Back to his best for his new yard when ½-length second of 6 to Waiting All Night in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 15 days ago. Must enter calculations with cheekpieces added.

Form: 2443-92

Glenfinnan²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-12| J: Oisin Murphy| T: M Dods| OR: 93| D

13/2

Got off the mark for new yard at Ascot (6f) in May also fifth in the Wokingham there. Well held in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time so needs to get back on track.

Accidental Agent^b¹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 9-10| J: Mia Nicholls⁽⁵⁾| T: Eve Johnson Houghton| OR: 91| D

28/1

It's now 16 runs since his last win in 2022 and only eighth of 11 in handicap (33/1) at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Others are preferred.

Form: 05577-8

Havana Blue¹⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-7| J: Ryan Sexton| T: Miss J A Camacho| OR: 88| D

10/1

Capitalised on a reduced mark when landing 7-runner handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 17 days ago, always well positioned. Up 4 lb in tougher race but he still can't be discounted.

Form: 867651

(7)

Waiting All Night^p¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: N Callan| T: R Spencer| OR: 86| D

7/1

Made it two wins in his last three runs in 6-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 15 days ago by ½ length from Star of Orion. Not taken lightly in his current mood despite a 4 lb rise.

Form: 524121

Spanish Blaze¹⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 9-1| J: T E Whelan| T: M P Tregoning| OR: 87| CD

7/2

C&D winner in June and in good form since, fifth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Can give another good account off the same mark.

Form: 0-61235

Sir Les Patterson⁷²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-0| J: Billy Loughnane| T: Harry Eustace| OR: 86| D

12/1

Won a pair of 7f AW novices but dropped away tamely when last of 12 in the Silver Bowl at Haydock on his turf/handicap debut in May. Fared no better in the Britannia at Royal Ascot, so he needs to get back on track having been gelded since last seen.

Form: 31-100

Lyndon B^p¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 8-13| J: Callum Shepherd| T: J L Flint| OR: 80| C| D

5/1

It's now 12 runs since his last win in 2022 but he was unlucky when second of 15 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago, finishing well after meeting trouble. Raised 3 lb for that but it shouldn't prevent him going well.

Form: 605452

(10)

Feel The Need⁷⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Rossa Ryan| T: M Herrington| OR: 80| BF| D

7/1

Resumed winning ways at York in May and backed it up with a very good second of 16 there following month. Up 2 lb but he can go well again after a break.

Form: 5-56212

(9)

Mr Baloo⁹⁹

Age: 3| Weight: 8-11| J: W Buick| T: R Hannon| OR: 83| D

17/2

Has raised his game this season, bagging 7f/1m handicaps at Kempton and a solid fifth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good) when last seen out in May. One to consider after a break.

Form: 13-1415

Forecasts

Spanish Blaze (7/2), Lyndon B (5/1), Glenfinnan (13/2), Waiting All Night (7/1), Feel The Need (7/1), Mr Baloo (17/2), Havana Blue (10/1), Star Of Orion (10/1), Sir Les Patterson (12/1), Accidental Agent (28/1)

This is wide open but LYNDON B signalled he's ready to go in again when an unlucky Newbury second last time out so edges the vote. Waiting All Night comes here in top form so heads the list of dangers, although Star of Orion, Feel The Need and Havana Blue all bring solid credentials too. Mr Baloo completes the shortlist.
