Spun To Gold⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P Mulrennan| T: J S Goldie| OR: 54| D

9/4

Showed modest form in handicaps with below-par efforts prior to last outing. Won a 13-runner handicap at Newcastle (10/1) on slow AW 9 days ago, perked up by the removal of the hood and running with enthusiasm. Could be capable of following up if in the same mood.

14/1

Finished fourth of 11 at Lingfield (10f, 11/2) when steadied at start, never dangerous 133 days ago. May be more effective at this shorter trip.

Elvetham³⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: R Havlin| T: C Allen| OR: 55

11/2

Three recent seconds before ninth of 10 in AW handicap at Lingfield (15/2) 37 days ago, racing freely before weakening. Capable of better but needs to settle.

Oselton³⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-7| J: Sean Kirrane| T: Craig Lidster| OR: 54| BF| CD

11/4

Showed marked improvement when winning at this C&D 58 days ago. Fourth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (3/1) 35 days ago, unlucky not to follow up as left with too much to do. Looks one to follow returning to scene of sole victory.

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: D Nolan| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 51| C

12/1

Three consecutive seconds in spring before fifth of 7 in Newcastle handicap (12/1) 35 days ago when still building fitness after a summer break. Previous good form at this course suggests potential improvement.

Von Krolock^p²

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: Paddy Bradley| T: James Owen| OR: 51| BF| D

11/2

Showed decent summer form with a second and fourth in handicaps, but form has declined since, finishing seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8/11) just 2 days ago. Now winless in 18 races, needs to recapture earlier form to be competitive.

Desert Beauty^p¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: S M Levey| T: Dylan Cunha| OR: 50| D

14/1

Finished second twice in September but struggled recently, 12th of 14 at Brighton (16/1) 14 days ago when slowly into stride. Returns to all-weather where form has been mixed.

Magna¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Molly Gunn⁽⁵⁾| T: A W Carroll| OR: 47

18/1

Has finished runner-up multiple times from similar marks and was second of 11 in 7f handicap at Kempton (40/1) 15 days ago, taking strong hold and only lacking extra late on. Could build on that effort at this similar track.

Form: 205052

Twilight Poppy⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: J Mitchell| T: K Frost| OR: 45

50/1

Eighth of 16 in handicap at Yarmouth (80/1) 9 days ago, outpaced 2f out and merely plugged on.

Forecasts

Spun To Gold (9/4), Oselton (11/4), Woodrafff (5/1), Von Krolock (11/2), Elvetham (11/2), Urban Dandy (12/1), Desert Beauty (14/1), Charlatan (14/1), Magna (18/1), Twilight Poppy (50/1)

OSELTON showed marked improvement when winning at this C&D 58 days ago and was unlucky not to follow up at Newcastle when left with too much to do. Returning to the scene of his sole victory looks ideal. Spun To Gold was seemingly perked by the removal of the hood when scoring at Newcastle 9 days ago and he's a big danger. Magna is another to note.
