Selected odds by:

Changing The Guard^t⁴¹

Age: 11| Weight: 11-12| J: T Dowling⁽⁷⁾| T: F Brennan| OR: 100

16/1

Returned to fences and form when finishing 2L second over an extended 2m at Newton Abbot (good-to-soft) last time out. Races off the same mark today and one to note in this contest.

Form: 2-83582

Rakaia Rosa¹¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Dave Crosse| T: D L Williams| OR: 99

20/1

Usually leads and made a winning debut for this yard in a three runner Towcester (2m4f, good-to-firm) contest in May. Disappointing since but back down to her last winning mark with the drop in trip likely to suit also.

Form: P-13P36

Saffron Prince²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Daniel Hiskett⁽⁵⁾| T: D G Bridgwater| OR: 97

7/1

Saw off Changing The Guard over an extended 2m at Newton Abbot (good-to-soft) on his penultimate outing but finished a well held third off this mark over C&D subsequently. Likely to prefer softer ground than is forecast today.

Form: 444613

Code Of Law²⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: N D Fehily| T: N P Mulholland| OR: 96| CD

6/5

Successful for the first time in a 15 race career when an impressive winner over C&D on good-to-firm ground last month. Raised 7lb by the handicapper for that success and a leading contender with similar ground conditions forecast today.

Form: 2-34P71

Keppel Isle²⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: J E Moore| T: Mrs L J Mongan| OR: 95| D

20/1

Disappointing in four starts since winning at Kempton (2m2f, good) in May last year. Making just his second appearance of the year when pulling up behind Code Of Law over C&D last time out and others make more appeal.

Form: 7/1567-P

Humbel Ben^p⁴¹

Age: 14| Weight: 11-4| J: T Scudamore| T: A E Jones| OR: 92| C| D

9/1

Winner of his first two outings since rejoining this yard around this time last year and made a satisfactory return when third to Saffron Prince at Newton Abbot (good-to-soft) in July. Market likely to prove the best guide as to expectations today.

Form: 3/3711-3

Spiritofchartwell⁹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: Miss K Lyons⁽⁷⁾| T: P York| OR: 82

16/1

Runner-up off a 3lb higher mark over C&D on good ground two years ago but sole success since came in an Intermediate point-to-point at Charing (good-to-firm) in April. Well held in that sphere last time out and work to do today.

Form: 23/412-5

Houseparty^p,t²⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Tabitha Worsley⁽⁷⁾| T: N J Gifford| OR: 73| CD

6/1

Ran well on his return to rules racing when beaten 10L by Code Of Law over C&D when wearing a tongue tie for the first time last month. Races from 1lb out of the weights and amateur rider has won on him over C&D in the past.

Form: U532P-2

Alottarain^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Michael Heard⁽⁵⁾| T: J W Mullins| OR: 71

11/1

Won just one of her 27 races to date and well held over fences the last twice. Has won off a higher mark over hurdles but others make more appeal racing from out of the handicap today.

Form: 3-34459

Forecasts

Code Of Law (6/5), Houseparty (6/1), Saffron Prince (7/1), Humbel Ben (9/1), Alottarain (11/1), Spiritofchartwell (16/1), Changing The Guard (16/1), Rakaia Rosa (20/1), Keppel Isle (20/1)

CODE OF LAW impressed when winning over C&D last month and he can register a second C&D victory with forecast ground conditions similar to those which he experienced on that occasion. The runner-up that day Houseparty has his regular jockey on board once more and they can finish third off a light weight while top weight Changing The Guard can follow up his solid effort last time out by claiming third today.
