Charming Fellow⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-10| J: Mason Paetel⁽⁵⁾| T: P W Chapple-Hyam| OR: 59| BF| D

8/1

Sixth of 9 in handicap (3/1) at Doncaster (8f, good) 9 days ago. Entitled to come on for that belated seasonal reappearance, but others make more appeal for win purposes all the same.

Form: 90413-6

Rule 4

Rule 4 applies to all bets - deduction 5p in the pound

Forecasts

Dashing Donkey (2/1), Left Over Love (9/2), Liv My Life (6/1), Castro Aurum (6/1), Optimatum (13/2), Charming Fellow (8/1), Yuvraaj (9/1), Tequila Star (14/1), Singing In Paris (14/1), H Key Lails (16/1), Dashing Roger (16/1)

It could be a 1-2 for the William Stone yard, with DASHING DONKEY, a ready winner over C&D recently, preferred to stablemate Dashing Roger. Though Optimatum was a shade disappointing when turned over at Leicester last month, the first-time cheekpieces may help and he is third choice.
