Raising Sand^p⁶²

Age: 9| Weight: 9-7| J: Nicola Currie| T: J A Osborne| OR: 97| BF| D

18/1

Ascot specialist who was a never-nearer third at that track 62 days ago. Well handicapped but not sure to be as effective away from his usual track.

Form: 80-0683

(18)

Orbaan^t⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: M Harley| T: D O'Meara| OR: 97| CD

14/1

Hasn't had the rub of the green this season, including over C&D last time. Given a chance by the handicapper since but does have stall 18 to overcome.

Form: 0-55060

Billhilly³⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Louis Steward| T: C Fellowes| OR: 97| D

8/1

A real success story for new yard this term dropped to 7f/1m, making it 5 wins for the campaign at Lingfield in August. Effort easily excused (hampered) at Newcastle since, so looks a big player.

Form: 271118

(4)

Shelir^p1²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Jason Watson| T: D O'Meara| OR: 96| D

14/1

Added another near miss to his tally this season when second in 10-runner event at Pontefract (1m) last month, then not seen to best effect at Ayr next time. Not discounted in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 022929

Fame And Acclaim²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Andrea Atzeni| T: J L Eyre| OR: 96| D

6/1

Useful handicapper who would have been closer with a clear run at Ayr last time and is feasibly treated if getting the breaks, so he's one to consider.

Form: 203307

(17)

Hartswood⁷⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: P Hanagan| T: R A Fahey| OR: 95| CD

10/1

C&D winner. Latest win at Newcastle in June. Below form at Goodwood last time and could find this tricky from stall 17.

Form: 930160

(13)

Anythingtoday^p¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: G Boughey| OR: 94| C| D

20/1

Quickly back to his very best after joining this excellent yard, scoring on the July Course, then on the AW at Lingfield in August. Scuppered by draw in Cambridgeshire, so remains of interest.

Form: 293110

(9)

La Trinidad¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 9-4| J: Rowan Scott| T: R Fell & S Murray| OR: 94| BF| CD

8/1

Improved again this term, winning back-to-back course handicaps in June/July. Far from disgraced when midfield in class 2 handicaps back here the last twice, but mark seems about right.

Form: 561196

Another Batt⁷⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Connor Beasley| T: T D Barron| OR: 93| D

22/1

Back to winning ways at Thirsk (7f, heavy) in May but that's comfortably his best effort from 6 outings this term. Needs a 70-day break to have freshened him up.

Form: 061568

(11)

Redarna^p¹⁰^{(ex 4)}

Age: 7| Weight: 9-3| J: Harry Russell⁽³⁾| T: Mrs Dianne Sayer| OR: 89| D

22/1

Added to a fantastic course record when scoring cosily at Ayr 10 days ago and only has a 4-lb penalty to contend with for that. He's not quite so effective at this track, though.

Form: 419371

(19)

Ouzo⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 9-2| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 92| BF| CD

9/1

Arrived with a similar profile prior to winning this off the same mark last year, so one to consider despite a laboured run at Ascot a couple of months ago. The draw hasn't been kind to him, however.

Form: 704587

(16)

Garden Oasis^p²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-1| J: T Eaves| T: T D Easterby| OR: 91| CD

50/1

Added a fourth success to an excellent campaign at Ripon in August but down the field off a career-high mark at Ayr subsequently. Others look better treated.

Form: 210118

(7)

Trais Fluors¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 9-1| J: S De Sousa| T: M R Channon| OR: 91| D

25/1

Back belo last winning mark but hasn't been firing of late, so hard to fancy in a race as competitive as this.

Form: 060050

(10)

King's Knight⁴⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: P J McDonald| T: C Hills| OR: 89

16/1

Latest win at Lingfield in April. Back to his best and did well to split a more prominently ridden pair when second at Chelmsford last time. Big field and strong pace should suit him.

Form: 247602

(8)

Cassy O^b²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-9| J: D Fentiman| T: T D Easterby| OR: 85| D

25/1

Likeable sort who has looked in the handicapper's grip since scoring at Thirsk in August so, while he should give his running, he's vulnerable to better-treated rivals.

Form: 201204

(12)

Alexander James¹¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Lewis Edmunds| T: M Appleby| OR: 85| D

80/1

Winless since 2019, and only ninth of 10 in handicap at Sandown (8f) in June. Hard to make a case for.

Form: 2-06799

(14)

Broken Spear^p⁵⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 8-9| J: Kieran Schofield⁽⁵⁾| T: T Coyle & K Wood| OR: 85| C

22/1

Course winner. Good third of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Claims if a wide draw isn't too much of an inconvenience.

Form: 565833

(15)

Poet's Dawn³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 8-7| J: Ella McCain⁽⁵⁾| T: T D Easterby| OR: 83| C| D

28/1

Turned out quickly when only seventh of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good, 6/1) 35 days ago. Has been given more of a break since so a better showing not ruled out.

Form: 204437

(5)

Challet¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 8-6| J: A Mullen| T: M Dods| OR: 82| CD

7/1

Has enjoyed a productive campaign and pulled out another career-best effort to make all over 7f at this course last time. Hard to imagine he'll be able to pull off the same tactics in a bigger field.

Form: 731401

(6)

Irreverent²²

Age: 5| Weight: 8-6| J: K T O'Neill| T: R A Fahey| OR: 82| D

50/1

Bounced back to form switched to positive tactics when landing handicap at Thirsk last month, then did too much too soon at Ayr 3 days later. It's hard to make all in big fields at this track, though.

BILLHILLY has been most progressive this season and was undone by trouble-in-running at Newcastle last time, so he's worth a chance to get back to winning ways in a race that should be run to suit. Anythingtoday also had an excuse last time, so he's firmly expected to get back on the up, and last year's winner Ouzo can't be ignored despite a wide draw.
