Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: S M Levey| T: S C Williams| OR: 77| C

5/2

Winner over 1m at Chelmsford last time out. Up 4lb and yet to win over further but worth another attempt at this longer trip.

4/1

Winner at Kempton two starts ago before running down the field at a higher level than this at Chelmsford last time out. Others arrive here off the back of more promising performances.

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: Harrison Shaw⁽⁷⁾| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 72| D

33/1

Winner at Leicester earlier in the year but not so good in a few runs since and now off since August; best watched on this return to the racecourse.

Enigmatic⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: D C Costello| T: J A Osborne| OR: 73| C

4/1

Lightly-raced type who out-ran his odds on handicap debut at Newcastle last time. Highly progressive and could find further progress now stepping up in trip on a surface that he enjoys.

Form: 4-112

Sea Dweller⁷⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: L Morris| T: A Carson| OR: 67

22/1

Five-race maiden who ran poorly on her last start at Beverley in September, but that was her only run since February so may have had issues. Still has too many questions to answer for now.

Form: 22-335

Mullarkey²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Josephine Gordon| T: J R Best| OR: 68| D

4/1

Only win came over this trip but 1/17 overall and this is tougher than the race he finished third in over the same trip at Chelmsford last time out.

Form: 557573

Pink Ribbon^p¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-11| J: Mitch Godwin⁽³⁾| T: S Kirk| OR: 63| D

10/1

Won over a similar trip to this at Wolverhampton last time out. Escapes a penalty in this slightly deeper race, and needs considering with his rider claiming 3lb.

Form: 457218

Fintech^t⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: Nicola Currie⁽⁷⁾| T: P Hide| OR: 62

8/1

Ran very well in second at Chelmsford last time when clearly appreciating what was a longer trip than he had been used to (down the field on Tapeta on his penultimate start). Still needs to find improvement to get involved in this.

Forecasts

Pinnata (5/2), Mullarkey (4/1), Glendun (4/1), Enigmatic (4/1), The Eagle's Nest (9/2), Fintech (8/1), Pink Ribbon (10/1), The Gay Cavalier (16/1), Sea Dweller (22/1), Pivotman (33/1)

The improving ENIGMATIC is the obvious answer here. Jamie Osborne's charge out-ran his odds to finish second on handicap debut last time, and off the same mark this two time winners looks likely to pick up a third carer victory over a trip which obviously suits him very well. Recent winners Pink Ribbon and The Eagle's Nest look the obvious dangers in a race which is fairly high quality for the grade.
