10/3
Six-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 16 runs this year. Latest win here in June. Last of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 11/4) 7 days ago, though that run easy to excuse given he was badly hampered.

Won 9-runner minor event at Thirsk (6f, good to firm, 8/1) 13 days ago, comfortably having gone with much more zest. Now needs to back that up returned to handicap company/AW.

Good second of 12 in handicap (7/1) at this C&D 9 days ago, travelling with plenty of purpose. Same mark here so a must for the shortlist.

28/1
First run since leaving Roger Fell & Sean Murray and produced a career best in first-time cheekpieces when winning 7-runner minor event at Catterick (7f, good) 15 days ago, just holding on. Ought to be a factor again back in a handicap.

6/1
C&D winner. Shaped quite well at Pontefract and sent off favourite last time, only to finish seventh of 10 in minor event at Catterick (7f, good) 15 days ago. Blinkers back on and assessor given him a major chance.

Forecasts

Missmimi (3/1), Fircombe Hall (10/3), Variety Island (6/1), Sydney Bay (7/1), Louella (7/1), She'sashambles (12/1), Secret Daay (14/1), Evoluir (16/1), Lil Wade (22/1), Too Much Too Young (28/1)

Verdict

VARIETY ISLAND doesn't win too often but he shaped nicely on his penultimate start and the handicapper has given him every chance dropping him to this career-low mark. He therefore gets the tentative nod in favour of Missmimi and Too Much Too Young.
