Rattled off a hat-trick earlier in the year but has struggled since dropped into tougher races. Handicapper may have his measure for now.

13/8
Won a maiden at Leicester earlier in the year and running well in defeat on his last couple of starts. Only just touched off at Chelmsford last time and shapes like this step up in trip will suit.

9/2
Form of his Leicester win in June has been well advertised by runner-up Rhosneigr and bounced back from a disappointing run at Group level when a winner at Newmarket last time out. Step up in trip will suit but he's unproven on softer ground.

9/2
Impressive when winning on debut and back on track with a win at Chepstow last time out. Looks a little quirky (can over-race and flashed tail last time) but more improvement to come and handicap mark looks fair.

7/2
Beaten by Maksab earlier in the year but has improved since and arrives in search of a hat-trick after an impressive win at Haydock. Seemingly enjoy some cut in the ground so any rain would be a bonus and respected up 6lb for that latest effort.

Ventura Dragon23
Age: 2|  Weight: 8-8| J: Barry McHugh| T: R A Fahey| OR:  80
10/1
Heavy ground winner of a three-runner affair at Ffos Las two starts back but beaten out of sight at York last time. Step back up in trip should suit and should run well if he can bounce back.

Forecasts

Westerland (13/8), Rhosneigr (7/2), Regimented (9/2), Maksab (9/2), Ventura Dragon (10/1), Ventura Knight (16/1)

Verdict

REGIMENTED gives the impression there's plenty more to come from him and he could be hard to beat if he can iron out his quirks. Rhosneigr was impressive last time out and arrives here in a hat-trick bid while Westerland gives the impression he'll appreciate this step up in trip.
