C&D winner. Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap (11/4) at Yarmouth (5.2f, good) 3 days ago, readily. Carries penalty. Getting back on the up for his new yard and rates as shortlist material.

Three-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 12 runs this year. Bit below form 3¼ lengths fifth of 9 to Accrual in handicap at this C&D (14/1) 31 days ago. Has fallen to a workable mark.

C&D winner. Good second at Redcar in August and not really seen to best effect on either start since, so not ruled out of making greater impact this time.

Good third to Accrual at C&D on penultimate start was encouraging but he followed that with a poor effort at York last time. Others more persuasive.

Didn't need to improve to win 9-runner handicap at this C&D (12/1) 31 days ago. Headstong nature means he always comes with risks attache but he's not taken lightly.

Latest win at Wolverhampton in September, dominating from the front. 22/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 31 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Others make greater appeal.

Lovat Scout33

Very much caught the eye returning from 11 months off when good fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (10/1) 33 days ago, keeping on late after being hampered at the start. May prove best over 6f but merits respect again.

Spirit Of Applauseb22

Ended a losing run in 14-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) in September but failed to repeat that effort back on turf when seventh of 14 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Something to find on form.

Forecasts

Sturlasson (11/4), Accrual (7/2), Spirit Of Applause (6/1), Lovat Scout (7/1), Rogue Bullet (8/1), Sugar Hill Babe (10/1), Night On Earth (10/1), Ziggy's Missile (12/1), Blinky (16/1)

17:55 Southwell - 24 October 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

STURLASSON has found his mojo again for the John Ryan yard and can defy a penalty to take his record to 3 wins from 4 starts for his new trainer. Accrual is up only 2 lb for last month's C&D success and is next on the shortlist, with Lovat Scout also considered after an eye-catching return.
