Arran^t⁴¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: George Downing| T: Oliver Cole| OR: 85| C

10/1

Has shown fair form in handicaps this summer, fourth of 9 in handicap at Leicester (18/1) 41 days ago, doing best work late on. Might prefer a return to 7f.

Form: 100-344

(8)

Dapper Valley^p⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: Cam Hardie| T: James Owen| OR: 80| D

13/2

Rejuvenated since joining new yard, winning last two starts after a poor run. Won by a short head in handicap at Chester (5/6) 8 days ago, racing freely and just holding on when challenged. Remains of interest despite stepping back up in grade, having been rated as high as 94 in the past.

Form: 983911

Far Above The Law^p¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Christian Howarth⁽³⁾| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 82| D

11/1

Has shown ability with a good second at York, before finishing seventh of 11 in handicap at Carlisle (7/1) 19 days ago when racing far too freely in first-time visor. Cheekpieces back on could help return to previous form.

Form: 102657

The Quiet Gent^b¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Rossa Ryan| T: R M Beckett| OR: 82| BF| D

15/2

Inconsistent performer who returned to best form when 2nd of 7 in 7f handicap at Kempton (3/1) 17 days ago, making good late headway in first-time blinkers. Drop back to 6f on turf should be suitable based on previous form.

Form: 1-26072

(2)

Kinetic Force^t⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Benoit D L Sayette| T: D Donovan| OR: 81

12/1

Coul Angel¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: R Havlin| T: M Appleby| OR: 79| BF| D

5/2

Shows better form over 6f than 7f, finishing sixth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (2/1) 12 days ago possibly needing the run after a break. Still has some strong form from earlier in the season.

Form: 184726

(5)

Inns Of Fear^t⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: Billy Loughnane| T: G Boughey| OR: 70

Yet to win in 7 starts. Poor effort when 6th of 7 in novice at Chester (7/1) 8 days ago in first-time cheekpieces. Cheekpieces removed for return to 6f.

Forecasts

Coul Angel (5/2), The Dragon King (7/2), Bob Mali (9/2), Dapper Valley (13/2), The Quiet Gent (15/2), Thunder Blue (17/2), Arran (10/1), Far Above The Law (11/1), Kinetic Force (12/1), Inns Of Fear (20/1)

BOB MALI has returned to his best form, making encouraging late headway when second in a competitive Doncaster handicap recently. The rejuvenated Dapper Valley brings solid credentials having won his last two starts, most recently just holding on at Chester. Thunder Blue could also figure if reproducing his recent Salisbury success.
