Arctic Mountain⁶⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: J Fanning| T: S bin Suroor| OR: 91| BF

5/1

Won 7-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) in June that worked out. Off just 6 days and in first-time cheekpieces, 13/8, possibly found race coming too soon when well beaten at York 60 days ago (disqualified after losing weight cloth when saddle slipped over 2f out). 6 lb higher now.

Theoryofeverything¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-13| J: D Tudhope| T: D O'Meara| OR: 87

9/2

Useful 3-y-o for the Gosden stable and shaping well enough for new yard this term, possibly needing the run after 10 weeks off/breathing op when fifth of 6 in handicap at Chester (10.3f, good, 4/1) 17 days ago. One to consider dropped 3 lb.

Form: 83-4505

Paddy The Squire^t³⁵⁴

17/2

Useful 3-y-o. Won at Ayr last July and ran well in hot handicap (12.1f, good to soft) here when last seen 11 months ago. Has had another breathing operation. Could have more to offer for in-form yard this term and one to consider.

Winner at Nottingham in June. 11/4 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 8 in handicap at Sandown (8f, good) 18 days ago. Can make presence felt.

Age: 7| Weight: 9-4| J: Sam Feilden⁽⁷⁾| T: K R Burke| OR: 78

16/1

Won 3 times last season and ran well after 8 months off at Pontefract. Not so good when fifth of 6 in handicap at this course (8.3f, good to firm, 9/2) 26 days ago.

Lunario^b,t¹⁰

10/1

Followed up Newmarket success and career best when winning 7-runner handicap (11/4) at this course (8.3f, good to firm) 10 days ago, again battling well. Up in class but can't be dismissed in hat-trick bid.

Bubbles Wonky²³

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: D Allan| T: T D Easterby| OR: 83| BF

8/1

Progressive in novice events over 7f but his mark has looked on the high side, last of 5 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to firm, 2/1) 23 days ago. Others have achieved more.

Form: 41-2045

Good Morning Alex⁶⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Connor Beasley| T: T D Barron| OR: 82| CD

4/1

5 wins from 7 runs this year. 9/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 68 days ago, making all from 2 subsequent winners. Can improve further and good chance in bid for 4-timer up in class.

Latest win at Carlisle in July. Fourth of 5 in handicap (5/1) at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Needs more.

Forecasts

Good Morning Alex (4/1), Theoryofeverything (9/2), Arctic Mountain (5/1), Indemnity (11/2), Giselles Defence (6/1), Bubbles Wonky (8/1), Paddy The Squire (17/2), Lunario (10/1), Classy Boy (12/1), Tele Red (16/1), Stand Strong (25/1)

A useful handicap that can see 3-y-o GOOD MORNING ALEX make it 3 wins in a row at Hamilton. He's going from strength to strength, destroying his rivals from the front here the last twice, and can strike again. The returning Paddy The Squire is interesting, while Theoryofeverything and the thriving Giselles Defence can also go well.
