Fast Dancer¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: David Egan⁽³⁾| T: J Tuite| OR: 85| BF

10/1

Ended a long losing run at Bath earlier in the season and not beaten far at Newbury last time out. Up another 2lb for that won't help and never scored off a mark this high but assistance of a promising 3lb claimer softens the blow a little.

New Agenda^h¹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: A Kirby| T: P R Webber| OR: 85

9/1

Latest win came over hurdles but has won on the Flat at Wolverhampton and not beaten far at Windsor last time out on return to the level. 3lb rise for that looks harsh but not entirely exposed and should run well again.

Form: 4315-32

Vernatti⁴⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: Rob Hornby| T: Mrs P Sly| OR: 80| D

16/1

Back-to-back win in May but tailed off on return at Doncaster last time out. May come on for that effort and looked a smart prospect prior to that. Should run well if she bounces back.

Form: 49-2117

Swilly Sunset²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: S De Sousa| T: A Carson| OR: 80| D

13/2

Gained his first win since 2015 at Yarmouth in June and not looked back since, arriving here in bid for a five-timer. Doesn't always look entirely straightforward but has the right man in the saddle for the job and should run well again only up 3lb.

Form: 431111

Zambeasy³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-8| J: Fran Berry| T: P Hide| OR: 80| CD

20/1

Not won since April 2016 but he is a C&D winner and he wasn't beaten far at Windsor two starts back. Disappointing last time at Ascot and he's a risky proposition.

Form: 868-827

Top Beak^t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Charlie Bennett⁽³⁾| T: M J Attwater| OR: 79

33/1

Not won since winning on debut and unplaced on each of his last five starts including yard debut last time out. Hard to fancy in current form in a competitive contest such as this.

Form: 307936

Bedouin^b²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: J P Spencer| T: L M Cumani| OR: 84| D

6/1

Won two of his last three starts but can be very slowly away. Likely to be played late here with a fair amount of pace on and probably a little reliant on them going too quick up front. Forced to carry 6lb more and looks a little vulnerable.

Form: 246141

Parish Boy¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle⁽³⁾| T: D Loughnane| OR: 78

16/1

Won a Listed contest at Leopardstown back in 2014, getting the better of Order Of St George but not won since. Ran well at Doncaster three starts back but he looks an awkward ride and he can be slowly away. Comes with risks attached.

Form: 759273

Glorious Forever^v²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: P Cosgrave| T: E Walker| OR: 84

4/1

Won a maiden at Windsor on final start of 2016 but has been a little disappointing this campaign. Ran okay over C&D in June and still on that same mark so can't be dismissed after finishing runner-up at Haydock last time.

Form: 1-20342

(5)

Mikmak^p¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: George Wood⁽³⁾| T: W R Muir| OR: 77

25/1

Not won since his maiden winner in August 2015 and losing run stretched to 17 after a poor effort at Newbury. Doesn't look a straightforward sort and can race keenly so promising claimer needs to be at his best if he's to get his head in front.

Form: 257528

Unison²³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Ryan Tate| T: J Scott| OR: 76| C| D

20/1

Better last time out when fourth here and ran some nice races over hurdles during the winter; prefers soft ground so any rain would be a major boost to his chances.

Form: 5118-04

Rosarno^b,t⁵⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Callum Shepherd⁽³⁾| T: C Hills| OR: 78

9/1

Won his maiden at Newbury last year but very disappointing this campaign and ruined his own chance on all three occasions with stalls antics and over-racing. Best watched for now.

Form: 51-046

Blushing Red¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-12| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: E A L Dunlop| OR: 76| D

8/1

Newcastle maiden winner earlier in the year and back to form with a win at Chepstow last time out. This looks more competitive but seemingly the first-string on jockey bookings and 3lb rise for latest win doesn't look excessive.

Forecasts

Glorious Forever (4/1), Bedouin (6/1), Swilly Sunset (13/2), Blushing Red (8/1), New Agenda (9/1), Rosarno (9/1), Fast Dancer (10/1), Vernatti (16/1), Parish Boy (16/1), Zambeasy (20/1), Unison (20/1), Breden (20/1), Mikmak (25/1), Top Beak (33/1)

NEW AGENDA is an interesting runner, arriving with a less exposed profile than most and he could prove hard to peg back if he can get an uncontested lead. Swilly Sunset has to be of interest in the run of form he's in and he's certainly not discounted in a bid for a five-timer. Unison and Blushing Red are two more with live chances, on decent handicap marks.
