Divine Call^p²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 9-9| J: L Morris| T: J M Bradley| OR: 44| D

16/1

Winner of nine races but has failed to make the frame in his last 11 starts. Official ratings suggest he has a mountain to climb on today's terms and stable are 1-35 in the last 56 days.

Form: 599008

Head Space¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Jason Watson⁽⁷⁾| T: B Barr| OR: 55| D

33/1

Veteran of over 100 races which have so far yielded nine victories. Has finished last on his three most recent starts and it is hard to envisage the dramatic turnaround that is needed.

Form: 434060

Red Trooper^h1¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: P Cosgrave| T: George Baker| OR: 74| BF

6/4

Sent off favourite for a similar event last time when the ground may have been against him. Lightly raced and hood applied for the first time. Claims on his AW form if coping with the drop to 6f.

Form: 315-56

Malcolm The Pug¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Hollie Doyle⁽³⁾| T: R Hannon| OR: 64

8/11

Nine-race maiden who drops to plating class for the first time. This looks a better than average race for it's type and he has work to do on these terms. However, he runs to a consistent level and the return to 6f is a plus.

33/1

Yet to make the frame in eight starts and form has been in steep decline lately. Faces a stiff task based on official ratings.

Forecasts

Malcolm The Pug (8/11), Zanetto (5/6), Red Trooper (6/4), Tifl (12/1), Divine Call (16/1), Fever Few (16/1), Head Space (33/1), Verdi (33/1)

A difficult race to open the card with question marks against Zanetto and Fever Few on current form. Tifl faces a stiffer task than he faced when scoring narrowly on Monday but Malcolm The Pug looks interesting at this level based on his close fourth at Chepstow in July. RED TROOPER was well supported in similar company last time but the slower ground probably turned against him. Lightly raced and with a hood fitted for the first time he is taken to recover those recent losses.
