Selected odds by:
Pretty useful earlier in his career and back on form to take advantage of a reduced mark with all-the-way wins over C&D and at Cartmel in recent months. Suspicion a further 4 lb rise might make him vulnerable on the hat-trick bid.
|
Notched a seventh AW win of 2025 when edging ahead in the dying strides at Lingfield 4 weeks ago. Also successful in a 2m Huntingdon maiden hurdle in May and big player now venturing into handicap company for the first time over hurdles.
|
Has been rejuvenated by a stable switch, winning for a third time in 5 starts when seeing off 8 rivals at Newton Abbot (17f, good to soft) 4 weeks ago. Only had to be pushed out to do so and a further 7 lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing.
|
Creditable third in a C&D handicap in July but not in quite the same form when fourth here 3 weeks ago. Being eased 2 lb can only help but others are more persuasive.
|
Wouldn't be the most reliable overall but managed to get his head in front twice over fences last year, including here. Placed in 2 small-field C&D handicaps this summer but this veteran will need to pull out a bit more to resume winning ways here.
|
A fairly useful maiden on the Flat for Ed Walker. Did manage to win a C&D maiden hurdle in June but the form is only modest and he was comfortably held in a Uttoxeter handicap last time.
|
Disputing third when falling soon after 2 out in 2½m Bangor handicap in April. Weakened having been second approaching 2 out when fifth back there 5 weeks later, suggesting this return to 2m could suit back from 4 months off.
|
Fair Flat winner who seems to be getting her act together over hurdles, reaching the frame in handicaps over C&D and at Stratford on her last 2 outings.

Forecasts
Turpin Gold (7/4), Graecia (7/2), Eagles Gold (4/1), High Court Judge (13/2), Grey Skies (10/1), Crown Of India (16/1), Douglas Dc (20/1), Mix Of Clover (22/1)
Examples of the training skills of the prolific James Owen don't come much better than HIGH COURT JUDGE who is taken to land a remarkable ninth success of the year across both codes. Turpin Gold is thriving for Tom Lacey and is next on the list ahead of Graecia.
