Rousay³³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-2| J: S M Levey| T: R Hannon| OR: 96| D

28/1

Listed winner at Salisbury last summer and ran well when fourth at that level at Kempton final 3-y-o start. However, failed to come on for her reappearance when down the field in Group 3 at Newcastle in June. Second in this race a year ago, but has work to do this time around.

Form: 1274-48

Persist³²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Tom Marquand| T: W J Haggas| OR: 86| D

9/1

Won twice last season, with her second success in handicap at Haydock (10.2f) in September. Form of her sixth at Newmarket next time working out well, but after 9 months off she was typically slowly away when below form at Newcastle a month ago. Needs to step forward from her return.

Form: 72216-6

There's The Door¹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-3| J: R Kingscote| T: P D Evans| OR: 91| D

6/1

Stepped up on her juvenile form when readily landing a Doncaster handicap (10.2f) in April and confirmed her effectiveness on testing ground when second in Cheshire Oaks (11.3f) next time. Ran creditably back in handicap company 19 day ago, but will need to find more again.

Form: 42-1273

La Isla Mujeres¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: Hector Crouch| T: R M Beckett| OR: 89| D

7/4

Off the mark at Kempton (11f) in June and improved further when following up in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f) 18 days ago, leading again over 2f out and forging clear. Not taken lightly with any rain in her favour.

Form: 4-311

Chips And Rice²²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-12| J: Jim Crowley| T: J R Fanshawe| OR: 78| D

10/1

Having made a winning seasonal/stable debut at Lingfield (10f) in April, got back on the up when scoring readily at Brighton 22 days ago. However, this is a much tougher task as she goes up in grade.

Form: 42-1351

Value Added²²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: N Callan| T: R Hughes| OR: 85

9/1

Runner-up to Decoration at Windsor before going one better in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 22 days ago, having the run of the race when seeing off the challenge of Queen Regent. May do better still, but has the widest draw to overcome.

Form: 2-521

In These Shoes⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-9| J: J Fanning| T: C Johnston| OR: 83

20/1

After 6 months off, gained a first handicap success at Beverley (7.4f) in April and ran at least as well when runner-up at Newmarket (7f) in July. Produced a rare below-par effort 9 days ago, but no surprise to see her bounce back as she goes up in trip.

Decoration⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-8| J: David Egan| T: R Varian| OR: 82| BF| D

6/1

Has improved with each start, getting off the mark at the third atttempt in a Windsor maiden (10f) with Value Added in second. Beaten only by another progessive type at the same C&D on handicap debut 9 days ago, so she can resume winning ways with more still to offer.

Form: 5-412

Therapist¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: William Cox| T: A M Balding| OR: 81| D

10/1

Switched to handicap company, showed improved form when gaining a first success at Newmarket (10f) in July. Shaped well upped in grade when third at the same C&D 12 days ago, edged out only late on by a pair ridden more patiently. Can give another good account.

Form: 32-3513

Never Ending⁴⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 8-6| J: K T O'Neill| T: J & T Gosden| OR: 80| C

10/1

Built on the promise of her first 2 starts when winning minor event at this course (1m) in June, despite still looking green under pressure. However, unable to find any further progress when fifth of 7 on handicap debut at Newmarket (10f) later the same month.

Form: 4-215

Forecasts

La Isla Mujeres (7/4), There's The Door (6/1), Queen Regent (6/1), Decoration (6/1), Persist (9/1), Value Added (9/1), Never Ending (10/1), Chips And Rice (10/1), Therapist (10/1), Sirona (12/1), In These Shoes (20/1), Rousay (28/1)

DECORATION has been going the right way in each of her 4 starts so far, only narrowly beaten by another improver at Windsor 9 days ago, so she can continue her progress to gain a first handicap success. Heading the list of dangers is La Isla Mujeres, whose trainer Ralph Beckett has won this race twice in the last 3 years, while Queen Regent also merits consideration.
