Age: 9| Weight: 9-10| J: Oliver Searle⁽⁵⁾| T: B R Millman| OR: 70| CD

11/2

C&D winner. Latest win at Salisbury in August. Good second of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 16/1) 13 days ago, collared line. One to consider.

10/3

Latest win over C&D in August. Good second of 12 in handicap (40/1) at Pontefract (8f, good to firm) 10 days ago, running on to be nearest at the finish. One of the likelier types returned to this shorter trip.

Shalaa Asker^p,t²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 9-9| J: Hollie Doyle| T: A Keatley| OR: 69| C| D

4/1

Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Bit below form fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (6.1f, 5/1) 25 days ago, plugging on final 1f. Cheekpieces/tongue tie go back on and he's lurking on a handy mark if putting it all together.

Travis^v1²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-9| J: S H James| T: G A Harker| OR: 72

10/1

Winner at Pontefract in June. 22/1, fifteenth of 18 in handicap at York (6f, soft) 21 days ago, weakening 2f out. Remains unexposed on an artificial surface and no surprise to see him bounce back with a visor now the headgear of choice.

Form: 128450

King David²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-8| J: Harry Davies| T: M Botti| OR: 71| D

7/2

Lightly-raced winner. 7/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) 25 days ago, driven out. Remains less exposed than most and he could yet have more to offer. Player.

22/1

Course winner. Latest win at Ayr in July. 15/2, eighth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 43 days ago, plugging on without threatening. Others appeal more at present.

Vecchio¹⁶⁷

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: D Swift| T: S Dixon| OR: 65

50/1

Fairly useful maiden for Freddie & Martyn Meade but matched that level in trio of starts for present stable, well held twelfth of 14 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good) back in April. Needs to hit the ground running back from a break.

Form: 4/47-870

No Nay Nicki²³

Age: 5| Weight: 9-5| J: Billy Garritty| T: R A Fahey| OR: 65| D

9/1

9/2, not seen to best effect once more when eighth of 12 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good) 23 days ago, getting gap over 1f out but no extra last ½f. Mark has eased further and she's not one to write off.

Form: 660608

Embarked^b³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 63| D

13/2

Acquitted himself well in a handful of starts for new yard prior to a lesser display when ninth of 12 in handicap (12/1) at this course (8.1f) 3 days ago. Rates a likely type to bounce back and both previous victories have come at this trip. Blinkers back on.

Theotherside¹⁷⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 8-11| J: Mikkel Mortensen⁽⁵⁾| T: S Dixon| OR: 57

200/1

Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Fourth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) in April. Feasible to think this first start for 170 days will be needed.

Form: 90-5484

(3)

Heavenly Fire^h¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Joey Haynes| T: S Dixon| OR: 56

150/1

33/1, last of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 17 days ago, weakening and heavily eased off. Percentage call to look elsewhere on the back of his last 2 efforts.

Forecasts

Petra Celera (10/3), King David (7/2), Shalaa Asker (4/1), Airshow (11/2), Embarked (13/2), Flowstate (8/1), No Nay Nicki (9/1), Travis (10/1), Biplane (22/1), Vecchio (50/1), Heavenly Fire (150/1), Theotherside (200/1)

C&D winner PETRA CELERA produced another sound effort and was beaten only by one taking a significant drop in class at Pontefract (1m) 10 days ago. The return to this trip will hold no fears and she's one of the likelier types with Billy Loughnane in the plate. Kempton-scorer King David is easily one of the least exposed and feared along with Airshow. Shalaa Asker is another to keep an eye on.
