Marry The Night^p³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Harry Russell| T: T D Easterby| OR: 54

6/1

Struggling for form, sixth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (25/1) 31 days ago, never dangerous in first-time blinkers. Cheekpieces back on today for this drop in grade.

Form: 28-5876

Contest²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Jonny Peate| T: Paul Collins| OR: 52

8/1

Shown little in three maiden/novice starts, finishing eighth of 9 in maiden at Redcar (200/1) 20 days ago. Steps up to 1m for handicap debut which may suit based on breeding.

Form: 608

Almutraf^p1⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Ben Robinson| T: B Ellison| OR: 52

4/1

Won a Newcastle AW handicap in June (25/1) but has been below form in three subsequent runs. Twelfth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (7f AW) (11/1) 8 days ago, when poorly placed throughout and always behind. First-time cheekpieces applied today and capable of better when things fall right.

Form: 7-71950

Tootsie¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: J P Sullivan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 52| BF

9/4

Showed improved form when second of 12 in 7f handicap at Thirsk (28/1) on penultimate start. Similar form when third of 8 in 7f handicap at Beverley (13/8) 19 days ago, chased leader but couldn't quicken in final furlong. Has found a good level of form recently and seems likely to go well again.

Form: 96-7823

Ribston Pippin²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: P J McDonald| T: Lemos Souza| OR: 50

9/1

Showed little in three maiden starts, finishing 5th twice before seventh of 11 in maiden at Yarmouth (150/1) 24 days ago where raced off the pace and made little impression. Steps up to 1m for handicap debut.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Cam Hardie| T: Ollie Pears| OR: 46

7/2

Modest maiden who ran well when third of 9 at Beverley (10f) in June in first-time cheekpieces. However, was too free when below form back there last time and now drops back in trip.

TOOTSIE has found a good level of form recently, placing at both Thirsk and Beverley, and appeals as the most solid option faced with a similar test. Almutraf won at Newcastle in June and gets first-time cheekpieces today, which could see him get back on track after some below-par efforts, while Contest could show more now handicapping at a low level with the 1f longer trip likely to be in his favour based on his pedigree.
