2/1
Improving sort who scored at Ascot in July and backed it up with a solid showing in a 'Racing League' handicap at Southwell last time. Promises to be well suited by this distance and is worth chancing.

Mid-division in one of the hottest novices of the year on his 1m Newmarket debut in June and landed the odds in a 1m Chelmsford maiden 8 weeks later. Not disgraced at Goodwood since and drops back in trip for handicap debut.

Likeable type who added to an excellent strike rate this year when grinding out another success at Kempton last month. Should be on the premises again.

Has thrived this year, completing the four-timer when dead-heating at Kempton (1m) in June. Winning run came to an end at same course last time but he's liable to give another good account.

Has few miles on the clock and upped his game significantly when scoring easily despite a slow start at Haydock 3 months ago. Off since but capable of better still.

Narrowly opened account in a novice event at Goodwood (8f) in June but not much of a threat since and others look better treated.

Lightly raced gelding who left previous efforts behind when off the mark in a 9-runner contest at Kempton a month ago. Could do better again switched to turf.

Has run respectably the last twice and is on a fair mark but he's likely to find this too competitive.

Forecasts

Kodi Lion (2/1), Atlantic Gamble (7/2), Urban Lion (7/2), Phoenix Passion (11/2), Retracement (13/2), Great Chieftain (13/2), Tribal Chief (7/1), The Ice Phoenix (10/1), Thorntonledale Max (11/1), Mirador (14/1), Flag Of Love (16/1), Sedgemoor (18/1), Dramatic Effect (22/1), Aljezur (33/1)

Verdict

KODI LION is on the up and shaped well in a competitive event at Southwell last time, so he's worth a chance to defy this mark with the 1m trip sure to suit. Great Chieftain should be on the premises and Sedgemoor needs respecting based on the big impression he made at Haydock 3 months ago.
