Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: C Lee| T: J Mackie| OR: 60| CD

12/1

C&D winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year, the latest gained here in April. Possibly amiss when last of 9 back here the following month handicap and she's been absent since.

Ravenglass^b²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Joe Leavy| T: A Wintle| OR: 58| CD

11/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Chepstow in May. 4/1, third of 5 in handicap at that course (8.1f, good to soft) 28 days ago, slowly away. Not without each-way hope.

Form: 801293

(9)

Haworth Star²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Elizabeth Gale⁽⁵⁾| T: M Young| OR: 58

50/1

66/1, last of 5 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft) 28 days ago and he's probably best watched for now.

Form: 1068-95

(3)

Bomb Squad^p²²

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Ryan Kavanagh⁽⁵⁾| T: J Mackie| OR: 57| C| D

12/1

Course winner. 22/1, below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 22 days ago and others make more appeal.

Form: 143377

(10)

Bona Verba¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Marco Ghiani| T: P D Evans| OR: 60

17/2

Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Sandown (8f, soft, 50/1) 18 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and sizeable step forward needed.

Form: 9-938

(6)

Pure Artistry^t²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Jack Callan⁽⁵⁾| T: M L W Bell| OR: 60

11/1

Winner at Windsor in July. 9/2, sixth of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good) 22 days ago, missing break. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 9-64126

Groundsman^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 60

5/1

10/3, fifth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 19 days ago, needing stiffer test. Wouldn't be without a chance on this tapeta debut if he were to put his best foot forward.

Form: 846865

(4)

Triggered²³

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: Jack Doughty| T: D M Loughnane| OR: 56| CD

4/1

C&D winner. Twenty three runs since last win in 2023. Respectable third of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good, 12/1) 23 days ago, not clear run. Merits consideration.

Form: 252433

Forecasts

Guiteau (2/1), Harbour Vision (7/2), Bizarre Law (4/1), Triggered (4/1), Groundsman (5/1), Bona Verba (17/2), How's The Guvnor (10/1), Ravenglass (11/1), Pure Artistry (11/1), Bomb Squad (12/1), Fistral Beach (12/1), Haworth Star (50/1)

TRIGGERED's losing run continues to mount, but there have certainly been signs that he could be about to buck that trend in recent months and the 9-y-o is now 16 lb lower in the weights compared to when last successful, which was over this very C&D. He shades preference ahead of fellow C&D winners Bizarre Law and Guiteau. The latter is bound to prove popular on the back of his decisive display at Catterick last week, but the ground was desperate that day and he's not the most consistent overall.
