4/1

Won over C&D in July, but finished 12th of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (9f) at 22/1 ten days ago in a deeper race. Return to this C&D/grade could help spark a revival.

14/1

Distinct Spirit¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Jason Watson| T: D & C Kubler| OR: 76

17/2

Won a novice race at Salisbury (July 2024) and shaped as though retaining ability when fifth of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (20/1) 16 days ago. Return to 1m looks the right move.

Form: 15-5

Gorgeous Mr George¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: Kyle Strydom| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 78| CD

11/2

Has gained all 3 wins at this venue and ran right up to form when second of 12 at Newmarket (8/1) 11 days ago, struggling with undulations before finishing strongly. Returns to preferred venue where previous success suggests he'll be a big player.

Form: 141622

Dashing Dick^p¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-9| J: K Shoemark| T: W Stone| OR: 75| C

22/1

Inconsistent performer in handicaps this season. Eighth of 13 in handicap at Newmarket (16/1) 16 days ago, failing to build on Windsor promise.

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Ray Dawson| T: R Varian| OR: 77

11/1

Won a 7f handicap at Thirsk (10/1) when fitted with hood 52 days ago but was sixth of 11 in handicap at Chester (18/1) 23 days ago, merely passing beaten horses. May benefit from returning to a more conventional track.

Form: 30-6816

(4)

Lord Montague¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Tom Marquand| T: J Channon| OR: 77

9/2

Won a maiden at Brighton (7f) and easily best effort when of 15 in competitive handicap at Newbury (8f) at 14/1 16 days ago, making headway under pressure and running on well in the final furlong. 3 lb rise seems very fair and limit not yet reached.

Form: 262133

Brave Byreflection²⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Rossa Ryan| T: Alice Haynes| OR: 76

10/1

Noble Guest²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: J F Egan| T: G G Margarson| OR: 74| C

12/1

Won twice at Yarmouth over 7f this season but form has been inconsistent elsewhere. Seen to good effect when successful here 20 days ago, well-positioned near rail close to pace. Step up to 8f and 4 lb rise to deal with.

Beauty By My Side²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: Ashley Lewis⁽⁵⁾| T: J Parr| OR: 72

22/1

Looked to be going the wrong way before getting back on track with third of 9 in handicap at Kempton Park (22/1) 21 days ago on return to AW. Needs to back that up.

Form: 0-25573

Corundum^t,p²¹

25/1

Maiden who was ridden aggressively when seventh of 10 in handicap at Kempton (12/1) 21 days ago. Tends to falter in closing stages so others preferred.

Form: 454487

Forecasts

Jimmy Speaking (4/1), Lord Montague (9/2), Gorgeous Mr George (11/2), Midnight's Dream (7/1), Distinct Spirit (17/2), Brave Byreflection (10/1), Fire Flame (11/1), Noble Guest (12/1), Spirit Of Leros (12/1), Kalamunda (12/1), Almekarem (14/1), Big Sip (20/1), Dashing Dick (22/1), Beauty By My Side (22/1), Corundum (25/1), Dion Baker (50/1)

LORD MONTAGUE ran a cracker when third in a 3-y-o handicap at Newbury 16 days ago and he looks a major player eased slightly in class. Gorgeous Mr George, a three-time course winner, returns to his preferred venue after a strong-finishing second at Newmarket, with Midnight's Dream also of interest.
