Brasil Power^p,t⁶⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Callum Shepherd| T: G Boughey| OR: 81

16/1

3-timer winner on all-weather who ran respectably when fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 11/2) 66 days ago. Cheekpieces back on for this return turf.

Form: 3517-25

Master Of Combat¹¹⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Andrea Pinna⁽⁷⁾| T: K Frost| OR: 80| D

40/1

In good form on the all-weather during the winter but it remains to be seen if he's able to transfer that to turf.

Form: 538333

Barley^p²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 80| D

9/1

Quirky but capitalised on a career-low mark at Carlisle in June and confirmed his return to form when second back there (7.8f, good) 3 weeks ago, caught further back than ideal. It remains to be seen how long he holds his form, though.

Form: 304012

Eagle Day²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 9-8| J: P J McDonald| T: P D Evans| OR: 79| D

9/1

Back on track when taking 7-runner handicap at Haydock (8f, firm) last month and followed up back on all-weather at Chelmsford (8f) last time. On a career-high mark now but still warrants respect in his bid for the hat-trick.

Theme Park¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Rowan Scott| T: N Tinkler| OR: 78

9/2

Twelve runs since last win in 2022 but ran respectably when fifth of 15 in handicap at this course (10.2f, good to soft, 18/1) 15 days ago. Back down in trip.

Form: 26-0505

Boy Douglas⁴²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Connor Beasley| T: M Dods| OR: 78| BF| D

9/2

Confirmed the promise of his reappearance in going one better at Ayr (8f, good) in June, edging ahead close home. Ran at least as well when second of 14 here (8.8f) last time, albeit better placed than most. Remains low mileage and could still have a bit more to offer.

Siam Fox^p1²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 9-7| J: C Lee| T: K Frost| OR: 78| D

20/1

Belatedly off the mark at Windsor (8.1f) in June and creditable efforts both outings since.

Form: 5-89147

Zozimus^p⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 9-6| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 77| BF| D

4/1

Not the easiest to win with but wasn't seen to best effect when fourth of 7 in handicap (5/2) at Pontefract (8f, good) 8 days ago, left with too much to do. Cheekpieces back on and expected to be on the premises.

Form: 422464

Power Of Gold¹⁹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: T Eaves| T: J & S Quinn| OR: 76| D

33/1

Went backwards from a promising stable debut when only seventh of 10 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) when last seen 6 months ago. Needs to get back on track after a break but has gone well fresh before.

Form: 44786-7

(8)

Al Marmar³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: O J Orr| T: G Tutty| OR: 76| D

9/1

Slipped to a good mark and stepped up on stable debut when third at Doncaster (1m) in June. Shaped similarly at Redcar subsequently and remains one to bear in mind.

Form: 800836

Hortzadar¹²

Age: 9| Weight: 9-4| J: R Kingscote| T: D O'Meara| OR: 75| D

33/1

Found only a much younger rival too good for the second start in succession at Ripon (9.8f) in June. A shade disappointing at Ayr last time but is on a fair mark and could bounce back.

Form: 887227

(16)

Berkshire Phantom^b¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-1| J: Billy Garritty| T: Fionn McSharry| OR: 72| BF| D

40/1

Matched the pick of his all-weather form to record a first success on turf at Chester in June. Well held back there 15 days ago but reportedly boiled over in preliminaries.

Form: 423810

Speriamo²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: A J Farragher| T: P J McBride| OR: 71| D

25/1

Has dipped 3 lb below her last winning mark but is struggling for form this season, finishing last of 5 at Newmarket 4 weeks ago.

Form: 37-4085

English Spirit¹⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 8-10| J: Aidan Keeley⁽³⁾| T: H Main| OR: 67

40/1

Resumed winning ways in game fashion at Wolverhampton in January. Proved to a disappointment next time but can have a line put through his most recent outing given he was badly hampered around 1f out. Returns to turf after a break now.

Form: 1-31558

My Harrison George^p¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 8-8| J: A Mullen| T: R A Fahey| OR: 65| D

12/1

Confirmed promise of last run when opening his account for the season in 9-runner handicap at Ayr (8f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Steps back up in grade but remains unexposed at this trip.

Forecasts

Zozimus (4/1), Theme Park (9/2), Boy Douglas (9/2), Barley (9/1), Al Marmar (9/1), Eagle Day (9/1), War Chant (10/1), My Harrison George (12/1), Brasil Power (16/1), Siam Fox (20/1), Speriamo (25/1), Hortzadar (33/1), Power Of Gold (33/1), English Spirit (40/1), Berkshire Phantom (40/1), Master Of Combat (40/1)

ZOZIMUS is unquestionably hard to win with, but he wasn't seen to best effect at Pontefract on his most recent outing and had been properly banging on the door earlier in the year, so he's worth one more chance to shed a long losing run. Boy Douglas is building up a solid profile now that he's getting a clear run at his racing and ought to go well once again, with Al Marmar another to bear in mind having been shaping up well for his new yard of late.
