David Ord's Saturday Nap won and now Ian Ogg has the Sunday selections.
Saturday selections
ROARING HOME - 18:15 Stratford
She’s racing from a career-high mark but in the form of her life and ROARING HOME is fancied to successfully defy top weight.
Henry Daly’s charge was run down late by course specialist Caughtinyourtrance at Cartmel last time and while up two pounds, is the only one in this contest who looks sure to run her race.
LADY KODIAC - 18:30 Newcastle
She’s three from four on an artificial surface and LADY KODIAC can leave a dull run at Newmarket last time well behind.
James Tate’s charge was all-at-sea on quick ground at the July Course but had previously produced a career-best effort to finish second to Bone Marra at Southwell and is now a pound lower. Harry Davies takes five off in the saddle and the yard are going well right now.

KHAFIZ - 16:25 York (NAP)
He's had more trainers than career wins and only stayed with Ed Bethell for three starts having been picked up for 85,000 guineas. That tells you plenty about KHAFIZ but he did make a promising start for Roger Fell over a mile here in July, finishing right amongst some very solid performers in this grade.
His next run at Chester was perfectly respectable, keeping on after a slow start and finding trouble and I'm prepared to put a line through the latest in the Great St Wilfrid, his first start over six furlongs since debut in 2024.
Handily he's been dropped another 2lb off the back of that to 89 and is potentially well weighted having been beaten half a length over seven furlongs on soft ground off 96 on his final start for Roger Varian. He could just spring a surprise for his current team.
NOVELISTA - 14:55 Fontwell
NOVELISTA disappointed on the flat in May but was reported to have been unsuited by the going so connections will have been happy that the rain has started to fall again.
Rated in the mid-80s on the level, Novelista was sent off at a relatively short price for a useful juvenile hurdle at Ascot but failed to live up to the market billing.
His next run at Southwell was a step in the right direction, finishing two and a half lengths behind Road To Wembley who has won twice since and, perhaps, Novelista can build on that with the stable's runners in fine form generally.
