Belcamo^p1³⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: L Morris| T: A M Hales| OR: 70

40/1

A fair 1m4f Flat winner for Andew Balding and ran well at this course on debut for current yard. Had been in form over hurdles prior to finishing last of 7 in a Flat handicap at Ascot 30 days ago. Drops in class here however and not ruled out in change of headgear.

Form: 43413-7

Ajdayet⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-1| J: J P Sullivan| T: Mrs R Carr| OR: 69

80/1

Won on AW last year but poor since, finishing last of 8 at Doncaster (40/1) 9 days ago when dropping away quickly. Out of form and has stamina to prove upped markedly in trip.

Form: 41-0798

Swinging London^p,t⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: P J McDonald| T: J Mackie| OR: 68| CD

11/1

Performs best on AW with two C&D wins but was seventh of 11 at Southwell (40/1) 8 days ago, working back to form after break when denied a run 2f out. Back on last winning mark and interesting to see if market expects him to return to form.

Damascus Steel^v¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Cieren Fallon| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 68

13/2

Finishing second at Newcastle in June. Sixth of 13 in handicap at Kempton Park (5/1) 12 days ago, shaping as if back in form and needing more emphasis on stamina. Stepping back up in trip should suit on that evidence and he's been given a chance by the handicapper.

Form: 849286

Action Pact⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-11| J: Joanna Mason| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 65

9/1

Showed promise when second on debut at Pontefract but has struggled since, finishing seventh of 11 in handicap at Ayr (28/1) 49 days ago when failing to get competitive stepping up in trip. Tries 14f for first time but needs more.

Form: 2787

Louie's Folly⁴³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: J Mitchell| T: James Horton| OR: 69

16/1

Lightly-raced filly who may have been flattered in a steadily-run race when fourth of 6 in a 12f novice at Southwell (200/1) 43 days ago. Some quality in her pedigree and she could improve now handicapping over a longer trip.

Form: 674

Me And Bobby Mcgee¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: C Johnston| OR: 69

14/1

Won a handicap in July (blinkers) but form has declined rapidly, finishing fourth of 5 at Musselburgh (13/2) 17 days ago, displaying temperament. Blinkers now removed for first attempt on AW but needs to bounce back.

New York Minute^b1¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: H Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 68| BF

5/2

Decent pedigree and has shown more promise in handicaps since being upped in trip. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (6/4) 19 days ago, shaping like a stayer over 17f when running on late. No surprise to see him make an impact in first-time blinkers dropped back in trip for all-weather debut.

Form: 64-444

(3)

Creating Mischief²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: A Mullen| T: Jedd O'Keeffe| OR: 64

33/1

Lightly-raced gelding is bred to be useful and has shown some promise in qualifying runs, finished seventh of 13 in maiden at Southwell (50/1) 24 days ago, racing off the pace but plugging on late. Making handicap debut with step up in trip expected to suit.

Form: 587

(5)

Double Meaning³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Marco Ghiani| T: John Berry| OR: 63

3/1

Ex-Godolphin gelding attracted support upped in trip on handicap debut when fifth of 6 at Doncaster (13/2) 37 days ago, rallying from over 1f out having not been ideally placed. Now stepped up further in trip and has every chance of staying on pedigree. Interesting to see if the money comes again.

Form: 54-95

(8)

Captain Robert³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 8-13| J: George Wood| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 62

8/1

Has offered something to work with in qualifying runs, for all he was well held when sixth of 7 in 11.6f novice at Lingfield (20/1) 34 days ago when. Should be better suited to handicaps and could improve over this longer trip.

Form: 4-36

(11)

Ridgemaster^v³⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Joe Leavy| T: H Palmer| OR: 56

12/1

Well beaten in all 4 starts, including when ninth of 10 in handicap at Chester (20/1) 30 days ago when upped in trip. Unproven at this longer distance.

Form: 559-9

Forecasts

New York Minute (5/2), Double Meaning (3/1), Damascus Steel (13/2), Captain Robert (8/1), Action Pact (9/1), Swinging London (11/1), Ridgemaster (12/1), Me And Bobby Mcgee (14/1), Louie's Folly (16/1), Creating Mischief (33/1), Belcamo (40/1), Ajdayet (80/1)

DAMASCUS STEEL shaped as if back in form at Kempton 12 days ago and has been given a chance by the handicapper. The step back up to 14f should suit and he may be able to resume winning ways. New York Minute looks a thorough stayer and this lightly-raced sort could have more to offer in first-time blinkers on his all-weather debut, while Belcamo was fairly useful on the Flat for previous connections and could be more competitive in a change of headgear down in class.
