Trailblazer^p⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Joshua Thompson⁽⁵⁾| T: A Nicol| OR: 102

9/1

Longstanding maiden on the Flat but off the mark at fifth attempt in this sphere when landing an 11-runner Perth handicap (2m, good) in July. Plausible excuses for subsequent defeats and one to consider at a track where he has been placed on both previous visits.

Form: 223-177

Foster's Fortune¹⁴⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: Conor Rabbitt| T: C Grant| OR: 97| CD

9/2

Little impact in bumpers and first 3 starts over hurdles but he looked a different proposition when making a winning handicap debut over C&D (good) in May. Though absent since and now 6 lb higher in a stronger race, he has to enter calculations.

Form: 67674-1

Sefton Warrior^p³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: P Hanlon⁽⁶⁾| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 95

9/2

This Irish raider is 0-18 over hurdles but has returned to form with creditable efforts in defeat the last twice, latterly finding just one too good in a Worcester handicap (2½m, good). Dropping back in trip here will be no bad thing and he's likely to be on the premises.

Form: P/P-U342

Thebeautifulgame^p²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: D J Gilligan| T: C Collins| OR: 91

3/1

Dual winner on the Flat but she's 0-9 over hurdles and while she has made the frame in handicaps at Downpatrick and Kilbeggan on her last 2 starts, others make more appeal for win purposes here.

Form: 000034

Treasured Company³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Peter Kavanagh| T: Mrs S J Smith| OR: 84| CD

10/3

Back-to-back winner in 2021, including over this C&D. Lightly-raced and largely below that level since but he turned a corner when striking off a reduced mark at Cartmel (17.2f, soft) last time and he remains on a workable mark back up 7 lb.

Form: 3-94081

Barranco^h1²⁷⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Joe Williamson| T: H Hogarth| OR: 82

40/1

Bumper winner for Stuart Crawford in 2021 but lightly-raced since and hasn't shown much in 3 starts for present yard. Now tried in a hood.

Form: 0045/PP-

Milajess^t,v¹¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Emma Smith-Chaston⁽³⁾| T: Micky Hammond| OR: 82

6/1

Placed for a second time since joining this yard when second of 11 at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) when last seen in June. Remains on a good mark following a 1 lb nudge and repeat of that will give her an each-way chance.

Form: 0347-92

Check My Pulse^t,v⁹³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-6| J: Aaron Anderson| T: R Menzies| OR: 80

18/1

Winless since 2022 and he failed to build on reappearance third when only sixth in handicap chase at Cartmel (17.3f, good to soft) on latest appearance at the end of June. Opposable back over hurdles.

Form: 5434-36

Cawthorne Cracker^t²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Toby Wynne⁽³⁾| T: O Greenall & J Guerriero| OR: 80| DWS

16/1

Successful at Stratford in June but it's been downhill all the way since and hopes pinned on recent wind op (second time he's undergone the procedure) sparking a return to form.

Form: P-15008

Cofficionado^h1,t²⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-3| J: Charlie Maggs⁽⁶⁾| T: D McCain Jnr| OR: 78

10/1

On the back of a breathing operation he found only one too good on handicap debut at Market Rasen in May. Following that with a couple of low-key efforts but better the last twice, albeit without matching the form of the aforementioned Market Rasen run. Sports a first-time hood here.

Form: 35-2855

Milan Echo³⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-2| J: Beau Morgan| T: D Brooke| OR: 74

18/1

Not a lost cause judged on bits and pieces of form but he hasn't shown much in 4 runs so far this year.

Form: 0457-PP

Forecasts

Foster's Fortune (3/1), Sefton Warrior (10/3), Treasured Company (4/1), Milajess (6/1), Thebeautifulgame (7/1), Cofficionado (10/1), Check My Pulse (14/1), Trailblazer (16/1), Cawthorne Cracker (33/1), Milan Echo (50/1), Barranco (100/1)

The vote goes to TRAILBLAZER, who opened his account at Perth during the summer and, now back on better ground and over this optimum trip, the 5-y-o is taken to resume winning ways. Treasured Company isn't certain to be in the same form nor mood as when scoring at Cartmel last time but will be a danger to all if he's again in the groove, while Sefton Warrior is third choice ahead of Foster's Fortune and Milajess.
